You might of seen the news going round:
As part of 40 years of Transformers the latest HASLAB project is none other than R.I.D. (2000)'s Omega Prime! That's Both Fire Convoy and Ultra Magnus and his large double gatlin gun - which is now a Transformer, Bluebolt. There have been some speculation if this is just a re-issue with the gun as a new figure, which it pretty what it much looked like.
HOWEVER, TODAY TFW2005 have more details, inclusing changes:
*Design focused on stability in Super mode. He is able to support all his combinations now.
*Optimus Prime is bigger than his original toy. Looks quite big compared to recent retail toys.
*Base mode is compatible with Titan Masters. It has some spaces to sit them.
*Super Mode has got improved articulation, more noticeable in the ankles. He’s about Commander size.
*Optimus Prime’s backpack now gives extra support for the armor.
*Proportions in Super Mode have been improved.
*Super Mode is tall enough for the ladder not needed to be fold for the figure to stand.
*The final toy will still feature the same vac metallized parts of the original toy
*Ultra Magnus is now Commander size and has got the most improvements compared to the original toy in terms of proportions, stability and articulation, now featuring proper wide feet with ankle tilts.
*Ultra Magnus will have a spot for the Energon Matrix on his chest.
*Figures were designed by Hisashi Yuuki, designer of the original toys.
*New Autobot Bluebolt was Yuuki-san idea.
*Bluebolt is a Deluxe size Weaponizer/Armorizer.
*When you break apart Bluebolt in all his components, some of then can be used as filler gaps for Ultra Magnus.
*The shake-hands step for combination is still possible.
*Omega Prime’s chest piece will be vac metallized.
*Magnus’ parts which were still visible in combined mode (like the head and part of his arms) are now hidden or integrated in the combination.
*Omega Prime is even bigger than the original toy and even bigger than Haslab Victory Saber or Deathsaurus.
*Energon Blade is a new sculpt.
