Third Party Transformers maker, Fans Project, has updated their website again; this time with more information and pictures regarding their G3 Trailer for Classics Prime.

These pictures reveal new details about the figure. The first picture gives a pretty good indication where the trailer will sit on Classics Prime in alt mode. And it is evident that the trailer will be able to turn. Ultra Magnus trailer gives a good size comparison.

The G3 Trailer appears to have several tricks in store. There is an extra wheel base to attach to Ultra Magnus’s trailer allowing it to form a “convoy”. Underneath the trailer there appears to be jacks behind the translucent plastic to stabilize the trailer when Prime detaches. Also you will notice in both pictures that the G3 Trailer is multi hinged, which would allow the sides to fold down. What lies inside? We can only guess at this point.

Click here to see the original pictures.

It's back up again now.

Very tall compared to Prime. I'm still going to hold off on judgement until as see more images showing details inside & out of final painted piece and info on pricing.

Not too sure what I think about this just yet. It look too boxy. Classics prime has become more sleek now, why should his trailer be the same box?

Let's see what happens.


i agree every prime has ther own uniqe trailer i was expeting to see whats in side time will tell i may get this and the other trailers dont know yet

I think it's very interesting that the Magnus trailer can hook up to the Prime trailer. Could this be a double pack of some sort? A City Commander reissue with the new Prime trailer. OR a Powered Commander repaint with the Prime trailer. Diaclone AND G1! I hope the new trailer is stuffed full of extra goodies; weapons, armor, etc.

I'll need to see what's inside that trailer before I decide on anything.

In the end both will be popular, but it will all depend on personl tastes.

Those who want a 'classic' looking trailer will get FanProject's.
Those who want a more sci-fi/techno looking one will get the other.
Those with money to burn will get both. Considering one will have a 'Nemesis Prime' version they can get one of each mold without much worry.

Looking at that additional hitch for the City Commander, we could probably attach the BST Trailer on there instead and make a mega-convoy.

A Powered Convoy? Hmmm... :-?

I kinda want to see what's inside this puppy before I decide between this and the BST version. And I don't mean just roller and Classics BB.

I smell a Power Master Prime going on here after seeing that additional truck hitch to attach the battle armor.

The new pictures make me want it even more.

I can't wait for more pictures after the details are added.

I like this a lot, just wish it was more in scale with the Ultra Magnus trailer. In other words, it's too big.

My question is how does Fanprojects get the materials to make their own 3rd party stuff? That and when will they do a Leader Class Movie Prime Trailer? It doesn't have to transform. I just want to put cars in it and slide it on a ramp.

Holy Necrobump Batman!

To answer your question, FansProject does all the design work themselves and then (presumably) have the contacts to rent out time in a good-quality production facility in China.

No one's announced a trailer for a Leader Class Prime, but I wouldn't be surprised if it were to happen at some point some time.

Ancient thread... RISE!

And to keep on something of a topic, I own the G3 trailer and it's awesome.
