Time for another SDCC 2017 in hand gallery! Tonight we have the Primitive Skateboarding Optimus Prime and Shreddicus Maximus, based on the Titans Return Powermaster Optimus Prime mold. The toy features a black and gold color scheme and comes with additional Titan Master accessory that turns from skateboard ramp into a cannon! All in all it’s a sharp, fun set that makes no sense other than it’s just plain cool! You can see for yourself over in our gallery, we have over 90 HD images of Prime hanging with Shreddicus pulling Primo Grinds, Null Ray Rays and Ollie Ollie Maximi!

Is there just a single version of this color/toy so far?
I thought I saw a listing for one that was slightly different (leader size, in black).
Maybe it was a BS/mistaken listing or my memory is just defective?
May have been a chinese listing that mislabeled it as nemesis or nucleon.

Got mine from HTS, but it has a defect…. Both top rear panels are identical instead of one left and one right. I don't know if I should try and get it RMA'd or not… I've heard horror stories about TFW2005 members who RMA'd Chaos on Velocitron sets and didn't get replacements.
Anyone have a junker PMOP i can buy a panel from and just paint black? Or maybe one of you have 2 of the other panel and want to trade?

Other than the one problem mine has, this figure is really cool. He looks even better if you swap guns with Hasbro Ultra Magnus and use seat-guns from Voyager Optimus / Octane.

Just got mine of ebay for $56+shipping. No a bad deal.

Dammit, I missed the hasbro pre-order. Now its 100 bucks or more. I hate exclusives.

(Source: – double entendre – definition of double entendre in English | Oxford Dictionaries )
Some definitions give a tertiary, non-smutty use, although it is implied that is not so popular or widespread in use.

It's a skate rail, and a rail gun… Guess it's the wrong word anyway. Wasn't aware that taboos/innuendos were needed for it…
That aside… If reprolables had a set of purple decals for this guy, it'd go a long way to further cement the Nucleon Quest homage.

How is this a double entendre? There isn't any implied innuendo or taboo meaning. For the most part, that's the popular use for double entendres, otherwise, it's merely a pun.
Anyway, why no comparison shots with the G1 Nucleon Quest Super Convoy figure?

Well that's darned clever! Gleam the cube, little Titan Master.

Wow. Beautiful pics.
CodeXCDM
^ Or Nucleon Quest Convoy. ;p
Gotta say… that Rail Gun is a fun item, double entendre too.
ZapRowsdower
Awesome pics… except now you've leveled up the competition to get this and it'll be more of a b*tch to acquire!
I wish they made the colors more 90s vibrant, though. Think about it: BLACK OPTIMUS appeals to black collectors (of which there are many), so we will have a bunch of guys getting this as a Nemesis stand in. I'm into it for the skateboard gimmick (that's been so well integrated, as others have already stated). Given the choice of color, would I get a black skater on a black board? No.
I'd love this in something funky, like pink or orange or yellow. The board could be teal or blue or fire!
So kind of bummed with the mishmash of Nemesis and Skater-Prime.

It's so silly and novel. I love the color scheme more and more every time I get a better look at it, and I really love the new ramps and hoverboard for the Titanmaster. Plus I only have Takara's Ginrai with all the remolding so I won't feel guilty getting this one too. It's not a top priority for me, but I'll grab one here pretty soon.

Why does he have the Atlas Gundam\'s Railgun!? O_O\'
UltraMagnanimus
Ah crap, Im a sucker for black repaints.
Obsidian X
Wow, it's gorgeous! I didn't fell like I really wanted it previously but after seeing these pics… yeah, I want it now.

While it looks great, Im more looking forward to Takara's inevitable LG 35 Super Ginrai re-release into Nucleon Quest black repaint.
BW megatron
At least it's decently painted, hasbro can learn from that.

I agree, I'm not a fan of this mold nor color scheme, but I really want that skateboarding playset with the titanmaster, it looks so fun^^.
Furnace
Yeah! It also makes the base mode look well, more like a base.
Paxtin
I like how they actually worked a little transforming skateboarding element into the toy. That makes it so much more interesting as an exclusive then just being painted with their colors and logo.
