According to Autobase Aichi, the DVD that is included with a purchase of a Happy Meal this week at Japanese McDonald’s, there is a mention of a new “McDonald’s Trailer Optimus Prime” that can store the “Food Straps”. The product image in the DVD is in silhouette and more details are to be announced from TakaraTomy‘s website soon. Strangely enough, the Optimus Prime toy appears to be the Dark Of The Moon Voyager mold with a McDonalds “M” logo. How this toy will be available to consumers is unknown but we’ll keep you updated. 2005 Board member Ricochet has included some screen shots from the new dvd of this new trailer and Optimus figure in silhouette.
Additionaly, some new images popped up over the weekend of the new food strap Happy Meal toys and you can see them here

This toy has been designed for kids, not for you.

You do not pay for your Happy Meal toys in the US, in Japan we do (well, the higher quality toys we do).

agreed.
i personally wouldn't mind having the takara deluxe prime w/ trailer released in the US.
and.. i wish hasblow would release jetwing prime in the US. i mean, what is the point of having ultimate prime? it's not accurate to the movie. the base body is garbage, and the price is outrageous. the only mode that looks good is the truck w/ trailer.. otherwise it's garbage.
what we should've gotten for the price of ultimate prime is a remolded rotf leader prime and a trailer that transforms into his screen accurate jet pack, with the rest of the trailer transforming into his weapons bay (like in the scene at chernobyl) and it should've come with at least two handheld swords, and they should've thrown in two hand held axes. .. now that would've been worth $80-$100. everyone would've been happy and it would've been the quintessential movie prime package.. instead, it's a figure that is going to sit on shelves for two years and finally being on clearance for probably $30 at walmart.. which will then probably lead hasblow to believing that we won't buy larger higher priced figures.. which isn't the case.
i wish those people at hasblow would use their heads once in a while.

Enough of the fucking "preview, secret, teaser" bullshit pictures. This is getting too stupid with all this teaser shit. They do this with every transformers toy, crap or not.

A prime that is absolutely garbage might I add.

Another Prime trailer we won't get in the US. Why are we only getting Ultimate Prime in the US.

I do hope its not yellow : ) but nonetheless…. I WANT THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How come Japan gets all the good stuff? JOLIBEE PRIME ANYONE?

*Getting flashbacks of Pepsi Prime* Anyway, Looks great. Would be perfect if the Trailer is styled with a mobile advertisment you see on Mcdonalds Trucks. This is not going to be a cheap piece to add, given how I feel the Transformers Prime food MC-changeables are overpriced.
