DNA Design DK-44 Studio Series ROTB Optimus Prime Upgrade Kit

What are the two blue T-shaped things for in bot mode? If anything?

I see one of them, perhaps both, are used in truck mode to fill in the gap between the legs; but I don't see it anywhere else.

Tossed aside?

I'm pretty sure they're trailer hitches.

This is quite an interesting kit! I really love the accessories especially the blasters; massive massive upgrade over the ones the original figure came with.

However I personally dislike their solution to the messy back kibble and I don't feel like it looks any better than the original. We've essentially gone from a truck with a messy back to a truck with feet sticking out like Toyworld Freedom Leader. I just wish they gave him new legs instead of so many accessories and a static Noah Diaz figure. Don't get me wrong, both of them look great but I just don't feel like paying 40 quid for this. I'd rather pay 55 quid for Optimus Primal (which looks like a cool figure well worth picking up btw) just to have Prime’s axe and I'd get an awesome figure with the bonus of having Prime’s accessory.

The shoulder mod with the brand new smokestacks though is simply brilliant! The original shoulders just keep smacking Prime in the face and this is so much worse when you realise how big his smokestacks are. The new ones look absolutely amazing and improve his articulation so much but tbh I on the fence as to whether I wanna buy this kit simply because I was hoping for brand new legs instead.

Does anyone notice the arm cannons are both left handed?

I think it’s not left hand just turned to face the same way

Injection molded, yes.

3d printed option currently available.

Do you have a link to that option?

Is this the only SS-102 leg fixer kit on the market right now?

Did I miss the boat on this on ShowZ? Shows as the first item on the new items, but also shows sold out.

Are these just SS38s legs on 102? Is it a straight swap?

Yeah pretty much needs screwdriver though

I was expecting the upgrade kit to be something like this, not this but similar.

Shoulders are a good addition, still think they should have made the shins that simply fold in against the back of the truck like SS 38.
