Looks like its the PRID mold sans translucent plastic, plus OP and the three upcoming Microns that form the shield. This post has been edited by NightViper: Jun 14 2012, 10:20 AM --------------------  |

Okay, molded, but it still looks kinda boring to me regardless.

I think you underestimate how much I like Mini-Cons, and the Arms Microns in particular.
At any rate... looks like we have confirmed names for the shield trio! Prowl, Sais(?) and Jazz. Huh. M "Bit Of A Headscratcher There" Sipher -------------------- The ISLE OF RANGOON - Advantures in Learning and Sarcasm!

For me, it's a question of whether or not OP is worth the $20 that he'd contribute to the price since I can get Prime for $20 pretty much anywhere and the shield Mini-Cons for $24 at the most.
The answer to that question is: probably not. --------------------    KITTY WARS! |

Hold on... looks like there's more! He comes with a papercraft trailer that hooks up to the vehicle mode, can carry Microns and was apparently designed to also carry Bumblebee in alt-mode.
And the shield mode is indeed called the Cosmotector, which was the Japanese name for the Skyboom Shield. M "Interesting Indeed" Sipher -------------------- The ISLE OF RANGOON - Advantures in Learning and Sarcasm!

.. wait. No. It's not "Prowl" and "Jazz".
Their names, phonetically, are "Pral" and "Jayz". The kana is very definitely different from "Prowl" and "Jazz". Well. That makes things easier as far as the wiki goes, at least. M "And Explains 'Sais' A Bit More" Sipher -------------------- The ISLE OF RANGOON - Advantures in Learning and Sarcasm!

Actually, he DOES have translucent plastic. It's just black.
