My logic is perfectly sound and I'm as "right" as anyone else here. Moving on.

They're not my preferred implementation by any stretch, but I do like them. In particular, I'm glad that we got at least the Masterforce Decepticon trio. They work well enough for how they were portrayed in the show, with the shells being basically human sized. It's a shame Waverider never got released.
I have one on preorder, but I really wish they went for chrome vs rubber tires. I have no idea how budget works out but I’d take something instantly visible va having to do a touch test.
I liked them, myself, though I wish we'd gotten a Waverider to finish the Autobot set. I even liked their Targetmaster modes (but then, I would. Never met a Targetmaster I didn't like.). My only quibble is, instead of the Prime emblems, I wish the inner robots sported the heads of the original Pretenders so they could have functioned like the Titanmasters as "spare" heads for other Transtectors. Obviously, that wouldn't have jived with the whole "Thirteen" shtick very well, but I think it would have made them a more satisfying Pretender homage.
If they release a nicer version later I'll double dip. I'm willing to take that risk. I'll throw V1 in a bin and my V2 will have four blasters and two energon axes.
I hoped that the Primemasters had gone with the original idea of being Powermasters and/or Headmasters too. It would have been nice to also have the mini robots in the colours of the inner robots too.

Maybe they’ll do an exclusive with some trailer and with the sticker detail painted up. Dunno which trailer would work best given that the Deluxe is even smaller than the G1 toy. The somewhat small Earthrise trailer might actually match it best but the G1 trailer might actually work out decently given that the G1 toy’s cab is actually too big in comparison to his trailer in terms of real life vehicle proportions.

Square-cube law.
I'm planning to try the DOTM Deluxe trailer. It's boring, but it should fit.
Still a sad trailer but at least the length looks right now.
I'm just considering the DOTM Deluxe trailer because I already have one, and because this Prime's hitch must be pretty similar to the Chronicle version if it's compatible with the G1 trailer and modern trailers. It's the only trailer I know of that was designed to pull double duty that way.

Earthrise trailer’s kind of lame but the worst is that the white part of the stripe is unpainted.
I bought a KO G1 OP just to use the trailer with Earthrise Optimus but I hope it fits SS86 as the included trailer with that isn't as good as the G1 original, IMO.
I use the trailer from Volvo Prime with ER Prime. Volvo Prime is trailerless because he's a rebel.
A rebel without a cause?
