I had Ginrai when I was little (almost as old as my son is now, he also plays with that toy), though the European version was called "Optimus Prime" and didn't have the second trailer... Seeing your version has a second trailer kinda makes me jealous! BTW, I raise my son as a Transformers fan! :P
if i understand correctly ginrai was human just like a group of other powermasters and they found something called transectors that in the case of the autobot transectors later became transformers in their own respect after seperating from the humans
The Upgraded Armor for this PowerMaster Optimus should have been called "GodArmor" instead of the "GodBomber" ...it kinda sounds like...well you know that already.
i could of picked this guy up at toys r us but instead i got armada deluxe optimus so i cant get powermaster prime with godbomber cuz it was my only chance and i blew it on another toy :( which was retarded of me but i did not know what series it was from though lol
I own the original Powermaster Prime as well as this rerelease. And as a word of warning be careful forming the legs for the plain Prime/Ginrai due to the fact the plastic seems soft and not much in the way of reinforcement
The newer Optimus Prime figure that is available through Hasbro (its like the platinum or something) has full articulation. This figure blows, regardless if its Ginrai or Optimus.
the big black guns sit ontop of the trailer (read the instructions u twit lol) how old are you? i figured that out when i was 7, unless the Jap version is different which from what i can see, it isnt
God Ginrai makes a nice display peice, that is for sure, he sits on top of my bookcase as God Ginrai thou gathering dust, he sill looks cool espaically compared against some of the later Optimus combiners, Ginrai just stands out as wicked cool!
you can actually put the original prime inplace of ginrai as a robot....after all inthe story line the trailer was actually mede for him,but he was already dead....
I think this is one of the best figures from the latter half of G1 because of all the playability that it has. there's 5 vehicle combinations, 5 robot modes (including ginrai/hi-Q), and a battle station. Simply beautiful. I just have one question, Why prey tell does you're Takara Ginrai cab have the Hasbro Shortened smokestacks?
nope. I've got mine sitting right here, and they were longer stacks. It's not impossible that the person you bought it from may have tried to substitute a reissue and put it in a vintage box. You may check the figures for a manufacturing year on the trademark stamp. It looks to me as though it might be the Hasbro Reissue Semi Truck. However, on the other hand, the missile for God Bomber is short which leans more toward being vintage. The reissue had elongated missiles (per U.S. safety rules).
whoot Ginrai!! my fav god force character eva...i am mighty fritz about the english dub they call him optimus prime. lets just say my TF collection learned about my colourful english, japanese, and cybertronian swear vocab. lol if i was fluent in japanses i'd watch it raw but i don't -_-.

But with out that dumb falling apart of the bot, they probably wouldn't have had the idea for combinging robots to form robots such as Devastator.

nope. I've got mine sitting right here, and they were longer stacks. It's not impossible that the person you bought it from may have tried to substitute a reissue and put it in a vintage box.
