Subject: Inspecting my spanish Classic Prime

Well, before I wanted to leg it go, I would just sum up what kinds of variations I could find on him, based on Fred's page (as I don't have a real G1 unit to comare to).

This is what I found:

Spanish Classic Optimus Prime:
-------------------------------

* Plastic trailer
* Regular gun, but without lines inside back box and thick nub!
* Lined hosepump
* Type 3 Gen 1 smooth nozzle
* Standard unlined, unraised fists
* Standard round smokestacks
* Regular trailer launcher
* Smooth legs
* Smooth feet
* G1 type wheels
* No inside X-patterned support beam in upper legs!
* No ratchet joint in knees!
* Head is glued on!
* Large and smooth gas tanks
* No rub mark nor indent for it
* Blocked out stamping on trailer, and a "T2" in the connector
* Trailer door has a "3" stamped on it, as well as both trailer halves
* Later type cab seats
* Tiny lettering on stickers for trailer hardly readable

Can't compare colors, hose size or missiles, as I don't have any reallife references, and I don't want to take the missiles off their sprue...

Fighbird, quite satisfied with his #0 Convoy...
