Those flaps that stick out behind the smokestacks are so distracting. Why couldn't they just have them fold in behind the arms?

I can't stop looking at them and I hate them for it.

Since I'm from Australia, the price is quoted to be $224.30 AUD.

I'm sure someone will make those exact pieces as an aftermarket custom to fix what should of been done right the first time by Takara Tomy. All of the accessories on Optimus Prime's back seem equally distracting.

I am kind of glad this model does not come with the trailer. The trailer would be just more money, an oversized box and an accessory piece that may get used in truck mode. Takara Tomy won't stop at just one model though. Variants will always be around the corner to fish for extra sales.

Takara advertises in the MPG-17 transformation video that it is compatible with the MP-44 trailer so I doubt they are going to release one:
