Compared to the previously released Optimus Prime,
paint details have been added to the arms and a rocket Booster has been added to the back.

You can also display it without the rocket Booster attached.

The features of moving the ears to open the mask, or opening the chest to reveal the Matrix are all still there.

The transformed trailer is included too, just with a different color scheme.

Together with D-Style Optimus Prime.

Black Convoy has been released as a variation of D-Style Optimus Prime. Since it's officially a color variant of Optimus Prime, the kit itself is 100% identical — only the molded colors have been changed.

Since just swapping the colors would've felt a bit lacking, paint details have been added to the forearms, and a rocket Booster can now be attached to the back. The silver and black color combination gives it a heavier, more imposing look. The weapon accessories are the same as Optimus Prime — a laser rifle, an energy axe, and one right hand in a pointing gesture.

Aside from the added rocket Booster, there's not much new to explore here, but the appeal of this kit is that it lets you easily build a small but cute Black Convoy. If you can, displaying it alongside Optimus Prime would look even better. :-)
