Can anyone  tell  the differnece in the non-pepsi versions of the G1 prime is a  prerub or not. I kmow the rubsighn would be at the top of the cab, but there's no space to see in there . It just so happens that I came across 2 of these Primes, both factory sealed intact and  both are in fair condition, both with minor back flaps amd edge wear and I want to know how to advertise them.... Pre rub or no?

Pre-rubs have lighter blue colouring on the trailer support struts. Are you sure you've got original Primes and not bootlegs though?

SO does no one know if the G1 Optimus Primes in its box is a pre rub or not? the only way to tell would be to open it?

Hi, I know this is an old topic, but in case anyone wants the answer for future reference:

A pre-rub OP will have 4 tabs (rectangular holes) on the side of the trailor. They are there because the pre-rub (grey roller) version had metal plates on the inside of the trailor instead of stickers.

Hope that helps,

Jeremy
