There have been four packaging styles for the Star Wars Transformers toyline over the last 6 years (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=11625) (yellow, then blue, then red, then black). As part of their concept of "keeping the line fresh", the packaging style has been changed to a curved dark blue card-back (and similar slyled/coloured box for the Quad-changer).
Up on the Hasbro site, the first wave of this 5th series has been released for February pre-order.
The three figures in Class 1 (the small size) are all redecos with swapped heads.
Anakin/Clone Wars Jedi Starfighter (http://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/action-figures-star-wars-transformers-anakin-skywalker-to-jedi-starfighter-figure?CD=2&BR=495&ST=SO&PG=4) (previously as Obi Wan)
Obi Wan/Ep3 Jedi Starfighter (http://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/new-to-hasbrotoyshop-star-wars-transformers-obi-wan-kenobi-to-jedi-starfighter-figure?CD=121&BR=496&ST=SO&PG=1) (previously as Anakin)
