Aren't those pics of "Optimus Prime" and "Jetfire" from the first wave ????:confused:

I didn't realise it until you mentioned it... they were taken from Hasbro's website, so were probably just using stock footage of previous toys. I'll change that over later.

Just took a pic of the box back, because it was easier/quicker than transforming both my toys to both modes, and the combined mode... and I had trouble finding pics online that weren't water-marked.
You get the general idea...

I was lucky enough to have a Japanese seller break the set on Ebay (another buyer wanted just the Jetfire). I don't think the Jetfire redeco is any better than the Hasbro version. Buster Prime with the battle mask is nice to have though.

I have this 2 pack of awesomeness on lay-by at my local K-Mart...
Should be picking them up in a couple of weeks.
:D

The only problem is I already have the original leader Prime...
I guess I'll have too try and sell him...

If anyone is interested...drop me a PM and we'll chat...
;)

Worth every penny, the detail and the paint job makes it worth buying, it also comes down to being a lot cheaper than the hasbro release when you buy them separate.

Thanks to the efforts of G1Optimal (who took photos of the two toys in both modes), the first post has been updated.
