OK I like this - I need this.
!@#$ yeah! I want this one. so its leader size with lights and sound? the guns look like they combine better than deluxe laserbeak's.
Pfft, who would want that rubbish...
*wife leaves the room*
OMG!OMG!OMG! LEMME HAZ IT PL0X!!!
Darn, no chrome.
I'm not convinced about this tbh. It looks okay, would like more pics. But at this point, unlikely to grab it
I like!
Especially the front end.
Oh well I guess this is an overseas purchase!
I'm not sure whether I like this enough to pay Japan's leader class prices.... :confused:
Though, I wonder if it would also be able to combine with the Jetwing packs?!
Nope, no like! Too much like the 3000 other different varieties of leader Op. Especially at overinflated Takara prices.
If this has better paint apps than my Hasbro ROTF Leaderclass figure then I'll be pretty tempted by this figure, more so than the Jetpack version that's for sure. ;)
That armoured truck mode looks bloody awesome! :cool:
Man, that looks awesome and means November is going to be an expensive time with a heap of new releases to save for ...
Glad I held off on/couldn't afford Jetwing Prime now.
This looks cool, but was hoping for it to have the open mouth face in contrast to the Jetwing Prime release which had the mask on.
Does anyone know how much this would be?
too much probably.. we're down to $1AU = $74Yen which is 10Yen down from the last few months.Quote:

you can get them for roughly 6000Yen from sites like amiami and hlj and shipping is 1500-2500Yen and at current exchange rates its around $110-120AU.Quote:

Courtesy of Seibertron.com, TakaraTomy have just updated their site with some information about a promotional item they are giving away.
As of November 18th, those who spend 3,000yen or more at Toys 'R' Us (Presumably Japanese TRU stores) they will in turn receive a pair of Battle Blades for the upcoming 'Striker' Optimus Prime, these pair of Blades are limited to 10,000 sets.

OMG I NEED THIS!!!
Seriously my first Movie Leader Optimus Prime is the Jetwing Prime and I was seriously bummed that he had no swords on him so I could pose him flying and slicing things up.
Now I need to find someone to ask a favour from :)
+10000000000000000... u get the idea...Quote:

...if (and only if) the paint turns out to be real good. No chrome is fine, as long as they can justify that with solid silver paints.
I'll throw my hat into the "ME WANTEE!" ring as well. My resolve is weakening towards DOTM purchases. Also it looks like you put those blades in any mechtech port wich adds som pizzazz to Ultimate Optimus Prime too.
Does anybody have any contacts in Japan that we could get to grab us a few hundred of these sets for us? :P
How to get it in Australia?
Most likely you'll have to import it from an Online store (Robot Kingdom) or possibly have it ordered through a Brick and Mortar Hobby store, if we're lucky one of the Major Retailers (Kmart, Big W, Target) may pick it up but I wouldn't hold my breath on that one. :oQuote:

Does this release have the same quality finish as the original Buster Prime? It looks like standard Hasbro grey from the pictures.
the only obvious thing i can see is the smokestacks are a more darker gunmetal grey?Quote:
