New "Movie Trilogy" packaging (on new Hasbro Trailer Optimus)

[griffin]

A recent ebay auction has shown us that the upcoming Hasbro Optimus + Trailer release (using the Deluxe Optimus with the JP Chronical Trailer), will be packaged in DotM styled packaging, but with a new tag-line, or sub-line/sub-title... called "Movie Trilogy Series" replacing the "Dark of the Moon" sub-title.

This isn't anything new, as each of the previous Movies had a sub-line attached to "keep the line fresh" for the retailers... as if a small added/changed logo makes a difference.

Expect this to be the 2012 packaging variation in stores for any future Movie character/themed toys that aren't already known or released.

Pictures of Optimus out of packaging.

The blue looks darker on this version of Optimus.

The blue and the grey both look really dark. How odd.

Now sighted at US Retail.
We probably won't see this here, or if we do, it may not be for a while.

Oh god, if only I could look at his chest and not see a sad chicken with pursed lips.

On ebay people are selling them for 50 bucks US. So it's landed here for 65 Aussie dollars.

I still really like and want the trailer (even though it sits back too far on the truck) BUT I already have this ugly version of Optimus in similar colours AAAAND with gold/bronze kinda highlights.
