I'm only after those two plus DOTM Soundwave aside from the previously mentioned Prime's. But if Takara isn't doing anything different paint wise I'll just get the Hasbro versions.
According to those early product listings, the Bumblebee is said to be "movie accurate deco, with more details on arms, legs and horns", while Galvatron is noted as having an "extra blue line in (robot) mode, and orange on chest & eyes".
JP versions often seem to include all the original paint apps that Hasbro had in their promotional images, but progressively removed to reduce production costs of each figure.
