Black Knight AD-31 Optimus from Japan

[griffin]

Just when you thought the fourth movie toys were finally all done, TakaraTomy decides to throw out one more for the hell of it... and it doesn't come out until August 3rd, which is a year after the movie was released in Japan, for about 8000yen. (about AU$90 atm)

It looks like this black redeco of the AD-31 remoulded Optimus toy is a ToysRUs exclusive in Japan, so might be even rarer to find than the AD-31 toy, which is hard enough to find as a "regular release" toy. (it's one I'm still looking out for, but online stores were very light on the last few movie toys, and sold out fast)

The official name of the toy is "Toys R Us Limited Transformers Movie Advanced Series Black Knight Optimus Prime".
Images mirrored here for when the TRU listing is eventually taken down.

Hrmmm been looking for an AD31 mould but couldn't get over how much kibble was on the back. The deco looks nice but the kibble.

It's been a year. If you're not over it by now you never will be.

Yeah I know what you mean... but when you like to collect Leader Primes the OCD takes over. So you uhmm and ahhh too and fro about finding one and getting it.

My friend has Armour Knight and he does look very good from the front and in vehicle mode, anything that has the side kind of kills it since the kibble can be pretty distracting.

Still, the detail is absolutely exquisite and that alone is almost worth it.

This looks like a very good Movieverse Nemesis Prime and I think the paint looks better then normal Leader OP. Might have to consider getting this...
