    Ugh. Crap toys. No doubt repackaged b/c they couldn't sell.

    Saw them today at Carindale BigW, and the colours look a little paler, especially Optimus, who seems to be getting a bit too pinkish these days... something we should know Mr Prime?

    Probably the light in the store, as I'm sure they released this set in another market ages ago, and just repacked these for here/universe didn't they? I don't see this as being another production run.

    No, it was always a universe set, BTW they don't literally repack toys when they release them in new packaging, they do another run.

    Just saw one on display this arvo. Packaging is as huge as the other cybertron 2-pack.
    Massive air space they could even put another couple more deluxes into it...

    It is a more traditional Optimus Prime repaint
