    Dang, I'll have to buy both Jetwing Prime and DX Prime to get the best of both worlds.

    Btw, no way this premium version of Prime will make it here as is.

    It sounds nice. But the last thing I need is another Leader Prime. So easy pass, unfortunately.

    I'm pretty excited about this. Love the base mold but I thought that the jetwings were a bit much and I didn't really want to pay a premium price for them. So, hopefully this will be a less expensive alternative.

    I can't believe this has to be said, but;

    "I really want it to be true" != "Confirmed"

    :p

    I don't think that will happen for a long time, if ever. I think the scenario is that to maximize profit, they'll have you buy jetwings prime for the wings, and if you want a painted Optimus, get DX Optimus.

    Agreed. Give us the updated Buster mold with the original ROTF level of paint and I'll be happy. Maybe a little bit of remolding to give Prime the ability to use Mech Tech, improved swords and a retractable faceplate and I'll jump for joy!

    I would still prefer if Hasbro did it from the ground up and give us something brand new, but I'd still be happy with the above.

    It's an amazing toy that's fairly inaccurate to a really fucking cool design.

    My paycheck may as well be direct deposited to Takara Tomy at this point.

    I understand that part but damn, squezzing every penny you can get. Sometimes it will backfire. But I do like that Jetwing Prime though.

    Anyway, there are a handful of options for DOTM Leader Prime, it seems. I'll just have to wait and see when it all comes out. Patience have workout for me so far, except buying MP Rodimus Prime....
