    Found these on Seibertron. Looks like they're not Knock Offs after all.

    According to them, Lunarfire Optimus Prime is a Walmart Exclusive, like the previous deluxe Prime, and Roadbuster will be in the deluxe wave five assortment. Here are the bios and the mirrored Picutres.

    We saw that Optimus in box at SDCC. How did people think he was a Knock Off?

    I've passed on Roadbuster out of hope for a weaponized deluxe, but I could make this one "Warpath" like the concept art, and have even more angry Scottish robots.

    They just can't give us a weaponized Roadbuster, can they!

    I AM LOOKING AT YOU, HASBRO

    Oh well, I will probably still get this, because I loved the DOTM wreckers. As far as exclusives, I am thinking Walmart...cause you know...the sticker?

    Literally no one said these were knock offs at all. In any case im all over the Roadbuster for my deluxe Wreckers display, I can't stand that deluxe Prime mold though so ill be passing on it for sure.

    I thought I read that the Prime is going to be exclusive to Wal-Mart... however, I don't remember where I read that, so take it with a grain of salt.

    Also, that orange Roadbuster is not very easy on the eyes.

    There's a Walmart sticker right on front of Primes package...

    And yes, chrome trim on the boxart has equalled store exclusive. Will be interesting to see where Orangebuster shows up.

    I won't be surprised if we see multiple repaints of all the NASCAR bots, The left-turn-only fans will be all over them.

    Getting Prime for the gun. But where the hell is Leadfoot, Mirage and the rest of the guys. Seriously sucking the repaint wagon big time. Hey Hasbro your stocks were at $45.00 now they are at $37.00, maybe you shouldnt have invested so much in skids repaints and put out "New" transformers!
