    The best words here are "Premium Series" backed up by the series numbering "APS01". Almost all the movie leader moulds deserve some prettying up.

    While I'm dreaming about a "complete edition" including a fully transformable trailer/weapons cache, a simple Buster redeco of the Striker mold (with Striker accessories plus TRU Japan blades like the picture seems to imply) would be pretty nice.

    Should have been called MPM-03... I guess that's what it's going to be, just with a different name.

    Ditto. I already have DOTM Buster Prime (courtesy of RK), Striker Pime (luckily I bought at Japanese retail at reduced holiday pricing with the free TRU battle blades), and Jetwing Prime (a birfmas gift from the wife so technically it didn't cost me anything XD) on top of DMK Prime (from AmiAmi and I haven't even put it together yet, lol) and two Revoltech Primes (and I'm eyeing the Rev Jetwing version). My wallet is on life support.

    If this is chromed up Striker OP, I will happily pass up. I'm really happy with the dark colour scheme of the original.

    Yes, the code does look promising. Any prettying up of Leader Ironhide should start with making him a bit less pretty; a version where the predominently blue legs are black plastic would be a step in the right direction. Any metallic paint apps should look good over that.

    We know almost nothing about it, and people are already complaining about the price.
