[RUMOR] November Issue of Hyper Hobby shows 'Premium' ROTF Leader Class Optimus Prime

Received this pic from fellow board member stephenusprime. It is from the November 2009 Issue of Hyper Hobby and purportedly shows a 'Premium' version of ROTF Leader Class Optimus Prime by TakaraTomy.

Either that or it's Buster OP, with a retractable faceplate?

Neither of us can read Japanese but I understand that it will have chrome applications on Prime's blades. Will update if I receive more information.

I think they just used a picture of the original Prime figure to show the differences with the new face sculpt.

I'm now thinking that you might be right

Looking at the two pics, the OPs on either pic have different colored 'horns'.

I may be wrong on this guys, as I cant even read Japanese.. But what I do know is that this Prime's swords has silver paint on them, where in the original one, it was just orange. Of course face plate is different.

Again, it may just be Buster Prime without his gun.

Anyways, here are more closeups: Sorry if it was a false alarm...
