Very, VERY odd. The repaint shown at Botcon clearly has the standard mode head, unlike the 'crown' of the original. Wonder what's going on here. Sorry if this has been pointed out already, BTW. 
Compare it to the Best Buy version and you'll see what I mean:   |

I dont see why a new version would have the old head, especially since the paint scheme is the premium one. | |

Perhaps this toy will represent Megatron before he started following the Fallen? | |

Why not just take a testshot from the actual TF1 figure and repaint that? Doesn't make much sense.... | |
