If you missed out on United Laser Optimus Prime and have had difficulty tracking it down on the secondary market, you’re in luck! TakaraTomy will be re-releasing this figure again soon(this month according to preorder listings!). Preorders for this reissue can be found at the following:

United G2 OP just ropped in my PoL at BBTS.
45 units left, last I checked.
Stepper
If you are talking about United G2 Thunder Megatron, just for your info,my friend in Asia saying this piece is just crap,they are on clearance sale in Asia
flamepanther
I doubt that. G2 "Thunder" Megatron is commanding the same price, despite being common and not very popular. I'm pretty sure the premium is just due to being an imported Optimus.
Murasame
He's shorter than WFC Prime, isn't he? I once saw a photo of him that he is really short and than decided I don't want him. Otherwise I would get excited about that news.
Stepper
It is because of Battle Tanker that has jacked up the price for this G2 Optimus Prime figure.

Having one in Battle Tanker armor has only made me appreciate this mold+deco even more. Off to buy another!

Originally wanted this version, but since getting a Battle Tanker, don't really need to.
Shin Densetsu
Considering the yen to dollar ratio and that this is a Japanese release which was hard to track down after the initial sell through, no it is not.
Matty
I wasn't aware of his popularity, but I guess it warrants a reissue. I have the RTS version and I'm more than happy with it.

Yea, it isn't the best United Figure, which is probably why I didn't have it on preorder, but now the completionist in me wants it.
Got my United G2 Prime for $35. While I don't like the mold that much, it looks better hauling the Maketoys Tankor than the RTS one. For $35, I had to have it.

Oh heck yeah, good news if you are one who wants it.

It sure looks swell in a Shattered Glass deco.
And $50 for a mold I already have 3 versions of…pass. But 'Yay!' for those who want this.
GrimlockAutobot
Same here…I'm a classics collector and I don't understand why people are falling all over themselves for this mold.
It's pure hot garbage in my opinion. Way too small and the head sculpt is fugly.
ex dtw2003
I actually really dislike the mold myself – it's a floppy mess.
Stepper
But $40-45 for a Deluxe figure is sure expensive
tomboland
score!
NemesisBrime
i have perceptor hes garbage
Stepper
Yah,that will be sure one gd news if Perceptor get a rerun
archieboy
Get it.
The bot's a Hasbro RTS and that's a KO Battle Tanker, if you're wondering.
GrimlockAutobot
Too bad I hate this mold or I might consider it.
Wish they were re-issuing United WFC Prime instead.
