Transformers Movie Leader Optimus Prime and Megatron Two Pack

Its like we went back in time.

What an objectively terrible idea.

JUST...REPACK...!?

Ohmygodwhy.

at least make them the premiums to justify this.

At least it will be less desired, hopefully making it cheaper

Dunno why, but I kinda want it

*Points at movie completists*

*Laughs*

This.

Everybody will be getting this because of the Leader class Megatron

One of the dumbest ideas ever to manifest into reality.

Wow.

The inferior OP Leader mold.
The megakibble Megatron mold.

Who wants this?

And they wonder why the DOTM line didn't fare so well.

That is why the insert the Megatron mold into these 2 pack because forcing collectors to get the inferior OP Leader mold as well.

umm....happy April Fools day?

I'd happily buy the 2007 Optimus Mould again if they made it in an interesting "New" colour - I still really like Nightwatch Prime perhaps Blazing Orange or white or Black. or muted colour pallet like Prime Nemesis.

Not going to buy it twice for the sake of a new box though.

I read the center text "Optimus Prime / Megatron Premium Set" in Japanese.
and TakaraTomy logo? hmmm....

hey i like the first movie op mold, i find it far more fun to transform then the revenge of the fallen mold, where i'm accidently popping things off!

Agreed, especially Megatron.

What's the point of this? Who's bright idea was it?
So many questions.

....And yet they're probably charging 2012 prices for it.

some poor misguided soul is gonna do a video review of this one. so sad.

Haven't we seen this image before?

Ha, yeah, it's a pain to transform but it's still wonderfully superior to the 07 mold. 07 isn't a bad toy, just not a great representation of the character.

Is this overstock or something?

There's no market for this.

Add me to the list of people who are thoroughly confused as to why they're doing this.

We saw a solicitation for it on May 4th. This however is the first image with the actual figures in the box.

Asia to Release 2007 Movie Leader Optimus and Megatron 2-Pack - Transformers News - TFW2005

"Lets re-issue the two least desirable Movie Leader molds in a two pack almost no-one will want!"

Awesome marketing/product logic.

Ah! That's what I was thinking about. We had news of this and a mock up.

They couldn't use premium Megatron? Ugh

wow, I mean really?!

Darn, those 2 toys are so outdated and IMO inferior to the ROTF versions. I know folks complain of ROTF's Megs because of his left arm but he looks better IMO.

Can we have a rotf repack?

There is one: Leader Jetfre and Optimus Prime - with the latter being the face plate version of Buster again if memory serves - repacked together with DotM box art.

they could be doing this as a continuation of the movie trilogy series thing....

They couldn't have re-released Leader Brawl instead? Or HA Barricade, a character that actually showed up in DOTM rather than two out-dated molds?

why?? that Optimus sucks

I agree with everyone else, WHY?!?! They could have done or used so many other things. I actually don't have either figure so if it's less than $70 I might get it, if not, it's an easy pass.........seriously

I see some guesstimates that this could be around 200USD - GTFO!! Ye, proof that they're seriously cutting corners and trying to grab money. Let's repack two crappy moulds that was done 5 yrs ago and place it in DOTM packaging...

I'll buy the set provided that they make Prime a BLACK Repaint. Otherwise no.

I never managed to get a Leader class Brawl... They would get my money if they re-released that.

Guys, you're missing something. This isn't a Hasbro release. It's a TakaraTomy product. Therefore, it's totally awesome!!!!!!!111

It really is amazing how accurate the engineers were able to make the ROTF toy to the screen model, but I don't enjoy the transformation, nor am I big of the look that was given to Prime in the movies (too long and slender). Thus screen accuracy isn't a loss to me, and I consider the first movie toy superior in regards to my taste. That said, I'm certainly not inclined to buy it again, especially not with that Megatron.

I love this, I never got the first Prime mold and my Megatron is falling apart. Score! I hope the price is right.

Gar-bidge.

They should've at least put the premuim Megatron with it instead of the original. I'd rather just buy the two separately in their original packaging

yeah... that can stay in asia

Still waiting for leader class Shockwave. Anytime now takara. Anytime now.

I have them already. Pass.

This and this. Hopefully with these Movie Leader Asia Exclusives coming out, Brawl gets included somewhere. It'd be even more awesome if he came in a new Premium paint job.

Don't forget Leader Blackout while you're at it.
We can still dream it will happen one day...
