    Well, you won't have to pay a grand, but around $150, which is kinda pricey for a Voyager! Check out TFSource:

    DOTM - Lawson's Exclusive - Battle Blades Dark Side Colored - Optimus Prime

    It is nice, but I was kinda hoping for under $100!

    Already happened. Amazon Japan ROTF Leader Prime, Black Version.


    Still on Pre-order on their site, Lawsons Exclusive Hunt for the Decepticons Voyager Optimus Prime Dark Version - Transformers Transformers III - Dark of the Moon Exclusives

    I do agree about the gold/yellow/brown parts detracting. I'm just not feeling this, which along with it's price is enough to keep me a way. I don't feel too bad, my Black Prime/Convoy shelves are getting pretty packed as is.

    The bio makes me wonder if Darkside WFC Prime is either the same guy or the same inspiration.

    I agree. The gold doesn't work well in bot mode, but the truck mode looks superb with the gold/burning paint job. My wife had her old classmate in Tokyo ordered one for me, so I will probably get it next month.

    I'm glad Tak/Tomy tried something different though.

    I hate when Takara does that cheap black n' white packaging. Like what they did to the henkei seekers.

    So, basically, it's Optimus Prime's Heartless.

    I was telling another TFW member I just don't like these black versions of any bot, including Optimus, and we all know how much I love Optimus! ;) 
    The truck mode isn't bad but just not a fan of the bot mode.

    Glad you got him and thanks for sharing the pix Masabon! :thumb

    Very pretty, esp. since I have passed up the mold so far. But not for me, especially at that price.
