KOToys has posted a small gallery of the Transformers Museum exclusive piece Transformers Animated Optimus Prime Black Version. This piece which is limited to 300 pieces at the event itself will also see a second run of at least 1000 pieces later this year, according to boards member bodhar2000. It carries on Takara-Tomy’s tradition of taking an Optimus Prime and painting him black with red windows and teal highlights in the style of the Jafcon Convoy or the unreleased WonderFest Henkei Convoy.

Hell, iGear has them on their site for $150. But, I bet they come loose.

I got mine for 145 shipped. Hopefully I won't regret buying it at that price.

I got one off a seller on ebay for 110$ You can DEFINITELY find them cheaper than some of the online stores.

Well, I cancelled a few other pre-orders and ordered one of these from BBTS. I figure with later shipment Seacons and Wingblade Prime, I'll wait until all three are in stock then ship them together at once.
I figured a black repaint was inevitable. While I'd like it even cheaper, gotta take what you can get. Such is the curse of a Black Convoy collector.

9 times out of 10 I'm a sucker for a black repaint… but not this. I'm not keen on how the sliver stripe on the truck mode turns teal when it hits the arm, I know it looks cool in robot mode but it just does not work in truck mode.

Good, that is about what I paid on eBay. I feel better .

I don't mind the seeker repaints but I just could never get into the black OP's.
