FullMetalHero received a listing today for DA28 DX Redecoration Optimus Prime Leader, an upcoming figure for the Dark Of The Moon line. This is the 1st time we’ve heard of a stand-alone leader class Optimus Prime figure for that line. Could it have been one of the figures Hasbro withheld from showing at Botcon to avoid spoiling the movie? The listing specifies a redeco, however will this DX release go beyond that, could it be an all new mold or retooled release?

the Question here is how much any of this primes will cost I'm kind sick of this takara today's prices!! I want a buster prime bad but man $170+ is crazy money for a toy at least for me I wish I had that change when they where cheaper @bbts.

They do have good reason to though…have you read the novel/comic adaptation summaries?

I understand that part but damn, squezzing every penny you can get. Sometimes it will backfire. But I do like that Jetwing Prime though.
Anyway, there are a handful of options for DOTM Leader Prime, it seems. I'll just have to wait and see when it all comes out. Patience have workout for me so far, except buying MP Rodimus Prime….

My paycheck may as well be direct deposited to Takara Tomy at this point.

Hasbro wont be bringing this release stateside, IMHO.

It's an amazing toy that's fairly inaccurate to a really fucking cool design.

Agreed. Give us the updated Buster mold with the original ROTF level of paint and I'll be happy. Maybe a little bit of remolding to give Prime the ability to use Mech Tech, improved swords and a retractable faceplate and I'll jump for joy!
I would still prefer if Hasbro did it from the ground up and give us something brand new, but I'd still be happy with the above.

All I want is the Buster Prime mold released in North America, I don't care what paint job he has, I want that gun!
Shin Densetsu
I don't think that will happen for a long time, if ever. I think the scenario is that to maximize profit, they'll have you buy jetwings prime for the wings, and if you want a painted Optimus, get DX Optimus.

I have to wait and see what changes are made…. but Takara can we just have a Buster painted Jetwings Prime?
