Autobase Aichi reports that in Bic Camera stores in Japan right now a purchase of 3’000 yen or more on Transformers Prime merchandise is being rewarded with a postcard that can be used to enter a prize draw. The top prize of the drawing, which is due to take place in January 2013, is shown as a chromed version of the Transformers Prime First Edition Arcee toy, limited to 25 pieces. Entry for the draw closes on 3 December this year.
Check out attached to this story pictures taken from Autobase Aichi, showing the prize draw entry postcard and the advert displayed in store.

Will have hope for a Lucky Draw FE Voyager Optimus Prime instead of Arcee

Not a fan of the FE mold but dear sweet Primus that's a lovely rendition. The blue chrome looks great on Arcee.

The FEs are kind of a long story. Long story short…they were rare in the US, but with an upcoming TRU release (finally), they hopefully won't be…with the exception of the normal Cliffjumper, who is not included in the current FE release at TRU (neither is Bumblebee).

Question.
Are the first edition figures rare? I have Arcee and Cliffjumper I bought while in Singapore and I can't find any of them around here for sale back in the states. What the hey hey?

That's actually a nice new take on a Lucky Draw, rather than doing it in all gold or silver chrome. I wouldn't mind owning this, but I'm not going to hunt it down by any means either. Still, cool.

Pretty sure it's his destiny.
… but you already knew that.

That's a VERY lovely chrome on her.

Is Kaijuguy deemed to buy this?

I own every release of this mold so far–I must have this one next! She will be mine…oh yes…she will be mine!

I'll go do that right now.
Looks neat but I don't like the First edition mold to begin with so Pass.

Don't tell kaijuguy!

Lovely paint job, and I dig the FE mold despite its inaccuracies to the show model. Doubtful I'd ever win something like this but guess it couldn't hurt to try and enter.
soymonk
I kind of want that…

Looks cool! They should make more!

Wow, wish I could enter this! That blue chrome looks super.

Lovely colouring- shame it's so limited – but I also prefer the P-R.I.D. & Arms Micron versions though.
It would have been great if they had made it in similar numbers to Micron Legend Scourge for example.

The blue chrome looks way better than the gold they always use.
