Via a post on HK-TF 變形金剛香港網盟 Facebook group, we have images of the color prototype TFC Toys S.T. Commander (Rolling Thunder Optimus).
This incarnation of Optimus Prime is based on a G.I Joe Transformers concept art by Don Figueroa. Optimus Prime is coming as a powerful and heavily armed G.I Joe Rolling Thunder. The new images show the figure in both modes with all the accessories, guns and missiles around.
This awesome figure can be already found for pre-order in our sponsors below in 2 different colors: A classic G1 red and white colors and a special Jungle camo version. This awesome figure was scheduled for release this May, so it should start shipping any time soon.

Shipping will be about $25 but you pay it later. check out the Taobao thread for all the info

Taobao is like ebay or aliexpress, a trading platform with both legit and scummy sellers. What makes it cheap is that it is meant for sales within China and the prices there are lower. You'll need to use official or 3rd party forwarders to buy from there. It is a deep rabbit hole for non-chinese users, needs some research, trial and error. I don't recommend something this expensive for your first time using it.

Do you have a direct link so that I can order one? You ordered from Taobao before, is it safe/trusted?

Where can I get this Camo version for no more over than $150 shipped? :/

Oh man, I've resisted so far, but it's getting to the breaking point…..
I love Joe crossovers…

The KO dianauts I have (including the ones that came with the mechs) are alright, but some of them came with plastic flash or poorly cut sprues. I have seen some guys saying they got theirs broken and it's very possible, the workmanship varies a lot.

Me three! In a couple of weeks, he'll finally be in my grubby mitts! Been waiting ages for this guy, really excited.

How are the quality of these KO Diaclone Pilots compare to the official one? I heard someone mention the quality control is not that good. Anybody have them in hand and can give their opinion?
lake88
True, there are actual sales and reviews. Note that it's in Hebei, up in Northern China. May take an extra 1~3 days of local shipping time over the Shanghai stores you typically use.

This seller is solid though:

The search string I used was 淘宝网 – 淘！我喜欢
…but the current listings there look shady, with low rating sellers and zero-sales listings. It was 45 rmb for 4 pilots too.
