How many Optimus toy versions are there?

Okay, fellow Seibertronians, this is a serious question of mine. Some of you may be aware that I currently only collect Optimus Prime/Primal/Convoy/3rd party not-Prime toys. As such, I am in need of your collective knowledge about the various Optimus toys that exist (or will be existing) out there. If there is an existing thread on this matter, then I apologize, for I did use the "search" function and the "toy galleries" section to gather what it is I currently know. However, I believe I may be missing a few.
Things I take into consideration include:
- Poseability (which rules out figures like G1 Prime, MW "Prime," or God Ginrai)
- No basics/legends
- No towering beasts (a la MP-01)
- No repaints/retools of the same mold
- Likeness to the character (which rules out TFTM leader Prime)
- Similarity to other molds (TFP FE Prime vs. TFP RID Prime)
- Coolness (which rules out Leo Prime)
- Must transform
- No Kreo for me!
What I currently have, in no particular order:
- Universe Beast Primal
- Big Convoy
- Lio Convoy
- TM Primal
- OpOp
- Anniversary Deluxe Primal
- BM Deluxe Primal
- Blast Punch Primal
- Galaxy Force Convoy
- Xovergen Grand Patriot
- Classics Deluxe Prime
- Classics Voyager Prime
- Protoform Prime
- Alternators Prime
- RTS Prime with Battle Tanker
- Deluxe Fireburst Movie Prime
- WFC Prime
- FOC Prime
- MMC Knight Morpher
- DOTM Lunafire Voyager Prime
- Battle Hooks Voyager Prime
- Earth Mode Voyger TFA Prime
- Cybertronian Mode Deluxe TFA Prime
- WWI Prime
- RID Prime
- Energon Prime
- Armada Prime
- TFP RID Prime
I concluded that I am missing these such figures:
- TW-02 (awaiting his eventual release)
- Masterpiece Prime (awaiting his US release)
- Alternity Convoy
- Bat Primal (an exception to my "size rule," since he looks like a bad-ass robo ninja)
- Robot Masters Convoy
- G2 Prime/Scourge (but which one to buy?)
...Any others??? Thanks for taking your time to read and respond!
