Did Takara announce a golden Evasion Mode Optimus Prime? I can't recall if they did.

Are the Legends Commanders new molds, or redecos?

hes available for preorder from a few places.

robotkingdom is the cheapest, but preorders are sold out. when hes actually in stock maybe check again. however robotkingdom tends to be pricey when it comes to shipping...

TRU Exclusive Movie Advanced Optimus Prime rusty Version @ robotkingdom $47.90

BBTS and tfsource have him up as well both for the same price. tfsource is probably your best bet if you live in the states, what with their free shipping over $150.

Transformers 4 - Lost Age - Rusty Optimus Prime - Limited Edition @ tfsource $64.99

Transformers: The Lost Age Evasion Mode Optimus Prime Rusty Exclusive @ BBTS $64.99

What's stopping you from buy such things from online retailers?

Those would most likely be bootlegs/knockoffs.

Site sponsor Robotkingdom just reported and put up pre-orders for the next two releases of Takara Tomy's Transformers Legends line. Sky-Byte will be LG-06 and Jetfire will be LG-07. Both due to be released in December of this year. While the images provided is small and may vary from the final product, it looks like in a strange turn of events Takara's Jetfire will have a flat red color and lose all the chrome from the Hasbro version.

Sky-Byte has the asymmetrically-colored torso the original had, more paint apps on his legs, and blue missile instead of yellow.

Furthermore, it looks like they'll continue to use the Japanese names like they did for Primal and Rattrap. So it may not be Sky-Byte, but Gelshark.

Oh, is he called Gelshark? I couldn't tell from the tiny pic.

What about Jetfire? Is his name the same or are they going with the "Skyfire" name?

I think they're going with Jetfire this time around. The Japanese text just describes the figure, but the first paragraph tells what characters the figures are based on, "Jetfire from the cartoon" and "2000, Galshark from Car Robot" in a sense.
