A fellow fan by the screen name Sinestro found several YOTH Optimus Prime figures at his local TRU. There were no Starscreams, however. He also provided picture proof of his find.

Does this mean we'll see it be released sooner by BBTS? That question seems to remain unanswered.

Here's what Sinestro had to say:

Quite happy to pass on this.

It's a great oppertunity for those who missed out on the first release. I got mine across the ocean with a lot of postage costs and hassle. Cost me quite a kidney or two, but it's the best Prime at the moment so worth it.

a great opportunity for those who missed out on MP10?.. i don't think so.. this isn't a good substitute for MP10 at all.

It is for those who enjoy the G2-esque colors... not that I'm one of those people (though I do have one on order).

I'll admit it. The colors are so bad that I was oddly drawn to them. My TRU Had one sitting on the shelf and I bought it. My original MP Prime is so wobbly anymore so I figured this would be a good replacement.
