The only difference to the mold is the head and extra weapons.
I wouldn't get my hopes up that these come looking as awesomely painted when they hit shelves. These look like promo shots and those always get extra paint apps.
These are definitely not Has/Tak promo shots, they aren't horribly photoshopped and mistransformed like Hasbro always does and the paint jobs are different from Takara's. Robotkingdom took these of Hasbro figures they have in-hand.
I would love to see these before Christmas because then we'd actually have a hope of seeing them in decent quantities. Alas, Wave 2 is just barely hitting up here in Canada so I doubt we'll see these soon, if at all. Although, back East they're just now getting PRiD Deluxe wave 2, so maybe there's hope.
