Only the repaints come without accessories, the originals do however.

You mean orginal molds form DOTM?
And the AOE guys do come with theirs?
Thats what I understood.

Exactly. I'm guessing TakaraTomy doesn't want any MechTech in the Movie Advanced line.

Perhaps they want to make it "unique".

Behind his visor?

where else would they be in his chest?

Sweet Primus! Glass-gas it!

:lol:

(I need to see Pan's Labyrinth...)

That Wheeljack looks pretty good. Shame about the lack of a weapon (I for one love MechTech, mainly because I love universally-usable weapons- for example, my Animated Arcee is wielding a spare pistol from the Energon Combaticon helicopters) but he does still have his 5mm ports, which means he can have a spare weapon. I think G1 Megatron's chromed rifle...thing would look good with him actually. Shame it's kinda hard to find.

*starts drooling over 5mm post weaponry*

Fellow fan and Seibertron board member, duoduotea, has posted his in hand gallery of the TRU Japan exclusive "Rusty" Optimus Prime, as seen during the farm attack at the beginning of Age Of Extinction. Not only does this version of the Evasion Mode Optimus sport a new deco, he also has a remolded head that features Optimus with his trademark battle mask in place so he's ready to charge into battle!

We've mirrored some of the images below, but you can see the full gallery at this link: Here.

Keep your optics tuned to Seibertron.com for the latest in news and updates, plus the best galleries around!

Best Movie accurate Evasion Prime so far.
It doesn't have the black legs and there's a lot of different colours.
Hopefully I'll be able to get this version of him.

Might be my monitor but that looks less like rust and more like the remains of lots of road kill.

by **monstrinhotron** » Fri Aug 08, 2014 4:33 am

ooh, those arms and hips look sore. He should see a doctor about that.

Nope, still a fail.

by **frogbat** » Fri Aug 08, 2014 5:12 am

Thought this would've looked better than these pix show.. the red spots on hips etc look comical.. which is a pity

I have the standard hasbro version and would've liked he came with a faceplate. It lacks paint detailing especially round the legs but he is a great version of prime and might serve as my generations prime for now

thoroughly recommended toy tho

by **TimothyR** » Fri Aug 08, 2014 5:33 am

how nice it must be for japanese fans.. not only do they get the most accurate version thus far, but they also don't need to buy it in a set with two other non aoe toys.. thanks hasbro.. there's nothing i love more than paying an exclusive price for a mold with a paint job that it should've had in the first place, in a set that includes a repaint of a generations figure for a character that wasn'tin the movie, and a repaint of a mediocre figure from the previous movie.. HOW WONDERFUL.

i guess hasbro is just trying to turn people off from buying their products.

wouldn't it have just been easier to throw this version of the mold into the main line and release it world wide?

seriously..

I will definitely be picking this one up or the three pack if I can find him.
I found the Grimlock and Optimus Prime Platinum edition at Kmart - Definitely over priced, but this mold is by far one of my favorites.

You all its pretty obvious Hasbro has "Gimmicks" and "deals" that they do with each of these stores. I am sure TRU paid a good penny to make this an exclusive along with Kmart and others... It gets people to go to their stores and buy vs going to one.

In the end someone is going to buy these... Here in SC everyone seems to be buying all the Deluxes, Voyagers, and Leaders... It can be pretty difficult to find any... Other than some of the double pack Dinbots at TRU.

I hate both bot modes hasbro and talaria version but will still stick preorder with talaria this one is somewhat more screen accurate flames on hasbro are clean and noticeable they should be faded as takara has there's

by **User897** » Fri Aug 08, 2014 9:14 am

What happened to the bullet and shell pock marks, Takara??

News Credits: 456 · by **Sabrblade** » Fri Aug 08, 2014 9:47 am

I'll wait for the Hasbro Platinum Edition since that one attempts movie-accuracy in both modes, whereas this one only attempts it in truck mold (that robot mode deco is a far cry from any of robot mode colors in the movie).
