Actoys has posted new in package images of the upcoming Transformers Dark Of The Moon Leader Class Jetwing Optimus Prime.

This figure is exclusive to Takara Tomy, and the base figure is ROTF Buster Optimus Prime without the shinny silver paint job. This is confirmed from the 2 gas tanks that able to transform to hand gun are present in this figure.






The figure is expected to hit Japanese retails at the end of July 2011.

Seibertron, Ultimate Transformers Resourse!

It's exclusive for now, but I wouldn't be surprised if we receive at least the core figure as a store exclusive somewhere here in the States.

Oh man. I want this.

Oh damn! How much do you think this costs?
I'm definitely getting this when it hits singapore!
I've yet to get that version of prime!

Most likely $120 or so.

Buster Prime on his own went for about $80.00 after import, with this massive accessory piece, I could see it easily going for $120.00

We've had the core figure; that's just RotF Prime with a new trailer... thing.

We haven't had this one. This has the transformable gun, plus the redesigned chest. Might even have the redesigned arms (like the CGI), so technically, no. We don't have this one.

My wallet is going to hate me.

This is the first movie line in which I'll be buying some of the Japanese figures.

Do we know for sure the gas tanks can turn into the gun?

Amazing figure ! It seems I will add both Hasbro's and Takara's DOTM Ultimate/Leader OPs to my collection.

If you look closely at the back of the box, you'll see a pic in the upper right corner that looks like a removeable gas tank, so it looks like it.

Now for some out of the box shots

I hate when people post such things WITHOUT taking picture of the ACTUAL figurine.(OUT OF THE BOX) -.-

Waiting for the shiny repaint.

Unless they just release the wings, im not getting another ROTF prime cos i have buster already. and butterfly prime looks better than this (in powered mode) IMO

This one ,this is the DOTM figure i want .Why oh why can't Hasbro release this one .I guess we have the new Voyager Class Prime

I was hoping that it would have buster primes paint

This. Buster Prime looks better than this one without the jetpack, and if I wanted a jetwing Prime, I'd get one where the pieces form a trailer. Unless a mighty trailer for ROTF Prime is made, I guess its the Ultimate for me.

Hey all, Before you make up your mind to buy this figure, Let me remind you that there are/were some flaws about this figure.

Why not to buy.

1: No moveable fingers.
2: Green light lights up in Head. "While saying i am Optimus Prime"
3: Transparent windows.
4: No crome or metallic paint.
5: Leg and arms articulation is very less.
6: Smokestacks are short.

Why to buy.

1: Mechtech and Mechalive gears technology together in this figure.
2: Mechtech Jetwing pack.
3: Modified chest.

Now it is up to you if you want to buy. If you dont have this figure then buy it on sight. If you have the ROTF Leader OP figure then think again, You can get another leader class figure in that amount of cash.
BTW, Does this figure have any Mechtech port?

Same, im sticking with my buster. and i guess they could drill 5mm holes for mechtechs XD

How are you so sure of the 'why not to buy' part? Have you seen this thing in real life? or do you have pictures of it that shows that?

Actually, all the cons are present in the regular ROTF voager

Actually if you own ROTF leader class buster optimus prime you will easily find out the difference between these 2 figures. I saw the youtube video too. I am not sure of 1 thing and that is if this figure has any mechtech ports.

For this one, I want the actual trailer, I will wait for Hasbro's version.

As in wait for hasbro's ultimate prime or their (unlikely) release of the voyager? Cos ive seen Ultimate prime on display and the trailer is wayyy of scale... its too wide. Same goes for prime in alt mode.
