The Planet Iacon facebook page has posted some images of the Transformers Dark of the Moon Voyager Class Optimus Prime Lucky Draw figure that is on display at RoboRobo Toy Shop. One had to purchase $100.00 worth of Transformers items and mail in an entry form in order to be eligible.

Shiny.

I'm not sure I believe that thing is optimus prime...........it's so so so so tacky.

Mmmmm, Looks a little too gaudy for my tastes. That, and I don't have 100 bucks to blow on Transformers...My collection is sad. I dub thee Gaudimus Prime.

Wait wait... Hasbro is doing the Lucky Draw?! It's Hasbro Asia, but still...

Slag

So is this gold plated or solid gold? (Minus the hands, of course.)

I am having Gold Plastic Syndrome flashbacks with those hands...

They take the worst movie line toy ever and slap gold over it. What a joke!

Indeed. It isn't a mold that I would think deserves a Lucky Draw iteration.

I noticed on the form that it says $100 purchased from Roborobo. That's a collector store... But I guess it's now endorsed by Hasbro, since they (Roborobo) set up a huge store at Cybertron Con. Damn, now there's competition since that's where i source my hard to find items.

A shiney turd is still....a turd...

Solid gold is always a no-go. It's merely gold-colored chrome, but still subject to scratching and flaking. And the hands should be fine, as you may never get to touch anyway
