I believe the mouth looks a bit more defined- this could just be the lighting though

Yep. I downloaded this Bludgeon shot and the Hasbro box art and they are the same pict, highlights and all. I hope the final release has the usual excellent Takara paint apps.

Almost all of the Japanese ROTF Line has been US ROTF figs with a sticker on the box. Why start changing now?

I guess since I've never paid any attention to the Takara movie line, I never put two and two together there. Guess you learn something new every day. I won't be holding my breath for a "Henkei-style" Bludgeon.

The first movie line did have a couple Japanese variants:
- MA-03 Bumblebee has the intended translucent plastic, while Hasbro's Classic Camaro Bumblebee used solid colors.
- MA-18 Nightwatch Optimus Prime (and the Argos UK version) does not have the Allspark blue of the US version.
- MA-19 Landmine has a different shade of plastic.
- MD-22 Incinerator was mostly black instead of grey.
