Early into the DOTM toyline and we havve already have multitude of prime releases, most prominent of them all is of course deluxe prime, ultimate prime and retool jetwwing prime. With so many new prime moulds already out one cannot help bu to wonder will TAKARA invest in another new mould for their suppose SUPREME Version of DOTM prime? So do you think TAKARA will:-

a) Repaint and perhaps slight retool Jetwing prime
b) Repaint ultimate prime in gun metal colours or
c) PRoduce an entirely new mould
for their upcomming supreme optimus prime release?

I thought DA-28 "Striker" OP was already confirmed. You know, the one that's supposedly a triple-changer [alt, bot, stealth modes], and includes a BFG and shield?

I think they might be referring to Jetwing Prime, as its box has him listed as a Supreme Class like Devastator.

It may also be the next Takara Leader remold that was announced, that has his new gun and trailer-shield.

There are 3 out there (or in the works). 1) jetpack rotf prime 2) remould rotf prime with new BFG 3) ultimate prime (same as US, more paint (?))

I'm so confused. Between Hasbro and Takara, there are just too many versions of OP in this line.

Right now I have these confirmed numbers for the Takara releases:

DA-03 Optimus Prime with MechTech Trailer
Retool of the American Voyager, with trailer

DA-15 Jetwing Optimus Prime
Retool of the RotF Leader with Jetfire parts.

DA-17 Space Optimus Prime
Identical to the US Voyager

DA-28 ??? Optimus Prime
The Leader retool, or maybe even a new mold with the new gun

Finally, there's the Ultimate Prime, which currently has no number, thus no confirmed Japanese release, the same goes for Fireburst Optimus Prime. The Deluxe will be included with the Chronicles set.

Don't be jumping to conclusions now. It's true TakaraTomy wouldn't give entire new molds for the regular toyline, but who knows?
