Seibertron.com member Starscream has just informed us of some new images he's come across revealing Transformers Animated Voyager figures in an alternated type of packaging.
These images show the Voyager class figures in a Leader Class type box and in robot mode, different from the previous release of the figures in a wider box featured in their alternate modes.
No other details on the figures is available at the time of posting.
You can view the original listings for these figures here and here.

I am guessing these are our first look at international releases of these figures. Similar to the Battle damaged movie prime.

Really? I'm looking and I'm seeing the same divets and cut-in that I expect from Animated packaging. the only difference is in the pacement of thge characted image and name tag, other than that they are quite similar.

I think by Megatron the decision was easy: his cybertron mode alt look crappy.

More importantly, I will finally be able to see if a particular Starscream has a decent face paintjob!

I think I posted about it on here, and you are correct. The seller who had it on ebay was yu_giland. I passed on it around this summer and wish I wouldnt have now. Havent seen him since but maybe we'll get them too.
