but import or not, sure looks like a "premium" version that they weren't going to be doing.

Yup, and as more time goes by, I become more convinced that RotF won't get a premium line at all

2. How long will it be around for?
I think I'll get it if it's around for long enough.

Umm... There ISN'T a Premium line PLANNED for ROTF.

Good. I'd rather not buy a figure and find out they're releasing a better, similarly/identically-priced version later.

Now why does you saying that make me think of an idea that no-one here or at Hasbro would agree with? E.G. imagine if you got a figure and then a better version comes out (ex: Ironhide and Recon Ironhide) Imagine if you can then take a certain label or a stamp or the box itself and when you do that, you get the figure for less than the full/original price. To me, that sounds good. What about anyone here?

Nope, you're right Hasbro no Premium line at all this time around.
Just an Extra-Ultra Premium line that isn't simply the same price as the originals, nope, this Premium line features Import-Cost Action Features and the ability to burn approximately $40 of consumer money for those that import now instead of waiting for the inevitable US release that you won't tell us about until it's too late.
AKA: Why Japan has a market that is able to appreciate nice things while the rest of the world is a cesspool of unrefined idiocy.
(Really? So when product is targeted at a market, US consumers said, "We think the crappy non-chrome-y, no weapon release suits us juuuuuuuust fine.)
Stated for the record: I don't actually care. But I think the annoyance some people will have over this is TOTALLY justified.
[and I used to be such a nice guy...]
