The images are quite large so users with a slower connection be warned. Some have been shrunken down and mirrored here for easy viewing.
The packaging also confirms that Optimus Prime does indeed combine with Jetfire, but the image of the combined mode has been blacked out.

A cane?

Does the first pic look fake to anyone else? Like they just photoshopped the pic on the back to look like it's the figure in the box?

I thought it looked odd in the huge pics from the source site...I think you're right.

It is just a cut-out they place in the box. They do that when they want to showoff what the finished product will look without having a prototype on hand.

Not just a cane, look at that beard =P
It looks like this fig in alt mode will be good in proportions to universe Silverbolt. It also looks like the alt mode is going to have a lot of bot kibble on the bottom and/or like the first movie's Starscream alt.
And a reminder, you can see the cane in the trailer

As far as the toy goes, I see the robot mode has the obligatory top heavy, chicken leg Starscream look. The Alt mode reminds me of Sky Lynx, an aircraft on top and lots of Junk below. I'm a fan of the Sr-71, but this figure will not grace my curio

We saw ROTF Leader Class Optimus Prime. You show us ROTF Leader Class Jetfire. Yet you won't show both figures in their combined mode. So unfair man, so unfair. Give us all what we want and show all of us their combined mode.

I will be severely disappointed if he is not voiced by Hugh Laurie.

That is a joke, right?
