Nice paint job on an awesome figure. 
My only nitpick is that the dull grey of the rubber smokestacks and internal chest gears stick out like a sore thumb when the rest of the bare metallic components are nice and silvery or chromed.

Cool idea but I don't think it would ever happen. Why let people pay less when they'll reluctantly pay full price?
Yeah, what happened?

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?

See, I saw this coming. I didn't buy ROTF even when I saw him for £20. I'm glad I waited, because it payed off. And now I can lord over you all with my superior ROTF Prime *toft*
Not really, I'll just look really smug while I transform it
Lesson for today- buy smart, bide your time a little.
EDIT:- Something I forgot the say when I was awe struck earlier. I love the face on this thing! It's pretty accurate, and very nicely sculpted. The attention to detail is amazing, but shame they couldn't have given him blue eye LEDs -_-'

This thing looks awesome. I don't think I am going to buy it, but that idea might change if it comes to the US and I can see it in person. The Maskless face is not what I want, but we'll see. Everything else about it is pure win for me.

This one has really grown on me. I'm really looking forward to getting him in a few weeks (The box with Buster, Ghost Starscream, and the TFC GOW2 guns should be fun to open).
Guess if you're only going to own one ROTF figure, this is it.

Does he makes another sounds or it's the same as the normal leader prime ?

I got the Japanese Megatron from an importstore in Amsterdam, I hope he also gets Buster Prime for a good price.
I'll be getting him, my Premium Movie 1 allready has the faceplate so this one should be good.
Why does Takara do this to us all the time? Why!

For anyone interested, two Japanese reviews of the figure have popped up.
Before checking either site out, be aware that there are possibly NSFW images on the sites due to model/action figure reviews of female characters in very skimpy attire. Visit the links at your own discretion.
The first one at Unoyo's site shows the figure in great detail, noting differences in paint apps and up close shots of the face sculpt,and a side-by-side comparison of Buster OP and normal Leader OP. It also shows the fuel tank gun transformation sequence.
The second one at Otaku Haiyuu shows more pics of Buster OP combined with Leader Jetfire(note that both reviewers chose to use the reversed feet fanmode configuration for the legs).

I absolutely love this figure!!!
Since I found out about this one, I turned my other Prime into "Forest Battle" Prime. Completely Effed him up lol.
I really hope Hasbro gets going and producing these! They will most likely fly off the shelves!
