As far as UD-01 Megatron, if it does indeed have a more movie accurate paint job, I may be interested. If the sculpting of the figure has been updated and improved, I'm definitely interested.

Thats exactly what I thought when I read the description.
I imagine they will treat Jetfire the same way that they did Ultra Magnus in RID (authough without a robot mode of course) and have the figure break up as armor pieces that fit on various spots on Prime.
Also I wonder what size classes these new figures will be. Megs seems to be listed at 3,499 yen, where the Prime/Jetfire pack is 5,999. So they're probably smaller than their leader class figures.

I think that Prime is going to be the standard Prime and Jetfire will be a slightly scaled down version so that things don't appear so bulky. With the price listing for it i'm going with they're pricing it the same as a "Perfect Edition", just a Prime with an interactive trailer type module.

Man I hope that isn't going to be the new trend then, where Prime will just start wearing his underlings like in Armada.

If they fix Megatron's face I'll be happy....his face was way too ugly in the new movie and toys.

I think this Megatron will be a new mold.

Me likey the sound of this, it sounds very Hybrid Style Formers. If so, and at a good price I will have to look at this.
Hopefully prime wont be as Fat as he was at the end of the film, if so Ive got a new cast for Weird Al's Fat song

I hope so.
Is it possible for Hasbro or whomever is making these toys to redo the molds?

His alt mode really isn't that great anyway.
