This figure and Starscream are the two figures I am looking forward to most in the line. They did an amazing job the first time, but this is even more amazing. I can't wait :)

I didn't need a video to sell me on this toy but the transformation was nice to finally se because I could NOT figure it out for the life of me...

Absolutely amazing, its so accurate and things peg in everywhere! With all the panels and rotating going on I was fearing there would be loss in stability but that does not appear to be the case. I will be very hard pressed to not buy this the instant I see it.

I missed out on the first Leader Prime so this is great for me. I did pre-ordered the MA-21 figure from A3U but that didn't fall thru. By the looks of it though, I think this is a better figure.

If Takara puts chrome on that mold, I'm going to faint.

If that's infact the case, I clearly will have to just buy it. Because as it currently stands, I'll definitely wait for clearance or the premium version.

Ditto! I'm going to resist buying it when it comes out and wait for the Premium version to come out!!

The premium version of this figure will be stunning... but I don't think I can wait that long...

I think it was a mistake to create the Premium Line. As nice as they are, the expectation of a Premium Line 6 months down may cannibalize initial release sale. Worse yet, around the time of release, the regular versions go on clearance. Why can't they just make it premium right from the getgo?

Agreed.

Especially since given the economy, I'm skeptical we'll see a Premium figure.

It looks fantastic, but Hasbro's consistent one-upping with every new version of the figure, I'm gonna have to wait in this to see what comes about with regards to any sort of premium version. I may ultimately just settle on this one, but I'm not going to pay initial prices for it. Will wait for a sale or something.
