While that doesn't imply much, around the same time an image was being circulated very similar to other ones used internally by Takara Tomy, most recently seen with Legacy Evolution Commander class Armada Optimus Prime. The image appears to show Kingdom Optimus Primal and Megatron in colors very similar to those used on the Masterpiece versions of the characters based on the CGI cartoon. The image also says reproduction is prohibited until March 9 linking them back to the original tweet. Text across the top of the image also refers to a versus set so we may be looking at a two pack.
Premium Finish comes at a premium price, let us know if you're willing to double (or triple) dip on these two for the price on the Seibertron Energon Pub forums!

I don't think I'll buy them, but if they TRULY look good, I may consider it.
So far, the only PF I bought was Movie Ratchet because ironically, it was the cheapest way to get him. All the other weren't "premium" enough for me.

Then he got upgraded to Netflix primal, which was slightly better.
And now we get a third redeco which will be marginally better then netflix primal?
Doubtless Takara has done its homework to see if this PF release would be profitable, and found an affirming answer.
Sometimes i don't understand this fandom.

The fandom had nothing to do with it, I don't think anyone was asking for this, at least not this Primal, but if it's out there people will certainly buy it if they think it's worth getting. Compared to the Netflix version Primal probably wont change that much, I think they might add some gray fleck to his fur to look more like the cartoon, but Megatron is straight up based on the original cartoon with a more uniform dark purple, blue upper arms and crotch and green thighs. Pretty sure he's using the teeth baring face finally.

You misspelled "corporate."
And it's easy to understand. The goal is to make MONEY.

Not sure about that.
We need to see the real HD pictures before judging.
