So, I was walking through the toy aisles at a nearby Walmart (as one does), and they still have the cardboard 4-sided display up for ONE figures, and it occurred to me: the Prime Changers are pretty much the movie's main line, and we've only got 2 of the film's 4 main characters in it. Elita-1 and D-16/Megatron are completely absent. I know we are getting Studio Series figures soon, but it just strikes me as odd that they wouldn't have Prime Changer figures out close to the release of the movie.

Has any further Prime Changer releases been announced, or is that it?
By and large, Hasbro has stopped communicating details for their “kids lines” through collector channels. About the only time we know about new stuff is when a retail listing gets leaked or retailers put stuff up for order.

I seem to want to recall listings for, like, 6 or 7 figures early on, but my attempts of googling only came up with 5 (the Quintesson Commander ended up as “Platoon Commander” or something like, separate from the rest of the Prime Changer listings). I probably misread or mixed up some of the assorted “Changer” assortments.
Which would mean we’ve seen all there is. Unless the toys are doing a LOT better than the film, I don’t foresee another round of product for the spring.

I personally expected a Megatron and Starscream (derived from Sentinel Prime) to round out the little line, but I guess that doesn’t look like it’s happening…

I mean, soon is a relative term. I feel fairly confident in saying we're getting Studio Series Elita-1 sooner than, say, Studio Series Leader-1 or Cy-Kill, for instance (both of whom severely need screen-accurate updates, but seem bizarrely passed over by Hasbro...)
