Just revealed today:
http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/takara-transformers-masterpiece-cheetor-revealed-at-tokyo-toy-show-2016/35583/
It's hard to get a real feel for the toy without the paint deco (the cheetah spots will make or break this toy), but the actual toy's design looks really good. They figured out how to get his cheetah paws to criss-cross-applesauce when he's in robot mode (the 1996 toy did not do this; it was a contention of his animation design) and the cheetah head sculpt looks to capture his CGI look very accurately.
Odd that we're already at a point where they're commemorating Beast Wars characters this way, but at least the people who always complain about all the G1 love can finally shut up and be happy for once.
