I have a couple OP lines selected from Momataro -- I selected a small beefsteak OP Momataro, similar in shape and size to Odoriko. The flavor is very similar to the F1 hybrid, and the plants are similarly vigorous.

Also, I've seen reference to an OP version of Momotaro from time to time, don't ask me where b'c I don't remember. Do you know anything about that OP version?
