Good friends XyberToys have sent out their latest newsletter with information on Transformers Collection #6 Megatron’s re-release. There is also news on MP-03 Starscream’s limited availability and wave 3 of the Titanium line.
The 2nd ‘Binaltech’ figure from the Kiss Player line is now in stock, Hot Rodimus with Xiao Xiao. Hot Rod-imus looks great in the Ford GT car mode, and still comes with his G1 colour scheme too.
The 3rd wave of the Transformers Titanium 6″ figures are in Optimal Optimus, Scourge and Jetfire.
Hasbro has steadily improved the quality of this figure line, and is very evident in the paintwork and moulding on these new figures.
But just as they are doing better in some areas, Hasbro has pulled another stunt by delaying the release of the much anticipated Alternators Ravage and Rumble till January 2007. For those customers with pre-orders for these figures, your orders are still confirmed and you are assured your stock when they are released by Hasbro. We will be increasing our stock order for these 2 figures, so those who have not pre-ordered, here’s your chance now to secure them.
Some minor updates on other items
Those who have purchased a MP-03 Starscream, congrats! As Japan now is officially out of stock of this item, and this item has only seen a single production run with no plans for another run in sight. This Starscream would be a rarity in a short time to come.
We will be getting the new Hasbro Transformers Classics 2-packs and US store exclusives like Ultra Magnus / Skywarp 2-pack, so be sure to look out for our pre-orders.
There has been alot of buzz lately on the news about Takara’s #06 G1 Megatron Reissue, and there’s word that it’s a rumour and there was a report that Tom-Tak has denied it will be reissue by them.
Since we are taking orders for them, we decided to dig for more information from our suppliers and industry insiders
Seems that the reissue is still confirmed, but it would be done as a ‘custom’ reproduction for the Asian market, and is a project approved by Tomy, not Takara (since Tomy now owns Takara, they have the say).
So with that, we would still be receiving pre-orders for this item, and would comfortably assure customers that it will still be in stock sometime December.
