After all the recent confusion about two different JP Artfire toys (which was now dismissed as being false), Million Publishing have posted up (http://millionhero.jp/tfg2012/artfire.html) some photos of their exclusive Artfire toy.
The figure comes with Nightstick (targetmaster redeco) and Sparks (Micron redeco).
It may still have people wondering why they used the Grapple mould (with the hook), but when the two guns are attached to the hook, the rest of it looks more like an extendable ladder... which the Inferno mould didn't have. (it just had a "water cannon" missile launcher)
The pre-order cut-off is July 21st (for those in Japan, and who bought the Generations book), and the toy is shipped out in December.
There is an interesting photo about halfway down the page, which has all the "old mould" Gen1 Targetmasters*, all with Targetmaster weapons now in Japan (from various promotions or store exclusives).
* in the original 1987 toyline, Targetmasters in Japan and America were either old moulds that were modified to hold Targetmaster guns, or new moulds. Hasbro had 5 old moulds (Hotrod, Kup, Blurr, Cyclonus, Scourge) and Takara had 2 (Stepper, Artfire).
Here's hoping we now get new toys for the "new mould" Targetmasters.
