Beast Hunters toys in Japan

[griffin]

Some listings have appeared, showing that Beast Hunters toys are coming to Japan... which might mean some unreleased Arms Micron toys (beyond this months items) might have been axed to make way for the new series of toys. The release date (by the Singapore source) is April.

The stand-out item is a Voyager Shockwave... so should be a new mould to the FOC Deluxe toy.

This link has the following items from a Singapore dealer (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-prime-39/takara-beast-hunters-listings-voyager-shockwave-confirmed-176690/)...
01 Hunter Optimus Prime (voyager)
02 Dragotron (Predaking) (voyager)
03 Shockwave (voyager)
04 Hunter Bumblebee (deluxe)
05 Hunter Bulkhead (deluxe)
06 Hunter Wheeljack (deluxe)
07 Hunter Starscream (deluxe)
08 Hunter Soundwave (deluxe)

I've removed the item codes, until it can be verified. Since there is a "G" involved in the series code (and below with the EZ series), the Japanese name for this second series probably starts with that letter.


While this link has the EZ (Cyberverse sizes) listed (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-prime-39/beast-hunters-japan-ez-collection-first-listings-176692/)...
(there weren't any more EZ toys left unreleased from Arms Micron)
EG-01 Convoy
EG-02 Bumblebee
EG-03 Prowl
EG-04 Smokescreen
EG-05 Hound
EG-06 Tank Megatron
EG-07 Starscream
EG-08 Airachind

Note that the list above includes a few names that suggests the inclusion of several Generations Legends toys being re-released in this new series.
