Two new Classics 3-packs from Hasbro Asia

[griffin]

Said to be similar in release to the recent Seeker 3-packs by Hasbro Asia (in Hong Kong), these two are apparently being released in South Korea... so I'm not sure if they will be available through the normal Asian sources of Hasbro Asia toys.

The two upcoming sets are (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/generations-classics-44/hasbro-asia-transformers-decepticons-autobots-specialists-3-packs-178241/)...

Decepticon set - Galvatron, Octane, Astrotrain. (all are triplechangers, or intended to be)
Autobot set - Hound, Mirage, Ironhide.

No release date or costs known yet either.

Great news, especially on the Autobot pack as all three are great molds and a lotta people missed out on Ironhide. I do hope they improve on the decos for Ironhide and Galvatron at least.

Autobot pack seems nice. I need Octane and Astrotrain, but I hope they're in nice colours. (I'm looking at you Astrotrain ;))

I need a classics Galvatron but I've heard it's pretty bad. :(

Didn't mind classics Galvatron at all, I wouldn't be put off getting the pack because of him. Plus he's cool to have if you've got Generations/Classics Scourge & Cyclonus for group shots. :)

I'm curious to see if they do the white or the purple deco for Astrotrain.

If they follow the trend set by the Ace & Elite sets, it'd be a safe bet we can expect cartoon accurate colour schemes.

And premium price tags.

We can has Ravage with Hound still...?

I shudder to think what the mold degradation will be like on Mirage. He's had a few runs since 2006.

[Gouki]

Hmmm. I need an Ironhide and a Hound. And a new Mirage wouldn't be bad, my current one is a bit loose. Very interested at the moment.

$129.95 a set.

For those interested TFsource has preorder's available now.

I wouldn't say he's bad. He's not overtly fantastic, but he's not bad. :)

he is bad. Megatron a voyager sized toy gets reformatted into a mess of a deluxe toy.

[kurdt_the_goat]

The reformat got rid of Megatron's awful shell/wings too though :)

they were awesome! they made him fly higher than ever before! :p

[Sky Shadow]

If they recoloured Ravage as Steeljaw for the Autobot set they'd sell more.
