So we have two mystery figures being teased by Takara. One of which seems to be a Super Megatron, the other of which looks like it is Snap Trap from the Seacons combiner team.

Also, we have new pictures of Star Convoy. We now know his inner robot is a G1 Optimus/Convoy. Also his alt mode appears basically unaltered from POTP Optimus Prime which is a real bummer for me.

Star Convoy is up on Hasbro Pulse for preorder in America for preorder. Hopefully, there will be a way for us to get him easily in Australia.

I emailed them ages ago, while they want international shipping options there is simply nothing yet.

Guess its robot kingdom I'll be counting on again

I wouldn’t be surprised if the Generations Select toy was Halfshell (https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Halfshell//) and Snap Trap was still coming in a box set.

Anyone have an old spare micromaster Rodimus they'd like to part with? Because star Convoy is going to need a friend, unless they include one with it.

I've been tossing up between the chronicles and combiner wars versions myself

Combiner Wars, perfect. Can't believe I didn't think of that, lol

Thanks Sinnertwin!

I preordered from Oh My Primus and it was cheaper than a leader class from toyworld (minus postage)

Yeah, I'll be ordering at RK when I get paid next week. Not a great price after the conversion to AUD, but they are quick and reliable.

Looks like Star Convoy might be out, or is in the hands of dealers already, as some in-hand images have (https://news.tfw2005.com/2019/09/27/genertaions-selects-star-convoy-in-hand-images-397116) been posted up on facebook.
