The first wave of retro Headmaster "reissues" have been found at US retail (Walmart exclusive).
I think that these are not coming here.
The Galactic Odyssey Botropolis pack (2 DLX & 4 Micros) is out in Taiwan, ahead of its February 15th release date in America.
Wave 2 of the RED toys are out in America already (Arcee & Cheetor). We didn't get wave 1 here, so we probably won't get these here as well.
Not sure where to put this, but there appears to be a packaging variant for the first wave of Kingdom Deluxe toys - one type has a cardboard hook at the top (for hanging on store pegs) that as box deco printed on it, while the other type is just a clear plastic hook. The cardboard hook is not as strong, and once they get damaged or folded, they can't hold the weight of the toy on the store pegs anymore... but maybe the plastic hooks are being used less due to their intention of using less plastic in the packaging.
There was also an example shown of two different ways that the Warpath toy was packaged inside the box.
A new Rescue Bots Feature Bots toy has been found in America, at a Target - Bumblebee.
The Feature Bots are about 50% larger than the Rescan range, and transform. It was introduced in 2019, and so far there have only been six toys (including this Bumblebee).
Since it doesn't have the new Classic Heroes packaging, this must have been planned for release last year, and ended up being delayed. It was a surprise to suddenly show up, as previous waves have been listed on Entertainment Earth, and this one wasn't there (they still only have the first four waves listed).
More of wave 2 Kingdom has been released, with the Core class (Starscream & Megatron) being found in Germany.... of all places.
2021 version of Ectotron Ecto-1 found at Toys R Us in Singapore. This had also been found in US (Target exclusive) in December.
Wave 2 Retro Headmasters now out in America.
These should be in Australia, sometime after the middle of the year... so if you are impatient, track them down from overseas while they are out.
