The toys featured in this image are:
- Predacons
- Insecticons
- Tripticon
- Deathsaurus (Victory)
- Mindwipe (Headmaster)
I'd be very interested in the last 2. I hope they are. Can't quite tell what the figure just out of shot is on the right, anyone know?
Interesting, I still don't have a Trypticon. He's one of the motorized Transformers I actualy like.
And if they are going to Mindwipe then they oughta do Chromedome too.
Trypticon is cool, but I own a pristene original with his box. But if it turns out to be true, great news for those that want him. And I would hope they would do more of the Headmasters, they are a pain to get. Well for me anyway :pQuote:

Trypticon is a new one... perhaps with his inclusion in WFC the interest is now there.
If this is true, I need to save up badly..
Hmm... certainly interesting. I wonder if the rumors will hold true about sixshot.Quote:

Deszaras makes it for me!
My G1 Trypticon is in too good condition to get another but I would get a Mindwipe as mine has the broken fist tab issue.
Could go for Mindwipe. Not a bad place to start collecting G1 figures.
Deathsaurus is the only thing I need from that list. Would be nice :D
damn I want all of 'em, except insecticons happy with mah TFC ones
Would be all over them bar the insectacons. Have the TFC and Hasblow ones.
Reissue Deathzaras + Trypticon = http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y22...stnothappy.jpg
I have a Trypticon, but I'd definitely get a reissue too cos mine's missing the smaller robots and accessories. Then I can display one in robot mode the other in city mode like I do now with my original and reissue Metroplexen! :D
While I'm still hoping for that Sixshot reissue that was mentioned when we first got rumours of him and Predaking back in January, I'm still glad that we might get a chance at Trypticon.
Actually it's looking like I might get a few of these and maybe what with a reissue of Deathsaurus there might be a chance that they will think about reissuing Star Saber maybe?
That would be pretty cool I think, cause I wouldnt mind one but not at a really huge price the originals would go for.
That's not a G1 transformer. It's something else.Quote:

It's hard to tell, what with being blurry, small and cut off, but my first instinct was that it's a recolour of the original Demolishor mould in black/dark blue and white. And if these are reissues, there are definitely a few more interesting choices in there than the usual dross.Quote:

I think you all got punk'd.
Makoto Ono at TFW2005 says it's a photo from BotCon Japan 2000.
Unfortunately, it looks like this a fake of sorts; some guy on TFW is confirming it's a picture from Botcon Japan 2000. (post 47)
Well I suspected something like that might be the case, but no harm in retaining the hope that Predaking might get a reissue sometime this year.
At least we still have Piranacon :)
Still, it is sorta silly not to reissue Trypticon, considering Metroplex is an encore and all...
Ah wells, there was always a faint hope :p
Well that explains the quality of the photograph :pQuote:

Yeah. Too good to be true.Quote:

I don't really know. We don't know if they still have those molds but something tells me that if they did have them, we would have already seen them as they seem to 'recycle' several of the same molds for every reissue series.Quote:

No. Rather, I'd say it reinforces this list:Quote:

The only one not yet announced is Sixshot.
Actually Hybrid Style 01 didn't get a re-release, only 02. Probably just the original rumour got it slightly wrong though.
