No offense meant, but i don't think their info's wrong - isn't it saying that Amazon has updated with pics of *other* toys releasing in July, plus Devastator in November?

It stated "アマゾンJPに7月発売のTF商品と" ("Transformer product on sale at Amazon Japan in July"). But anyway, now Nakashi's editted that line, so if you take a look now it says "11月19日発売"; so now they've corrected it to the November 19 embargo date. It was probably just a simple mistake. Anyway, they're reporting Nov. 19 now so it's a moot point. (^_^)

Note: I think I can see where the mistake might've come from. Underneath the passage it then says "以下、7月発売のアイテム" (below are items on sale in July) then proceeds to list all the toys coming out in July (including Jetwing OP ) -- I'm guessing Nakashi must've accidentally got those months confused and stated July when he meant November because he was probably thinking ahead about what he wanted to type next

I saw the news the other day and was advised about this last week from a source.
I am so excited I bought the Crazy devy add on kits so I can finally have a mint Devastator.

The best news in all this is that Encore continues to grow (even though its still 5 months to go...)

The information I am hearing is that they have green-light the next 10 reissues to come. But they will be staggered. The will reassess at #25.
Rumors are floating about Grimlock/Dinobots. I have also heard that Scorponok and Fortress Maximus are potentials (fort max #25).... will confirm once i confirm the news from my always awesome source.

If the source is correct, I wonder what that will do for the insane prices of Fort Max's and Scorponok's ?

I hope you are absolutely 100% correct on all the above information. That would just be awesome!!!

That would be a great FU to the rumoured ko fort max makers

BOOYEH! Tets loves minty fresh Constructicons. And LONG LIVE ENCORE!!

Scorponok would be very welcome in my house!!

I'd buy a multi-coloured eHobby set on sight.
As for more encores, come on Trypticon...

Firstly, I couldn't be happier. But I can't fathom why they wouldn't have done this to coincide with ROTF though. The timing seems bizarre. Possible complications?

Based on the fact it had yet to appear since then, I had basically given up hope, and had just added a saved search to my eBay account because I desperately want a G1 Devastator, so yet again, I'm utterly thrilled by this news. This is also compounded by the same realization as others: Encore is continuing!

I'm hoping the quality is better than that of Encore Bruticus, but I don't think this mold has been used as much as that one has.

Lastly, yet again, this is further proof against the fallacy that TakTom does not make molds that have been KO'd. Hopefully, the trend will continue.
