    Blaster and Perceptor have been reissued by Takara so I see possibility of this happening. But Trypticon .. he has not been reissued so I am thinking this is a massive rumor.

    Hasbro would not reissue a figure before Takara

    Trypticon would be sensational... back in the 80's Target was having a sale and Trypticon was going for $20 (or something like that... it was really cheap either way)!!! My mother wouldn't let me have it Of course now I am going to pay a premium but I will finally have him, YAY!

    A varient of Trypticon was used for Beast Wars smething in Japan, so there must be some form of him kicking around somewhere.

    Ooor, Maybe its a new Titan to go with new Metroplex?

    Trypticon and Blaster are 2 of my G1 collection that I am looking at upgrading, I guess I dont have to look that hard for them.

    Trypticon is my only interest and would be bought faster than you could say "Socialist Democratic Federated Republic of Carbombya"

    Sweet!. Yes to Trypticon! I sure hope Takara revives the Encore line .... it just died after Fort Max....start it off with a Trypticon and they've got themselves a good start off hehehe.

    Sounds as though G1 Trypticon reisssue is a very popular choice.

    Out of curiosity, what was the RRP of G1 Trypticon back in the day?

    Trypticon may not have been reissued, but it's not like (as far as we know) the mould is lost. It was last used in the 90s for BW2 Gigastorm. As to Hasbro reissuing it before Takara, who can say? Stranger things have happened.

    I'd consider getting a Trypticon reissue (my G1 Trypticon is missing a lot of accessories ), but I don't need another Blaster or Perceptor.

    Hasbro did reissue the Seacons which TakaraTOMY have yet to do.
