APRIL 2015 Japanese (and HK excl) toy items

[griffin]

These are TakaraTomy toys (and maybe some significant licensed items) currently known from official sources, scheduled for release in APRIL in Japan, as well as in Asia (most JP toys are also released through Hasbro Hong Kong).

These monthly lists are archived on the Transformers Checklist here if you need to refer to a completed, more-accurate list later (if anything is found out later, these monthly lists won't be updated after their month ends).

Dates and details can change at any time - Approximate yen prices listed are just a rough guide to their retail price in Japan.
(posting corrections or additions are greatly appreciated - I will try to update as often as I can)
