Some new items I found last week while doing up this month's listing, and now showing up on the global news sites, so I can just be lazy and link to their postings...

- another Turbo Change release for the end of October - TC-13 "Strongest Command Set", which has another release of the Battle Command Optimus (third one now, with very little different between the three), packed with two redeco 1-steps - a red/black redeco of the TF4 Drift helicopter and a yellow redeco of the TF4 1960s Bumblebee.
- two new Tomica Dream diecast vehicles out next week - a TF5 Optimus (numbered 148) and Bumblebee (numbered 151).
- four new Metacolle diecast figurines out in October - three are Gen1 robots (Optimus, Megatron, Bumblebee), while one is a double-sided thing, which has the Autobot symbol on one side and the Decepticon symbol on the other.
