[griffin]

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

These monthly lists will be archived on the 2021 Transformers Checklist if you need to refer to these listings later (if anything is found out later, because these monthly lists won't be updated after their month ends).

I think with TakaraTomy officially revealing new products a week into each month, it will mean these monthly topics will be done a little after that.

So this month, they revealed a number of March items, but two of them were October items that have been delayed 5 months (MPM Optimus and Netflix Cheetor). I wonder if this well be an ongoing thing, with the global delays in production and shipping.

We finally see what KD-14 was meant to be, as the number was skipped from October to November, and it (Tigatron) is coming out in March... possibly another item planned for October that has been delayed in production.

Similarly, we finally get Black Zarak listed in Japan, despite it being a Japanese GEN Selects (not Hasbro GEN Selects), that was already listed ages ago in Hasbro markets. Since the Japanese release is March, I would expect the Hasbro release date of December will also end up being March or April.

The Tenseg display bases are all regular release items, which surprised me, as I had expected those complex collector items would be TTMall exclusives.
