    They will just be examples of what was released in the past 25 years...

    That page isn't about reissues. It's about the way TF toy technology has evolved in the past 25 years.

    True but I have a feeling that they wouldn't have shown those particular toys if they had no intention of reissuing them.

    - We already know they have the Constructicon molds.
    - We know Chromedome is popular in Japan

    However Superion does not fit that category as we haven't seen any release of the molds since G2.

    I'd love all of those seeing as how I've never owned any of them, the three listed toys of course.

    I really don't want fort max, it would cost too much and I'm really not a fan of it at all, as in I don't want to own it. I've always liked metroplex better.

    We've never seen a release of the Constructicon moulds since G2 either. Or Chromedome since around the same time (Chinese reissues 1993ish).

    My thinking is that given its a 25th anniversary section, why would you waste screen realestate with pictures of transformers you are not going to make money off? If they just needed to show a combiner then why not just show Bruticus since he is already being reissued and it would be good advertising and not wasting the space?

    HasTak has announced that they do indeed have the Constructicon molds but didn't want to reissue them due to all the knockoffs which has flooded the market.

    We don't know if Chromedome's mold is in good enough condition but he may be popular enough to consider a bit of extra effort for 25th anniversary if his mold is not up to scratch but there is no reason to think that it isn't.

    ** MOVIE SPOILERS ** (IF YOU'VE BEEN LIVING IN A CAVE)

    I think in light of the upcoming movie, the reissuing of Devastator is all but a sure thing
