    Default Japan exclusive re-release (rumor)

    This guy's usually pretty reliable - from TFW

    TFE12 Metroplex (well duh, a bit late on this one!)
    GalaxyForce Primus
    THS01 Galaxy Convoy
    Predaking reissue
    Sixshot reissue
    Henkei Hound
    Henkei Cyclonus
    Henkei Convoy

    I'd say that's some pretty pleasing and expensive news if true!

    Wonder if they are reissues of the orginal product in the same box, but with a Takara Tomy logo .. or a new box under a new line?

    Anyways, looking forward to Preds and Sixshot, and Primus (hoping for the G1 type box of the orginal)

    Though the re-releases are welcome I'd also like to see new reissues.

    liegeprime: I'd say that Encore Predaking should be die-cast metal considering that the previous reissue was metal. I'd be surprised if it were plastic.

    I thought they were re-releasing the same toys as before, not repackaging as encore.

    I'm surprised that even the first reissue was a metal set. Have any other reissues come out as metal variations?

    Same here. Man, the reissue predaking giftset is selling for so much more than a complete vintage set. Though I can understand why - predaking with brand new stickers looks damn awesome @_@

    My guess is $200-$250 for predaking and $80-$90 for sixshot.. again, it depends on whether or not these are rumours and the number of them on the assembly line
