Predaking - 2010 item #7?

[kurdt_the_goat]

Further to my own pretty much baseless speculation...
DrillBIT on TFW has also suggested Predaking as an item in Takara Tomy's 2010 Promotion, with a bit of historical evidence to back it up:

Just a reminder.
When everybody getting hyped up for the Transformers 2010 Campaign there is something that everyone should know.

24 years ago before the broadcast of Transformers 2010 in Japan there was this "Death of Convoy" Campaign. It started with a dead Convoy and introduced Rodimus as the new leader for the show. Transformers 2010 Campaign is simply an updated version of that campaign re-introducing the 2 most important characters from the Autobot side (excluding Primus and Unicron).

Right after the "Death of Convoy" Campaign there was another campaign called "Counterattack of the Destron" featuring Predacon/Predaking. Due to the lack of Destron characters from the 2010 Campaign it is possible for TakaraTomy to launch a separate campaign just for the Destron characters.
There were rumors about a rework for the Predacons / Prediking quite sometime ago.
Galvatron is not in the 2010 Campaign.
If there really is a seperate campaign for the Destron/Deception characters, those 2 will probably be the ones that got picked up.

So don't just save up for the Autobots. Save up for the unknown possibilities as well.

I think Masterpiece Galvatron is still a ways off yet, but i'm pretty convinced Predaking will just be the second to last item besides Rodimus now! Here's hoping

A Masterpiece Predaking would be bloody amazing. Especially if the individual bots are about Alternator/Binal Tech size.

I sincerely doubt Tomy will ever be bothered to produce a Masterpiece Predaking, and I suspect this speculation is about a normal G1 Predaking rerelease, not a Masterpiece.

im still thinking encore seacons

Reissue G1 Predacons was talked about earlier this year along with Sixshot. I expect to see this officially announced before the end of the year if not sooner.

Rumors of a new reissue Predaking has been going around for about a year now. It's very possible but it's yet to happen since the last one.

The most recent rumor list about coming issues included:

- G1 Predaking
- G1 Sixshot
- Classic/Henkei Hound - Coming in July!
- Hybrid Style Galaxy Convoy - Was this re-released?
- Classic/Henkei Optimus Prime - Re-released!
- Encore 12 Metroplex - Re-released!
- Classic/Henkei Cyclonus
- Cybertron/Galaxy Force Primus - Was this re-released?

Cyclonus fits into the concept as well.

Cyclonus fits into the concept as well.

That would be awesome however I doubt they would even have the mold for Cyclonus... he hasn't been re-released since 1987 and I'm sure if they had the mold, we would've seen an encore / reissue by now.

I dunno..............already have the reissue Predacons when they last came out but maybe have another one to open. Sixshot might be alright but again was not ago released and the others are meh!

I just wish they would do something different instead of rehashing the same old thing but things like the Sea-cons reissue, now that was a fantastic surprise.
