Predaking 2010 Reissue Confirmed!

I actually would have prefered the new one to be plastic, to have the variation from the last reissue... and to save on shipping costs. But for those yet to have Predaking, the (heavy) metal version and shiny colours will make this one worth getting.
Just be aware that Tantrum (or Headstrong) has trouble standing up in robot mode, from all the weight on its back.

While I can see it being an issue for collectors importing this (long term), it also works in the favour of anyone who pre-ordered it as postage is already paid for. It will be interesting to see if online stores jack up the postage now that we know he's made of die cast...

Indeed, I have just pre-ordered this beauty via AmiAmi, thanks to the advice of Kaiden, at a great price - though I've yet to pay postage.

Could anyone bring to light how much the original Die-Cast G1 Predaking weighs?
This would help some people estimate potential postage costs and would be much appreciated.

I too am sharing your joy 5FDP, as I too have yearned for this team for years but could never afford the insane reissue and secondary market prices!
The Box art looks sweet, to point out a statement from a poster on TFW2005 - It's retro, yet modern!
Add to the fact that this reissue is also going to be the Die-Cast variant and an extremely beautiful new paint job - I am very, very glad I waited for these Ancient Predacons!

The 2004 reissue is die-cast too. And it has more G1-accurate colours. Although this one has the purdy new paint job. All depends on one's personal preference.

Oh! Did it?
I wasn't aware, I thought it was just the plastic version.
Mind you, I couldn't hope to afford that reissue, much as I'd like to, baring in mind the insane prices it fetches.
(That and I like the spiffy new paint job on this one )
