[griffin]

These are TakaraTomy toys (and maybe some significant licensed items) currently known from official sources, scheduled for release in DECEMBER 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 Transformers Checklist (link to come) 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).
Some recent listings for reference...
