December JP (and HK) Items

[griffin]

The December items are still a little way off from being released in Japan, but I just wanted to get the list ready for anyone else (like me) planning to chase up some pre-orders, or were curious to know what to look out for after their release. (it's also odd that the December items are NOT being released on the same day - so I've listed dates for reference... they should not be relied on though)
I've also thrown in some known HK items, for anyone who preorders their JP & HK items from the same sources.

Sandstorm is already out it seems, or at least one person has it, comparing it to the Hasbro version (with quite a few bits coloured differently).

Images of the G25 Go Prime and the Hunter Nemesis Prime, with their boxes. The box of Hunter Nemesis Prime confirms that it isnt part of the mainline, but I still cant tell what it is being released for. (like, a store exclusive?)

Some images of the Generations Megatron & Starscream pack, with their Hasbro versions to show the colour differences.

Also some more images of the Hunter Nemesis Prime (black redeco Voyager BH Optimus), and I still can't tell how this was being released, or where, as it isn't part of the mainline of GO!

Paid for Sandstorm and the Megatron/Starscream pack on Saturday.
Even though Hasbro Sandstorm looks nicer (again, just like Hasbro Springer was better)

The two black redecos from December, with the black redeco from November...



And we say that Hasbro is uninspiring with their endless Bumblebees.

The one in the middle is the only Decepticon, which I guess is a first for Japan... usually the black & aqua redeco is a Decepticon (borrowing from the original RID/CR Scourge colouring of the Optimus mould).
