I have two reissues of this guy already, so I can pass. But maybe if it sells well there will be more, more interesting ones..

So its real. Whats the deal? I mean thats ........ odd right? Wal*Mart exclusive in the US, see above (posts moved to the G1 reissues thread) I have two reissues of this guy already, so I can pass. But maybe if it sells well there will be more, more interesting ones.. I've got the Japanese Transformers Collection one with original guns and Targetmsters: that's a pretty definitive set.

Kapow FB says it is the first, so presumably more planned.

Depends on how successful this one is I guess.
I chucked a pre-order in. Simply because the last reissue had Rodimus on it, and not Hot Rod. Plus it's still the best Hot Rod toy we've had*.

*Honourable mention to Micromaster Hot Rodimus.

Hmmm. If it popped up in a shop I would find it hard to resist.

The hated stickers!!! Did previous re-issues have the stickers pre-applied? I want to say yes but my memory could be faulty.

IIRC some had some applied (The Transformers Collection "Dreamwave Book Reissues", Star Convoy) but all reissues have had stickers

The only Micromaster reissue is Hot Rodimus isn't it?

Micromaster combiners?

The Encore line you had to put the stickers on yourself, iirc.

Looking at the photos again, those are the guns from the TFC 13 reissue with the stepped handles that can be held be 4mm or 5mm hands.
So it looks like he has 5mm hands and engine hole and could hold his Targetmaster.

Devastator looks to be an English version of Encore 20. All four of those Minibots were in Encore 10 of which Pipes misses out tfwiki.net/wiki/Transformers_EncoreStarscream is slightly more interesting as I can see the bonus Megatron gun from Transformers Collection 9 in there tfwiki.net/wiki/Starscream_(G1)/toys#The_Transformers_CollectionThe blue however is closer the original toy's blue and the canopy is grey. Stickers not tampos - missing symbols on the wings. Phil does not at present have a G1 Starscream

Minibots and Devastator go on the list. Starscream depends on the size of the missiles.

Post by reilly2040 on Jul 6, 2018 10:16:17 GMT
Oo. I regretted missing out on previous minibot reissues, so those'll be a must buy for me!

Post by Andy Turnbull on Jul 6, 2018 10:16:55 GMT
Definitely in for the Minobots.
Starscream is a maybe. Devastator...we'll see.

Ah, it's the oversized ones. I can skip that Starscream then, I'd be interested in switching for the old style version tho.

I have missed out on Devastator when previously re-issued. I am tempted. Will wait for more details.
