Hi,

I just had an email from my contact in Hong Kong telling me the new Encore figures are in stock and ready to ship. My contact is on ebay under the name Toyspark.

Thanks.

I hope those images from the gallery are the actual encore Trailbreaker/Hoist. They look exactly like the original.

I remembered earlier someone said Encore Trailbreaker would have blue eye and tempo decal. Although it's a nice touch to the cartoon, I still prefer it to be the same as the original release.

BTW: what's that yellow thing/ human inside Encore Trailbreaker? Is that an addition?

The images on TFormers site are not actually of the Encore figures. They are probably the originals or e-Hobby reissues. I got the Encore figures today. Both Encore Hoist & Trailbreaker have blue eyes not red or yellow. The yellow man you are describing is a Diaclone driver, which is not included with the Encore figures.

My camera is broken so I can't offer you pictures. The Encore packaging looks exactly like the other Encore packaging except there is sticker now on the front saying "25 Years".

Just as their Universe counterparts turn up where I shop... (I saw Hound and at least a couple of Cheetors at Wal-Mart yesterday when I bought Cyclonus.)
