We have received confirmation from Hobbylink Japan that Takara will be releasing a Voyager class Bonecrusher and a Leader classStarscream. Starscream will contain die-cast parts. The size of the Leader class Starscream is unconfirmed at this time.
There have been rumors that Takara would release an “Unfrozen” voyager Megatron figure. We have received indications that this is not in the pipeline.

Isn't Bonecrusher a Voyager class figure anyway, or am I mistaken?

Mistaken, but not by much. He's a Deluxe class figure. Personally I thought he deserved at least to be a Voyager. Deluxe just doesn't seem right for him.
Well this is good news, however the likelihood of myself getting Takara figures is slim, so looks like I'll have to stick with the American versions.

I'd be happy to get these guys if they made it across the Pacific/Eurasia. The current Bonecrusher and Starscream seem a bit small for the vehicles they're supposed to be. With some 6 versions of Prime and Megatron already on the go I don't think it's outwith the realms of possibility for these fellas to appear in a later wave.
Unfortunately, I know I won't be able to resist voyager Starscream and deluxe Bonecrusher in the meantime...

So what, every figure will be released in every class by the time they are done?

Voyager class is too small and doesn't have enough detail. A Leader Starscream should look great!

Not soon enough.
Brawl and Bonecrusher are my two favourite movie bots, and it'll be great to have large toys of these two instead of the small deluxe figures.
Don't get me wrong, the deluxe Bonecrusher is great, but a voyager sized one would kick so much ass!
Bus-hating Bonecrusher FTW!

Probably very good. The only thing they might change is the die-cast if any, and they might get rid of certain paint apps like they tend to do. I hope they do release them here, I'll get that Voyager Bonecrusher no matter what, but it would be nice if I didn't have to sell a kidney to afford it.

I just love HLJ! $35 and $65 Australian. I might be able to get these Japanese versions cheaper than the Hasbro versions that turn up in my local shops!
I payed about $50 for Classics Voyagers locally, so $35 before postage sounds like a very good price.

Now this is interesting! I would love to get my hands on that leader class Starscream! Considering the size of a leader class figure and the die cast parts, does anyone think it might be on par with some of the Masterpiece figures (but cost a bit less)?

A leader class SS? no mater waht you say, but I'll get that! It's a cool design even if I don't like it as SS.

Of the movie figures, Starscream is the one I'm least sold on. I can't imagine that a forty dollar figure will change my mind much. 
I stick to the cheaper figures anyway unless something really cool catches my eye and I've never really understood the appeal of diecast parts (yay! it's a metal toe and pelvis!), so this probably isn't for me anyway. Still, that Bonecrusher sounds kinda cool.

Perhaps some of these leaders will shelfwarm long enough for a good sale on Leaders to come around. Maybe then I can get a Leader-class XTREEM Rice-Rig, he'll look good near my 20th Prime.
