- Ultra Magnus
- Astrotrain
- Powermaster Optimus Prime with Apex Armor
These are likely being reissued for the Asian market, but good opportunity for those who may have missed these great figures in the past.

Yes they did. It was a Hasbro Toy shop exclusive and featured the black train/white shuttle deco.Bumblevivisector wrote:Hasbro didn't already do an Astrotrain reissue, right?

Like... Fort Max and stuff? Devastator? Twincast? Those'd be great.

Sarcasm... Hmmm...
Fort Max, fair enough. Hasn't Devastator had several reissues? May be wrong on that one, and as for Twincast, we've had the Blaster mold before... I used lioKaiser as an example, as it has never had a UK release, pretty certain the US didn't see it either and the only option is the likes of ebay, where recently I have seen it up for £1000...

Damn dude, you should have been watching HLJ a few years back after the initial reissue. That thing didn't sell and they ended up marking him down drastically. I was able to get him landed here for about $50.

Devastator has had 1 reissue. There are plenty of examples of toys that got one round only, by both companies. If you want Liokaiser, just say so. Now you're making it sound like there's been only three reissues that have been repeated a million times.

I know, I've long missed the boat. I've got my POL at BBTS, so there's plenty of time to kick myself. Tell me, what's HLJ like? Never dealt with them, so some feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I've used them for years, postage is good because it's coming from Japan, not the US.
Lately though i've been a little disappointed in them since their site redesign. They don't seem to be carrying as much in the way of TF's, and those that they do, they don't announce early bird pre-orders so I find myself missing out.
For example, MP Cassettes ... didn't even see the pre-order go up, but they're already on order stop.
