We recently reported that the newest World Smallest Transformers - WST might happen to be Sixshot. We're on target as Justitoys, the creators behind the small-sized figures have updated their website. This update happens to be a picture with the outlines of three Transformers. They can be easily identified as Sixshot, Blitzwing and Astrotrain!

I still need to buy the WST Shockwave they released last month. But I'll probably wind up buying Sixshot at some point. I'm really getting behind in my transformers purchases recently.

As awesome as this WST version will be, I wouldn't mind getting a new Classics/Universe version of Sixshot at some point. Although it won't happen due to him transforming into a purple and green space gun that for some reason can't pass today's safety regulations...

Thanks for the news Blurrz!

Yeah. I'm going to need a couple of those.

Got the Shockwave, and loved it so much I got the Grimlock and the Thrust.

Based on the Quality of those I'm committing to having all of these

SIXSHOT needs to come over!!

News Credits: 32 · Sun Apr 04, 2010 9:25 pm

Yes, I believe I'll take those now. Thank you.

News Credits: 11 · Sun Apr 04, 2010 9:48 pm

OMFG I am buying all of these!! If they come out, of course.

Is this Sixshot different from the Sixshot we saw two days ago that's a Wonderfest exclusive?

Stop making them small and just give us a reissue. I have Blitzwing and Astrotrain from my youth but would love to have Sixshot in full size.

We are getting reissues, albeit it's not officially announced. And this isn't Takara, this is Justitoys, different company, different expectations and different amount of funds.

Since when? The only talk I ever heard of a reissue Sixshot was in the 'what figures do you hope for' type threads.

I generally like to keep secrets and be humble, but it's far from a rumor. My sources tell me that we will get an Encore of Sixshot, that's all I can leek out right now.

Haha, get it.. leek.

I thought that one had been known for quite some time.

Not that it matters as it would just be a reissue of a reissue so nothing overly exciting about that.

It has been rumoured for a while as there wasa list of korean reissues which were supposed to come out(including primus, Hybrid style 1 galaxy convoy etc)

It was never confirmed officially but should give you hope.

Be prepared for this line up to change. Justitoys did announce WST Wheeljack when they announced Blaster and Shockwave. Ever since the silhouette we have seen nothing about Wheeljack.

News Credits: 767 · Mon Apr 05, 2010 6:24 am

Awesome!

Guess these will come out sometime around X-Mas.

News Credits: 12 · Mon Apr 05, 2010 6:41 am

I'll take one of each, please!

I got Shockwave - it's my first WST - and I was very pleased with it.

News Credits: 1082 · Mon Apr 05, 2010 6:43 am

Any more WSTs are good smallest toys.

I'm hoping for them. Besides the Wheeljack that's missing, they've had the HB style- Dinobots idea for ages, and heard nothing.

Great stuff they do, but you do have to be patient.

lol. Well, that would indeed be cool if it happens.

And on topic, I hope all three of these make it to release, and they end up costing the same as Shockwave & Blaster.

Did BBTS ever state why they weren't going to carry the Justitoys WSTs? It's strange that TFsource is the only store that carries them. I'd prefer to buy elsewhere if possible.

Justitoys are doing some great stuff but I do find it irritating that they give teasers so far in advance of release. The teaser for Hybrid Snarl has been up for what must be a year or more without any more news and every previous release has been the same.

Cost should be the same if they are mass marketed, and not short-run.

I think BBTS only runs them in when they happen upon buying toys from someone's collections, used.

TFSource appears to have a relationship with JiT, but robotkingdom did recently get JiT to do Twincast and Shackwave exclusive colors for their site only.

I must have Astrotrain!

He was one of my favorites as a kid and I have every incarnation of him so far...I MUST keep the trend going! :grin:

Ah, well I guess if they're available at one place, I gotta do what I gotta do.
