The TakaraTomy Transformers website has been updated with some new information.

First off, we have the Encore page updated with Encore 16 (Bruticus/Combaticons), and 17 (Cassette Mission 2).

Check out Seibertron.com's galleries and Vector Sigma Database information of the original Generation One versions of these toys. The Combaticons (Bruticus), and Cassettes Steeljaw, Ramhorn, Ratbat, and Slugfest.

Also updated is an interview with Hishashi Yuki, Transformers designer responsible for such Revenge toy designs as the Fallen, the Twins, and Scalpel.

What's that blue looking fig in the Hishashi Yuki pic...
Image

looks like a mix between classics bumblebee and movie soundwave with a little bit of movie seeker legs

Maybe a poorly transformed Wheelie? Whatever it is it also reminds me of G1 Tracks made for the movieverse. Ok Im going nuts, anyone recognize it?

Yeah, it's Blazemaster. I thought he may be almost as big as a voyager but after this pic, not even lol.

Ah, yea I see it now, you can totally tell by the arms/hands. Looks a lot more blue than I thought. It's going to be deluxe size with a scout's look and feel.

Urk! :(

I can follow the gist of it but as for writing up a comprehensible translation, I think that's beyond me. I'll have to leave it up to folks who are far more bilingual than myself.
