Oh wow, a Deszaras would be devine but I have the originals of the rest. Good deal for those who don't have them. Deszaras is so mine. Hasbro just did the insecticons. Predaking has been reissued before but a good priced reissue would be great. Still hopeful news.

This would be awesome. Especially if Deszaras came true at long last!

I'd buy every one of these bar the Insecticons.

If they're doing Mindwipe, I wonder if they'll be doing any other headmasters? I only have Skullcruncher, Hardhead and Snapdragon myself.

They did Metroplex. Trypticon would be a no brainer. I could use a new one.

Mindwipe also interests me, same with Deathsarus. Guess Starsaber isn't far off either.

That would be so Awesome, especially with the tragic death of my Trypticon from battery acid indigestion. And a Deathsaurus reissue would be a dream come true.

Thank the heavens! Now all we need is Hasbro to sprinkle some Trypticony love on American Shores.

Would pick up the Predacons in a heartbeat too, in anticipation of some add-on kit to make Predaking all bendy and cool and such.

Didn't they radically alter the Deszaras mold for Brave?

If this is a sign of things to come, yay!

I would buy Trypticon, Predaking, and Dezaurus. In a heartbeat.

According to Transformers wiki:



The original Deathsaurus mold was redecoed into the non-living "Red Geist" mech for Takara's Brave of Legend Da Garn toyline, which lacked the Eaglebreast partner. Although the character design in the television show for the line was significantly modified from that of Deathsaurus, including replacing Tigerbreast's tiger mode with a jet mode, the Red Geist toy itself was not retooled.

Considering Trypticon is in War For Cybertron and he got released in Device Label, he is a no brainer. I got the Insecticons last year so I won't be getting them again. Predacons, yes please. Deathsaurus and Mindwipe, I would take due to the rarity of the toys.

It looks like another Armada Demolisher repaint.

This sure exceeds my expectations. Bring it on TT!

Also, where was this picture taken? And are we sure these are legit reissues, and not some kind of toy showcase?

With Trypticons big role in War for Cybertron a reissue right now would be perfect timing.
:D

grain of salt anyone?
I mean, this would be nice, but confirmation is always good.
