Good news! I know I through the FANTOFAN site in as an after thought, but they do have nice pics of these upcoming releases.


Omega Supreme for $114.99!!!

[Sid Burn]

Big Surprise there, I thought there was no way they would reissue omega.

I will be picking this up even though I have a complete one already.

[TFBuyer]

Wow--after Sky Lynx for $90 I was a little nervous about Omega Supreme's pricing.... But $114 I can handle!

[First Gen]

WOW!!!

I thought the mold was toast by now. I wonder what this will do to sales of OS on auction sites.

How many of these will be listed as AFA originals????

[decepticonjon]

awesome, that bad chicken is now on preorder.

[capellamusic]

Holy crap! Well done Takara Tomy . I'll wait for this one and the minibots for pre-order on HobbyLink Japan, their prices are much better than BBTS (at least to send to Portugal). I'll send them an e-mail later today. I'm enjoying more and more these Encore releases at every new release they annouce. And I'm wondering if they could reissue Sky Lynx maybe they can do Shockwave as it was also from ToyCo or whatever. Here's hope for Wheeljack, Rumble, Frenzy, Mirage and whatever they can do more!

Collect them all!

[Zeds]

This is like better than awesome! Good choice by Tak/Tomy as they are not just rehashing all the previously released TFC reissues! Albeit the minis are but hey the TFC set is pushing 2 bills. Well done

[Foallen]

Wow, I'm surprised with the Omega Encore. Good for everyone who needs one.

I guess my G1 collection is at the point where I have almost everything I want (minus a few headmasters), so it doesn't help me. A part of me thinks about getting the reissue anyway, but my Omega is in good shape, so it would really just be a waste of money.

[Seibertron]

I am totally confused how they are able to get this mold for a reissue. I wonder if they bought the mold from ToyBox way back when or what happened. Inquiring minds would love to know! Either way ... this is exciting. I'd love to own a C10 Omega Supreme. He has always been one of my favorite toys. I even traded Jetfire for him in 4th grade, which really pissed off my Mom. Whoops! That's alright though because I ended up getting the Jetfire you see in this gallery totally mint and complete for $55 with stickers unapplied along with a C9 Blaster which was part of that $55.

[Counterpunch]

eHobby Omega Sentinels.

Do it, for I have commanded it.

I'm waiting.

None, because it says Encore on the box.

[Nekoman]

You know all those people who bought those cheap mini-bot knockoffs on eBay? Well they get what was coming to them, something of better quality and legit.

[Solrac333]

Anyone remember what the original prices were back in 1984?

[Autobot032]

Anyone remember what the original prices were back in 1984?

Omega Supreme was $39.99 (according to the K-Mart tag on the boxed one I had)

and the Minibots were $4.99 a piece.

[Patrick Bateman]

Omega Supreme - holy crap The Minibots I can do without, though.

[Autobot Jazz]

Yes1 Iv'e been hoping they'd reissue Omega Superme, a definite must.

[frogbat]

mmmm how tempting but i've already spent too much on tformers this year and like sky lynx not the most enticing tho a better figure no doubt

hobbylink will prolly come out with a guardian repaint...

[Talon523]

They took away Gears. The last reissue had one more and was the same price.

[Liege Evilmus]

I DON'T NEED ANOTHER ONE BUT HELL YEAH FOR EVERYONE THAT DOES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously, this is one of the best figures ever and my personal favorite. He's like a giant puzzle that rolls and walks and he's just kick ass all the way around!

WOW! I wish I started back then, like how some of you did. At least there doing the encore's. I can actually collect all the G1. You have to remember to that its made by TAKARA, the shipping cost to ship them here, also the stores that buy it. I bet you Hong Kong or Japan will sell OS for $45 or $60 the most or even less. Minibots! Man! I would say maybe $10 to $20 there. Of course we get the wack price's! Oh well! Can't wait till these 2 come out.

[NuclearConvoy]

I'm shocked, surprised and elated.
However, as old Omega isn't on my list and he is a 100$+ figure, I'll have to pass. I am glad, however, that he is getting rereleased as it shows just how unafraid of rereleasing big toys TakaraTomy are....maybe we'll see Scorponok in the future?

[i_amtrunks]

Add in Animated's release around the same time, and June is going to be a very bad month for my wallet.

[The Chaos Bringer]

Thank you Takara!

Takara has done what was once considered impossible. No longer will I ever doubt the possibility of a reissue.

[Stormrider]

Takara, always one step ahead of Hasbro. Giving the fans what they want. Well...most of the time. Let's keep this rolling and release the Dinobots!
