I'm with Riotflea, where's Overkill? He belongs in set 2 with Slugfest, not Ratbat. For that matter, Frenzy and Rumble should be along for the ride if Rewind and Eject are in it. I swear, young people today...no respect for history.

I imagine Overkill is being held off to guarantee a purchase of a later set. Ratbat is in the next set to make sure you buy it to start off with- since he's so damn cute. I want me one.

I haven't seen these or the Henkei figures yet in Nagoya. I was one of the first people in the store, yesterday. I went back again today - nothing. I wonder if the shipment has been delayed a week.

Ditto. I plan to spend my three-day weekend Hot Shot hunting.

How about just Rumble or Frenzy. If bootleg makers can do that mold in every color under the rainbow, how hard could it be for Takara to do the originals??

Call me crazy here, but...is it possible that there's gonna be more than two box-sets, depending on how well these sell?

I hope takaratomy market the next tape sets well.

I would package Squarktalk & Beastbox with Graphy & Noise

and the last set could be

Grandslam & Raindance with Zaur & Dial

These combinations would have east and west fight for them.
