Takara is Reissuing MP Megatron, Sideswipe, Prowl and Wheeljack in 2025 along with Boxsets

I wish they'd reissue some of the hard to find UW box sets. Getting that Takara Computicon for less than $400 would be nice.

If it is Studio Series, it will definitely be SS69, since we're talking about reissues.

The what? That set sold out basically everywhere, didn't it?

Can confirm for canada too. That set didnt last too long.

But anyways it doesn’t matter, Takara is releasing it for their own market. How it performed elsewhere is irrelevant to them.

I had my SS69 upgraded with the DNA Design kit. It was okay in combined mode, but the thing was unstable and not fun to fiddle with. So I ended up selling it to my local geek store for 300$CAN in store credits.
The thing barely last a week inside that store before being sold, even at 600$CAN.

So, I bet that as soon as the preorders are open for the SS69 reissue, it will sell out quickly. Even at full price, plus taxes, and the high shipping costs.

day 20 of hasbro pulse advent calendar is tranformers anda bigger selection of offerinbgs compared to most days but a lot of stuff can be found cheaper elsewhere still so honorable mentions are

Tonkatron £88 (as much as I like G1 toys I dont think the quality of the constructicons is worth this but each to their own)
SS Devy £125

Same as Sabr.
Never got to see it in store.
Copped it when Pulse did the sale on it and i got the DNA kit for it.

Wonder how much Megatron will cost this time.

As for Devastator, I kinda hope Takara gives it the nice paint brush up. Not likely, but I can hope, it's the only reason I didn't get SS69, I had the retail releases and there was minimal reason to double dip

Just got shipping notice on my MP Brawl from target. Looking forward to this beast...

MP-36 was the toon-accurate version from the get-go. The "Mp-36+" release was the toy-colored version.
