At the moment Takara-Tomy haven't announced anything about any new reissues since the merger.

That was so obvious choice I didn't bother mentioning it.
I meant OTHER than ebay?

Something just occured to me - Star Convoy appears to be the only micromaster-related toy reissued so far. I wonder why?
No wait, I forgot the combiner teams, Sixturbo, Sixbuilder etc.
I for one sure wouldn't mind having Powered masters being reissued either!

Went to Toys'R'Us on Sunday for the first time in YEARS and saw a few reissues there, and didn't realize they were going for so little - only 15 quid a head! They had Prowl, Red Alert, Inferno, Tracks and Skywarp. I may be tempted to pick up a couple next time I go back, but more likely, my heart'll be set on the Cybertron Primus I saw there.....only £50...

Well, I guess the re-reissue TFC Megatron should be listed too, hmm?

Something just occured to me - a long time ago, I saw a G1 Optimus Prime toy that, apparently, came with an Action Master Prime as a bonus. Am I imagining thing, or did such a set actually exist?

That would most likely be the 'New Years' Convoy reissue your thinking of there, as that's the only G1 Prime I know of that came with the Prime Action Master.

The action master Prime there looked pretty huge compared to the "normal" Prime. Were AMs really that big? I thought they were about the size of a micromaster...or maybe the 'normal' Prime was just really small. To be honest, I don't think I've ever seen one in the flesh. Well, metal.

Go on rip it open - it's worth it. Steeljaw is kinda cool to
Transformers were never meant to be kept MISB if you ask me....having said that there are a few orginals I ripped open only for them to be reissues 20 years later. If I knew then what I know now eh?

Just Encores. After #9 (Bumblebee, Swerve, Tailgate, Outback and Pipes with slight paint upgrades and a cartoon face for Bumblebee) and #10 (Omega Supreme) there were two more announcements: #11 (Skywarp + Thundercracker) and #12 (Metroplex).

Just sent my order for Omega Supreme.
Normally I'm not hot for the obscure repaints e-Hobby likes to push out, and especially when it's as bloody expensive as this, but I'm horribly tempted to get the Guardian Robot just because I anticipated it's release almost a whole year in advance.
...and it seems to have shipped already as well.

I like the e-hobby repaints. The black Perceptor repaint, Magnificus, looks awesome as a Decepticon. Not sure about the figure that comes with it though, although its nice to see Takara referencing the figure's origin in Microman.
I'd still like to get the ehobby minibot repaints, but they seem very scarce and quite ridiculous in price when they do crop up.
Where did you order the Guardian Robot from?
