Not much new or exciting, but we know the next Encore, and Alternity Megatron is getting a redeco.

I wonder if they'll do like they did with the reissue Ironhide & Ratchet released during the last movie and offer a movie-deco version of Skids.

Buster Optimus Prime would be a reaaaaally expensive Voyager.
That's higher than Leader price. So overpriced redeco or... something else entirely, above Leader size. -------------------- Looking for a complete Energon Sky Shadow (from Superion Maximus).
Offering: Binaltech Hound, Swindle, Ravage (Corvette), Skids. Can buy in stores: Robot Heroes Tigatron/Inferno, Ricochet/Predaking. |

QUOTE(Powered Convoy @ Jul 4 2009, 12:18 AM)  Encore 18 Skids Skids is a boring reissue. I wonder if they'll do Sideswipe too? I'm kinda excited. I missed out on both previous Skids reissues. Now I can finally pick one up. --------------------  Tu peor error fue herirme y no matarme de una vez. SUPER GIGANTE THANKS to God Fire Convoy for the rockin' avatar!

Speculation over at TFW based on translating the page seems to think there's a combining Voyager Prime/Jetfire of some sort involved. |

Light, sound, a combination gimmick...yeah, sounds like Prime and Jetfire. Wonder if it's just a discounted Leader 2-pack.

New-mold voyager Prime that combines with a voyager mold jetfire (and has electronics, to boot) rocks my socks off. Hope it's true.

It's down to less than half of what it was originally going for, but yeah, still too much. I'll pick it up when it's the $25 I paid for Protect Black Ironhide.

That gun is boss. Wonder if we'll get this as a US release, and if so, if it will be in normal Optimus colors (like Premium Prime last year) or if they'll give it a totally new color scheme.
I don't know if I would personally like the head sculpt with the mouth, but I will say that it's about time one was made. -------------------- |

Definitely interesting ideas, but so totally not worth buying a second Leader Prime for.

That Prime is so bought! I'd love it if they released a version down the road with the guns, faceplate, and premium style painting. Or even if you could have the faceplate head on one side and the non on the other.
