I thought the next one was going to be Wheelie...

If this is true, then I'm getting one for my bro and myself. I already have a Hound but he isn't complete (no gas tank or spare wheel). I would love to have one that is complete.

Until I see it on hlj.com / takaratoys.co.jp/TF/ I don't believe it

One can hope. Anyone want an unbroken original?

Wheelie would have been more funner, IMO.

It looks to me like they may just have linked to the wrong pictures in their database or something as those pictures are surely in the place you'd expect to see the hot rod alt mode etc.

I'd quite like to be wrong though....

EDIT: given that the pictures are actually called hound14 maybe i am wrong after all

EDIT2: I'm a moron who didn't even see the preorder thing. My entire post is null and void, but I think I'll just leave it here so people can laugh at my expense.

I hope this is real too and I'd most likely by one for all my bros too. Here's to it happening.

If this is for real, then I guess Takara fixed the mold. Atleast, that has been what the general consensus is for Hound, Sunstreaker, Wheeljack, and Mirage.

Ehhh .... Takara .... ehhh

Not bad, but I heard that it was going to be Grimlock, I'd prefered him as well.

And even then I wanted it to be Wheelie. Hmmm I'm sad now ...

Hound re-issue available on HLJ -- I now officially believe it's true

Now all they have to do is find the Dinobot moulds... Grimlock and Slag have to be certs if they're still possible. Fresh moulds would have been produced for G2 and the European Classic Hero range. Swoop may be a goner, though...

I would love a Swoop, mainly becuase he was never released in the UK. I dont want to pay through the nose for a used one when Swoops are quite fragile anyway....Hope they get around to rereleasing him. I dont see how a mold can deteriorate really...surely they have more than one?

They'll have had more than one, but they'll only have kept one for storage reasons - if they bothered for a toy that was withdrawn for inherent fragility problems.

a reissue swoop in diaclone colors would be excelent!
