I can't wait for Predaking!
Got mine preordered well I should say my mom preordered it for my X-mas gift and the fact he is Die Cast even better.
Galaxy Force looks great too for the most part.
Shame about Blitzwing given he's been one of the few transformers I never had a problem finding *Or see also I've aquired 3 of them through the years.*

The bunnies, they give me knowledge it is neat.

UPDATE!
According to listings at both BBTS and Digital-Toys, the red Honda S2000 announced as "Windcharger" by Hasbro is not going to be named "Charger" in Japan, but... "Overdrive"?!?

Digital-Toys is listing him as "Jaguar".
Seems like Takara can get away with it (see "Lambor").
However, RM "Rijie" is a different story...

Um...crud...I don't really have anything productive to add. I guess, just that it's too bad that the Hasbro version isn't going to be called Overdrive as well.
You know...interestingly enough, this was supposedly why we ended up with "Meister" instead of "Jazz." But there is a vehicle model called "Meister" as well...so that seems to poke holes in that theory.Originally posted by Alpha Trion

<pauses>
Okay...I thought I found a car called a Meister the other day...but I can't find one now so...nevermind.

Yeah, I preordered mine as well. This'll be the first time I've owned him or any of the Predacon gestalt team members.
It's also a shame, considering there are more impressive tfs that they could have reissued. I was slightly disappointed when I first got him, and I ended up acquiring a knockoff, only to find out that the original was really no better.Shame about Blitzwing given he's been one of the few transformers I never had a problem finding *Or see also I've aquired 3 of them through the years.*

I'm I obsessed? I have Predaking ordered at BBTS, eventhough I already own a diecast original 100% complete and arond 8.5 condition from my childhood. I have been buying 1 each of the Takara and Hasbro standard reissues. I can't stop!!!!!!!!!!!
"You know what? You can take all these Beast Machines, Beast Wars, and all the rest of them and shove them up your tailpipe. Optimus Prime is not a damn dirty ape and Megatron, Soundwave and Starscream are not "Destrongers" or "Predacons" they are DECEPTICONS and may any who say otherwise burn in the fiery pits beneath Cybertron where wicked Transformers are melted down into slag."
