I believe he's referring to the new BBTS banner with Kup and Wheelie on it. Apparently, they're going to be Takara's next reissue release. Why they chose Wheelie is beyond my comprehension, but oh well.
Yeah, I can agree with that as well. I really wish they would release a reissue of Swoop, but I don't know if the mold even survived or if that's even feasible. Oh well, I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Originally posted by Nevermore Kup barely met Japanese toy standards when originally released there in 1986, which says a lot about the TF:TM toy designs.
You mean they compelled them to create masterpieces like Breastforce, God Ginrai, Landcross and Grandus?
the art is good on the Kup & Wheelie Banner i must admit:glance: , but thats all about them that looks good, the figures look like the cheesy rip offs (the Cheap ones from NewsAgents/Small Grocerie Stores) Please takara give us a Dinobot 5 box set or a GestAlt set Please that would be worth Importing:D

As has already been pointed out numerous times, the gestalts that they would even consider reissuing are few and far between. Numerous repaints of Bruticus, as well as KO's of Defensor, Superion, and several of the other early gestalts, make reissuing them a less than profitable proposition.
