Predaking + Ehobby Insecticons

[SKYWARP]

Just wondering who here has already pre-ordered Predaking or the ehobby Insecticons?

 

I've been thinking about getting both of them, but I'm still trying to figure out were I'm going to get the money from to pay for them.

[Prowl]

I preordered mine already and am awaiting their arrival in September

[Nocturno]

even though I already have all 5 Preds, MISB of course, I went ahead and preordered them. I havent preordered the Insecticons... though I should.

Yes you should bud I preordered Predaking too One set though, because I don't intend on opening him

[Nocturno]

well, you had an original set, remember? LOL

Prowl, did you preorder your Ehobby Insecticons too?

PM so you can let me know how to preorder from Ehobby!

[Opticon]

I havent preordered either, but i do plan on getting Predaking. I'd just rather wait till its definite, and so i can search for the lowest price so it doesnt makem e completely broke.

Hang on... "e-hobby insecticons"?

 

Did i miss something? Are the announced re-issues E-hobby exclusives or are e-hobby releasing some repaints?

 

Cheers,

Will Predaking be the metal or plastic version? Most likely metal, but I am waiting to know for sure before pre-ordering.

Aha! So i DID miss something lol

 

OK, they look nice, but it's not my kind of cookie to be honest. I'll stick to the Takara's :0)

 

Cheers,

I ordered both. Pred was such a suprise.

Indeed ! A very pleasant surprise at that.

 

I'll pre-order it and it will also likely be the first Takara Reissue I actually open.

[grand theft autobot]

I haven't pre-ordered either yet, but plan to soon.

 

Is Predaking official now? Versus a really good and solid rumor?

It's still unofficial, but every online store has him up for preorder - so I would say that's it's pretty much official....

[RequieM]

Damn just bought the original for $300, complete and minty.

 

Well maybe ill buy one of these to, when they get a discount.

[redrum2581]

I'll wait til end of next year or sometime in '06 when hasbro release Predaking, I expect him to be cheaper to since won't be importing.

Ok, that's what I thought. I'll wait a little more until it's official to preorder him.

Me too! SOBS are gona make me buy TWO! @loll@ But I shall do so happly! PK is so worth it!

[DPrime]

I'm gonna wait to compare prices better, but yeah, I'm getting Predaking and the regular Insecticons.

 

The BEST thing about this news is that it's so unexpected - I can really see Takara/Hasbro releasing Devastator, Galvatron, Omega Supreme, Shockwave - ANYONE!

 

... as long as Hasbro cuts their prices a bit, that is.

Don't hold your breath, Takara released Soundwave a year ago, and he still ain't in the US plans.

 

Predaking may be to high a price point for Hasbro

[SKYWARP]

I just hope the release dates don't get pushed back. Getting Predaking for Christmas would be o so nice.

 

I just hope it's the metal version, since I have the plastic version from when I was a kid.

Agreed - in fact, Takara has been reissuing plenty while Hasbro has really slowed down as of late...Maybe SDCC will reveal more of their reissuing plans besides Astrotrain

[synch]

Negative on that prowl... If anything there saving all the good stuff for OTFCC! Thats why even there news on there webpage has been so... STupID!

 

 

OH Omega supreme & shockwave DO NOT! STand a chance of being reissused! Those toys belonged to other companys & what not & were only licened to takara/hasbro/whatever for a while ...

[DPrime]

I don't know if we'll see 'em or not, but there's always a chance. Whoever owns the rights to these molds stands a WAY better chance at making money if they sell/lease them to Takara/Hasbro. I don't think they're making much money of 'em right now...
