    Wow. Here's hoping they can still pull it off, but people will be less likely to pre-order now, and that's going to give them less operating cash to get the project off the ground. Sad.

    Wait! What? That’s relieving.

    Edit:
    I just read their Weibo post and translated them and they say that they won the rights to other toy world products, so they’ll “rerelease them”

    Yeah, that's the way I interpreted minstral's post. Still, I'm going to wait before committing to a $300-350 combiner.

    I'm not sure that makes sense to me? Wouldn't they want to keep a known brand name like "Toyworld? "

    Why would they? The name makes people cringe the past few releases.

    I think it pretty clearly means that they've acquired the molds for some of the products they designed for ToyWorld.

    I read the post the same as BrutiKing and Hoffman: When the designers left Toyworld, they took their unreleased projects with them and released them under Zeta Toys. They have since gained ownership of some products/ designs already released under Toyworld, and will be re-releasing THOSE under the Zeta-Ex name.

    That's the way I read it as well. Though, I'll admit, may be biased. I'd love to have some Zeta/ Toyworld/ Set-Ex/ Zexworld? seekers to sit next to my Toyworld Coneheads.

    Hope this doesn't mean the price will be going back up to Toyworld prices...

    Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if they came with two heads each.
    Or at least two separate faces for each head mold.

    It would surprise me a bit. Zexworld (which is what I'll be calling them from now on :) ) doesn't have much of a history at all with alternate faces. The only one that springs to mind for me is the 2nd head done for the G2 Constructor.

    This makes more sense than "Toyworld is now Zeta-Ex" as was suggested.
