    Greatshot. The bot. The legend. Thank you Takara for finally remaking his updated awesome incarnation since his first G1 toy in 1989. :cry

    My point is more regarding Maximus. Greatshot is getting released for sure. But brave max needs a 2000 preorder count to start production. I just don t have the money right away to pay it. Hence my question with preorders without paying and in Asia so I don t pay shipping from Asia to us+us to Europe

    mmmm. they don't charge full price right away, and even when it is 50$ more expensive (shipping from asia to UK), shipping from UK to France should be 10$.... will have a look tonight

    Thanks :)

    I just recently watched the Omni dub of that episode. Even though I go into watching the Omni dubs knowing there are huge discrepancies in the dialog, seeing the 2 versions in such a close time span makes those differences more glaring. I can't wait to add "Sixshot" to my collection.

    The OMNI dubs on DVD anywhere. I had a bunch of Victory episodes on tape, that I would like to replace.

    Seeing the video above makes me kinda sad that TR Greatshot doesn't appear to come with swords. Maybe Takara will surprise us.

    Madman released Headmasters and Victory on DVD with the Omni dub in Australia. It's PAL format but it's region free. Unfortunately, only a few of their Masterforce episodes has the Omni dub. The only DVD's I'm aware of with the Masterforce Omni dub are Chinese and Taiwan bootleg DVD's. I have the Madman Headmasters and Victory DVD's and Chinese Masterforce DVD's.

    I think it's a 2000 preorder count to produce the Pretender shell. Grand Max is coming, hell or high water.

    You're right. It's 3000 for the shell. My bad.

    Not seeing the 2000 bit on the flier, though.

    Greatshot will get made regardless of how many pre-orders there are. TT would never cancel a product already revealed because it didn't get enough POs. They aren't that low-budget a company.

    Didn’t they cancel a bunch of the legends rereleases that they announced because they didn’t get enough preorders?

    True, but those were just reissues. I think for an exclusive like Greatshot it'll be a smaller run, anyway.
