    Blurr and Scourge made it. That's good I guess.

    I don't think we needed a new thread for this, but thanks for letting us now. Anyways, they reissue a lot.

    In December 2017 we'll get:

    LG25 - Blurr
    LG26 - Scourge
    LG29 - Wheelie and Go-Shooter
    LG31 - Fortress Maximus
    LG32 - Chromedome

    And in February 2018:

    LG07 - Jetfire
    LG10 - Arcee
    LG12 - Windblade
    LG13 - Megatron
    LG14 - Ultra Magnus

    Cool stuff!

    Don't do it in that order though, first see if they come with Targetmasters, then cancel your pre-order ;) 

    But I don't think you will have to do that, those are re-releases, they won't include new accessories with them.

    No you are right. Theyre probably no different from how they were released initially.

    Man, that sucks that they're TakaraTomy Mall exclusives. If they put them out at mass retail, they'd easily get the numbers they want.

    I assume you have to pay for the pre-orders up-front too, which sucks because I'd love Chromedome, Fort Max and Arcee.

    They won't, else they wouldn't bother including them with Doublecross and such - you have to buy the new toys to get the old Targetmasters. It sucks, but that's how it is.

    These re-issues will be available in abundance from Hasbro in Asia, naturally. Blurr is SO mine.

    Ebay:
    I\'m glad that I might be able to grab Wheelie, but to be honest, after the TT Mall markup, it\'ll probably be a similar price to those on eBay.

    Well, already got Wheelie and Blurr and Magnus looong ago, waited until I could find the first two for relatively cheap prices as most ebay prices got crazy. Scourge is the only one whom I might get if the preorde price is OK.

    What's the deal with having people vote in the first place if all you do is setup TT mall pre-orders and then only produce them if you get enough orders? Shouldn't the vote have signaled the interest you were looking for?

    Also, all of them being TT mall exclusives suck. I'm interested in a few of them but no way am I paying these prices. I guess if they sell really well they move some of them to retail shops but this whole thing is just confusing.

    Why isn’t it just "Vote for the ones you want and we reissue the top 5" and then do exactly that? If the voting was this close you could still offer those made-to-order TT mall listings for the places 6-10.

    Why no Metroplex and Grand Scourge???
    Why?

    I guess it is the right time to do some nice suicides.

    Because he doesn't qualify? (He was released under TG label & we're talking about LG reissues here).

    Again, it's really for LG reissues.

    Metroplex is... Nevermind, see my answer above.

    Grand Scourge is under UW label.

    Metroplex was definitely a part of the survey which decided these.

    I am pretty sure these reissues are for the TakaraTOMY Legends toy line only. Metroplex was under TakaraTOMY Generations toy line and thus, does not qualify. If Metroplex was under consideration, then the rest of the TakaraTOMY Generations toy line like Fall Of Cybertron Optimus Prime, .etc would be available for voting as well.

    Also, these are reissues or restock, and as far as we know now they even reuse their Legends toy line numbering, so do not expect any additions or changes to the figure.

    I know a lot of people posted about him, but it was specifically a Legends question, not previous
