And a few SWTFs. | Classics Minicon Nightscream to be Released in Japan as a Mailaway Doug Dlin and M Sipher over at the Allspark reports that the Classics Minicon Nightscream is the next of the Classics Minicons to be released in Japan. He'll be a TV Magazine Mailaway, limited to 2000 pieces. His Japanese name will be Dragon Air, a Cybertron Ninja Raider.
M Sipher has also posted Doug Dlin's translation of the names of the figures in the Micron Booster series: Quote:
1. Radrogue (Strongarm)
2. Gredator (Overbite)
3. Apexus (Snarl) (definitely "-us" or "-as"; "-is" would take different kana)
4. Windrazor (Dirt Rocket)
5. Gnashties (Terrorsaur) (It could be a typo for "teeth", but I suspect it's a dual pun on "nasties")
6. Repticus (Swoop)
7. Ironlunge (Knockdown) (Yes, "-lunge".)
8. Refuser (Wideload)
9. Rockblade (Sledge)
| The Allspark also reports that the chase versions do not have different names - they're simply Radrogue Clear Version and Gnashties Metallic Version.
Additionally, Takara Tomy has updated with official pictures of the Micron Booster.  Quote: |

As for the names of the "rare" microns, the names not being on the page doesn't mean they don't have their indivisual names. Autobase Aichi and various people who are posting at various websites are using those names (Chromebite and Detectus) so I am assuming the names are in their indivisula bio  |

-Tony! | Simply dream...
or go through a bidding service and pick one up off Yahoo! Japan auctions as I'm sure they'll be a couple there once he sees a release. |
