    So a local seller here has stated that Toyworld will be rereleasing Hegemon in original colors soon. Also, Toyworld will be releasing pictures (I'm guessing updated) of Hegemon too.

    Here's hoping this does happen.

    EDIT: all I have as the source for this is a FB posting in case anyone's wondering. So for now, it's just hearsay.

    I've been tempted to sell my Hegemon in the last couple of weeks, but everytime I've lifted him off the shelf to take photos I can't bring myself to do it. Hes an awesome figure, and I hope that Toyworld do re-release him in original colours again for anyone who missed him the first time.

    My local retailer just confirmed with me that the Black Hegemon is cancelled and we will be getting the original colors Hegemon.

    Again, as I mentioned in another thread, this is just what she is telling me. She seems to be quite on the job so I trust her what she tells me. (She was the only retailer in Malaysia that managed to get a shipment of Warbotron AirBurst). I'd appreciate if anybody else hears from their stores and confirm this information too :) 

    Edit: The store maxirod linked is the retailer I was talking about. :)

    I'm glad that Hegemon is re releasing for everyone who didn't get it. It's seriously the definitive classics Megatron (I only wish Orion would have been as spot-on), and it's one of those must-have toys.

    Do you know if there have been any reports about the elbows breaking yet due to the transparent red plastic. Because that's the only thing that's been keeping me from buying the mold.

    Wait that's crazy I'm happy for others who missed this guy but I was curious as to how a black Hegemon would've turned out.

    I think it was more of a Typo when Toyworld did the update for TW-02B, and just happen to be re-releasing TW-01.

    So I was just told by Tojdojo via Facebook that Hegemon will indeed be TF-01B Black Hegemon CONFIRMED, but a Normal re-issue wouldn't be out of the question.

    The truth about the hedgemon is that no one knows.....people are being told different things...I've talked to a vendor in Japan that said its the original and I was told myself by toy world that there is not a reissue...its just going to be one of those wait and see...personall I want both :)

    I wouldn't mind the selling price being whatever it is, the market is the market, but dang it I traded a quakewave and another toy for my hegemon so I want my value back now that I'm selling lol. Doesn't look like I'm gonna get it...
