Doing more research and sharing your findings is not “debunking”. This is your problem. People can’t even discuss their information without you chiming in like you are some sort of authority on the matter. So until you can provide some definitive proof of where these figures are being produced, nothing has been confirmed and you are as clueless as the rest of us. All we have are some conversations between some retailers and their reps offering differing details, so please get off your high horse.

Have there been rumors previously about WJ or their factory that didn’t pan out? Yes. Were there people using their time and effort to try and substantiate rumors to help others make a better decision. Yes.

This was what the entire conversation was about until you jumped in and made it personal.

 

It would seem some people are still trying to argue about this so here’s a picture of Optimus shredding it to change the topic.

 

This is the kind of stuff I love to see. On that note I loved that Soundwave in that show was music themed and lazorbeak turned into an electric guitar. It's a concept I hope more people use.

 

Yeah I really dug that soundwave in animated was a simple piece of Earth tech that was empowered with Cybertronian tech. Same reason I loved that they made slipstream an actual female clone of Starscream, her sassy response when asked what part of him she came from just cemented her as a top tier character lol

 

Why is the price of 200USD being throw around for this reissue? It is only like 90USD locally.

 

What is this locally you speak of

 

No heres and apple getting knifed

 

bit the bullet and ordered from iacon store. I can always open a paypal dispute if it goes south.

 

So I know this isn't directly related to the figure at hand, but it seems Wei Jiang's OS Blackout, AoE Hound and Legendary Warrior Optimus Prime are being reissued as well. By Iacon Store. Very Strange-

 

Same with Showzstore (except for Hound but they're getting/got LW Prime and WJ Blackout)

 

So is Wei Jiang actually back or are these just "reissues" that were found from dumpsters from the aftermath of their raid?

 

remember the first news about Thunder Leader re-release? it said that Thunder Leader AND Hide Shadow both were getting a re-release this year, surprise!
[In Coming] [Deluxe Ver.] Weijiang WJ M-05 M05 Hide Shadow Blackout Oversized Studio Series SS08 SS-08 Night Blades Set B Deluxe Version
I hope that they fixed the yellowing issue

 

True but still kinda weird if they're getting a re-released Hide Shadow they don't (as of now) got a Thunder Leader reissue as well.

 

Hope that ba reissue is listed on showzstore

 

I'm really doubting they've fixed anything, considering what happened with them. These must just be extra stock that was found.

 

Hoping whoever is assembling them is doing it to level of WJ’s previous figures. I really did enjoy the few that I came across.

 

But who assembles stuff better than WJ?

 

Malaysia

 

not just that but plastics formulations

 

That as well. Wei Jiang has made some physically solid ass figures whose quality are reminiscent of Hasbro's work in the mid 2000's.
