    Just saw this on Twitter. No clue why they decided to have a legends class Long Haul as a pack-in.

    Just for clarification, this is the non-combining 2010 Hunt for the Decepticon tooling that was later recolored by Takara into EZ Collection Payload, not the combining ROTF figure.

    The marketing blurb calls this "Powerful Long Haul" in katakana.

    As for why this figure would be released now, I have no clue.

    I can only assume there's an article about RotB, but that doesn't explain why they chose Long Haul. It's not just a repack, either. Those are definitely new plastic colors. They made a new run for this.

    Maybe it's a medical article? About Covid Long Haulers?

    Yeah. Childrens magazines having toy pack-ins is a fairly common thing in Japan.
