Has MMC hinted that they might reissue this guy? I'd love to get him but I'm not trying to pay $200 for him.

 

I thought it was reissued once, the probability of another reissue is pretty low.

 

New re-issue coming this year. pre orders live on PSX now.

R-28 Tyrantron / Tyrantronus (2023 reissue) | Planet Steel Express

Also spare bodies so both display setups will be possible without having to buy the entire set twice:

R-28plus Core body for Tyrantronus | Planet Steel Express

 

Already ordered , even gave in to the extra body lol.
Think they might give us the tyrant blades as a pre-order bonus
  

 

Will this go up on other retailers?

 

Does this reissue come with the Jaguar arm filler parts? It looks like it has them in the photos on PSX.

Also, love that they’re doing the spare body!

 

Hmmm. I will be ordering a spare body if it can be confirmed the arm fillers are included with it.

Otherwise I’m good with currently having the one Tyrantron in my collection and swapping the parts whenever I feel like it.

 

No idea but its most likely the photos are just of an existing copy that happens to have those from the jaguar set.

 

So the leg snapped off at the waist for me, is this an easy fix or not?

 

I couldn’t fix mine so I sold it as broken. How did you break yours? I pulled too hard extending the leg

 

Exactly the same here, was transforming him back to bot mode and the extension slider was too tight and it pulled the leg off

 

The spare body definatley interests me for all of the spare parts.

Im the one who purchased Tigermask's broken one. Was able to repair it so the the joint and ratchet work perfectly fine, I glued the gear back onto the hip and then used a drywall screw to thread the two parts together. Then I cut the head off of the screw flush with the gear:



Full poseability intact and ratchets still work like a charm.

 

Bummer I wonder if that was a qc issue I just didn’t read about. If I pick up this reissue, I will be super careful tranforming the legs from now on.

 

I remember there is an official miner Megatron coming, but I'm still interested in the extra body, just in case the leg of my copy breaks.

 

Reissue up on BBTS

Reformatted R-28 Tyrantron

 

Thanks preordered! I just won’t ever transform him again. LOL

 

For the (complete) reissue, it should be but the spare body doesn't have the filler in the photos. This doesn't make too much sense if I want to display both in robot mode.

Edit: I need to correct myself as you only need two fillers for two bodies so they don't need to include the fillers for the spare body.

btw, someone asked about the tarn head which comes with Megatron at his 1st release, PSX said it "should also be" included in the reissue.

 

That's fantastic for those who have not grabbed one. This remains the best CHUG Megatron. If you don't have it GET IT you won't regret it.

 

He’s fantastic but has the du— very silly alt mode.

Mine will never be transformed. In fact, I punched the pins out of those silly ass wings on his arms also. I also nabbed a proper shapeways canon for him as well.
