Here´s an IMAGE from the Hasbro booth at Wizard World Chicago.
Not bad, seeing God Ginrai at Hasbro´s booth is kind of...Odd. Guess that puts to rest the "is Godbomber going to be included" question.

Two parts to this rumor.

It looks at though Takara will be re-issuing Star Saber. However, there´s an outside chance that they will re-issue Victory Leo as well. More on this soon, but I wouldn´t go buying any Victory Sabre giftsets off ebay for at least 2 months...

A multi-region headmasters DVD is being produced. However, this won´t be the horrible dubbed versions. Oh no. These will be in the original glorious japanese. Also, the original translation will NOT be used. You won´t see the name ´Billy´ anywhere on that thing!

Good news for those who want the series but don´t have a region 2 player AND can´t stand to have Sparkle talk to Billy again...

I´m sure that you´ve all been wondering just what´s going on with Hasbro´s Fortress Maximus release. Well, here´s the latest from my source:

The quality control issues are true. As many of you have found out, bringing over a huge amount of Fort Max figs is neither easy nor cheap. When Hasbro tried to bring a bunch of them over on a cargo ship they arrived in, well, let´s just say they didn´t hold up well. Hasbro is currently trying to resolve the problem of getting the japanese Brave Max figs over to the US shores.

At least they´re not sending mangled Maximi to stores.

Contrary to what we´ve heard, Armada will debut on Cartoon Network on AUGUST 23RD in the form of a 90 minute pilot. It´s not a movie, but it´s a good start.

If you haven´t seen it yet, AFX already has Laserbeak. However, though the official release date for the armada figures is September 1st (a few days after the tv show airs) a ´trickle´ of armada figures will be released right about...NOW. If you find some, consider yourself lucky. This is only a teaser release for now.
