Earlier in 2015, it was rumored that G1 Trypticon will be reissued as part of the Platinum Edition line. A preorder has been listed at TFSource for that anticipated reissue, which possibly confirms its release. Will you be adding this to your collection? Let us know on the forums after the break.
Staff edit: Robot Kingdom has listed preorders as well.

I wish stickers didn't come pre-applied. I would prefer the eyes were blank like the cartoon.

Bummer.
Has anyone else got two different purple ramps? or have they generally matched so far?

I just cracked mine open last night. I am a little annoyed that his ramps are two different purples and the stickers aren't applied so well. However, I am happy to have him whole with no fuss of collecting his bits one by one. His parts are all being stored away anyway so the ramps won't really bug me, out of sight and all. Glad to have him, finally. Can't wait for his Titan version.

Coming to Target! Hopefully as easy to get as the Coneheads. Still not quite sure I want it, who knows what the price will be.

No, but we managed to build a time machine as a team effort to get ourselves ones in advance so I'd consider that a confirmation of it, yes.

Actually, from what I saw in the pics, the original ball bearings in his legs are not there for this release (since they were removed for the Gigastorm retool and apparently were not retained for this reissue.)
Since several people have already stated that they have him in hand (and have shown pics too), I'd say…yeah.

Nope, it's still a rumor.

So has this reissue been officially confirmed?

Got mine a couple days ago thanks to the awesomeness that is Kapow toys. Gotta say I absolutely love this piece.
Im not usually a fan of g1 reissues… But this one really has impressed me big time.
It's very true to the original down to every detail and the quality of the plastic is extremely good and sturdy with no QC issues at all.
Very glad I bought this guy now … Hasbro = Nailed it times a thousand
