Thanks to our very own Jtprime17 we can confirm a new Transformers Vintage Beast Wars Wolfang Reissue.
This would be another non-cartoon Beast Wars character toy to be reissued, hot on the heels on our first images of the Beast Wars Cybershark reissue. We still have no images yet, but we can share for you the EAN number for those interested in tracking this item.
- TRA GEN BEAST WARS MAXIMAL WOLFGANG – EAN 5010993931958

The entire packaging design of the reissue is very "well, if you squint"-ish.

I haven't seen any Wolfang at Walmart either, but the one I preordered (from Walmart) came in over a week ago.

Same, and mine just put out the Terrorsaur retros out
Oniconvoy
I’ve had pretty good luck with preordering these as soon as they go up. Wolfang arrived a couple weeks ago.

I've seen plenty of Cybersharks at my Walmarts, just no Wolfangs
B-Fox
Pulse seems to have Wolfang. They ARE putting Tigatron on clearance at Walmart (and the hordes of Scorponok), so maybe it's to make room for a refresh of Cybershark and Wolfang?

Nevermore
Gee whiz, I wonder if it might possibly have something to do with this?

I haven’t had any luck finding Wolfang at any local Walmart near me.

Agreed, that's pretty dang ugly. And such a waste of plastic. For a company that's trying to reduce the use of it, they sure went all out on that ugly square bubble.
SPLIT LIP
I hate the square bubble. I would’ve preferred rocky or even round. It’s gonna look odd next to my other carded reissues but eh whatever.

So it appears this figure has thus far only been released in Singapore, Australia and Hong Kong. No US retail sightings yet.
Packaging comparison. From left to right:
US 1996 release, Canadian/Latin American trilingual 1996 release, European trilingual "Biocombat" 1996 release, European trilingual "Ani Mutants" 1996 release, 2022 reissue.

Hell yeah, Hastak, I'd be all over a legacy Wolfang. And while I really want this reissue, there's no way I can get my hands on it for a reasonable price..

Stop it. You know exactly what people are referring to and it's getting boring.

Duh toy good.

All,
As someone looking forward to buying Wolfang to replace my original, I only care about information regarding how it differs from the original and how the upcoming release turns out.
With that said, we have rules in place. Please read the following:
Regarding leaks, the ethics around it, and how it's handled at TFW2005
This is a news forum and TFW2005 isn’t the source of news like this. The Wolfang reissue video and images are from a reviewer. If there are new images and videos that pop up on the internet they’re likely to be reposted on the forum or the front page. That’s the nature of how the forum works and has been for the past 20 years. It’s just not as frequent as it was from the Armada-ROTF leak days. Reviewer discussion throws threads off topic. It’s to the point where some threads are overtaken by discussion about the reviewer and not the toy itself.
TFW2005 is not the staging ground for any drama you have with someone offsite. You don’t like someone on YouTube? This isn’t the place to air out your disapproval. Keep these rules in mind:
10. Keep Off-Site Drama Off This Site
If you had a disagreement or falling out with someone on another site or in real life, if you had a deal go sour on another website or whatever. If it happened elsewhere then don't bring it here. Leave your grievances at the door.
7.a No Public Questioning of Front Page News Choices
The TFW2005 Staff takes careful consideration in what gets posted to the front page and when. Please do not question why a story did or did not go up in public discussion threads. If you have a concern with a front page story, please PM an Admin directly. This includes topics related to leaks (see here).
If you have any questions about anything I said above, PM an admin.
