Hot on the heels of our first sighting of the new ReAction Transformers G2 Grimlock & Galvatron Toy Deco we can now share for your our first look a some new Super 7 ReAction Transformers Toys which include a  new G1 Prototype Unicron figure!

The back of the card of the aforementioned ReAction redecos (image thanks again to @RMaster007 on Twitter) show images of what should be wave 6 of Super 7 retro-styled action figures. We have the following characters:

  • Cyclonus
  • Ultra Magnus
  • Wreck-Gar
  • Sharkticon
  • Quintesson
  • Unicron

Unicron is sure a nice surprise since he’s not only a bigger 6 inch/15 cm figure but he’s modeled after the never-released G1 Unicron toy. A very original design choice for sure. See the new image after the jump and then let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

Via Twitter user @RMaster007 we can report two new Super 7 ReAction Transformers toys found at Target.

We have a new G2-inspired blue Grimlock (dino mode) and a toy-inspired white Galvatron. Both are redecos of the first ReAction toys of each character. Both were found at Target in Pasadena, Maryland. As with other previous ReAction special redecos, they are likely to be exclusives to this store.

And we have quite a surprise to share with you. Hong Kong based company Kitz Concept is releasing a new line of figures from the classic Macross/Robotech series which includes transformable 1/72 Valkyrie/Veritech fighters.

We were surprised to find a listing for a limited edition 1/72 VF-1S God Of Flame in a special deco totally inspired by the G1 Jetfire toy. For those who may not know or remember it, the G1 Jetfire figure was indeed a redeco of the Takatoku Toys Macross VF-1S Super Valkyrie toy. This will be a very limited edition of only 1000 units (500 units for Japan and the other 500 for the rest of the world) with numbered boxes. Robot mode stands 19 cm and it features LED lights and die-cast.

We are sure this redeco may get the attention of both Transformers and Macross/Robotech fans. It’s listed via Kitz Robots website for $229.90 with a special pre-order price of $209.90 and expected for release in November 2022. Read on for the full product description and images and let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards!
