Could these be the first production samples for a reissue of the Seacons? Original prototypes now surfacing after 23 years? A Google Translation of the forum posts indicates the photographer is in the dark as much as we are currently, but Seibertron.com will have more information as it becomes available.
In the meantime, head on over to our galleries of Piranacon, Seawing, Tentakil, Nautilator, Skalor, Overbite, and the strangely absent SnapTrap.

Design by Hasbro, mold by Takara. Simple as that. Note it says "1987" and Hasbro uses the old style logo, indicating the mold has not been updated ever since it was first used.

The TFCC Seacons have the same datestamps, IIRC.

Agreed, I am looking at mine and he is not pink.. He is purple (I have a complete G1 Piranacon on the shelf right next to my computer).

Gotcha. I don't really like drones unless they have a "general" like in Beast Machines.

I just meant that the Hasbro Seacons didn't really...do anything in the fiction. Patrolled the Decepticons' holiday camp, arm-wrestled Galvatron, played around with the Autobot Powermasters and got killed by Starscream...no real personality. They were just some guys. The Seacon Space Pirates, on the other hand...

Would it be wrong to think about Scylla so much?

I have a very loose and very battered Nautilator that would like to see his buddies.
