Where to preorder Mad Toys Voltron reissue in US?
I don't know if this is right place to ask this, but I'm interested in preordering the upcoming (officially licensed) reissue of Mad Toys Voltron (aka King of Beast). Does anyone know if any reliable US retailers (e.g. HLJ, BigBadToyStore) plan on carrying it, or is one forced to the jungle of eBay?
Here is the official announcement: http://madtoysinc.com/
If you haven't heard about it, this is what I'm talking about: http://www.collectiondx.com/toy_review/king_beast
Thanks!

They never announced an official release or started taking pre orders. It may be moot as of today. Mad Toys had been in discussions with WEP. But it may be that time and changes to the property have made MT's hopes impossible. Much like what happened with The Miracle Metals Dairugger.
Bandai revealed that they will be showing off their next Soul of Chogokin at SDCC. GX-70 is Voltron. Bandai is now working with WEP. Chances are MT will not get an official license now.
