Title:
Thrust With Inferno Powerlinx Super Con
Description:
Powerlinx Thrust with Powerlinx Inferno (Super-Con, 2003)
Takara release date: December ??, 2003
Accessories: 2 missiles
Although Hasbro at one point expressed interest in releasing a running change variant of Powerlinx Thrust that reflected the originally intended color scheme,they never went through with it, at least not in the North American market. However, in December 2003 Takara released red Powerlinx Thrust as a "USA Edition” in Japan, exclusively available at the Toy’s Dream Project members store Toycard, in Hasbro packaging.
Curiously enough, Hasbro actually did produce a small run of red Powerlinx Thrust, but never released it in the North American market. Instead, the toy, in European packaging, popped up in Israel in mid-2004, later followed by sightings in Italy, Portugal, Spain and the United Kingdom. The toy was even found in Australia, but only in stores that also occasionally sell toys imported from other countries, and again in European packaging. Furthermore, some European countries saw the toy being sold at instant discount prices, which suggests it was old Hasbro warehouse stock which had never seen a shelf release that was now being cleared out.
