Fan to Fan has reported that with the Micron Legend Vol.11 DVD comes a new Mini-Con team repaint, the Hazard Team, which is a repaint of the Emergency Team. Apparently the repainted Prowl figure (white and red instead of white and blue) will be called KingBolt.
Ironically, our 'Hazard Patrol' (see message board) has repaints of Red Hot from the Rescue Patrol... maybe Takara is spying on us. :-) It has also been confirmed that one of the WST Wave II chase figures will be Bluestreak/Silverstreak, which brings the line-up to: Jazz, Anime Optimus Prime, Prowl, Red Alert, Thrust, Megatron, and Bluestreak.

It has also been all-but-confirmed that Hot Rod will also be a chase figure. That means that Tracks and the other figures shown in the early shots of Wave II will probably appear in Wave III, if Wave III comes out.

As far as Megatron's extra accessories being chase pieces, I think that's out the window. He's too small to need many of his original accessories, and if you look at any shots of the figure, no accessories are added to him when transforming him from bot to gun.

This information came from Figure King magazine, so it is as close to being official as you're likely to get outside of a chat with the guys at Takara.

Now who else is totally lost with all the Japanese Mini-Con repaints? :)
