In Japan, at these toy conventions, the cars on display are divided into two categories: new release and concept. New releases are usually non-final prototypes of what are already scheduled to be released, and usually include a release date at the booth. Concept cars/projects show the potential of the technology currently being used in the retail product being implemented in some other cool fashion. Concept cars do not necessarily got to release. Many concept products are too costly to mass produce. The Bit tanks, speedboats and earth moving vehilces never had a release date. Bit the Wild Char-gs and the boosters did. Also, on a less related note, the tomy robot soccer players(initially debuted as a concept toy) did eventually get released sometime last year. Just my two cents in...
