Update:

The Pokémon Company International has an incoming container shipment from earlier in July labeled "FIGURE STEVEN STONE AND METAGROSS".

Speculation: This might be connected to these products for the international TPCi version, though its exact purpose is unclear and is to be taken with a pinch of salt, this may have no relation at all.

Update 2: Removed all speculation due to complaints, only facts are now present. I'll leave the speculation over to you.
