Dude, that blue and tort Toronado looks amazing! Great job, Squier. They’ve really been killing it lately. I feel like it’s Fender’s playing ground. Where they can let their hair down and get weird unapologetically.

And if that's not their actual Mission Statement, it ought to be. They should have that installed on the wall at the main entrance to their offices.

Luvverly innit? When? I would like them to do a basic model also with just one volume, one tone.

You made me have a look again and now I'm imagining the Graphite Supersonic but with a tort pickguard...I hope they continue this trend.

I actually preordered one of the Esquires when they went up, not sure when it'll get shipped but I'm pretty excited for it.

I hope they follow through and actually release the Toronado ... and in Australia!

If anybody wants them these are the FMIC part numbers for the Squier Paranormals:
(The last two numbers are the color codes)

Toronado
0377000506 0377000502

Offset Tele
0377005521 0377005557

Cyclone
0377010502 0377010556

Super Sonic
0377015569 0377015583

Cabronita Thinline Tele
0377020505 0377020540

Cabronita Telecaster Baritone
0377030506

And the pictures are online now even though the model pages are still hidden.
You can change the model # in the below URL so you can see the big FMIC image of each model:

Have fun!
I'm sure some Fender dealer in '64 looked at the new Duo-Sonic II and thought, "That's not a Duo-Sonic. That's a Mustang".

With the Mini Jazzmaster seemingly available/shipped to customers, I guess the whole series is about to get official soon now...

Thank you for taking on the nuisance for us! I'm privy to the Graphite Supersonic and Offset Teles.

You're my hero. I normally would have done it but I didn't have the time. Thanks!

Glad the cyclone has arm contour (presumably tummy cutaway too?) Seemingly only the Bullet and maybe some MIJ specials have had contours on Mustang-like bodies recently.

And I don't know if it's been mentioned, but the Cabronita Baritone seems to be 27" scale (and not 30"). I couldn't find the info, so I Photoshoped the above picture and made the body match with the Cabronita Thinline. That's one extra fret, and would be a conversion neck, if I'm not mistaken. However, the Toronado is a true 24.75" like the original, no conversion here.

Yes, the tummy contour is there too:
