Anybody seen these? Is this a real thing from Fender?

You would think Fender would have this splashed all over their website if it were legit. I am not saying it's not legit but I couldn't find a single mention of it on the Fender site nor anywhere else on the interwebs. If they are legit I wonder if they will have the same sketchy build quality of the 65 reissue series with the underrated components and all that. The blackface reissues spawned a cottage industry of guy who stripped them to redo them right.

indeed. i couldn't find anything on them either.

On that pix, do you notice the panel legends over the input jacks read "custom" and "vintage"...?

Yes. One channel like a vintage amp and one like a modified Bassman.
