This is the first I'm seeing of these. Look awesome. Love the siping. I have the Geolandar MT Plus and they were great off road and good in winter not so great for daily driving.

Looks good, it seems Yokohama introduced the tire just 2 days ago from Today 05/18/2017 ? it's weird it's not listed in the Yokohama website yet, and there is literally nothing else advertising this tires other than perhaps a little website with 10 lines references to the tire with a Jeep picture in it.

From the Yokohama official website, nothing is going on

The first batch of sizes is supposed to release in July. Another batch in September.

I found an article that says they will be available up to a 37. This is disappointing for me. I was hoping they would still offer 38-40 inch options like they do with the MT+.

It may be available in those larger sizes. Found this out there:
Yokohama Tire has introduced the new Geolandar M/T G003 mud-terrain tire. The new application will be available in the US in July and is designed for hardcore off-roading. The tire fits popular pick-up trucks and SUVs.

Available in 37 sizes, ranging from 15- to 20-inch rim diameters, the tire features aggressive sidewall styling, multiple sidewall plies and a triple-polymer compound for outstanding traction, the company said. Andrew Briggs, Yokohama Tire senior director of tire business and product planning, said: “The M/T has it all: intimidating good looks, superior strength, proven performance and excellent traction in all on- and offroad terrains, from everyday highway driving to attacking steep, jagged rocks; muddy trails and desert sand.”

According to Yokohama, independent test results have shown that the Geolandar M/T outperforms leading competitors in longer lasting tread life (8% longer), shorter stopping distance on wet roads (51 feet shorter) and reduced road noise by 2.3 decibels.
