New Bumblebee Statue Teaser from Prime 1 Studio Transformers

A double whammy today from Prime 1 Studio, the officially licensed Transformers statue makers, as the Bumblebee Movie hype train has clearly left the Cybertron station - the next sculpt they're teasing on their Facebook page is none other than big bulky bad, possibly triple changing though we have no full confirmation yet, Blitzwing himself, as seen in most of the footage shown in trailers and clips so far from Paramount!

Check out the grey prototype, this time with red optics, below, and let us know what you think in the Energon Pub discussion boards. Who is buying these statues after all?

So I guess blitzwing is relegated to a seeker and his design matches, and since dropkick and shatter are triple changers, maybe he's their triple changing leader?

Theories aside, I love the head design. It's like the "07 Movie G1 Seeker" head mixed with Kold War Scorpion.

Is that a tank tread on the bottom left?

not sure this is the best place to post this, but i have to ask:
why did they make a character who looks dang-near spot-on to g1 starscream, then call him blitzwing? it's not like starscream had a consistent design over the last 10 years, with the movie, prime, RID, and hte cybertron games. why the change?

Shatter is rumored to be the lead Decepticon of this movie.

The face looks very Blackout-esc to me.

Straxus anyone?

Thanks to the Prime 1 Studio Instagram page straight from Shanghai Comic Con, we have word that their latest statue has been revealed, and it is none other than the main character from the upcoming movie named after him: Bumblebee!

This new statue features movie Bumblebee in all his VW goodness, and includes his new rounder and more cuddly shape. The statue also comes with his newly redesigned arm blaster, and features a stand made out of what appears to be simulated broken concrete, broken pillars, a spare tire, and underneath, a nice metal stand with an Autobot symbol on it. Of note here is that this statue uses the door wings that the movie character himself does not have, though this is has been a consistent design in almost all of his toys in this form, so there's no real surprise there.

Check out the image of the new Prime 1 statue below, and let us know what you think of this guy in the comments section below!

I'm starting to hope that we might see the door wings in the final CG design. It would make sense that they would be there since the robot mode would look more complete with them.

A statue made to be as much 100% movie accurate as possible.

Still got screwed with the door-wings.

I wonder if the door wings will be retractable in the film, kinda like the battle mask?

I should have waited to buy a SS Bumblebee until after they push out a second series of them where the door wings fold onto the back.

I wonder if people will continue to be in denial of the doorwings even after the movie comes out and the door wings most likely appear up-right in a bunch of scenes.

I think we saw the wings retract a little when he was trying to get through the door to the house, but I might have been seeing that wrong.

Emerje

He looks better with door wings and they fit his whole Bee thing anyways.

Seibertron's own Nathaniel Prime has directed us towards Prime 1 Studios Facebook who have teased an upcoming Transformers: Bumblebee statue of Optimus Prime.

That Drift is pretty damn awesome.
And it's further proof that only high-end non-transforming figures can truly give the movie designs justice.

But they are wrong. Because only TRUE 100% accuracy for the bot mode can only be achieved with a statue / figure.

They are about as wrong as many G1 MPs are wrong. They are really accurate and are better than the statues cause they can transform. to me, they do it better justice by this fact. 100% perfection is only achievable on a statue yes, but that is the same for almost any design, including the new MPs, so I still say MPM Bee and Barricade are proof you can truly give justice to movie figures and still transform

Yes, but that's not the point of the statue. The statue don't mean interaction. It only serve for the perfect look. Both serve different purposes. Thus it's like comparing apple and orange.

Okay, that was one of he coolest videos I’ve seen and I don’t know a lot about prime 1 stuff so I gotta ask, are they just held together by magnets?

Damn. This is quite impressive and it's brilliant to see that everything hold with magnets. But man, one must take a mortgage in order to afford the thing and it's shipping cost!

Man that’s a lotta pieces. I thought it would be like arms and legs attaching to the torso. I loved this Shockwave design. Hopefully a Studio Series fig isn’t far off

Thanks to a few posts to TFsource's Twitter account yesterday we have some images of the amazing upcoming Bumblebee movie Soundwave statue from Prime 1 Studio. Still no official word on price or release yet but once you see this thing you will likely be quite willing to sit tight patiently and start saving money because, wow. This bot looks absolutely stunning and like he just came off the movie screen. As he was in the movie, this Soundwave comes with his stealthiest and most cunning of minions, the fearsome Ravage. Just ogle the details on not just Soundwave but Ravage too and you will think this is a genuine production model from the movie. As always share your thoughts in the forum and stay tuned to Seibertron for further details on this upcoming piece of toy art.

I can afford to look at the pretty pictures at least.

The design of Ravage's head looks more wolf-like than panther. Grant it he has always had a long snout, but definitely getting a more canine vibe here.

I always saw Ravage as a "cat-dog".

Wasn't that a Nickelodeon cartoon back in the day

Whatever happened with that Arcee Stature we saw the prototype for, wasn't like last year?

Some of the Cybertron designs were really good and other ones like Soundwave just came out weird. I think it's mostly the head and the pelvis that are doing it. His head looks big and flat and they should have gotten rid of the red arrows.

i would like them to do the seekers

I always thought that Soundwave in this film looked like a costume. Because they did so well with it, I can't tell. Ravage looks a lot better than before.

Prime 1 Studios has given us some fantastic live action figures over the years, with highly detailed and very large statues representing our favorite on-screen heroes covering a wide range of characters from the Movie-verse. And to celebrate 8 years of producing these statues, they have revealed their newest offering for all to see: Revenge of the Fallen Optimus Prime!

Revenge of the Fallen Optimus Prime is a statue of giant proportions. Among his impressive and imposing presence is the fact that he stands 29 inches tall, so right up there with the Haslab Unicron in terms of size. And he certainly contains more detail and a truly impressive paint job. He also features a plethora of display options, which include different hands, arms, weapons, and more so you can customize him and up and make him look downright awesome.

While we don't have a release date or a price yet (though the statue will be expensive as past ones have been), we do have a bunch of nice images for the upcoming statue for you. We will share some below, and you can follow the above link to view the full gallery.

Check it out below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

Man, that's super cool. I like that it can replicate the pose from the statue at Transformers: The Ride (even down to the upside-down sword), and I don't think I ever realized that there were blue panels on the Ion blasters.

It's way too expensive, but they are at least really cool to look at (and great reference for painting).

Funny, because the Universal studios ride is the only place I've ever seen these guys in real life. They are awesome, but too much for me.

They are extremely cool, but far too costly unless you have a lot of money or only collect things like this.

It is imposing and fantastic though, they always make great statues!

Browsing Facebook I found these images of what appears to be Dinobot for the line "Prime 1 Studio", I have nothing confirmed, even since the images from which they came out do not give information, we hope results.

They can see the Megatron and Optimus Primal heads, but the head of Dinobot is unknown, could it be that the same company is planning to make a statue of it too?, a render 3D of the Maximal was also shown.

With the lack of conventions this year, Prime 1 Studios made a really cool video to showcase all their upcoming statues. They make high end Transformers statues, usually movie themed, and were sure to include them as part of the presentation. They showed Age of Extinction Grimlock, Movie 1 Blackout and his companion Scorponok. These statues are MASSIVE. Just look at that screenshot of Blackout below. Most of these will be up for preorder very soon. We also have the video for you below, the Transformers begin at the 35 minute mark.

For the relatively rich guy who own a freaking MANSION.

Maybe there are some movie stars who are fans.

Either way, they keep making these things, so some folks must be buying them.

Yup, it adheres to the main models of commerce. These are expensive, but they definitely give a lot more for people who find value/prestige in owning these. Basically you are paying more to get a lot more and getting something that few others have.

yeah it would have to be a mansion with its décor dedicated to everything transformers with all the statues, busts and artwork in every room

Well, that's basically what I already have. But I ran out of space ages ago and my locker is gradually filling up.

My main point with these statues was not really the price. But WHERE in the freaking hell can the casual collector display such a MONSTER?
And it's not something you can just display on the floor like a Titan.
