Thanks to Robot Kingdom's Facebook Page we now have some new images of Flame Toys Optimus Prime. We will post them below so you can have a look too. While this model kit does not transform is does pack over 40 points of articulation for great poseability. The post mentions that is made from ABS plastic which model fans should appreciate. This figure will be 15.5cm which is about 6 inches for those of us in the US. Also, according to the packaging this model has interchangeable hands as well as his ax and gun.These images are subject to change as the manufacturer approves the final process.

I wonder if it would look better without the exaggerated poses. Kinda hard to judge if I like the stylization when they don't show the kit standing straight...

I think they went a little overboard with the stylish ab crunch. It looks like he's constantly doing a pelvis thrust.

Yeah his abs remind me of how they look in TFP with how skinny he is. He's very triagular. I kinda wonder if that is his most neutral pose in the first 2 pics.

I’m not gonna lie, I think I’m more excited for these model kits over anything coming out of Generations any time soon. Hopefully they’re close to the quality of Bandai’s kits.
I think if you go through the pictures from the shows they were at, they’re in more neutral poses. I like a little bit of thrust on my robots but that’s way too much.

It looks nice, even with the pelvis thrust/ab crunch look, but I swear I saw this exact same iteration of Prime somewhere, I think it was a 3rd party figure from Perfect Effect ir something. Talk about knocking off an IP-infringer

I think this will look nice next to my other kits, exaggerated abs or not (wold be nice if that was on of the articulation points so his spine could straighten up)
I would also love a transformers anime by studio trigger

As would I, I find model kits fun. The only thing is that its Robot Kingdom, they are usually the cheaper alternative (before the horrendous shipping). This will probably be more like 50$ at BBTS. I am trying to figure out how it would look like unpainted since i have no paint skills (or patience).

No need to guess on a price, they're listed at $39.99 on TFSource.
I've only been half paying attention to the model kits. I had no idea they actually were being designed by Studio Trigger, I thought people were just joking about that. Definitely buying them now! Flame Toys updated their Facebook page with details last Friday along with photos without the RK watermark:
They've also added two more images Sunday really showing his range of motion.

I pre-ordered the @#%! outta him at BBTS.com earlier today. $35.99. I have so many Optimus Primes that transform that this model's inability to transform is a total non-issue for me. This just looks too awesome to pass up, and the wide range of poseability all but guarantees that I'll be fidgeting with him a lot. At the very least, I hope we get a good Megatron to go up against him at some point.

While we have seen most of these images of the Flame Toys non-transforming Optimus Prime model kit, they did have a watermark slap bang in the middle of them - and this piece of news is also warranted by the press release from BlueFin, the North American distributor, confirming the retail price of $36 USD and opening pre-orders for the set! Check out more info and the images below.

Is it an unwritten rule that none transforming Primes have to either be hideously ugly, horrendously expensive, or, if at all possible, both?

Thanks to Weibo user 漫港湾, we have some in-hand images of a retail production prototype (rather than display copy) for the officially licensed but non transforming Flame Toys figure Tarn - the second in their highly detailed and highly posable figures inspired by the IDW Publishing comics. The leader of the Decepticon Justice Division can be seen below, with his mask in full view, what seems to be electronic for his optics, and some scene re-enactions with Drift - the first figure from their line.
Check it all out, and let us know what you think in the Energon Pub discussion boards!

We're on day two of San Diego Comic Con 2018, and just before we head back into the convetnion hall, we have some images from the Bluefin booth covering the Flame Toys figures - the officialli licensed non-transforming action figures based on IDW Transformers designs - including their model kits, super deformed and stylised, plus the larger, super poseable figures for Tarn, Staar Saber and Optimus Prime.
Among the model kits, you'll spot both Optimus and Nemesis Prime, plus a small Bumblebee in the superdeformed line and a fully equipped grey prototype, and a Starscream taking a nap on the display cases floor. Check out the images below, and stay tuned for more coverage from the event as the weekend goes on!

Based on these pics, I'd say the Optimus IDW model kit looks better than the high end figure. That high end figure needs some work. I was excited for it, but less so after these pics. The torso into the waist into the hips looks off - too skinny a waist maybe...

And Star Saber looks pretty frikkin boss

While we're still trying to track down the actual source of these images (though we know they are from the preview events over at ACG HK in Hong Kong), we have a new look in full colour at the Flame Toys non-transforming but officially licensed Transformers Star Saber figure - the third in their super posable line - and a newly revealed fourth grey prototype which can combine with the former: Victory Leo!
Check out the images below and let us know what you think in the Energon Pub discussion boards! It doesn't look like Leo has a robot mode, but the result - which is totally not GaoGaiGar from Brave - is pretty impressive nonetheless.

A few questions:
How much? And how soon can it get to me?
These are amazing, the detail...the sculpting...I don't care they don't transform properly, these are a thing of beauty. And I'm not just saying that as a massive fan of Gaogaigar Final (this totally looks like Genesic GaoGaiGar in combined form)

I am so glad I plan to get a lot less generations stuff next year.... I really want this. I will pre-order both as soon as they are ready.
Seriously, this is the coolest thing I have ever seen in the Transformers world.

Flame Toys is making a lot of news here recently, the most recent of which was the reveal that their IDW Star Saber statue can combine with the newly revealed Victory Leo statue to form a very stylized Victory Saber. (Yes Please)
But something Flame Toys has dipped their toes into as well are the build-able statues, and that is where today's news takes us. Following their first Furai Optimus Prime kit, which is available widely for Pre-Order and due this September, we have news that their second model kit is now going up on live Pre-Orders as well, and that second kit is Starscream!
Their new build-able kit of Starscream follows in the paths of their previous Optimus Prime, bringing a decidely Japanese design to the party for the old Seeker. The Pre-Orders currently have him up for $40, the same general price found for Prime, and due out in October.

Honestly, unless Optimus really sucks, I intend to go all in on these guys.
So right now, I have Prime on pre-order. I plan to pre-order Starscream once TFsource gets his link up. And with the Nemesis Prime revealed at SDCC, I'll get him too. And Bee and Hound will both come once they are fully colored and ready for pre-orders, so right there are 5 model kits, wow.
Also, TFsource needs to get the Star Saber pre-orders up, and I will need to wait with the eyes of a hawk for Victory Leo.
So 5 kits and 2 statues. But so much awesomeness......

It's the theme for the Japanese stylizations, and I did it. I like these new designs a lot

Awesome! I'm on that. I've been waiting for Flame to make a character that I'm really into to pick up one of these amazing figures. Star Saber will be it! And to think that they are making Leo to go with him...amazing!

The Flame Toys news keeps on trucking along today folks! Even after the Reveal of Victory Saber and the pre-orders going live for the Starscream Furai model kit, we have even more news to share with you, and this time it is a special and a first: we are getting our first look at Flame Toys IDW Autobot Megatron!
This Megatron is another one of their model kits, and he is the 2nd of their IDW designs after Optimus Prime, whom we got a glimpse at during San Diego Comic Con. This Megatron is directly based on his Alex Milne design from More Than Meets The Eye, and even includes an Autobot insignia engraved on his chest, the first official Megatron toy to go so far as to have an Autobot symbol permanently attached to his body.
You can sort of see the previously mentioned IDW Prime, for the first time in color, along with part of the Furai model kit Bumblebee, also for the first time in color. We will provide more images of all the Flame Toy's kits as they become available to us.
Update: We also have images from the same show of the newly revealed Devastator and Nemesis Prime.
