New Images of Flame Toys Kuro Kara Kuri Victory Saber and Pricing, Release Date for Victory Leo

Nice looking Gundam figures.

My thought exactly.
Still, the original G1 design is pretty "gundamish" so it get a pass.

Those figures are damn epic! And the price too...

You say Gundam, but Victory Saber is basically homaging Gaogaigar

Came here to basically say that.

Looks damned nice though!

No offence guys but I think you'll find it's a design coming full circle as G1 Victory Saber influenced the Brave Series (being done by the same people after all) of which Genesic GaoGaiGar was the last...

Though its now amusing to think that despite all the work they put into it, the brave series would come to be owned by Bandai

And Bandai make Gundam.

At this point, it's no longer a circle. It's an ouroboros.

Bandai own all the best non-tf mecha

Would still kill for a proper gundam x Transformers story mind. O can see humans building mobile suits to fight Cybertronians on an equal footing.

Well, close enough...

Eh, I honestly don't much care for crossovers. Unless they're very silly, or tongue-in-cheek oneshots, I find them kinda hokey. They can work- Space Patrol Luluco having the characters meet other Trigger anime denizens like Sucy, INFERNO COP and so on was funny as hell, but none of those shows were meant to be serious.

Anyway.

Victory Sabre looks amazing! I know it's not Victory accurate but having the lion chest really makes him look even more awesome. I always thought the standard "platform shoes and a backpack" setup was kind of boring so this is a change for the better.

Not offence taken. Always good to learn new stuff.

This year's New York Comic Con didn't happen as scheduled but the planned exclusive products for the event are still finding avenues for release. A Flame Toys model kit version of Bug Bite has been available to preorder since late last week as an exclusive on the Bluefin website. This is a recolor of their earlier Bumblebee kit, is set to ship out in about a month and will set you back $37 before shipping and tax. Like all Flame Toys kits, this version of Bug Bite does not transform.

The 16th entry of the Furai Model line, Bug Bite is here! Bug Bite was recently seen in the trailer for Transformers: War for Cybertron Earthrise on Netflix! The model is about 5.5 inches tall and 6 inches tall with the helicopter engine equipped. The model has over 50 movable joints that let's you set any pose easily. Model kit is made of hard plastic ABS & P and is good for experienced modelers and newcomers alike! This model is a NYCC Bluefin exclusive!

The preorder window for this kit is limited though a solid end time isn't posted, so it may be wise to act now if you're looking to add this kit to your collection.

I sense an incoming Masterpiece too. Yet again, I am no Jedi (nor Sith, unfortunately).

Forget the MP. They couldn't even make Select Bugbite into the VW Bee in the first place.

That actually makes sense, since there could have been licensing issues that they could only justify for a major character such as 'bee.

As much as I preferred the first MP 'bee, for the second one they barely homaged a real-world car, meaning they probably can simply repaint it without any additional fee, thus amortising all the engineering behind it on a new figure.

Yet, as stated before, I am no fortune-teller.

VW have a tight leash on their license. Even in super deformed "toon car" looks, the license still apply with the logo and everything.

You're probably right, I saw the VW logo on the box of MP-45. I didn't remember it well, since I skipped that particular toy.

I do like the nod to the Action Master Bumblebee figure.

That Fallen is absolutely BAD-ASS!

Being rich with the mansion to go with it, I'd be all over that figure. But sadly, my Titanium Fallen will have to do.

Honestly, Titanium is the best representation of the fallen there is that does not cost $400 bucks.

My only issues with it are his rubbery guns, and his non descript hand blocks. Outside of that its one of the better Titanium Figures, and i own G.I. Joe Megs. So I kmow.

I was cool with it until they said he was $400

Officially speaking yes. But including 3p? I respectfully disagree.

Is the any other fallen figure outside of the titanium? Excluding the bay design.

The point is that talk of 3rd party figures stay in the non- Transformers and KO forum this toy forum is for official stuff only.

I'd love to see a "G1" Commander class The Fallen figure.
Because as good as the Titanium is, it's pretty outdated.

A Fallen in any size class of Voyager or up would be great. Him and an actually accurate Nova Prime- I've never cared for IDW but he had such a cool design.

Speaking of old perpetually on fire comic characters that need new figures, when the hell are we getting a decent Sunstorm? A friend of mine had a cool idea of molding parts of him in clear orange plastic that had gold chrome applied to the inside, as if he were blazing with solar power.

Ah I didn't realize I was forbidden from discussing it. Judging by the rude responses, I will refrain from commenting in the future.

Some, not called out as "The Fallen", but by his original name of Megatronus (Prime):

If you feel like customizing, in the Train Wars manga, he appeared as a redeco of FoC Onslaught:

No need to refrain from commenting no harm was done.

There are several nods to him as pointed out. And of course this very $400 dollar figure.

And yes I agree he needs an update. A retool of Siege Megs would like work.

-Kanrabat- wrote:Because as good as the Titanium is, it's pretty outdated.

No, it's shit. It had potential but the over-abudance of die-cast ruined it like most of the Titanium line.

Its interesting that hasbro have moved away from the monkier 'The Fallen', we haven't even had a movie version of the character in Studio Series yet. Then again, who knows what the next generations line will bring.

Of those nods, the non-toy FoC is the closest to the original Dreamwave one if I may add:

Flames and a knight-like visor or bust.

Yes. Exactly.

I could see them release him as Selects figure.

Well, it's good... as far as Titanium go. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
There's worst figures. There's better ones. Titanium Fallen is at least average in it's category. This ain't saying much.

Flame Toys The Fallen looks like their Tarn. Weird gorilla proportions.

According to that post this will be a Furai Model, so one of the kit releases. Looks good, even if I'm not a fan of the design.

I really hope it is, I was so bummed when Primal wasn't a kit and he was almost $200. That's a no from me

Fingers crossed.

Greetings Seibertronians! Fellow Seibertron users, Powered Convoy and -WonkoTheSane-, we've learned that Flame Toys have taken to their social media accounts to show off the first coloured image of their Furai IDW Rodimus model kit!



Through the post, they've also announced that preorders will open for this kit on December 12th, at 12 p.m. (Hong Kong time)!

This design, as the name suggests, originates from the IDW Transformers comic series, More Than Meets The Eye (later rebranded Lost Light).

Will you be picking this model up? Have you made many of Flame Toys output so far? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

That Rodimus looks PERFECT!
The colors are a little too dark for my tastes, But this is probably a painted sample, Versus the plastic molded coloring one that'll be released.
I'm happy this great design finally has an official figure (obviously non-transforming, But that's a small price to pay, IMO).
Will be preordering the minute it goes up.
Also planing to do a review of it when it comes out, So watch out for that.
Oh, Also gonna need a black/purple repaint.

That Rodimus look awesome.... if's Rodimus was a human in armor. Because this one have the "Bayformer syndrome" of looking like a bot that cannot transform into anything.

That's a problem with a lot of the IDW designs after the aesthetic shift, IMO.

This kit remains my favorite that Flame Toys has put out. Devastator is a close second. Love this guy

My favorite too.
On the note of other Autobot Megatrons, There was that Combiner Wars one, But that looked nothing like Autobot Megatron (And was officially sold as Decepticon Megatron), And just inexplicably came with an Autobot symbol.
I always hoped that since the whole Autobot Megatron thing was done so well, That people would eventually get over the initial knee-jerk reaction.. But the very concept is so subversive to what is expected (Which is one of the reasons I like it so much), That some people still have reservations to the idea.
From Hasbro/Takara's point of view, They probably see Decepticon Megatron as a safer bet; What sells easier.
If more ambiguity is portrayed in Megatron's motives in future media, More people might warm to the idea, But as of now, I wouldn't expect any Autobot Megatrons from HasTak anytime soon.
:Shrug:

Autobot Megatron ended up working out so well, I love it.

I do have the CW Megs with his Autobot symbol on, have had him that way since I bought him. That one in particular is and will remain my transforming Autobot Megatron
