I agree. This gives us options.
The 3P guys are there for those who want ones that Transform, but they are more expensive and unlicensed, which is why I haven't bought any.
And while these ones don't Transform, they are official and they are kits, which are really cool, and it helps in the "Attack Mode" and the "IDW" kits to not transform, so they can utilize every ounce of exaggeration in their design, which is awesome to me. I don't mind them not transforming since they are kits.
I really think that should Flame Toys keep going, we could get some more Awesome IDW MTMTE kits, and maybe even start branching out more into kits of the 13. I think this line as the potential to go on for years and give us a lot of cool designs that we have been aching for

Sheesh, Will. We're supposed to stop murders, not commit them
I did see a really nice (and surprisingly affordable) Macross model kit that was really articulated and could transform. But I assume since most Transformers need to look a particular way, having them transform without being a shellformer or partsformer would have them lose articulation.
On the subject of 3P, or more precisely, IP-infringing products, I thought Tyranttron had a pretty weak alt mode (Siege Megatron's was better lol), and pretty expensive, so I would much rather get this guy instead

And besides, mine doesn't transform, but it'll be fun to build him and pose him to buggery and beyond. I don't mind the non-transforming type whenever they are buildable

Well we have good news for them, the Flame Toys Transformers Optimus Prime Model Kit (IDW Version) is available at Barnes and Noble. The bookstore seems to be the main distributor of these kits in the US and continues to stock them as they are released, to a much later date though. We have an image below of this Optimus found in the store. You can also purchase the kit online at the Barnes and Noble website. The figure is $35.99 and features a ton of articulation, rifle, and a choice of six hands.

I don’t recall the anime like Optimus but Starscream and IDW Optimus so far have been seen so if people buy them I’m sure they’ll keep ordering them.
