Also on display at Toy Fair were a couple new collectible figures from Comicave Studios. These are 1/22 scale, highly poseable and feature Transformers Age of Extinction Optimus Prime and Bumblebee. The price on these guys have yet to be determined and there is no release info at this time. Stay tuned to Seibertron.com for all your Transformers news.

Why? Prime and Bee had really good versions of these designs as figures. Particularly the japanese Armor Knight Prime. Sure these get to pack in more accuracy for being large, expensive, non-transforming figures but Hasbro and Takara did really well with the toy versions too (I customised my Deluxe Bee to add some extra paintwork and such where I felt it was needed but that's expected with toys)

Fellow Seibertronian CdogCdog4 was able to acquire one of Comicave's Transformers: Age of Extinction collectable Optimus Prime highly articulated and accessorised figure - as we have covered before with promotional material - and shared a video review (plus a written one here) with us. Check it out below!
We've received news via a toy blog of a slew of in-hand images for Comicave Studio's Optimus Prime figure! The figure is 1/22 scale, very film-accurate in sculpt and paintwork, and features a 50% die-cast metal construction, LED-lighted eyes, as well as various accessories and swappable hands. Retail price is about $400. Check out the images mirrored below, and the rest that are available on the blog itself!
That is so damn beautiful. Don't even care that it don't transform if it means getting the robot mode that glorious. Right, so can someone lend me $400? I'll pay you back in weekly installments of one dollar.
