Transformers toys - Help!

Postby CarmeloLabadie » Thu Nov 25, 2021 11:13 pm

DS is 8 and completely loves his Optimus Prime birthday gift. I am trying to find similar for Christmas but it's like wading through treacle. I want the other characters with the same complexity - I know this toy was around the £50 mark and has around 15/20 steps to transform. I have found a similar looking Bumblebee but it's more like £90 - I don't know if that is the same range plus HGV tax?!

I know this sounds useless but I am not normally bad at all this sort of thing and I am perplexed. The toys on Amazon seem to jump from £25 to £90 and I just don't want to get one that is either too simple or too complex. He is a very mechanically minded 8 year old. Very competent at building things.

And yes I have asked the person who bought it and she said she would get back to me but life has obviously got in the way and I don't want to hassle her although I will next week by when they will all have sold out Tbh I think she is similarly flummoxed.

Help me MN Christmas people - you're my only hope!

Motto: "Love it? GET IT!
It's that simple."
Weapon: Vibro-Axe
It would help to know the exact name of the Optimus he got. Even better with pictures. This way, we would be able to help much more effectively.
Curious about that CW sized "Predaking" from AliExpress?

A picture is worth 1000 words. If you can post one, we can more easily identify the figure and by extension the line it comes from.
