Additional Images of Transformers: The Last Knight Jada Diecast Models, Plus Reveal of Coins and Optimus Prime

Damn. Those are really nice.

I'm about 500 percent temped to just buy a deep impact blue mustang model and kitbash the sides and rear onto barricade.

We had images of the Jada 1:24 scaled diecast cars a little while ago and now the same source, Paulmartstore.com has put up listings for the 1:32 and 1:62 scaled cars. It is once again a mixture of Optimus, Barricade, Crosshairs and Bumblebee. The dioramas at the back of the 1:62 scaled cars seem to be interlocking to create one long diorama. You will notice that Hot Rod is not present even though he was rumoured to be made and that is because all JADA Hot Rod products will be Walmart exclusives. We have no images of him yet, so if ever you find a Jada Hot Rod toy in Walmart, please take an image and send it to us.

The 1:32 scaled cars are $9.99 while the 1:62 scaled cars are $7.99.

So relatively speaking:

1:24 is Alternator/Binaltech size
1:32 is Alternity/GT size
1:64 is Hot Wheels size?

I guess so.

Just ordered the Bumblebee. Considering Op or Barricade, but I'll see how I like this one first.

Maybe it's because I have always been a car enthusiast, but I am really not a fan of the ricer look of the cars from the last few movies.

I don't see it as a ricer look. Maybe because the mods are well done and look good on the cars? And it's not like they threw a wing and a splitter on a '01 Corolla or anything. They're top of the line Corvettes and Camaros, I think that helps for me at least.

EDIT: Plus, you've got a stock DB-11, Mclaren, and Centenario in TLK, so I suppose that's progress. (AND an old Citroën!)

What does a ricer look mean?

More and more random merchandise for The Last Knight continues to come out as we near the movie's release date, including oddly enough some fancy-looking jewellery! Walmart is selling - exclusively to stores - a Hot Rod necklace and an Autobot/Decepticon symbol pendant for fans brave enough to wear them to a formal event. Check out the links, the images below and tell us on the forums if you spot these in Walmart!

Well, what do you know, new merchandise for Sideways.

That Bot/Con has the G1 style symbols instead of the normal movie ones.

A shame they didnt make individual faction symbols instead of that hideous half and half symbol. I got the silver ones that bbts sold a couple years back. Those were dope.

A "Ricer" is an owner of an overly-modified cheap (normally an import) car. Think "Seventeen year old who wants to turn their beater into a Fast and Furious car". Lots of unnecessary wings, body kits and undercarriage lighting. Now this is not to say that all cars with wings/body kits/undercarriage lighting etc. are Ricers; Obviously when those mods are applied to a car that's of quality/actually meant to go fast, when the mods are applied correctly and fit the car (as most ricer mods are DIY jobs that look awful), and when they serve a genuine purpose other than to look cool, it's justified. From this "up for interpretation" definition comes our current debate. I can see where 'jam is coming from, but I just don't see (mainly Crosshairs and Bee) as looking Riced.

Don't talk to me about cars, man. I'll end up writing essays.

"Ricer"?

That made my day lol !

I grew up with the lowrider crowd so I always found the performance import crowd to be funny as hell. We used to joke about the wings on their trunks make the cars look like shopping carts.

We also have news of some new merchandise appearing on Chinese online retailer Mtime, officially licensed and produced for Transformers: The Last Knight, and featuring caps, hats, cups, mugs, phone holders and cases, t-shirts, and a tire speaker. Check them all out below!

Mugs are I buy nice but phone cases are waste of money two four years new phone will be out with same bendable metal backing aluminum is soft you can bend with your bare hands those cases will not be fit new phones no longer phone cases be worth it if phones didn't keep bigger and bigger for people who have terrible eye sight that they need big phone size of tablet sticks out back pocket for easy taking for pick pocket to steal

Those hats are sweet but the shiny-ness is a little too gaudy for me.

Italian online retailer EMP also has listed a number of officially licensed Transformers and Transformers: The Last Knight merchandise items, from caps to rings to t-shirts, mugs and posters, in occasion of the fifth film's release next week. Check out below some of the merch, and head here for more!
