Greetings Seibertronians! As many fans will be aware, Flane Toys produce officially licensed non-transforming model kit's and high end figures, and always seem to have something new on the way. Case in point (and thanks to fellow Seibertron user, blackeyedprime; for sharing this on our forums), Flame Toys have taken to twitter to reveal another new entry in their Furai Action range, Leo Convoy!

That's not all though, they've also announced open preorders for two more entries in their model kit range: IDW Rodimus, and Shattered Glass Drift!

While no price has been given for Leo Convoy, both the model kits are set to retail for $40.

What do you think of these? Will you get getting any of them, let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

Rodimus is a Guyver. Meh. >:oP

Drift is yet another Gundam. Meh. >:oP

But that Lio Convoy... HOLY SEXY MOFO!

Too bad that Lio is not a kit.

Only positive thin I can say about Rodimus, is that I like the visible wheels on the back of his forearms.

Much like Kanrabat, I also wish Lio Convoy was a kit.

Lio is a kit though, that's what the Furai line is. The Kuro Kara Kuri line is the obscenely priced figures.

Nope, Lio is "Furai Action", the action figure line in the same style as Furai Model. They aren't priced like the model line, though. IDW Optimus Prime from last year was $75, but Optimus Primal coming in April in nearly $200. Lio will probably be somewhere in between I'm guessing.

Lio and Primal kits are coming, though.

Lio looks great, but no kit no buy for me.

Rodimus is so obscenely IDW and perfect I will get him.

SG Drift is good, I am trying to sell my regular Drift kit (still sealed) because I have the Generations one and the kit was entirely redundant and a bad buy, but SG for the SG shelf is much better.

BTW, if anyone wants a Starscream or Drift kit, HMU, I'm getting rid of those 2.

Hasbros also letting Flametoys do Power Rangers by the looks of things. My wallet would cry but I don't have one.

I kinda like the Rodimus, to my eyes his legs would have to be a bit longer for a Guyver/Phantom 2040 look. Drift looks okay but he's not really my thing with me not owning a single Drift figure yet -though the SS copter was tempting.

Greetings Seibertronians! Fellow Seibertron user, Powered Convoy, has informed us that Flame Toys have announced a entrant in their high end non-transforming Kuro Kara Kuri line: Shattered Glass Optimus Prime!

This is a redeco of one of the earliest entries in the ever-growing line, Shattered Glass Prime looks suitably menacing in his purple colour scheme. The character debuted in Fun Pubs Shattered Glass 2008 Botcon set (where the toy was a redeco'ed Classics Voyager Class Optimus Prime), and he's remained in the famdoms popular consciousness.

Here is what Flame Toys said:

It is a confusing name with a bad abbreviation.

I'm not preordering before I can see in hand pictures and reviews. It also depends on the price.

So I'll wait and see.

Greetings Seibertronians! Flame Toys have announced that the next model in the Furai Model Kit line is available to preorder! Who is the character this time? It's Windblade!

Windblade was announced some time ago but has gone under several redesigns since the initial concepts. The character was created through the first fan poll that Hasbro ran, having fans choose different aspects of the design. She also recieved several IDW miniseries in the old run, and featured in several cartoon series since then such as RiD2015 and Cyberverse.

What do you think of this model? Will you be adding her to your collections?

I like her enough I've preordered her from two separate sites (in case anything goes wrong with either, and also because I like how this looks that much). One will be Windblade herself whilst the other will be kitbashed into someone else. As she has very little in the way of integrated plane kibble she could be made into basically anyone...hmmm. I have an idea...

Re: New Flame Toys Preorders and Reveals (2099750)
Posted by -Kanrabat- on March 29th, 2021 @ 4:04pm CDT

Woah... Dat Windblade...

This may be my first ever Flame Toys purchase ever.
Once the preorders for her are live at a Canadian online store, I'm so preordering! :BOWDOWN:

Pre-ordered. I remember I used to hate Windblade, but now I have a lot of her on a shelf. Same with Barricade.

Greetings Seibertronians! Officially licensed third party company, Flame Toys, have recently taken to their social media channels to promote their upcoming Shattered Glass Drift Furai Model Kit! To this end they furnished their posts with several new images! We get a good look at the box art and all the runners for the kit that you'll be using to make this fantastic, non-transforming, model.

Shattered Glass Drift is based from the Shattered Glass concept, popularised by the Mirror Universe from the Star Trek franchise and introduced to Transformers via the BotCon 2008 set. Drift here is depicted as being part of the Villainous Autobots.

Will you be building Drift up? Have you got his regular colour version?

Flame Toys got sloppy in engineering at the lower legs & feet. Otherwise it looks perfect.

Weibo user Notrab shared some images of the upcoming Transformers Optimus Primal figure.

This is from Flame Toys' "budget" line, called the Furai Action line and it is a fully assembled figure. This is a slight reimagining of the character in their style. I comes with a mutant mask head, which is also slightly reimagined, along with some weapons. You'll let us know what you think.

Re: New Flame Toys Preorders and Reveals (2104166)

That battle mask is awesome!

Posted by -Kanrabat- on May 11th, 2021 @ 11:07am CDT

It's just unfortunate that this BAD-ASS Primal is not transformable. It wouldn't add that many parts to make him transform in ape mode. I really want to see how the ape would look.

Re: New Flame Toys Preorders and Reveals (2104184)
Posted by blackeyedprime on May 11th, 2021 @ 12:40pm CDT

It's growing on me since the unpainted prototype that was a bit generic. Not a must have, hopefully master made will get round to some super deformed from other tf lines as a sd Primal with adjustabl facial expressions (bot and beast) would be awesome.

He's nice, but I'll wait for the model kit. Not paying $175 for this.

Greetings Seibertronians! Flame Toys taken to their Twitter account to give us more images of their Kuro Kara Kuri Victory Leo to salivate over!

These new images show him with his box and also include two messages images of him combined with their previously released, Star Saber! The indominating looking Victory Saber is a re-imagined combined form for the pair.

What do you think of this high end figure?

Getting major Yuusha/Brave vibes there, and the boots actually look decent in this configuration! I like how the lion legs form bracing stabilizers (presumably to absorb the recoil of those cannons) on his boots, and the lion chest is a great addition to the design. A shame I'm not in the market for this, because it does look cool.

Flame Toys' Opitmus Primal toy is going to be released very soon. At just shy of $200, many fans are hesitant, so we want to give you as much info as we have on the product.

It is sold out from a few online places, so check with your dedicated online collectible retailer if they have any left in stock.

Yeah, this is what the original combination should have looked like. Far more creative than just turning Victory Leo into a backpack and boots for Star Saber.

If you're a big fan (or even a moderate fan) of Flame Toys' Transformers Furai Model line then there's some good news coming your way! The company officially announced Friday from the ACG HK 2021 event that the latest entries to the plastic model line will be Bludgeon and Banzaitron! For some this is the most ideal use of the Furai Model line: a Pretender and an Action Master. And no, they don't share any parts, the two martial arts masters will be entirely new sets of molds. Like many Furai Models the pair is designed by Akira Amemiya of Studio Trigger, but lack his trademark stylizations (See: Optimus Prime (Attack Mode), Starscream and Devastator). More as we learn it!

In other news, the SDCC 2021 Furai Model G1 Nemesis Prime exclusive is now available to order at Bluefin for the reasonable price of $40 even. He comes with all the same accessories as the Optimus Prime kit, stands 6" tall and has 40 points of articulation. Release is expected to be August 15, 2021 meaning you wont have to wait long to get the evil doppelganger in your collection.

Like what you see or tired of Transformers that don't transform (even though these two typically transform as is anyway)? Let us know in the Energon Pub Forums!

Gotta admit, I'd be tempted bu both of these undeads. But I'll need more than concept art to bite.

There's also Arcee and Blackarachnia in the works. I've seen prototype pictures somewhere...

Banzaitron isn't "undead", only Bludgeon is.

Now, if there's a way to customize Bludgeon into being a pretender shell for a custom, smaller Bludgeon figure, then this is thing will sell like hot cakes. Hopefully, more, non-transforming characters will be released, thus making these figures actually relevant to the needs of more TF fans.

I know, right? I really hope both FT and S7 continue to make more "literal" non-transforming toys. I really think that they're the ones most of us want from a line like this. Then, perhaps Hasbro will wake up and start making RED series versions (but hopefully with better QC).

Did this get posted? Because if not, Furai Model Acid Storm!

I was actually contemplating painting my Skywarp up as Acid Storm and I'm glad I held off now! I might have to get this; I have some of Alclad II's Candy Enamel Bottle Green, and I reckon I could give him a really cool deco.
