Courtesy of Autobase Aichi and @MilitaryMicros on Instagram(the original source of the pictures), we have some early images of the as yet unreleased Micromachines G1 Optimus Prime Hauler Playset for you! The set contains a non-transforming Optimus Prime cab, as well as a trailer, which can detach from the cab and unfold to form the playset. The set also comes with a G1 Tracks Micromachine, which is naturally compatible with the playset's interactive features, including a rotating stand that conceals a Micromachine within. Looking forward to adding this to your Transformers/Micromachines collection, or thinking of taking a pass? Let us know in the comments!
Check out the images below!

Seconded!
Regarding Micromaster compatibility, though, I think they'd be too big. If memory serves, Micromasters have always been bigger than Micro Machines.

I haven’t applied the stickers yet but you can see how i have it attached with the Bumblebee playset. In regards to the trailer, just like the G1 trailer the stabilizer arms flip out and support the half’s of the trailer, a nice touch. I like on the OP playset you can garage other Autobots; fitting five there. The hidden escape hatch is pretty neat. The car just snaps onto the tabs and stays securely in place.
Overall not a bad playset to have.

Still haven't seen any Transformers Micromachines in stores and I've looked several times. I know I can buy them off Amazon, but I'd like to see them in person first.

I think it's just movie characters.

Based on the Bee and Optimus playsets we got, that is.

My two cents worth with the blind boxes. It would have been nice to see Ironhide from the 07 movie in one of these blind boxes along with Roadbuster. Rather than getting repaints of Brawl and Sentinel Prime. That would complete the 07 Autobot lineup and complete the Wrecker trio.
It is interesting another version of Nemesis Prime is being released. Now you can have both, Peterbilt and the Western Star versions.
The clear Ratchet is neat, that would go along with the clear Optimus Prime that as previously released.
Just has they did a G1 inspired Starscream we now get a G1 inspired Jazz.
Time to start looking.

Oh well but they would definitely be a great addition to your Wreckers collection.

First I found some of the blind packs at Target, used the codes to pick the chase Ratchet!
Currently have him next to the Jada die-cast Bee, which doesn't quite scale but is kinda close enough.
I also went into Five below and found these guys! (Note: Arcee is incorrectly labelled as Elita-1)
There was also a pack with Blackout and Brawl there, and while I unfortunately didn't see them, there are also packs of 07 Bee with Megatron, and Prime with Starscream.
Curious if we'll see more of these two packs in the future, There's some of the DOTM/AOE ones I'd like to pick up!
Posted by SGMLordMirage on July 7th, 2023 @ 7:20pm CDT
I haven’t seen any of these two packs. I know on other sites people have posted about finding them. I don think there is any difference between these and the 4 packs, other than the miss named Arcee. It would be cool just to find them.
It would be nice to see future 2 or 4 packs of those they didn't release originally.

Thanks! There's quite a few gaps they could fill in the line, for example we have 2/3 of the Arcee Triplets and Wreckers, and we're also missing Ironhide

SGMLordMirage wrote:@EMB, again good finds. I didnt mention this prior but i would have never thought to look in a Five and below store. I might have to check one out. I wouldn’t mind having the “chase” Bumblebee. Buying a two pack to get him is so much better than a 4 pack.
Thanks! To my knowledge the 2 packs are exclusive to Five Below so far, but I wouldn't be surprised if we see them pop up in other places. There is also a chase version of Optimus (the transparent one that I think was available in a blind box before), but I didn't see it while I was out.

Not sure how many of the tf micromachines would be ideal for velocitron setting but after cosmos who knows. Still kinda regret not picking up the optimus playset from Target.
I'm sorry, the what version? I didn't even realise Robo Rally was still a thing!

Dunno what renegade studios has to do with robo rally (I'd have to check my board game or Google who made it) but it looks like it's the next board game to have 5000 versions like monopoly :p
Also a really good game if there is more than 3 players, sadly why mine doesn't get used at all.
