We have official images for:
Victory Leo: Grey model so far, this fully articulated figure combined with their Star Saber to make Victory Saber (a really cool grey area of a non Hasbro/Takara company able to make somewhat of a Transforming figure).
Optimus Prime: Grey model so far, this fully articulate figure comes with a giant sword.
IDW Bomber Megatron: We only have the comic image they will be basing this fully articulated figure off of.
Shattered Glass Drift: this is a red redeco of the fully articulated Drift figure they released.
Bumblebee: Coloured images of this new model kit.
Optimus Prime : Model kit with preorders now open.
Nemesis Prime: First coloured images of this recolour of the Optimus prime kit mentionned above.
IDW Optimus: Coloured imaged of this new model kit.
IDW Autobot Megatron: Grey model of this upcoming model kit. He is seen with an autobot symbol, it is unsure if there is an option to change that to a Decepticon one.
All of these images were shown on Flame Toys' Twitter.

You might have read the original Autobot Megatron post. I made that post before heading to bed, and Devastator got added onto it a bit after I posted it. so you probably missed them adding it on since you read it when it was just Megs

Ah, that would definitely have explained it. I remembered Megatron, but for the life of me couldn't remember seeing Devastator before. Started thinking I was going crazy.

While the video review does not include the build itself, Peaugh does make mention of the time it took him to build, which was 3 hours, though 3 hours with interruptions, as he mentions.
Check out the video, and let us know what you think of this new model kit below!

Anime style is pretty accurate since it was designed by Akira Amemiya, best known for designing this:
Gurren Lagann
And he is indeed a Transformers fan, here's a bit of fanart from him.

I have an army of transformable Optimus Primes, so the fact that this one doesn't transform doesn't bother me in the least. For me, this is 100% about the bot design, completely uninhibited by the real-world limitations of making necessary compromises to the bot mode in order to accommodate one or more alt modes, while keeping the price out of the stratosphere. If I only own one version of a particular character, then yes, the ability to transform is mandatory. In this case, however, the complete dedication to the bot mode and the focus on its poseability rather than its transformability is exactly what appeals to me.

Yeah, and there's only so much money any of us can make. It's the folk with extremely well paying jobs or lottery winners that can just freely buy whatever figures and toys and statues they darn well like.

But money can buy you space. Though it requires a lot of the monies.

Becuase it can’t transform. Theirs party companies that are licensed from Hasbro aren’t allowed to transform. That’s why they’re making them look so stylized

Man, I HATE comments like this. As if it's that easy and clear cut. What if I can't budget for a Titan unless I stop buying three Leaders that I also want equally, now what? Stop buying the things you want to buy this other thing you want, what a childish way to look at things. You're still going to want the things you didn't buy so you're missing out no matter what. If your car breaks down or your house leaks, yeah, you stop buying things you want in place of the things you need, but balancing one want against another is never as easy as you make it sound.

While IDW Star Saber didn't show this ability (from my knowledge, at least), this figure, which is based of the crazed IDW Star Saber, can be turned into Saber! This is presumably done by exchanging and removing multiple parts and switching the old head out for a new one.
Thoughts on this? Does this make the figure appeal to you more now? Tell us your thoughts in the Pub forums below!
Posted by Emerje on November 24th, 2018 @ 3:56pm CST
Looks like the change is a matter of removing all the stuff from his upper arms and lower legs, replacing the forearms, and replacing the head. Can't tell, but his backpack might be different as well.

The description clearly reads "FuRai Model" just like the previous kits. As with the Optimus and Starscream, and upcoming IDW Optimus, this is a model kit.
