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. This non transforming toy is said to be shipping out soon.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Action Masters and Pretenders at last, those are perfect for this line.

Also, the Kuro Kara Kuri cyclonus artwork looks fantastic. I hope they make him as a furai model kit soon

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).

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.

I will be unsurprised if the Acid Storm gets released before Windblade. I don't know if it was announced earlier than this if there would be an Acid Storm, but I get the feeling like it's on preorder so people will have something to tide them over while Windblade is delayed.
Re: The Boss Monkey gets a New Look in Upcoming Flame Toys Transformers Figure (2123718)
Posted by Emerje on December 20th, 2021 @ 8:57pm CST
You may have already seen this on our front page from our site sponsors, but in case you missed it the latest character to get the Furai Model treatment from Flame Toys is Acid Storm! While this isn't a huge surprise, especially knowing that Hasbro tends to favor the green guy over, say, Sunstorm, the the colors are pretty interesting. Acid Storm is one of those characters that doesn't have a truly iconic look. His colors tend to be anywhere from dark green to neon green, camo optional, but this time he's sporting teal and purple highlights that we haven't seen before and they look good! Otherwise this is the same model we've already seen start out as Starscream. As mentioned before he's available for order now and is expected to be out in May 2022.

In other news we have some updated shots of the upcoming Windblade kit expected to be out in February in US after multiple delays. And in a little bit of under the radar catchup we have some first looks at Soundwave, Shockwave, and Arcee kits that were displayed in November at SDCC Special Edition. Interestingly while Arcee and Soundwave have heavily stylized designs Shockwave is purely G1 cartoon inspired.

And finally, it isn't just about the models. We're also treated to an early look at Kuro Kara Kuri Cyclonus and Starscream!

I might be interested in that acid storm and I really don't know why.

I hope Shockwave is just in the early development phase, because he looks a bit plain next to the others, though proportionally I like him. Also hoping Windblade finally gets in soon, I've had her on preorder for months now!

Acid Storm looks great too, though given I paint my kits the base colours don't hugely matter.

I am pretty sure that by the time the new colored images come in, we might get a better understanding of how the figure will look. In the meantime, we can only speculate and wait until further notice.

This one has been a slow burn, but at long last, we seem to finally be getting some more news on the Flame Toys Furai model kit Hound figure. First teased in 2017 and given an advertisement in a Flame Toys catalog in 2018, the Furai model Hound uses the G1 Hound design as a basis before adding the furai stylization onto the frame and seemingly throwing in some movie Hound into the mix too. This Hound figure includes a heavily stylized look complete with lots of guns and what appears to be an eye patch head sculpt. Hound appears to be finally moving into production, with the tweet from Flame Toys showing off this particular image advertising that he is coming along and that with patience he will be seen soon.

Check out the new image below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

Looks neat! In one of his many examples of deliberate irony, Bob Budianski made the first Autobot with a military alt the most peace-minded Bot on the original Ark crew, and these embellishments to his G1 design ratchet up the irony another notch.

The lower legs & feet look all kinds of weird (wheels in the middle, guard rails) and looks unnecessarily limiting the articulation or stability? It's certiainly not G1 or any IRL Jeep inspired. Is it derived from any comic design?

Then it's even weirder that the toes are designed like that. A non-transforming, highly stylized and original design, but made to limit articulation (in the shot the feet can't lay flat to the ground, like, no ankle tilt)?

Oh I imagine the ankles have tilts, this is a rough look in comparison to the final product. There will be ankles, these figures have had 3 or 4 joints in the torso alone, they won't leave those out

This Rodimus figure won't be for everyone. For one, it retails for $400, and for two, it is non Transforming. But nothing stops us from checking out these pretty awesome pictures from Flame Toys. While it is the IDW Rodimus design, it uses lots of elements from other Hot Rod / Rodimus versions like the bow from Animated and the fishing pole from the G1 movie. That fishing pole is also a sword.

Here are all the details:
Retail price : US$400
Sale : around December, 2022
Size : 23 cm height
Material : ABS, PVC, POM, Diecast
Product description :
– 5 LED units. Eye, chest, 4 shoulders have light-up function!
– With outer armors to become Rodimus Prime!
– Linkage articulation gimmicks!
– Super-poseable with diecast parts for solidity and heaviness!
– You will get a powered lightning bow as bonus parts if ordering from www.d4toys.com, official shop SEN-TI-DEN, Amiami in Japan or Flame toys event.


This was revealed on the Flame Toys Facebook page.
