That Victory Leo and Optimus Primal look BAD-ASS!

I'll wait for the colored pictures of Rodimus and Leo Prime to but I can tell those too will look great.

To be fair this is the first we've seen of Victory Leo in a while. Just have some patience.

wow, that Primal looks so good! It lives up to my expectations from the concept art! Leo Prime is looking good too.

Excited to see Rodimus in colors, it's cool that we are getting him in both sizes.

That Victory Leo, wow. So so so good!!! Now to wait out the colored images with Star Saber, so I can decide at last whether to jump or not.

With Flame Toys, you can get a tease or reveal, and then it be months or over a year before any more news hits. We've had Victory Leo teases dating back to 2 years ago and this is our first color look. And we have a Furai Hound teased a year and a half ago or so, but still nothing past that first grayscale prototype model.

And to be very fair, that kit needs redesigned. that was a pretty bad kit

Greetings Seibertronians! Fellow Seibertron user, -WonkoTheSane-, has let us know that Flame Toys have unleashed a new of reveals following on from yesterday! These include new sketches of forthcoming products in their Kuro Kara Kuri line and a fulfilment of a promise made yesterday, full colour pictures of Kuro Kara Kuri Victory Saber!

Kuro Kara Kuri God Power Jet Armour

This appears to be an add on set for their already available Kuro Kara Kuri Optimus Prime, giving him a jet pack upgrade like that enjoyed by his live action movie counterpart in the end fight of Revenge of the Fallen.

After first being teased almost two years ago, we finally get our proper look at the Victory Combination in all its glory.

Victory Saber looks awesome.Make me wish more fiction would follow these characters
Jazz also has been drinking the Gundam juice it seems.

Day 206 of waiting for Transformers Armada Masterpiece news.

I must admit, I didn't really like Jazz when he was first revealed, But he's kinda grown on me now.
Hopefully they'll downsize it into a Furai model at some point.

I, for one, don’t mind Gundam Jazz. He looks like the Siege toy that we never got. :-(

Gosh, that Victory Saber is downright beautiful! Guess it's time to pull the trigger on Star Saber.

Also, I wonder if that jet pack from Prime is an alternate item, or if they will release Prime with the kit. Doesn't look like it forms another robot or anything. And I really want to see it in color, it is so the RotF/G1 Prime crossover figure.

I too want more info on the Rodimus Furai kit. and it's also interesting that they completely redesigned the Kura Kara Kuri, it was based on the 2009 ongoing rodimus design, and now it's the MTMTE Rodimus base design.

Jazz looks really cool. But I wonder about him, since he really seems to have a majority of Prime's legs.

Eh... I liked the butterfly wing design better. It made her stand out from other Windblade designs. And the waist area being more angular is annoying. Still gonna get this.

Hard to tell from the picture, but at least her wings are bigger.
Religious outrage aside, I think the main criticism was that Windblade looked more like a human girl wearing a costume than a transformers. If the uncanny valley is being dealt with, it's great.

Depend on how she turn out, this may be the first Flames kit I'll buy.
