It's been a few weeks since we
last reported on producer of licensed Transformers statues, Imaginarium Art, and in the intervening time they certainly haven't slowed down at all! Since our previous report on January 10th we've seen quite a few reveals, teases and sample images via
Imaginarium's Facebook page. The main focus is on their upcoming Nemesis Prime statue with multiple promotional images materializing on various dates, but there are plenty of other characters and statues coming down the pipeline that bear reporting too.
First up are a few renders of the work-in-progress Ironhide statue. A head-and-shoulders shot released on January 11th, followed by angled shots of the full (not yet posed) statue on the 23rd, show Ironhide to be as heavily detailed as Imaginarium's other works, though the renders are still currently in grayscale. It also appears the red veteran will be wielding a few heavy armaments to boot.
On the 16th, 18th, 22nd and 29th, in-person size comparison images were released featuring their upcoming Optimus Prime, Ultra Magnus, Rodimus Prime and Nemesis Prime statues next to actual humans to demonstrate their size (yes, they're big).
A new work-in-progress render of their Jazz statue,
previously revealed back in November 2017, rocked up on January the 26th. It looks to have been slightly simplified since its initial renders, boasting perhaps a little less mechanical detailing than what we'd seen before (Imaginarium is no stranger to tweaking their designs as they work on them after all).
A new, smaller Optimus Prime statue was shown off on the 30th, which also seemed to indicate the debut of a new sub-line of sorts: The Legacy of Cybertron. Featuring an entirely different pose from their larger Optimus Prime statue and even from the heavily-featured Nemesis Prime, it would appear that Imaginarium certainly aren't lazy even when working on multiple statues of the same character.
Finally, it seems the
previously-teased Quintesson statue is also progressing, with further teases featuring art of the iconic "Judgement" and "War" faces released over the past forty-eight hours or so. Presumably the trend will continue over the next few days as well, with images of the remaining three "Wrath", "Wisdom" and "Death" faces still to come.
While you digest all of that information, take a look at all of the images in question below, or over on Imaginarium's
Facebook page. Once you've done that, why not share and discuss any thoughts you have, over in the Energon Pub Forums - we'd love to hear them. And of course, keep an eye out for any more Transformers news coming your way on Seibertron.com - same (or different) 'bot time, same 'bot channel!
