Megatron appears to have been caught mid-transformation. Yikes, that arm!

Unlike what you may believe, Coscto is still in the tradition of offering exclusive Transformers product in the holiday season. They just are not of the transforming variety. Previously they had Jada's RC Bumblebee and now they have a Jada three pack from Age of Extinction (how timely?). The three pack features die cast licenced car modes for Bumblebee, Corsshairs and Optimus Prime. From the image is seems Costco is going all in on these Jada toys. This three pack is 14.99 which is rather affordable for quality die cast vehicles of that size (1:32 scale).

We thank xRotorstormX for sending this our way.

By the way, I know it says 1:32, but that Optimus is in a much smaller scale than that.

Jada Toys' 2022 catalogue is out and it has plenty for Transformers fans. It has G1 inspired non transforming die cast figures and micro sized G1 alt modes, but the big star here is they will be giving us a self transforming remote control Optimus Prime. This is fun for those who wanted the Robosen one but just didn't have the dough. Of course, you get what you pay for, but it is cool to see Hasbro being looser with their definition of what they are letting license holders do, especially when they had not allowed anyone but themselves to make transforming (converting) toys.

Below you will see images for:

Transformers Nanofigs Multi-Pack including Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Cliffjumper, Sunstreaker, Prowl, Jazz, Arcee, Sideswipe, Ironhide, Wheeljack, Hot Rod, Ultra Magnus, Megatron, Soundwave, Shockwave, Starscream, Thundercracker and Skywarp.

Transformers Nano Cars 3-pack including Jetfire, Hot Rod and Sideswipe

The Nano Cars 3-pack's figures' proportions are all over the place. Jetfire's cute. Hotrod's weirdly NOT sportly and sideswipe looks the best with a "Real Car" proportion.

The RC OP is most interesting... the poor man's Robosen :lol:

At least that's actually legit: seen plenty of Transforming RC Vehicles that knock off Movie Prime and Bumblebee at mall kiosks :lol:

They match well with the Citybot Titans. But I only have Devy, Predaking & the Ark... and these minifigs don't match with any of those. However they'll look cool lined up in front (or on top) of my PC monitor though. I might get them just for that and if they can be found and are priced reasonable enough (no idea how much they'll cost).

Those cheap KO will still be on the pegs at every Dollar (now $1.50!?) stores for decades to come...

This is kind of two news pieces in one. Firstly, there are new Transformers themed toys at Walmart, in the form of the officially licensed Transformers metal minifigures from Jada. This set has 18 figures of G1 characters all made of die cast metal and they measure a little less than 2 inches in height. While these sets have an MSRP of $25 USD (like this GI Joe set here), this set was priced at only $12 USD. This is a pricing error since this same set is still on preorder at Amazon.com for the MSRP price. There is only one sighting so far, posted on the Transformers Addict Facebook page, where this was found in Texarkana, AR, so we do not know if this is the same price you'll see at your local Walmart when you find it. So, does this set interest you? And would it interest you at this price? Let us know!

missing legion class 3" tall, those were not only small but actually transform, and yes that size is perfect when you plan to collect hundreds of those, right now only 3rd parties are available

Some fans were excited to get this self transforming Optimus Prime toy for their kids when they first saw it. Well, it is now being found at Target. Fellow Seibertronian xrotrostormx found it in Michigan. There is a video of someone trying it out on youtube, which we posted below.

If you have found them, share your sightings with our community in the sightings section and on our boards in your region related thread.

I love the way it's packaged! It's hilarious! Chest puffed out, arms cocked at the sides, and the big words "TRY ME!" right there. I love it. Like he's egging you on to start a fight.

I kinda want it.

At least we don't have to worry about an app being discontinued and neutering much of the functionality of the toy.

Anyone have the link to the video? It's not showing up here for me and I couldn't find it on Youtube.

Judging from the passionate discussion over the recently seen Velocitron Black Convoy toy, it seems there are a lot of Nemesis Prime redeco fans out there. Well, Jada may have something for you. They revealed on their website, today, the upcoming Nemesis Prime scaled at 1:24, with lots of images showcasing the non transforming toy at many angles. They definitely had some fun with this photoshoot. The toy is $29.99 USD and can be ordered right now off the site.

Below is the listing info, which includes a character bio, and the images

TRANSFORMERS G1 NEMESIS PRIME, 1:24 SCALE VEHICLE

It’s the dark clone of the Autobot leader, constructed by an evil genius whose only allegiance is to himself. Designed to be the ultimate military commander and made from pure darkness, Nemesis Prime fears nothing and no one. The legendary Decepticon wears a sleek black exterior with a chrome finish, and decals to match. Our 1:24 scale Nemesis is the destructive big rig you need. The dark side is where you’ll want to be.

GENUINE: Authentically licensed product from the iconic G1 Transformers franchise
CLASSIC CAR AND FIGURE: Inspired by the protagonist Deception, Nemesis Prime
