Hasbro and licensee 3A proudly present the first release in the epic Transformers Generation One (TFG1) Premium Scale Collectible Series: the heroic Leader of the Autobots, OPTIMUS PRIME! Taking direct inspiration from the 1980s toy and animated series character model, Ashley Wood and the development team at ThreeA have taken a remixed approach that blends their uniquely stylized aesthetics while retaining Optimus Prime’s original iconic look.

The Classic Edition features a hefty 30% die-cast body, heavily weathered metallic paint, LED illuminated detailing, and an incredible range of articulation – including opening Matrix Chamber. The tankards and wheel wells are removable for a more streamlined animation style appearance. TFG1 Optimus Prime figure comes complete with interchangeable Energon Axe and his iconic Blaster Rifle.

From some angles his chest looks like a crushed soda can. Dunno where they got the idea for that weirdly angled breast-section if their motivation was cartoon accuracy... I think the proportions on MP-10 are more aesthetically pleasing than this heap. & for the sake of completeness, I'll add the usual critique, namely: if it doesn't transform, it's not a Transformer.

Doesn't articulation make it not a statue? The chest looks very War For/Fall of Cybertron style, not G1.
I really like the idea of non-transforming, highly show/comic/game accurate, highly detailed, properly accessorized, highly articulate/pose-able figures (for either robot or alt-mode, or both), but I don't see them taking off.

If you call it a "statue," you can charge more for it.

I've watched a couple of reviews on this now, and one thing keeps coming to mind... why would one buy this over MP-10?
One might think it comparing apples and oranges, but with that insanely high an asking price, you've really got to stand out as a G1 Prime, so MP-10 is what I'm going with. It doesn't transform, it doesn't seem particularly better articulated, it doesn't have any worthwhile gimmicks, it's certainly not cheaper, it doesn't even seem to scale better with anything, it goes for a stylisation over accuracy which is just off enough to not be interesting or different in any significant way... correct me if I'm wrong, but it just seems to hold no worthwhile advantages. Even if you wanted a Prime that's REALLY big, MP-01 seems to do that better too.
It looks cool, but compared to other figures and especially at that price I just don't understand why you'd buy this thing unless you're a huge Optimus collector

They splashed onto the scene with Generation 1 redesign of Optimus Prime, but 3A have also been working on the movieverse, with Dark of the Moon, Age of Extinction and The Last Knight - and now, from San Diego Comic Con 2017, we have a return to their G1 line with two inevitable repaints of the first mold: Ultra Magnus (White Optimus) and Nemesis Prime (black redeco)!
We mentioned these here, and you can see more images here, but check out initial images below from their own Instagram account, and wait for more close-ups as site owner Seibertron heads to their booth over the weekend.

It's a nice piece and all, but I thought they had finally moved away from the "White Wash" Prime as Ultra Magnus look.

While many of us collect, well, transformable Transformers, there are those who enjoy higher-end collectibles that are meant more for display than anything else, and which sacrifice the ability to transform in order to have greater articulation and poseability, as well as features that many Transformers figures don't have at any price point. For those who collect figures like that, and those who just appreciate an awesome looking figure, we have some news for you! Coming to us from 3A Collectibles is their version of Ultra Magnus, a fully-licensed version of the Autobot City Commander using the mold for their Optimus Prime figure, done up in the colors of the original Ultra Magnus' inner robot. This item is ThinkGeek's exclusive, and limited to just 500 pieces. Check out the pictures and desciption below, as well as the video showcasing just how big this figure is, and let us know what you think of the figure. Will it find a place in your collection?









MORE THAN JUST A SOLDIER
Magnus will never admit it, but he is a strong and dependable ally. He has garnered respect on both sides of the battlefield and is truly a force to be reckoned with all the while believing he is nothing but a simple soldier. That being said, he does recognize he's an above average fighter and is more than willing to throw himself at multiple enemies. He's the Autobot that can be blown up and keep on trucking. Literally. Because he's a truck.
Take home one of the Autobots' most courageous fighters, Ultra Magnus. He is fully poseable with almost 60 points of articulation and comes with LED illuminating features. He stands 16" tall and can be equipped with his trusty double-bladed axe or plasma cannon. As much of an asset as he is on the battlefield, we know he'll be appreciated on your bookshelf, as well.
Product Specifications
Transformers G1 Ultra Magnus - Exclusive
Officially-licensed Transformers collectible

Edition Size: 500
Posable figure of Ultra Magnus

30% diecast metal detailing

It would be nice if when they redid a Prime into Magnus, they at least changed the gun to Magnus's gun.
