Transformers Flame Toys Windblade Model Kit Reviews

Posted by william-james88 Jun 7, 2022 at 12:47pm CDT 25,382 views
You might have forgotten about this one but the rather controversial Flame Toys Windblade model kit has since come out and several reviewers who usually don't review Transformers toys are giving their take on it. This toy has had quite the crossover appeal since it is also a model kit and the design is more in line with a sexier design we see in different Japanese statue and toy lines aimed at older collectors. Even the face is far more stylized and doll-like than mechanical, and that goes for the rest of the model. We have two video reviews for you below. This is a hot toy (no pun intended) and it has garnered a lot of attention so if you want to be in the know, you can check the videos out below.

Both those videos were annoying!

It’s a great model kit. Get one, you won’t be unhappy with it. Just get a stand for it too as it’s not too stable.

If anyone have the Windblade kit on hand and built, I'd love to see good pictures.

I kinda regret voiding my preorder at Age 3 & Up. I found her expensive at 70$CAN plus taxes and shipping, but now she's 100$+ everywhere...

The thing I really hate when ordering anything from BBTS is that I always, ALWAYS get hit by customs and I must go far to an unusual post office to get my package. But if I buy only her and the box is small....

Can I risk it? :-?

Oh F it, I will. If I'm spared of customs, I'll be saving around 15$CAN than if I'd bought it from A3&U. If not, I'll pay 10$CAN more. Not too shabby when you think about it.

I finally bought her from BBTS and she's on her way. Fingers crossed for no custom fees.

I also found out that there's a second shipment of her coming to stores so that batch is on preorders.

I have Amazon.com

Photos are out for Arcee who looks so good that she may cause as much of a disturbance sa Windblade did for the more prudish :P Shockwaves looking great but with out blaring decepticon symbols is kind of coming off as unlicenced.

I'm honestly not impressed by that Shockwave. I've got a G1 style modern Shockwave figure, and he can transform so I'm good.

I wasn't going to get anymore Flame Toys models because I got stung by Windblade breaking immediately on me. I barely even handled her.

However... that beast wars Megatron is looking AWESOME

and I'm gonna want that Arcee too.

Godammit, they got me.

Man, Flame Toys is giving us some deep cuts with their model kits. They have a Gilthor planned. For those not in the know, this was an evil clone which combined both Optimus Prime and Megatron. That always made for a cool design and now we have our chance to get an officially licensed one (if you take the time to build it). It doesn't end there, through Facebook posts from Flame Toys themselves and images taken at the Flame Toys booth at the Animation-Comic-Game Hong Kong show, we also have our first looks at the upcoming Shockwave, BW Megatron and Arcee models. Arcee is the big ticket here since this is the model kit whos preorder starts and it is the only kit where they gave us a full reveal. Those specific product details are below along with all the images mentioned.

Arcee pre-order start !

SRP : US$55
Size : ~16cm height
Material : ABS, PVC

Product introduction :
– This is an modernized and shape optimized Arcee.
– Good articulation with over 60 movable joints, you are able to set any pose easily.
– Model kit is made of hard plastic ABS, it will be good for professional model kit users to make his own coloring Arcee.
– With different injection color of runner parts and simple assembly design, it will also be suitable for model kit beginners.

Ok, that Arcee will be preordered as soon as she becomes available, I still need to build my Windblade though

That Megatron looks AWESOME!

That Arcee is bought the second the preorder goes up! Can't wait for her to be delayed for another year because puritans complain about her! :D

That shockwave is a pass.

That Gilthor looks awesome, I don't really do model kits but I am interested in picking it up because I don't think there'll probably be any other merch of it that goes for such a deep cut! I've always loved the design and was sad there wasn't something of it.
The dynamic styling already works super well for a character from a very stylised art style for its design.

Kinda wish that one was up for preorder already but I also don't mind delays to make sure it's perfect. Selling generic-anime-girl-body Arcee first is a pretty wise choice at getting the extra funding, heh.
