An interesting little image has popped up on 4Chan. What you can see here to the left is a view of the back of a possible upcoming Kaiyado Revoltech Optimus Prime. For those unfamiliar, Revoltech as a series takes many classic robot – and other – characters, and uses a unique revolver joint system that allows for unparalleled poseability in their scale and price point. We’ve had some Dreamwave inspired Revoltechs in the past – this though would be the first foray into a different series for Revoltech. No other details known other than what you see here – but chances are, Optimus will be a part of the Sci-Fi Revoltech sub-series.
Stay tuned for more news and information.

OMG! So much want!
That Shockwave is amazing. I have all the G1 inspired Revoltech's, they display really well – I'd love more. However I'm not sure I would be into TF Movie versions
Agree that Skywarp and Thundercracker should have been a given? Surprised they didn't do a Galvatron as well.
Sigh… What could have been.
TheTFReview
wait… Revoltech WAR MACHINE! I am sold. On both prime and WM.

Give me more G1 revoltechs. Damn, with how much those things get repainted, where have all the seekers and nemesis prime revoltechs been?
Grimwing
Sounds nice. Guess this will be the first sci-fi series I'll pick up.
Would be great if he had all his weapon hands. Like the blades, Hooks and Blasters. That's more of a
Yamaguchi thing though.

Might pick this up, looks pretty interesting.

This doesn't come as too much of a surprise to me what with revoltech doing a lot of movie based figures in general, lately. Seemed like it was probably going to happen sooner or later.

Maybe a 3rd season Sari? With 2 heads, ( one normal and one with the helmet on), the jetpack, the hammer and 2 arms to swap for the energon blades? *drooling frm already thinking in it*

True, it's no guarantee but we can always hope and pray. XD I for one would love to see (and buy) a Revoltech Movie Starscream.
Oh, and here's a picture of the custom Revoltech Shockwave and Soundwave I mentioned earlier. I forget where I saw this picture (or even who these guys belong to or made them) but I did save it simply because it looked cool. If only Kaiyodo made these as official figures!
Opticron Primal
I don't think releasing the 4 most popular G1 characters in japan plus a UM repaint in the Revoltech line means they're gonna do the rest of the characters.
ZeroEdge
So how soon till we get a Revoltech Movie Bumblebee?
Deonasis
Nice prototype Revoltech, now put it back down and go back to the G1 line you started.
General Magnus
Oddly I think the other way. Dreamwave designs are overrated. "Dull surprise" anyone.
NGW
QQ more maing, QQ more.
Enigma2K2
Funny you should say that… that's the only part that interests me.
Not even Revoltech could get me to buy those movie toys.
Fort Max
Animated would suit revoltech figures down to the ground, they'd be pretty easy and cheap to make too.
Raiju
I was hoping they'd continue the G1 Revoltechs too. I remember seeing pictures of someone's custom Revoltech Shockwave and Soundwave figures online and man did those look epically cool!
There is an unofficial custom Revoltech Skywarp available on eBay; it's simply a very pricy Starscream repaint by some Chinese seller but the paint job is very top notch and professional-looking. I bought one for my fiance and she loves him since he's her favorite Transformers character.
Still a Sci-Fi line Optimus is a welcomed addition; the only bump in the road being price since that line is pretty expensive. Can't wait to see more details!
Shizuka
Give me an accurate scale The Fallen and I'll import.
