    I really hope we get a Studio Series of this guy at some point.

    MPM is a pipe dream but would be even better.

    Wonder how close MPM-7 Bumblebee is. I have not preordered 3A Bee but according to the size chart for MPM he's pretty darn close and wonder who he stacks with Blitzwing.

    i think optimus will come with alternate shoulders pieces as that seems to be the only major differences in the designs

    Any chance of a tease on how close we are to an announcement of the 3rd DLX figure?

    Ran across this Video on youtube about Tfcon 2019/ThreeA and noticed that there might be a Premium scale Blitzwing coming soon? Looks like the same height as TLK Optimus.

    Does anyone have any more information on this? If this is the case...it would be Awesome to get a premium scale for this guy!!

    Saw it at the 3:00 min mark.

    How he would scale with DLX scale Bumblebee, since people were talking about how the DLX scale Blitz was slightly short. Measured from the bottom of the right foot to the top of the head. He's way too big to scale with Bee, since he is premium scale after all.

    That looks right to me if you're comparing a VW beetle to a fighter jet...

    Got this screenshot from 3A responding to a question about Premium Scale for Bumblebee Bettle. Seems like 3A going to come out with that to match Blitzwing.

    Yeah it seems about right if we're going by real life vehicle size. Decepticons would be absolute giants if the franchise didn't deal with mass-shifting. In the movie, Bumblebee stood up to the bottom of Blitzwing's cockpit windshield? The DLX scale Blitz is a head and a half shorter than he's supposed to be, although it's nothing to freak over about.

    3A making this really hard for me. I'm interested in getting their TLK premium scale Optimus so I might end up collecting all the premium scales, although I don't have space or money for them. Not to mention I've already pre-ordered their second batch of DLX scale VW Bumblebee. I wonder if they're going to be to scale though, going by the pixel heights of the lines I used in the above image, 12-14 inches for a premium scale VW Bumblebee sounds about right for an 17.5 inch Blitzwing.

    Scale be damned, I just wish I could afford these figures. These designs are so badass.
