    Umm so someone's making an oversized Black Apple Optimus. I'm not too sure, but I think someone mentioned that it's from Blue Circus.
    Estimated to be around 50cm

    Whoa. Very curious if this is going a high end paint route or an inexpensive KO route.

    Also, how is 50 cm 3A scale? I thought 3A's figures were around 30 cm? Isn't this more like the Lewin scale?

    I'm honestly not sure if a complex figure like this would work well at this scale. The joints would need to be tougher if you want to hold a pose since there's more plastic making it heavier. Could be a pain to mess with.

    Think more their TLK Megatron scale.
    For comparison, that's TLK Leader Megs next to it.

    yeah, i feel like we're gonna see a decent amount of sheared plastic on this guy unless they get everything (materials, tolerances and measurements for pins/screws at least) just right.

    I think you're thinking of their DLX line. Their premium line is bigger
