    I'm digging how it's faithful to his Studio OX look. Galvatron looks splendid! That Rodimus doesn't miss either and yeah, these guys can fit well with the Haslabs Unicron tbh considering it looks like his Studio OX design with all those mech gribblies.

    Still, where's the Machine Robo Action Toys line?

    OX Studio designs are THA BEST!!!

    If Galvatron weren\'t 600$ I\'d buy him in a flash.

    Gorgeous!

    I think these are amazing. I'd absolutely buy them if they weren't cost prohibitive, but I know they're gonna be ridiculously expensive, so sadly, I'll just have to make due with my old 1997 Japan Botcon Galvatron.

    This is what happens.

    Here's the Facebook post of it: Log into Facebook

    DeepLTranslate would be needed and here's the translation if Google Translate ain't cutting it:

    'Due to the seriousness of the epidemic, Ngau Tau Kok Market will be closed until further notice.

    Shun Wo Mongkok will remain open as usual, thank you.

    Yours sincerely,

    Action Toys'

    They started off as unlicensed 3rd party. Now they are licensed 3rd party.

    There, simple and no confusion.


    (And for the record, licensing has nothing to do with what's 3rd party. The term "3rd party" literally just means anyone outside the two main parties in a given interaction. In this case, Hastak being the 1st party and the consumer being the 2nd party. Anyone else is a 3rd party. It's the same principle as 1st person, 2nd person, and 3rd person points of view.)

    I'm glad to see these are going up for order. The size is good and price is about what we expected.

    Does that price say $1580 HK, meaning just over $200 US?

    The apparent prices are interesting seeing as how prior Ultimetal releases were like 1k USD. I thought I might be in for Rodimus from the initial reveals, but these new pictures don't really sell him for me. Also it's one of those things that just doesn't gel with anything else on my shelves, which makes it a harder purchase. OX Galvy is just a little too doofy for me.

    these seem to be under a subline called ULTIMETAL-S which I would assume the 'S' would stand for small considering they're 30cm compared to the 44cm that Optimus and Megatron are.

    Good catch. I totally read it as "ultimetals" even though the that's clearly not the intended way now that I look again. Not that I'm complaining though, the price point is much more attractive and so is the size tbh.

    Galvatron is looking especially gorgeous. I think I'll be picking up him and Rodimus. : O

    Rodimus is gorgeous in the Studio Ox design. Galvatron is cool too. I might need these.
