I got all the K3 releases. I was about to be all in on this guy. But I checked his dimensions. Just not worth it for a tiny figure.

 

Got an email from D4 Toys that my Primal shipped.

 

Pardon my ignorance but, what is the significance of the Demon/Oni/Monster face? It is from an episode of BW?

 

That, my man, is called a mutant head. It was a play feature on the early waves of Beast Wars figures.

 

I absolutely love Primal, but for my money the best renditions are the official MP and Skateboard Gorilla from Transart.   I love the Flame Toys designs in general, but we'll see if this version goes on sale. I'd buy it for $120 for a 6.5 inch figure, but not $200.

 

Oh wow. That's pretty cool.

 

Love it. It\'s insane.  It\'s like a Leo Gaogaigar

 

He looks sick! Got mine ordered already and can’t wait!

 

Now imagine if these could transform.

 

There’s a similar figure to that one, that can transform.

Have it, well gt-10 not gt-10a (don't like white verison)

... I'm just saying I want flame toys to make an actual transforming transformer and not a monoformers (transformers that don't transform). If your going to make a monoformers there are a ton in the idw comics they can choose from. Monoformers like krok need loving too. Let not be shapist now flame toys.

 

They can't. Hasbro licenses out Transformers to other companies on th3 condition that their figures don't transform.

Got mine in hand. He's really nice looking.

 

Besides the paint quality, how is he different from a 3K figure?

 

So as someone new to flame toys existence, can anymore tell me the difference of the $30 flame toys transformers model kits I see at hobby stores. Vs these newer ones like tarn, bomber Megatron, Optimus Primal that are over hundred dollars? Are they a lot bigger or because they are newer they are more expensive? Is it the kuro Kara Kuri part which is what a designer so the pay different is in like the "brand name".

 

You build one, and the other is like any other transformer meaning it comes in one piece with extra parts. That could be why it’s more expensive.

 

The $30 ones you're referring to are actual model kits you build yourself. The ones you mentioned in your list (Tarn, Bomber Megatron, and Optimus Primal) are not model kits. Those range from pre-assembled medium-quality action figures (think model kit quality but already built and with better paint apps) to high-quality premium action figures. Optimus Primal is a Furai Action figure so it's a pre-assembled medium-quality action figure. Tarn and Bomber Megatron are both Kuro Kara Kuri figures meaning they are the more expensive premium quality figures that come with a range of accessories. On the other hand, the actual model kits are referred to as Furai Model kits.

I personally don't like the names and I think they're confusing, but it is what it is.

 

Thank you so very much! This was a perfect answer!

 

This! All of this!
