We got a teaser for this not long ago, now the orders have opened for Rathalos Prime representing a crossover between Transformers and the Monster Hunter franchise. The figure itself is a heavy retool of Kingdom Airazor, perhaps the most frequently retooled figure in modern history. Alt mode is a pretty good representation of the Rathalos, probably the most iconic monster in the game. The bot mode, on the other hand, well, that's really going to depend on you. It's based on the Rathalos armor from the game with with some blue to let you know it's Optimus Prime, but the proportions are a little off thanks to Airazor's thinner frame.
Pre-orders launch today in Japan, it's unknown if it'll see release from Hasbro. The price is considerably more than most Deluxe figures at 7,150 JPY (about $50 USD) other retailers will be cheaper (under $40 before shipping). Release is expected to be in July 2025.
We now have images of all Blokees model kits from not one but two different waves, the standard Galaxy Version wave and the more premium Classic Class wave. As you'll see below, some characters do repeat like Sentinel Prime and Optimus Prime. Below are the two different classes/waves. You'll see which characters are there along with photos and a video at the end showing anyone not in the know what these kits are all about (though the video refers more to the (Galaxy Versions).

Blokees are cute, easy and affordable licensed model kits of Transformers characters, you can check out the video below if you want more info on what they are. Blokees has revealed on Twitter 3 new kits coming out in their Transformers One wave. They are Ironhide, Hound and a new troop character called Death Tracker which is based on the vehicons from Transformers Prime. We saw them in the trailers and now we know their official name. Slight spoiler, but the reason they are not "Steeve" this time around is because that name is given to someone else in the film (and no, Jack Black does not make a cameo appearance).
Here is their message:
Blokees Transformers New Reveal!
In GV05, fan-favorites Ironhide, Hound, and DeathTracker return to Cybertron for an epic adventure.
Don’t miss the new wave, launching September 20
It is fun to note that since Blokees models do not transform, using these to release characters that do not have a T Cog in the film, like Ironhide and Prowl works on a thematic level too.
Today is Hasbro Pulse Con and they're running a special giveaway for Pulse Premium members in the US and UK. Hasbro is offering prizes for several of their brands, but Transformers fans will be able take a chance on winning a HasLab Unicron, a Transformers 86 Movie script signed by the cast, a Studio Series Transformers One Deluxe Optimus Prime and a Pulse Con exclusive Legacy United Dinoking!
Excited for a chance at the long coveted Unicron or maybe a rare signed Movie script? Let us know in the Seibertron Energon Pub forums and good luck!
Are all you Transformers fans caught up on Blokees yet? Not necessarily in collecting them, but at least being aware of the growing number of releases. They are a fun and inexpensive licensed series of models that work well as figures. The second Shining Version series is out in Asia now, and can be ordered on sites like Ali Express. If you are curious about it, we have reviews for all the characters below. These are called "Shining version" due to their LED lights which will light up their eyes (and chest for certain characters). The characters in this wave are:
Substorm
G1 toy Optimus Prime
Beachcomber
Sideswipe
Soundwave
Grimlock
The next round of collector-centered pre-orders have gone live on Amazon and everywhere else in Japan. Interestingly all of them are being tagged as part of T-SPARK.
The first is the highly anticipated MPG-14 Godbomber who will be available in two different flavors. The first that we had seen previously is the retail version that will be available everywhere. The second is a special Takara Tomy Mall exclusive MPG-14S that includes everything from the retail version plus extra parts to make Godbomber and God Ginrai look like the original prototype, as well as God Ginrai's sword. That set comes in an extra large box that can also store the Super Ginrai box inside similar to the MPG-6S Kaen box that could hold all 6 Trainbots. This set will likely be available on Hasbro Pulse soon.
Next up is Karakuri Statue Optimus Prime, the self transforming statue first revealed at the beginning of the year. Not much has changed in the statue itself, but the base got an overhaul making it more ornate and adding gold for contrast to the middle rotating part.
Finally we've got the Dramatic Capture Triple Takeover set. This set puts new decos on Siege Astrotrain, Legacy Evolution Blitzwing and SS86 Starscream. Starscream includes his coronation gear, but no throne this time. Even more noticeable is Astrotrain's lack of launch pad/tender.
One of the many benefits of the 40th anniversary of the Transformers
brand is that there's bound to be something for just about anyone. For those fans who are Transformers fans as well as Hot Wheels collectors, here's the toy for you!
Fellow Seibertronian chuckdawg1999 shows off this new offering in all its die-cast glory. It's starting to pop up at retail in the U.S., so maybe you'll get lucky and find it soon. Take a look below!
How did they not think of this sooner? This Optimus Prime is a nice truck!
Yolopark is going all out on their Transformers One model kits, with 2 versions for the main characters, one for before and after they get their cog. The products are in the Previews site with official images. We also have in hand images since these kits were given as gifts during a movie preview event in Hong Kong. We can see that they are the size of deluxe Transformers figures.
TRANSFORMERS ONE AMK SERIES COGGED MODE B-127 MODEL KIT
Calling all completionists and Optimus Prime collectors. Takara will be releasing a brand new Optimus, with a unique mold. This one turns into a manju netsuke, which is an antique Japanese sculpture used as a button fastener. However, this one looks far more modern almost more akin to Tony Stark’s arc reactor.
It is a made to order item so it will be limited to how many are ordered by fans willing to pay 660000 Yen. It will be available to order in person at Transformers Expo 2024 in Tokyo from September 13th to September 29th, 2024.
Other unique products will also be made for this event including a collaboration for Transformers themed Llamas, pins, bags and jewelry. Check out all the images below.
For those unaware, a new product has been gaining in popularity among Transformers fans and they are the licensed Blokees model kits. Blokees are licensed Transformers themed model kits. The pieces are on sprue trees and must be detached and then put together to create a poseable non transforming figure. They are in blind boxes and can be purchased on Ali Express but they are also available on the Blokees site: https://blokees.com/
One of the upcoming series is Transformers One, which fits really well with this kind of toy since many characters cannot transform in the film (at least at the beginning). It was unclear who all the characters we'd be getting were, but now this image from Baidu shows us that one of them could be Hound. We can tell it's from Transformers One due to the hole in the chest, and the rest of the configuration is very much that of a Blokees toy. Still, this could be from another series or a custom. You can check out the image below. And if you don't know what Blokees are, then we have a video explaining that too.
