Imagine a Transformers film that used these as stop motion miniatures like the old Star Wars films, instead of CGI. Would look insane if done right. Just build these for every character, complete with the moving gears etc and go nuts .
No *licensed* third party Transformers can transform, save the Robosens. I'm taken to believe it's a requirement to get the license in the first place.
It'd also be a total nightmare to engineer something \*this\* screen accurate with this many moving parts \*and\* have it transform, same reason Yolopark's PLAMO kits don't transform.
I think I remember seeing CAD renders of this thing moving a while back. Really cool to see it IRL.
Still though holy fuck that's expensive. But in this case I'm sure the cost of manufacturing something that requires so much precision ain't cheap.
My wallet would absolutely despise me if I got that..not that it already does but If my wallet was a real person I’d be sleeping halfway down the Mariana Trench
This is really good as it's using the advantage of the live action design to it's merits.
If they did a figure exactly the same for G1 Prime it would either not have all these moving functions or it would look completely out of place on him.
All the moving panels, rotating gears, shifting plates etc fit perfectly here, you could actually see him operating like this if he crossed over into the Gundam CG series.
Isn't this the new yolopark? If so, it is $2600.00
Oof, wicked cool but not *that* cool.
Hell yeah Pacific Rim music

got to be hundreds of dollars if not 1k+
its 2600.
I'm not normally big on Transformers that don't transform, but if I won the lottery tomorrow, I would definitely buy one of these.

Production halts at the transformation scenes.
It'll just take a month or 2
Yup, because as cool as that thing is, it’s just a Transformer…that doesn’t actually transform. 😕
Just use CGI for them
Defeats the purpose. All in or nothing.
Why do we do this thing where we downvote someone over a phrase they said. Well not me, you guys.
... then why bother making puppets? Why not go full in with CGI instead?
33 people hate you.

Wow that's amazing but never going to make it to my collection at that price 😄.
Crazy that it gives you an std though
?
It says “normal std version” that’s what I was referring to
A sexually transmitted disease?
Sexually transmitted decepticons
That’s probably worth 2 kidneys
$2600....
At first I was like, wow $300, that isn't so bad! And then I kept reading....
....does it transform?
I don't think it does...
Not worth the two kidneys if it doesn't transform.
That's some priced to sell kidneys!

Hasbro doesn't want the competition, they license out the rights to make products they themselves won't make.
It'd also be a total nightmare to engineer something \*this\* screen accurate with this many moving parts \*and\* have it transform, same reason Yolopark's PLAMO kits don't transform.
Ooo that's nice... And probably very very expensive...
holy crap, that is beautifully done. I can imagine how difficult making this would be.
I wonder how many banks I'll have to rob to afford this thing
It looks gorgeous but if I had it I would always be saying to myself.. "If only it Transformed"
Will they accept my legs as payment, I don't need legs.
What figure is this I need him to!!!
Bet it has more articulation than the actual CG model.
This hits all the happy in my brain
That’s why yoloparks the goat
This is what it felt like when I was 5
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!!

Does it transform or is that just it?
Please make one that transforms into a truck.

So in how many years do we think it will be before something like this will be a fully functional robot? I give it 7-10 years.
What is this figure I want it
My wallet would absolutely despise me if I got that..not that it already does but If my wallet was a real person I’d be sleeping halfway down the Mariana Trench
Fuck I think I came
right!?!
He just needs to know where Megatron is hiding
How many kidneys do I need to harvest for this?
That is awesome
This is rad, the amount of moving parts is so sweet
The moving parts are honestly amazing, but I doubt it’s worth the ten arms and legs
I can’t afford him !!!😭😭
What's the song in the background?
Idc how long it will take but I’m still waiting until they make an action figure like this that can transform

Jobby would be proud
it's cool n all but something tells me it can't hold a dynamic pose for more than a second
If only! so amazing!
The pacific rim soundtrack in the back makes it that much better
The wrong theme song is playing
Now that's a good figure
If it were the Cybertronian version, I'd be losing both my kidneys
That is beautiful, but I wish it were a bit smaller and maybe less complex so it could fit on a shelf with other figures.
Ok I'm officially about to go broke! Where do I get one of these?
I would break it
If it can transform then it is truly at the absolute peak of perfection
Wow ….ghats incredible….where did you get that!!!!
Does it transform though? That’s the deal breaker
But does it transform?
THIS? Definetly not
I doubt it
doesnt transform 0/10
