Thanks Op! Got 1
bricks
Cheers, have refrained from buying Lego for a while…but I'm in for this!
Lego G1 Grimlock next, pretty please Lego!! 🙏
megatron should be next.
soundwave with mini tapes would be nutsG1 Megatron is a gun…that seems pretty unlikely to me!
Soundwave with mini tapes would indeed be cool. I'm going to stick with G1 Grimlock for my vote though! (That was my most wanted toy I never got as a kid!)
Personally, I think Bumblebee is most likely to happen next, if anything. (Not what I want, but what I think is most likely.)
nah megatron these days is a tank (the normal transform toys)
any would be fine. just don't do a simpsons on us and stop at 2
@djones145: Right…and you think Lego is likely to make a tank? (I wouldn't bet any money on it!)
Plus, I would think it is likely they will stick to G1 models, consistent with this one.
But we'll see - I'm happy to be proven wrong. All I'm saying is that it is extremely unlikely Lego would make a gun, highly unlikely they would make a tank + unlikely they would make a non-G1 model to follow up…so I very much doubt the next model (if any) will be Megatron.
Tag me in when/if (I'm not so certain there will be another - if I was a betting man, then I would bet this will be a one-off), the next Lego Transformer model drops! :)
@caprimulgus: There are quite a few Lego Star Wars tanks… Not sure why a Transformers Megatron tank would be a step too far.
@Masakari: Realistic modern weaponry and military vehicles. It's Lego policy.
https://www.zmescience.com/other/did-you-know/lego-military-…
"In 2010, we have formalized these rules in a guideline for the use of conflict and weapons in LEGO products. The basic aim is to avoid realistic weapons and military equipment that children may recognize from hot spots around the world and to refrain from showing violent or frightening situations when communicating about LEGO products. At the same time, the purpose is for the LEGO brand not to be associated with issues that glorify conflicts and unethical or harmful behavior."
“We have a strict policy regarding military models, and therefore, we do not produce tanks, helicopters, etc. While we always support the men and women who serve their country, we prefer to keep the play experiences we provide for children in the realm of fantasy.”
@caprimulgus: guess what's ever easy to transform. not sure if griimlock would be easy. soundwave might be the easiest. the non lego form is quite easy to transform
don't really care who they make, as long as they continue to make it
@djones145: Yeah definitely - would definitely have to be something with a simple enough transformation that they can recreate it in Lego. I think Grimlock is way too complicated, so unlikely it would happen (I can dream!).
Fingers crossed they continue, cause I would buy pretty much any Lego Transformer they put out! :)
comon amazon
gave up on amazon. they just got the listing recently
Oh no just bought one from Kmart. Not even sure if they will be sending it….
got one. thanks OP
My big w order got cancelled….kmart was sold out. Got one from here I hope. Thx op.
got x1 as well, missed out on kmart
thanks! brought one full price from lego, side by side one transformed one not in the shelf will be 🔥🔥🔥
Got one thanks! I was really resisting but I have FOMO from Voltron. Treat myself to this!
Thanks OP really tried to resist but FOMO won out haha (and that I loved Optimus Prime as a kid).
I very much want this one instead: Robosen Optimus Prime.
Don't read the reviews then. The mofo breaks. Often.
ordered one cant resist… :) Hope they dont get over ordered and start refunding…
mines processed and got ausnpost notification
good luck everyone else!
let's hope their stock count is accurateJeez thats quick. And this is a Toys R us order? Mine says delivery in 4-10 days on order confirmation screen
At that price, I couldn't resist! Thanks for sharing OP!
Ordered woooo
FOMO 1
Shmahoo 0I apologise if I got the last one !!
I think you'll find shmahoo scored, in the last minute.
Please update the scoreboard.
In a stunning scoreboard reversal, it has been revealed that shmahoo did indeed score !!
haha a talented storyteller could totally make a movie out of this heartwarming tale :)
who would play you?
@andresampras: The Rock. But he'd have to buff up a bit to make his portrayal of me more "authentic"
I keep wanting to buy.. but then I remind myself how small this thing is… not worth it compared to voltron .. which is double the size
Although my math was terrible, I also know that 15 inches is not a double size of 14 inches
FMD I keep seeing these too late
FYI BigW is back in stock (for preorder) - with the Everyday Rewards Extra discount it's 206.10 shipped.

What discount?
Is it? the big w link that i can see still has it out of stock
Showing as Pre-Order with delivery end august, but no button to order it
Must have been all allocated, gotta be quick ¯_(ツ)_/¯
@KevinL: Dang, yeah think it's gone.
OzBargainers….Rolll Out.
Don’t they need to transform first?
I am holding out. The price will come under $200. The set is smaller than Voltron. But geez it is very tempting
how can you compare Optimus Prime with Voltron? o_0
Exactly. Optimus is nothing compared to Voltron.
It's now back in stock but at full price
Kmart is available again for NSW and QLD for $225
Next step upgrade some LED lights? :)

Probably this, tbh:
https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-114409/rustywd/optimus-prim…That's my plan too… Although the custom brick order works out to be ~$300 so the trailer is more expensive than Prime!
mines on board for delivery today! woo hoo
delivered, packed well in another box, had do not put stuff on top and a bit of bubble packet to stop it moving
Mine was banged up pretty bad in one of the corners. The collector in me wasn't happy but the builder in me is saying that I should open it and start building.
mine too. Yipee!
mine arrived today. I'm now considering purchasing the lighting option
Thanks OP!!
