Take a look at this new figure below:
This isn't the first time that Star Saber has donned a Decepticon symbol and a new sinister paint job, his Robot masters release also recieved a similar redeco (along with Victory Leo) so that he could infiltrate the Decepticons in the accompanying fiction.
No release dates have been put forward, and neither has a price, but we'll keep you informed on any as they are given.

Give them chance... If that isn't a future limited edition kit, I'd be suprised.
@Burn, can't you get these in Australia?

For the price, it must also be relatively big. 10" tall like a leader class figure?
Posted by ZeroWolf on July 11th, 2020 @ 6:47am CDT
As for size, if I recall correctly from past displays, he is a big boy

Kuro Kara Kuri IDW Rodimus
Kuro Kara Kuri Victory Leo
Flame Toys are teasing that they'll release pictures of the finalised coloured Victory Leo combined, with their previously released Star Saber, soon.
Furai Action Optimus Primal
Primal will be the first to represent Beast Wars in Flame Toys Furai Action range. According to their tweets, releases will feature die-cast, high articulation and be fully painted non-transforming figures.
According to a tweet by famed animation studio Trigger, Primal was designed by Satoshi
Amemiya, one of the staff at Trigger.
Furai Action Leo Prime
Leo Prime is to be the second release of the Furai Action line, and Studio Trigger have revealed he was designed by their staff member, Masaru
Sakamoto.

I'll wait for the colored pictures of Rodimus and Leo Prime to but I can tell those too will look great.

To be fair this is the first we've seen of Victory Leo in a while. Just have some patience.

These are all figures, she's a model, they haven't shown any new ones of those off yet.

Excited to see Rodimus in colors, it's cool that we are getting him in both sizes.
That Victory Leo, wow. So so so good!!! Now to wait out the colored images with Star Saber, so I can decide at last whether to jump or not.

With Flame Toys, you can get a tease or reveal, and then it be months or over a year before any more news hits. We've had Victory Leo teases dating back to 2 years ago and this is our first color look. And we have a Furai Hound teased a year and a half ago or so, but still nothing past that first grayscale prototype model.
And to be very fair, that kit needs redesigned. that was a pretty bad kit

Kuro Kara Kuri Jazz
Kuro Kara Kuri God Power Jet Armour
This appears to be an add on set for their already available Kuro Kara Kuri Optimus Prime, giving him a jet pack upgrade like that enjoyed by his live action movie counterpart in the end fight of Revenge of the Fallen.
Kuro Kara Kuri Victory Saber
After first being teased almost two years ago, we finally get our proper look at the Victory Combination in all its glory.

Jazz also has been drinking the Gundam juice it seems.
Day 206 of waiting for Transformers Armada Masterpiece news.
Posted by -WonkoTheSane- on July 24th, 2020 @ 3:40pm CDT
Hopefully they'll downsize it into a Furai model at some point.

I, for one, don’t mind Gundam Jazz. He looks like the Siege toy that we never got.
Posted by D-Maximal_Primal on July 24th, 2020 @ 8:21pm CDT
Also, I wonder if that jet pack from Prime is an alternate item, or if they will release Prime with the kit. Doesn't look like it forms another robot or anything. And I really want to see it in color, it is so the RotF/G1 Prime crossover figure.
I too want more info on the Rodimus Furai kit. and it's also interesting that they completely redesigned the Kura Kara Kuri, it was based on the 2009 ongoing rodimus design, and now it's the MTMTE Rodimus base design.
Jazz looks really cool. But I wonder about him, since he really seems to have a majority of Prime's legs.

Eh... I liked the butterfly wing design better. It made her stand out from other Windblade designs. And the waist area being more angular is annoying. Still gonna get this.
Posted by -Kanrabat- on July 29th, 2020 @ 4:09am CDT
Religious outrage aside, I think the main criticism was that Windblade looked more like a human girl wearing a costume than a transformers. If the uncanny valley is being dealt with, it's great.
Depend on how she turn out, this may be the first Flames kit I'll buy.

If the puritains celebrate, then I'm glad. Maybe, just maybe they will now shut up.
But I don't get my hopes up. They will STILL have something to whine about.
...Well, same thing with the standard fan I guess!
One thing I REALLY love about the whiny virtue-signaling outrage mobs. Thanks to them, I discovered so many cool and fun things that I would never have known existed if they'd just kept their mouth shut. So again, thank you for your hard work as free advertisers, dear Outraged Puritains!
(Kinda remind me of the Karen meme, which was something totally obscure until some Twitter puritan "influencer" took notice loudly.)

Hasbro could have easily asked for that change wanting her to resemble her evergreen self for brand recognition. In fact despite the outrage over the outage, I think Hasbro was more the driving force behind changes.

Will be nice to see the model over the picture, only kit I havent liked so far is the Primal but Windblade is looking too close to a generations figure at the mo for me to be interested in it -I'd rather hunt down a hasbro TR Windblade.
Posted by AcademyofDrX on July 29th, 2020 @ 10:22am CDT
I don't think the redesign goes too far enough, but I'm now leaning toward getting it, though I'll wait for the final physical design to commit. I haven't liked how FT has managed their self-inflicted controversy but I'm not personally at the point where I'm going to drop their products.

AcademyofDrX wrote:Furai Windblade isn't sexy enough so you'd rather pay $50 extra for the blocky Titans Return figure?? I mean, do what makes you happy, but I don't get your reasoning. The T30 Generations figure is more stylized and cheaper.
I'm not bothered about Arcee being sexy, she's a bot, I'd just like it to have a little bit of flair and style. The new design does look an improvemnt over it looking too human. The old wings were better and this version doesnt seem to have any stylising that ties in with the other kits until the physical product is shown. I prefer jet vehicles to have working cockpits so TR over the generations figure even if it's going to be pricier.

I just think it was badly sculpted there. I get the effect they were going for, but the effect was weird.

As a lone figure, it was absolutely fantastic. But as Windblade, it didn't work.
