The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Megazord has received a dramatic redesign courtesy of Hollywood mechanical designer Josh Nizzi. Prime 1 Studio’s enormous statue features realistic armor, intricate mechanical details, illuminated Dinozord eyes, and interchangeable parts for a Mega Dragonzord configuration. The limited Bonus Version adds oversized wings, with only 50 pieces produced.
The Dreadnoks’ taste in transportation hasn’t improved, and collectors wouldn’t want it to. Hasbro’s Classified Series Thunder Machine brings the vintage vehicle to six-inch figure scale, with modular parts that let you recreate its original look or build your own version to park alongside Cobra’s hardware.
The red-eyed Evil Bumblebee seen in the animated short Optimus Prime: Awakening is joining Transformers Studio Series. The Deluxe Class figure converts into a car in 24 steps and includes the fusion cannon wielded by Bumblebee during his decidedly unheroic turn.
Optimus Prime started the Transformers Icons line by turning into the Autobot emblem, so Megatron was the obvious next move. The 6.75-inch figure transforms into the Decepticon logo in 27 steps, giving the faction leader a display-ready alternate mode that makes far more sense than a pistol.
Hot Wheels has shrunk Bumblebee to 1:64 scale without taking away his ability to transform. The licensed Volkswagen Beetle looks charming enough, but transform it into robot mode, and the Autobot scout reveals proportions so peculiar that only G1 accuracy can explain them.
Hyrule’s legendary darkness-sealing blade has been reborn as a 27-inch electronic roleplay toy, complete with iconic music and more than 15 sounds triggered by movement and impact. It cannot defeat Ganondorf, but it can make swinging a toy sword around the living room feel considerably more heroic.
For collectors who have always wanted Optimus Prime silently judging them from across the room, McFarlane Toys now offers a 58 cm life-size replica bust with no lights, sounds, or wearable parts—just one very stern Autobot head.
Four decades after The Transformers: The Movie traumatized a generation of young fans, ThreeZero is revisiting Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, and Megatron with movie-inspired MDLX editions—none of which transform, naturally.
Hasbro’s 2018 Throne of the Primes set returns with Optimal Optimus, four Prime Masters, a hoverboard, and enough redeco history to fold back on itself.
Hasbro’s life-size Miles Morales mask borrows its look from Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 and gives its wearer remote-controlled eyes capable of squinting, blinking, winking, and reacting to imaginary danger.
The 1986 animated classic returns to theaters in 4K with a new post-credits chapter—and its latest trailer suggests Optimus Prime may not be finished yet.
