Toy Fair Season is just around the corner and we have started to receive information from exhibitors regarding what they will bring onto the show floor for the year 2018.
Hong Kong Toys And Games Fair 2018 is the first fair to bring us our first look at the new toys. During the 2017 edition of the fair, we received our first look at Movie Masterpiece Bumblebee and Shadow Spark Optimus Prime from Transformers: The Last Knight.
Simba Dickie was previously known to bring Bumblebee: The Movie die-cast vehicles and RC cars to Hong Kong Toys And Games Fair. But, we learned yesterday that the toys will be showcased at this year’s Nuremberg (Germany) Toy Fair instead. However, the aforementioned toys will be on display at the Simba Toys Kowloon, Hong Kong City Office. We reached out to the company for further information and are yet to hear back from them.
Additionally, we are yet to hear from Hasbro regarding their participation as well. Since China is a huge market for the company, it is likely that we’ll see something from them. By the time this post went live, the company is not yet listed as a registered exhibitor for the show. We will update you with any new development.
Update: Hasbro will be hosting a special press conference tomorrow (01/09/2018) for the global reveal of MPM05 Barricade and MPM06.
Soap Studio will also be returning this year to the expo at booth 1D-E16, ED-TSO with their 4″ Megatron and Optimus Prime. More information regarding the toys can be found after the jump.
Hong Kong Toys And Games Fair is one of the few fairs that will allow photography of the toys prior to New York Toy Fair and therefore we may see new Transformers toys tomorrow; on January 8th. The show will continue until January 11th at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Center.

Easy chset fix. You need 1 hole part, and one peg part (each side), and glue. On the last picture there are 2 MPM Ironhides: left side modification made on the windshield to remove them from the arms, and the 2 extra parts for the chest, on Right side MPM + DNA kitView attachment 30271286 View attachment 30271287 View attachment 30271288 View attachment 30271289 View attachment 30271290 View attachment 30271291 View attachment 30271292 View attachment 30271293 View attachment 30271295

Yup, forgot to mention that earlier thank you. Since there are 2 on each side. 1 on left is broken but the other one (on left) is intact so it still tabs in perfectly.

Any tabs broken anywhere? The transparent parts have a tendency to do that.

Selling this figure along with the upgrade kit if anyone is interested. View attachment 30218442 View attachment 30218443
MacrossA
Yes, I do
Dexatronic
Do you still have the 3D printed one?
Also have to post this as I might never get the front grill this good again. Finally figured out the peg on the left side of the windshield was too big for the hole. "That's what she said!"

On eBay when the DNA one was out of production. But, you can get the DNA kit on BBTS.
the 3D printed one was $50 and the DNA was like $35..
If you want it printed one, I'll sell you mine. But you'll need to wait 3 weeks, I'm out of town
Dexatronic
where'd you get that from? the 3D printed one that is?
MacrossA
Yup.
I also have the 3D printed upgrade kit, it's also decent. Maybe sturdier

Or did he fall in the toilet?

I just got the DNA design upgrade kit from BBTS and it fixes most all of the issues.

Bloody hell, you lucky dudes. The pins connecting Ironhide's arms(the whole of them, including the cat front parts) are floppy as shit, and they keep falling off… Any way to fix this issue?
Also I lost a fricking pin, so the connection's even shittier…

The lesson I’ve learned over the past year is to always preorder DNA Design kits if you’re even remotely interested. Worst case you can resell for the same or more than you paid, and they’re almost always worth the money.

Everybody here should get the black mamba version of Ironhide. The kit is a fix but the figure is still a polished turd after. BM version fixes most key issues:
1. Feet toes and kibble fold away for car mode
2. Chest hood halves lock in completely so you can move the arms without the entire figure exploding
3. Roof and wind shield kibble moved to the proper shoulder kibble area from the tricep area and on a ball joint to allow posing it and not hinder arms. Also this makes Transformation infinitely easier.
4. Cannons with light up features

I can't say I blame you one bit. I missed out on the first release and could not find it ANYWHERE online for about a year. When I saw those preorders up, I pounced upon them like a rabid dog. Haha

Back in February when they put both the SS and MPM kits. If this was anything else I would be fine waiting but this kit is pretty much necessary for Ironhide.
Robyn The Dragon
Okay I see! I have had my DNA kit for some time now. I got mine from TCP and it was shipped right on the estimated date they gave. I believe I had to pay $7 shipping for that order, but to me: it was worth it since I really wanted the kits.
I hope you guys get yours soon if you have been waiting that long.
I really only order from BBTS if I absolutely have to now and if I'm okay with waiting. They have great customer service and prices are normally fair…but most of the time I can find the item elsewhere for faster and sometimes cheaper. But I guess that's just how it is. Lol

I ordered way back in February.
