Via Weibo users TOYPLUS-玩聚物语 and 漫港湾we have a look at the test-shot of the impressive Flame Toys Tarn action figure.
This is a fully licensed non-transforming figure of the leader of the Decepticon Justice Division featured in the IDW “More Then Meets The Eye” comics. This is the second release on this line following Flame Toys Drift (you can check our complete Drift’s gallery here). This a highly detailed action figure, with an amazing range of articulation, lights and great extra accessories. You may think that Tarn was taken out from the pages of the comic. The test shots images show some comparison size shots with Drift. Tarn is definitively taller than Drift, to the point he can hold him in the air with one hand.
Tarn is due to be released on September, 2018 and you pre-order it now via our sponsors below. You can also check out the mirrored images on this news post and join to the ongoing discussion on the 2005 Boards!

Yes thanks I have given them a clean. But it’s definitely a wiring problem because the lights on his chest work fine, it’s just his eyes that don’t work but when you move his chest around the eyes flicker and occasionally light up.

Sadly I don’t have an answer for your question but have you checked that the contacts of the batteries are still conduct power?
I had a couple of instances where I had to scrap the contacts with a scalpel to get the lights to work.
Those were on new toys so the contacts could have had a layer of super glue dust from assembly on them, preventing the transmission of electricity.

Has anyone figured out how to pull the top part of Tarn apart to reach the electronics? The eyes in mine have stopped working and I’d like to try to fix it.

Hey everyone! If you ever encountered hip joint looseness, then I have an easy fix for you that doesn't involve glue! For the hips: there is a small screw right under the hip region between the legs, you screw that tighter and the hip joints will tighten as well. I hope this reaches someone who needs it!

I’m looking for the Tarn bonus parts, especially the speakers. If you or anyone you know is willing to part with it, please PM. Many thanks .

I ordered the original release version and it has sturdy joints and working lights with red eyes and and no paint chipping so maybe that really would be a better option for you.

Man I wanna order this guy but maybe I'll get megatron instead
edstuff
Yea, it's bogus

I cancelled my order for this. I can't spend that much and have issues. It's unfortunate because I was looking forward to it
edstuff
That's a shame

Do the fingers pop out easy or are they firm in place?

Thank you! She is amazing!
