Threezero have shared a full gallery for the upcoming MDLX Optimus Prime figure. Optimus will come in at 7 inches tall, have 48 points of articulation and feature die-cast. Combined with Threezero’s great paint application and a nice selection of accessories, this should allow folks to jump into these great figures a bit easier than their Premium and DLX offerings.
Read on to check the pics and full product details. Pre-Orders will go live on Friday the 15th at ThreezeroHK.com and select Threezero stockists.
Transformers – MDLX Optimus Prime
threezero is pleased to add to our new MDLX series with the second figure in our exciting Transformers line-up, MDLX Optimus Prime!
MDLX is a new series of articulated figures capturing the spirit of threezero’s renown DLX series at a smaller scale with a similar high range of articulation and great durability resulting in a groundbreaking affordable price.
The Transformers MDLX line of figures are based on the original 1980s The Transformers cartoon and toy line, as redesigned by threezero Art Director Kelvin Sau. The iconic designs have been remixed to incorporate threezero’s hyper-detailed mechanical aesthetic, offering a familiar and exciting new presentation. Transformers MDLX figures feature threezero’s unique die-cast zinc alloy and engineer-grade plastic frame system, which retains the tactile playability and durability of the figure. Each figure is finished off with the detailed craftsmanship and weathered paint application that threezero is known for, bringing beloved Transformers characters to a new format for all to enjoy.
Transformers – MDLX Optimus Prime is approximately 7” (178 mm) tall, with approximately 48 points of articulation and a die-cast metal frame. Accessories include Ion Blaster, Energon Axe, Autobot Matrix of Leadership, and five pairs of interchangeable hands.

It looks good and makes for an expensive impulse buy but give me something other than G1.
Fire convoy, movie stuff, ect.

Well this just became at instant buy. Hopefully we get a decent amount of characters. I'd kill for a Grimlock in this line. I'm with the people who just want more than the same 4 characters and then the line is over; such a waste everytime to me.

Definitely not mad at the 80$ price point.

For me personally, I find the DLX is too pricey, so these smaller, more affordable is perfect for me.
iOnlyEatEnergon
I mean $140 for 2 diecast super articulated figures kind of falls into the "eh who cares" territory.
Impreziv
Already own a bunch of DLX's. Unsure if this line is worthwhile. But the price on prime is a bit hard not to…. what to do???

MDLX Optimus Prime and Bumblebee available for pre-order on BigBadToyStore.com
Inner-Demon
Roughly. This Optimus is seven inches tall, so it’s not that big (that’s what she said). And Bumblebee is five inches tall.

Hold up, so these are CHUG scale?

You pay right away.
Wh33ls
Does the threezero store need you to pay for the preorders right away or when it's available?
I ask, since I'm waiting for BBTS to put up their preorder for prime, since I have BB preordered already at BBTS.

Wow, I was expecting closer to $100. For a die-cast figure of that size with that much articulation and accessories, $80 is honestly a bargain.
Spark Extractor
Wow! Great price!
iOnlyEatEnergon
Optimus up for pre-order for only $80. Bumblebee also still up for $60.

Just pre-ordered Optimus Prime. Under $100. ThreeZero is doing the best work with Transformers and I am thrilled with the prices.
Liege Prime
Obviously this is a new line, but thanks to the couple DLX figures I have, I trust these figures will be excellent and worth the money. Seriously, I have no idea how Hot Toys can get away with charging $250+ for their most basic figures now while we can get DLX figures for around 200. Maybe it's the cost of the actors likeness. Anyways, if these keep under the $100 range, I'm all in.
THE-TRANSFORMER
It's generally series.
There's been issues in the past where companies have had licensing for movie and couldn't do G1, or had G1 and couldn't do Beast Wars.
Haven't seen that happen for a while now so I think that Hasbro probably prompts licensees "hey, we have a range of TF series, you probably want to license them all"…
THE-TRANSFORMER
Well, I wouldn't put Megatron or Hotrod outside the scope of heavy rotation characters… However the tag line of "MANY more" figures coming soon does have me excited and curious.
They probably saw what was happening at Super 7 and thought they could get in at that ultimates price point.
iOnlyEatEnergon
Optimus and Bumblebee. These two will look great together.
