Thanks to our very own 2005 Boards member Rookbartley for sharing in our boards photographic proof of our first US sighting of the new Jada Toys RC Converting Optimus Prime.
First revealed in February this year, this is a simple Optimus Prime figure which can auto-convert into truck mode via his remote control and features lights and sound effect. It was found and purchased at a Target in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
Happy hunting!

It seems like this line is not dead because I just picked up Nano MetalFigs Wave 3 18-Pack. I guess there is still hope that the Jetfire/Hotrod/Sideswiper 3 pack comes out eventually.

Amen brother.
Yet, there are plenty of TF live-action movie MM.

Jada are slightly larger and die cast…. But I can use them on the sets and vice versa.
Mould love to see more G1 Transformers MM also. I think all we got from MM is Tracks.

Do these Jada Nano vehicles compete with Jazwares Micro Machines? Jada Nano are slightly larger in size?

I hope these are released. I need that Skyfire/Jetfire… I want that whole set. I will keep buying the G1s that Jada puts out. They are Awesome, they are perfect!
Would be cool if they made some more diorama playsets as well like Dom’s house from Fast and Furious.

is there any news on the transformers G1 nano hollywood rides wave 2 (Sideswipe, Jetfire and Hot Rod was Jazz)?
I placed my pre-order a year ago but wiki seems to indicate its never going to be released
A belgium website states Q2 2023 but im less confident… Transformers 3-Pack Nano Cars 32523

Three Primes in one go. You could say that's a Prime mover.

Not new figures but getting all 3 Primes together makes things simpler for those who collect 1/32

Has anyone heard any info on the Hot Rod/Sideswipe/Jetfire 3 pack?

This is readily available now at Target stores and Target online. I got him today and I love the figure, even bought an extended warranty on him . I would never even consider the Robosen one but at $70 this is a steal to me and a tenth of the cost of the one it's based off of.

Half surprised Hasbro hasn't given us the reissue Walmart Optimus in black yet. They went as far as to do an entire new tooling for him so it'd be nice to see them get some mileage out of it.
