It's really not, though. Armada's "planet" mode is nowhere close to this, and the arms look to have a movie accurate transformation.

and half or less for the KO from China seems much more reasonable, fantard.

Really these should have been a large action figure and a planet mode ball as a set for $100. At this size it's going to be a bitch to transform, let alone handle to transform. The only way it won't be a huge pain in the ass is if it's super simplified(as a lot of these big TFs tend to be) and only the typical retards that defend this shit company will justify this price regardless.

This pretty much confirms what we've been theorizing for awhile
Wfc 1 is cybertronian season 1 guys (mostly) 2 is likely to be more beastformers, headmasters, etc like season 4 and 3 will most likely be the rest of the movie crew, galvy, cyclonus, sweeps, wheelie, blurr, arcee, rodimus, and maybe a few other stragglers

I think the most expensive and largest 3P toy at the moment is LEwin Recourses Optimus Prime, a KO of MP-10 which is 27 inches tall and $300-$370 with free shipping. runner up is FansToys Omega Supreme which is about 24 inches and $340.

It doesn't come out until 2021 at the least so thats probably not been finalised yet. Also I'm pretty sure they don't ship to the UK yet unless you're using proxy or getting a friend in America to order on your behalf? But I could be wrong.

20lbs or 9kg for Unicron alone, so add a few ounces or grams for the box and inserts.

Yeah, people seem to forget the weight
It's more than twice as heavy as ft Max.
Which means if it was a mass release, and somewhat simplified (no moving teeth, etc) it'd still run 400.

But if they need to hit a little over 1k a week. That's hard. They'll probably get 3k this week, and 500 every week after.

That would be the most useless piece of plastic. You can have detailed figurine on a much smaller scaler that are detailed as fuck, if you go this way.

There's no way this will have diecast. It's almost 3 feet tall and has to content with all the panel folds needed to turn into a ball. They need to keep the weight down as much as possible because if you're going to transform something, you need to be able to pick it up and move it, and adding weight for the sake of HEFT is only going to make that harder. Plus the diecast would just add to the paint and materials costs since the metal parts will need to be molded separately and have far different tolerances than plastic. Couple that with the outrageous shipping costs this thing will need already and only absolutely braindead Chinese retards would add diecast to this, let alone want it in the first place.
