Brickheadz are usually all prints, I'd imagine these are too. On 3/5/2025 at 5:34 PM, imposter said: Probably a must have sets. Ransom Fern's alternate builds are excellent. Quote
imposter Posted March 14 Posted March 14 You can SUBSCRIBE Hasbro Pulse in YouTube. There are so many Transformers videos. At the moment I watch this playlist. For some reason I have a feeling that Transformers LEGO will be a big thing in the future. Quote

I'd like to finally see some sets aimed at kids. 2-in-1s or even just transforming figures with basic articulation.

When I got back into it I watched a fair bit of Comodan Cam and Transformers The Basics to get me caught up on all the different continuities the characters have been in. Quote
imposter Posted March 20 Posted March 20 QUESTIONS Is it possible to buy Transformers printed parts from LEGO? Are TF BrickHeadz LEGO exclusive sets? If yes, for how long they sell them? Is it already confirmed that we get Soundwave this year 2025? Will LEGO TF end in 2026? Quote

Not directly but you can use the website Bricklink to buy any specific parts you're looking for. They appear to be, yes Probably the standard year and a half- two years Not by lego to my knowledge but it's been reliably enough leaked that it's more or less a certainty We can only hope we'll see Rodimus Prime in 2026 to Light our Darkest Hour- I think it will continue, especially with the 40th anniversary of the movie coming up.

imposter Posted March 20 Posted March 20 Ok. Very nice answers TY. 1986 movie is the 1st TF movie. Some say it is the best easily. I agree. So 2026 may well be a year of Transformers. But there is not movie in 2026? Or tv show? I have to find out. Quote

Spooky, I just started designing a Hot Rod lego. Long way to go, and hope they do him or some other sports car Transformer. Quote
imposter Posted March 22 Posted March 22 If Transformers sell well. I have heard that Optimus Prime was success! Quote

So 2026 may well be a year of Transformers. But there is not movie in 2026? Or tv show? I have to find out. No movie in 2026... no movies for a long time, unfortunately, as the studio pulled out of financing them. Show wise there's Earthspark, which I saw bits of and really didn't like, and I think got cancelled, and the new show Cyberworld, which I haven't heard anything about but doesn't seem like a heavy enough hitter to get tie-in sets. The best chances for lego transformers in 2026 are going to be anniversary tie-ins for the 1986 movie and evergreen G1-inspired material. I'm always rooting for lego to make some sets for the Energon Universe, but you never know. 5 minutes ago, imposter said: If Transformers sell well. I have heard that Optimus Prime was success! For a 2022 set to still be availible, he must be doing incredibly well. From what I've seen it's less so with Bumblebee but as someone who owns him he's honestly just not that good of a figure. Soundwave should turn things back around. 7 hours ago, pjhinthehouse said: Spooky, I just started designing a Hot Rod lego. Long way to go, and hope they do him or some other sports car Transformer. I don't know that he'd actually get a $100+ icons level transformer- it'd be a big reach for a character that spent most of the time since his creation in a pretty controversial spot- but I think a Brickheadz 2-pack of him and Galvatron is all but guaranteed. Hopefully next year we start seeing a few transformers playsets, I really do think you could make a fairly good Optimus that transforms at a $50-60ish price point and then corresponding figures around those prices.

Mandalorianknight Posted March 23 Posted March 23 2 hours ago, imposter said: I thought TF is doing very well? Unfortunately, it's not. The most recent movie is the most critically well received and probably the best on a more objective level (even if the 1986 one will always be pure 80s and probably remains my favorite), but it didn't make enough money, and just as importantly, a lot of the tie-in toys both for that and the last live-action film ended up at bargain bins. As I said, it sounds like the most recent show, a pretty controversial one, was canceled. There was some investor meeting or something where Hasbro stated the future of the brand was in video games, but they cancelled their only big AAA release on the horizon after years of delays. Quote
imposter Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Can someone help with this. So I would like to MOC Optimus Prime. What is the best way to moc it? This video is 2 years old for example. Quote
icm Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Take a look at this. https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-198070/IBrickedItUp/cabover-semi-truck-and-optimus-prime-mech/#details Quote
imposter Posted March 23 Posted March 23 I actually just looked that on Rebrickable. There are many good ones. That version has a lot of heart in it. So many amazing options. G1 design is interesting. Quote
imposter Posted March 23 Posted March 23 This YouTube channel has some videos about TF. If I had the money in some point I will buy doubles from both of these. Quote
imposter Posted March 25 Posted March 25 Do you think it is possible to make this from LEGO? AND also open it like in the video. BASE. Quote
Mandalorianknight Posted March 25 Posted March 25 The general concept of a transforming trailer for optimus is certainly possible but this specific model, absolutely not. The Commander Class figures like this have a level of complexity that lego can't hope to match without quadrupling the size of the character. Quote
imposter Posted March 25 Posted March 25 Ok. Good to know. Tomorrow I should get OP LEGO set. I already build that trailer for it. That model in video might be too difficult anyway. Quote
BitByBrick Posted March 26 Posted March 26 While we wait for Soundwave to be released, my goal is to get lost in a project, specifically I want to finish Optimus Prime by displaying him with a decent looking G1 Trailer. Can someone please point me to anything that might help me with my quest? It doesn’t have to be transforming, but I am up to the challenge. Sorry if this is not the correct forum, but any help would be greatly appreciated. After the build, the next obstacle will be creating a decent looking logo and stripes on the trailer. Again, any ideas? For marking it on my calendar, is there any news of a specific date for the release of SW? August, maybe? As long as it is before my birthday in October, I’ll be happy. Thanks Quote

Thanks I am incredibly biased, as I myself made one a few years ago- one that I believe is untested-, but I can send you the file for mine for free if you'd like: (The logo would be achieved by putting a custom sticker or print on tile(s). At the time I used 2 2x4s as 4x4s weren't common, but nowadays they're common enough that it would work better.) I would be shocked if soundwave released later than September. IIRC Optimus and Bumblebee were both summer releases, I see no reason for them to buck the trend. Quote
CF Mitch Posted March 26 Posted March 26 I believe Soundwave should release in August, so guess you've got nothing to worry about Also, very nice trailer! Regards, Mitch Quote

Thanks I have very similar project at the moment. I just build Optimus Prime. It is the BEST set I have ever build. I want to make it even better.
