Threezero is breaking ground on nontransforming TF for a third of the price. Flame Toys is overpriced and getting worse with each release.
@AnthonysCustoms3 ай бұрын
Do you own either? If so, you know The Threezero figures are good for the money but aren't even playing the same game as Flame. It's not even close. Being cheaper doesn't make something a better value.

@@AnthonysCustoms It does when they give you better engineering and great finish. And yes, I've owned both Flame Toys figures and Threezero figures and the former are getting WORSE while the latter are getting BETTER. Compare Flame Toys Drift to this lazy Jazz and tell me with a straight face it's on the same level. Look at the pictures of the Threezero MDLX Jazz compared to this. What is worth the extra cash? The little lights??

Love the design, but for $300 plus, it needs to be 12 inch at least - something like a Hot Toys. This is out of my league. Love the bright lights. I don’t mind if it can double as a lamp or flashlight 😂😂😂. It would be cool if it has Bluetooth too - Jazz… music…. As much as I like this, not paying more than $200.

I’m glad figures in this price range exist, so we can see what this medium can do when pushed to extremes; but I personally don’t have this kind of money to spend, even if it’s the best figure of a character I love.
@MisaelCastilloBrenes2 ай бұрын
I have this one and Prime. I have them because they are two of my favorite characters. I would buy a Grimlock from them if they ever release it. I wouldn't collect them all as I don't care about Tarn or Drift enough to pay that much for them. But in general, they are the best designs and engineering for action figures.

The Flame Toys stuff is so nice but so expensive... I have to be super picky. Optimus Primes and Megatrons are a big part of my collection, as are black repaints. Especially Nemesis Prime. I couldn't afford Flame Toys across the board but splurged on their Nemesis. Their Prime design in that color scheme looks AMAZING.

This line is insanely cool but the price is pretty tough to swallow. I did pick up the Shattered Glass Megatron and I love it, but for now I think I'll stick to the MDLX figures. Also I'm 100% with you on the Flame Toys stands. Seems like a minor thing but it's one of my biggest gripes (because everything else on these figures is so well done). They're so big and while they are sturdy, which you want for such heavy, expensive figures, they don't allow for the most convenient posing/displaying.

I bought the Lewin Resources 28" (Yes as big as HasLab Unicorn) Transforming Optimus Prime and he was $380.00. And it was full of diecast and the Matrix wad a solid chunk of metal. I know this is a too shelf figure but I think its time is done. When Flame Toys started this line there was no MDLX or Yolopark which as you mention might not be at this level but at the end of the day its going to sit on a sheld and in doing so astetic design aside I can't see someone guessing that this figure would be 4 times the price of the Yolopark or MDLX or more than the larger DLX. Its still sweet though.
@spartancowboyz97793 ай бұрын
I honestly think yes I am okay with a higher price point for the figure if the figure is done well. I am 100% happy with the Halo Noble team from 1000toys even though they’re smaller they are well done figures

If I'm a millionaire I wouldn't care about this price. But there's no reason for a middle class income person to pay $400 for a tiny figure when they have bills, kids, and food to pay for. It's just a hobby and pieces of plastic at the end of the day. Unless the particular piece heals your soul and completes your existence or something. That's completely subjective.

I think the MDLX line comes close enough at a 1/4 the price to be good enough for me. I can't say it isn't worth it but just like the Robinson Transforming robots I can't swing it. Also they make so few in the line that you never know how deep this collection will go.
