Finally!!! The official word on the first Hot Wheels X Transformers release comes from Mattel Creations! According to their release calendar, we will be a Mattel Collectors exclusive Hot Wheels X Transformers Optimus Prime on that goes on sale at 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET Tuesday, May 21, 2024.
We don't have any images or descriptions, but they do indicate a price range as "$$$", which suggests this will have a higher price. That said, I have to guess this is either a larger scale item or a play set of some kind. Maybe they will answer my prayers, and make the TF6 Concept Optimus Prime alternate mode? Hot Wheels are known for their Exotic designs, so I can only hope this will be something new and different.
I was interested until I saw the $80 price tag. There is no legitimate reason for it to be so expensive. Pure price gouging!
Wow another G1 optimus prime nobody wants and with an $80 price tag to boot.
That Optimus, is a literal dream come true... but that price tag is most certainly not.
Never thought I would ever say this, but the Bumblebee actually looks pretty good. As a Transformer and Hot wheel fan, this is actually pretty exciting... but then again, it doesn't transform.
