When it comes to high-quality figures, Star Wars has its Black Series, Marvel has its Legends Series, and now Transformers are getting their own line of 6-inch figures by way of Hasbro’s new R.E.D. Series.
The “Robot Enhanced Design” Series figures come with interchangeable parts and accessories.
Check out the gallery below to see the Optimus and Megatron Transformers R.E.D. series figures:

Both the Optimus Prime and Megatron figures are non-transformable, “kibble-free” versions based on their G1 animated designs.
Similar to Hasbro’s other premium figure lines, the Transformers R.E.D. series figures come with plenty of accessories.
Megatron includes “a Fusion Cannon, four alternate hands including one that holds an Energon cube,” as well as an interchangeable hand holding an “Energon Mace accessory.”
Optimus comes with “four alternate hands, Ion Blaster, Energon Axe,” and opening his chest reveals the “iconic Matrix of Leadership.”
Preorders for the Transformers R.E.D. series Megatron and Optimus Prime go live on June 26 at 1 pm ET at Walmart.com and Hasbro Pulse in the US. Both list for $19.99 and come out September 1.
The R.E.D. line is the latest 1980s-inspired premium line from Hasbro, joining the G.I. Joe Classified series revealed late last year.
