We don't get a lot of licensed items here anymore, but globally, there are still quite a few items being done for the dedicated movie fans, particularly in America and Japan.
We've already seen the licensed Jada diecast cars (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=24354), which are also being released in Japan directly by TakaraTomy.
Prime 1 Studios does statues, and they are now venturing into the TF5 characters, including the Decepticon Onslaught (http://news.tfw2005.com/2017/07/14/prime-1-studios-announces-last-knight-onslaught-statue-343916)... before an official toy exists too.
While over in Japan, a company called Goodluck, is doing three replica swords from TF5 (http://news.tfw2005.com/2017/07/15/transformers-last-knight-replica-swords-amazon-japan-343940) (Optimus', Megatron's, and Excalibur). I can't tell if they are licensed, but it looks like they have a history of replica weapons, so could be legit.
They are made from PVC plastic, and are about 110-140cm long, priced at about AU$140-280 each. The listing suggests that they are made to order with a 10 day turnaround, so could be available for a while... if you know someone in Japan.
