It'll probably come out at the usual places like previous Chinese New Year releases. It's listed at Voyager price and also includes a flight stand.

Apologies. Local retailers listed it as Legacy and I admittedly wasn’t very thorough looking through the threads.

I believe it is apart of Legacy, its just a exclusive of sorts, much like the selects line has been apart of WFC trilogy and Legacy!
I wasn't sold on the Alt mode of Tidal Wave until I saw this pic:
That does looks cool, a lot better than it split into three parts!

I hope that the next attempt at on-screen Cybertronian modes takes a page from The War Within and at least tweaks the robot modes to make sense.
BB and Jazz are fine for what they tried to do (I'm on the fence re: Wheeljack), but they can do something else next time.

There's a special insane charm about the G1 Episode 1 characters that transform from Sci-Fi vehicles into robots that somehow already have Earth mode kibble that I absolutely love and can't believe we've actually gotten in real, plastic form, and I'm happily buying them.
But for a future series, yeah, I'd want the robots to look like they turn into whatever their Cybertronian modes are.
I mean, this is what some of us wanted exactly from Siege. And we only got more or less three: The Seeker mold, Optimus, and Soundwave. So now that we are getting these, I am happy. More so that Bumblebee might be able to fit somehow inside of Wheeljack. For Cybertronian molds that look like non-earth vehicles, we get that much more often between TWW designs and the WFC video game designs. Arguably the BB movie design as well.
It is odd how I want to know if I can attach the gun to Wheeljack's shoulder, and every picture and video so far seems to go out of its way to NOT show the top of the shoulders to see if they have a peg hole anywhere.
Can you imagine if Siege had gone whole-hog on this idea? A whole line of newly made-up alt modes that fit in with the general sleek, rounded Cybertronian aesthetic as seen in More than Meets the Eye, but turning into exactly the G1 bots, complete with Earth kibble? A Siege Optimus that goes from something like the Gamer Edition alt-mode to the Earthrise robot mode? It would have been amazing.
Giving Wheeljack that much usable cargo space is a feat even if the robot mode slightly suffers for it. We've had movie Bumblebees with worse backpacks.
I'm convinced. I'd take a whole redo of Siege in this style.

I'd imagine an Optimus in that vein would still look semi-ish, seeing as Bumblebee still kinda like like a VW bug, just in a sorta classic UFO way; Jazz is still kinda a sports car, adn Wheeljack while not being a race car, feels like a Van or cargo/shipping truck. So he'd probably be a sleek looking Semi. Maybe an angled front like Wheeljack, likely a single window. In hindsight it could create a visual connection between Orion Pax toy (Kup repaint, who has a similar front end) while still feeling like Optimus and a Semi.
And they even gave Tidal Wave a new City/Base mode, too.
So attempted a quick and dirty attempt of what I'd image such a vehcile mode to look like
Same! I have been debating until I saw this picture. Now I think it is a must have for me.
I just want to see the mini Tidal Wave pieces. What are they hiding?
Right? I'm resigned to the fact that they won't transform into a Core Class Tidal Wave (sad trombone) but it'd be nice if they did something other than connect to Megatron.
