Transformers Legacy toyline

My thoughts on that old picture:
1: The cons are attacking a secert Autobot base
2: My eyes were drawn to the road ways and I spotted a red cliffjumper in vehicle mode
3: On the mountain its self, a Blue & Red Seaspray + a Comsos in his standard colours
4: On the ground by OP is a grey/brown Powerglide
5: I wish someone would kind of recreate that with modern figures

Are you thinking of the early Japanese catalog pic that had the conehead's wings on unaltered first-year Seeker bodies?

I saw those while looking for the scan I was thinking of but, no. I think we're getting the Trust repaint from that image though. In the image I remember, the Starscream and Skywarp conheads wings also matched their main body color and had red and purple strips respectively. The Thundercracker Thrust though had blue wings, black rear wings and the red part was silver.

Did anyone know about this?

I have been wondering if that was possible, ever since I first saw it. I am surprised it took this long for someone to post a pic.

I'm sold. Someone make it happen.

One-third of it has happened.

 

[Gizmoboy]

I am really hoping that the upcoming Nacelle release will look this good.

Who buys just one seeker?

 

[UndeadScottsman]

Me! I just have Starscream at CHUG scale.

*kicks self for skipping Thundercracker and Skywarp*

Who buys just one seeker?

Well, when there is only one available...

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

I don't have any recent Seekers. I had the purple Walmart one from Siege (Hotlink?), but sold him off, and never bought any of the others. I'm a heretic.

Oh, right, I forgot about that part...

Know what? If they get the vehicle and body right, I'm okay if they G1-ify the head.

I'm sure that would be easier to replace with a 3P upgrade than the rest of it, at the very least.

When they did Bulkhead, the head was the only thing they didn't G1-ify.

Who buys just one seeker?

Those of us in regions where only the recent CHUG Starscream was for sale (while all the other seekers were limited editions, sold in specific shops, which were either difficult to know that they were being sold there, where difficult to access or featured payment systems unavailable to some).

Didn't later ones turn out well, specifically Skyquake?

 

[The Phazer]

NGL, I am pretty irritated that they wasted tooling for Breakdown giving him a second but virtually identical head tooling instead of fixing the many, many issues with the alt mode of that toy.

I was so disgusted that I never transformed it into robot mode. I just turned out into a limb and kept it at the back of Menasor.

I wonder what a Junkion flyer would look like?

Gyrocopter from Mad Max 2

Human Alliance Whirl actually makes a pretty good Junkion flier. Plus he turns into a giant gatling gun perfect for a Junkion combiner to hold.

Good luck, the HA toys are quite hard to find now.
