Transformers Legacy toyline

[TriBlurr]

Wave 2 is Sureshot, Gears, the Rock Lord (name?), BW Silverbolt and Sandstorm. Right? Wonder if they may slip SS86 Swoop in there as well.

Wave 2 is

Core Beast Machines Cheetor
Deluxe G1 Gears
Deluxe Cyberverse Chromia
Deluxe Infernac Shard
Voyager Beast Wars Silverbolt
Voyager Cybertron Starscream
Leader G1 Sandstorm


Core Beast Wars Dinobot and Deluxe G1 Sureshot have been moved to United wave 5 next year.

Were there any other Star Raiders left to announce/reveal other than Thundertron?

Can't imagine a case of 8 Deluxes will only have 3 characters (Though the Legacy Beast assortment did). If that is the case, surely they wouldn't pack 4 Lockdowns, 3 Cannonballs , and Filch one-per-case right?



Right?

Right?

Two left counting Thundertron.

One more Deluxe and a Leader. That part was confirmed on the Stream.

The leak list puts them as G2 Road Pig and Thundertron.

It just occurred to me as I type this that Mark made a point to call out Lockdown as "another dark colored Junkion mold you could build with" during the stream like it meant something. And G2 Road Pig out of the Junkion Motorsycle would be that as well.

No one knows what's up with Thundertron since one was already at retail. He doesn't have any other official color scheme. It could be like Knock-out/Breakdown and a wrong name/changed plan. Or it could be they've invented a new color set for him. We don't know.


-ZacWilliam, I think the rumor is they're saving them for SDCC

Idk about how these work, so pardon if I bit oj a hypothetical, but it's annoying that they'd go 4-3-1 instead of 3-3-2. Lockdown isn't THAT cool.

Also, maybe Mark is just playing up the gimmick as a selling point, since the Weaponarmorossilizer gimmick has proven to be a popular one. Some color variation (we now have a few in traditional Junkion colors, one in bright green, one in purple, and now two darker colored ones) is probably something worth calling out.

Also wondering what the deal will be about Thundertron, assuming that hasn't changed. I thought all this time he was a Voyager, so the Leader price tag pretty much cements me not bothering with him for now.

Not “his” per se but they have Leo Prime, Alpha Trizer, and Go Prime they could draw from.

Not any of those schemes, but I think he’d look pretty cool with orange hair. Maybe a Celtic/Ganondorf vibe.

 

[unluckiness]

They could go the lighter blue the Prime toy had with the allspark blue beard and clear blue parts if they really wanted to.

I'd rather see something totally different. Maybe more traditional blacks/browns/reds of movie pirates?

Curious what would be packed in with him if he's going to be sold as a leader. Maybe RotB Airazor redone as a parrot (she sits nicely on his shoulder) and a couple of other accessories?

 

[lastmaximal]

Red/gold longcoat and black base for a Captain Hook vibe might be nice.

Can this mold still have the claw shoulders?

It'd be be nice if we got a Trashmaster redeco at some point, too.

I've given up on a combined form-based multipack, but these guys are so fun it's a pity they all haven't gotten multiple redecos by now.

Here's a weird thing from Walmart's website and their "bought since yesterday" tracker:

Ferak: 1000+ sold (in stock)

Lockdown: 1000+ sold (in stock)
Cannonball: 500+ sold (out of stock)
Filch: 100+ sold (out of stock)

I'm guessing Ferak is his own case, so I'm not counting that. I can't imagine what case assortment the deluxes got that there's a 10:1 ratio of Lockdown to Filch.

Well I guess the idea of painting up a Beast Machines Silverbolt out of Filch (most of the body's in a close enough color) is probably out. (The mainline ROTB Airazor is probably closer anyway, but a totally different color base.)

 

[Robogeek1973]

Managed to acquire Filch, Cannonball, and Ferak yesterday on Pulse.

You can see Road Pigs arms in Mark's latest Instagram post. It's Crashbars arms in black and red.

The prevailing theory is that Thundertron will come with weaponizer. His msrp is the same as the Netflix spoiler boxes, so slightly higher than the standard leader price. So similar to Megatron and Skelivore.

Probably one of the Rocks. Hasbro talked about the Star Raiders hunting them when they showed of regular deco Thundertron.

 

[Sabrblade]

Here's a thought. What if Thundertron actually comes with a redeco of SS86 Perceptor as the Chairman?

 

[Shadewing]

Being /completely/ Honest; I'd been kinda disapointed that we didn't get him since we have SS Perceptor, so if they did that I would HAVE to buy it.

Thank you for pointing that out - I kept thinking, "Wait. How did he get so tall?"

He also has the green stripes on his legs that he conspicuously didn't before.

 

[CoffeeHorse]

Oh wow. Those green stripes so utterly belong that I didn't notice they were there. I just didn't notice anything wrong.

 

[Dake]

Wait... those weren't there before either?

 

[Sabrblade]

They pointed that out the fan stream that the samples they had on hand weren't as close to finished as they had hoped, and noted that the green stripes would be there on both the next batch of official stock photos and on the final product.

 

[CoffeeHorse]

You gotta love how they read our feedback and actually answer our questions instead of just saying "No."
