Transformers Legacy toyline

[LordGigaIce]

I even said "anymore".

my guess is they like the thematic through lines

Legacy didn't have fiction but the "everyone from the multiverse converges" stuff was present throughout. And it sounds like the common element from the next trilogy will be the Thirteen.

Granted you could do the Thirteen in Legacy and still have it be thematically consistent but if you really think about it they could just keep doing Legacy forever 🫠

That 40th Anniversary Trigger video showcases quite a few of the characters available in Legacy TBH.

 

[unluckiness]

Isn't that because they're the most important or popular characters?

 

[Sabrblade]

Does Overcharge have the stickers of all the different faction symbols like the e-Hobby one?

Looks to be just tampographed Decepticon symbols only.

 

[Agent X]

All this discussion about Breakdown's colors, but I haven't seen anyone mention that he doesn't have the red slime dripping down the roof. That part is kind of shocking to me after the work they did to replicate the crazy deco details on the Toxitron collection toys.

Oh I'm sure toyhax will have the toys covered.

And I mean COVERED. In stickers. More than anyone will need. More than most will want.

And then Takara will rerelease them two years later with better colors in a Dramatic Capture Series 3-pack and we'll all wish Hasbro had done them like that the first time around.

Except Overcharge and G2 Breakdown never appeared in animation to have slaveish tv decos.

They'll get extremely toy-accurate ones instead.

Overcharge will be the new head with Blitzwing colors in a pack of 3.

 

[CoffeeHorse]

I do want Overcharge. I like troop builders too much to not get one. But I'm going to wait until it shelfwarms its way to clearance.

I'm not convinced it would have been worse off by gutting it down to a Voyager instead of unconvincingly padding it to a Leader. The higher budget bought some extra complexity, but I don't see how that extra complexity helped either of the vehicle modes.

His name is very apt for his price point.

Damn, someone beat me to it

 

[LBD "Nytetrayn"]

Wait... end of line? Is legacy actually ending?

It's only after posting this that I now realize and appreciate the truly unintended irony here.

 

[unluckiness]

It took people pointing it out for me to realize that Overcharge has a new head.

 

[PrimalxConvoy]

I didn't know the sword fits alongside the underneath of the cockpit (with a groove for the bit that sticks out on the sword). The wing-blade can also fit underneath too.

I wonder which other TF would benefit more from having those OS transparent red gauntlets?

Just don't Gerwalk him with the wing sword attached.....

 

[Darth_Prime]

They mentioned something about Armada characters too in the video.

Number 1 I’d like would be Scavanger who I believe could be retooled / recolor to Energon Landmine fairly easy.

Another would be Blurr.

Of course Demolisher and Cyclonus.

Jetfire.

 

[lastmaximal]

Jetfire seems like a good Leader class bet, as the shirt he can be pants for is already waiting.

Although it'd also be neat to see how he does as a purely standalone shuttlebot.

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

Jetfire and Overload, because Prime needs his magic mushrooms.

Blurr, mostly for a repaint as Universe Swerve. For some reason I just really liked the red and black deco on that design.

Hoist, with an articulated shovel arm rather than the geared gimmick.
