Yeah, I get that about Legacy. That's my POINT, is that that thin elevator pitch is all the fictional/conceptual spine this line has. It's funny you compared it to those lines for clarity or illustration, when both of those got a decent amount of media depictions fleshing out their story and...

It IS a subline based on racing (presumably around a track). It's quite odd that Cosmos was here at all; someone ordering these are Walmart must really be aggressive about specific exclusives that'll pull people there. "Yeah yeah it's a wave of mostly redecos and retools. BUT that tape deck guy...

Probably a response to LiamA's post mentioning "Pretender Bumblebee".

Legacy does seem to have been weirdly disjointed. For all its flaws in execution, WFC was presented from the beginning as a trilogy, with a clear mission statement and even a basic plot arc. IDK if that got shaken up a bit by the pandemic, as I don't recall whether the BW pivot was always...

Dang, I was gonna either skip or wait on Road Rocket, but interest in this one is rising. Maybe after I get an Override. Of course, given pricing, they may both have to wait a while.

A Selects 2-pack with a Weaponizer (Brunt?) that could give him his Lightformer cannon would be SWEET.

I mean, maybe he meant retooling him beyond an alt head (like IDK, other changed parts that might bring him more in line with his Armada appearance). This looks nice.

He's just that nice.

Box does say Autobot Pointblank.

I really hope so. This mold in opaque plastic is a must, and that does open the door for the redecos.

It's a nice color scheme either way.

I think I see what you mean (as in regular retail Deluxe vs US store-exclusive Deluxe) but we're at a (price) point where it's somewhat cold comfort. It's the "on top of the price hike for Legacy" that gets me. That local price hike was already enough to cement my decision to be much pickier...

I love love love clear plastic in general from a purely visual standpoint. Just stand em up and look at em. Forever. Engineering and durability are another matter, as I always feel very tentative when actually transforming or even holding the things. I'd be all too glad to remove clear plastic...

Now Amazon is showing them for me as Temporarily Out Of Stock, which... thanks, Amazon.

"There isn't a tighter shirt." "We checked."

I lucked out and managed to do that too; fortunately I only really wanted two of the Takara parts (Scattershot and Lightspeed) so that was easy to flip. Nosecone and Strafe were tricky to pick from, but I went with the original toy colors for Nosecone and I opted to let go of the Takara Strafe...

Yeah that's one thing I realized when I picked up my custom for the photos. The stockiness, the proportions -- it's a shrunken down MP that has the vibe of Don Figueroa art. The "Cybertronian" aesthetic of Siege may have been a thin masking over eventual Earth mode molds, but this mold was a...

Override continues to look great in robot mode and just annoying in altmode -- seriously, just something to give the area around her head some cohesiveness in altmode would have been most welcome. The rear of the car being somewhat small (because the boots are so big) is also an odd look, but it...

Huh. Must have missed it. Still says November for me for that pack, although Twin Twist etc are available.

Oh, is the Leadfoot two-pack also available now?
