Transformers Legacy toyline

[Platypus Prime]

I had an odd thought of getting Steeljaw mostly for the speaker. Not for Blaster (I don't have the right one) but for Origins Jazz. I thought it would probably have a 5mm port on the back to fit in his 'flip hand' socket. Then I finally saw the turnaround, and was disappointed that it was a hollow shaped for Blaster's fist, so it probably won't work.

I think I may have worked out something similar for vehicle mode, though, using a part from the Centurion Drone pack (also where the Bee gun came from). Not so good in Robot Mode. I hope they eventually do some more accessory packs, even if you don't have the right bot as intended they're great for options. Not shown here, using one of the larger guns and the Ironhide drill for Origin Wheeljack's 'creative endeavors'.

Looks like Jazz is trying to get what boardcast upon the higher waves of sound as well as the underground while in his alt mode

I can just hear starscream yelling "Shoot off his antenna... at the elbow!"

I can just hear starscream yelling "Shoot off his antenna... at the elbow!"

Yet no one else can hear him because he playing some of his favoute human music tracks over the antenna and scambling the cons audio sensors

I can't hear/read the phrase "human music" without thinking of this:

This has been a tangent. We now return you to your regular topic discussion.

I guess the aliens like playing the blame game as some big companies are doing, these days!

After seeing Thundertron paired with Calcitron and Night Strike in hand images, I wonder if they could have used Kingdoms Wingfinger and Rise of the Beasts Battle Master Airazor instead.

I mean they probably could have. Unless there are movie rights issues with that bird. But the shoulder slots on Thundertron are specifically sculpted to fit Ratbat's feet and hold him on there so this was the plan apparently right from toy design.

-ZacWilliam, which is fairly interesting

 

[Donocropolis]

Trying to remember. Are Laserbeak's feet compatible as well?

 

[Shadewing]

No.

 

[Donocropolis]

Ah, ok. Picking the bat as the animal to make perch-able on the pirate's shoulders is an interesting choice. Not a bad thing, just you don't normally associate bats with pirates.

 

[wonko the sane?]

Heavy metal pirate are we.

 

[Sabrblade]

Maybe Cannonball, the other pirate captain Transformer, can have bird-bots perched on him.

I actually like the "tank" mode of Legacy Tigerhawk a little more than what we managed to get back in 1999 with the original, although the rollers are solid molded details and don't actually roll (unlike the original's).

For comparison, here's the best pic I have of the original tank mode:

Looks like moving the post here chopped off one of the images and some of the text. Here's the missing image, which shows the non-rolling rollers:

If I squint I can kinda see what they were going for.

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

Go home Tigerhawk, you're drunk.

 

[unluckiness]

I’ve seen cats do that. I think it’s an invitation to rub their belly. Or fleas, I don’t remember.

Hm, I think there was only the two pics when I moved it... weird.

Same. I only remember those two.
