Maybe. You never know with DNA. Their set might be garbage or it might be utter brilliance.

Their armada Prime set was a bunch of unneeded crap when all people might have needed are the hands, crotchpiece and maybe the super mode arm extensions. They didn't even bother mirroring the footplates, meaning they stick out of both sides and are basically unusable.
Their Animated Optimus set looks great but I'm taking an informed risk on that one given their history of boneheaded decisions.

I was actually considering using my Beast Machine Spy Streaks as Tidalwave's Mini-con type jets. I think their size will work well.
Depending on how Titalwave's back looks in person, I might consider developing some 3D printed parts to fill him out a bit. I'm not usually bothered by hollow setions, but if it is truly bad, I'll consider doing something about it.

wish it was a Voyager, but I gotta say that she actually looks pretty good!
Didn't like the mold enough as Windblade to buy it, but if Slipstream looks good in person, I might pick her up.
Slipstream is fine. I wish they'd make the head more angular and retool the wings to better differentiate from Windblade.
But here's Quake, a retool from Skullgrin. Both Targetmasters are included, and I dare say that Quake is a DRAMATIC improvement over Skullgrin's lackluster vehicle mode.

United G1 Quake & Target Masters Official Reveal Images from Transformers Legacy
As promised, the Hasbro Transformers team is showing the Legacy United Wave 4 figures this week. Mark Maher has just posted our 2nd reveal today following Slipstream, with previews for United G1 Quake.

Slipstream looks pretty good aside from the hollowed out wings, Quake is most a vast improvement upon Skullgrin mold, thou the only thing letting the figure down is the lack of wheels for the vehicle mode, on Skullgrin, I have no idea what the heck they were trying to make for a alt mode, it was clearly a incomplete desgin, likely done on the fly and someone said "That good enough, into production is goes!!" With Quake, likely the person who created the desgin, actually managed to finish what they were aimming for as a alt mode
Maybe it's the lighting, but I'm not crazy about Quake's colors. He was a childhood favorite, and his deep maroon and dark blue color scheme was a part of that. I thought Titan's Return Quake captured it really well. These seem too bright.
Well whatever the case is, Mark is saying those colors are "accurate to his character persona".
Quake is just an embarrassment to the line. That isn't a tank. And if the plastic on the target masters were any thinner they'd only exist in two dimensions. That is a product that absolutely should not ship.
Slipstream is meh. That head doesn't go great with the rest of the body. Can the null rays not mount on the arms? But the colours are nice.

Is Slipstream really just a 'new head + new colors' retool?
That's kinda lame.
That's kinda lame.
Didn't someone figure out if you spin Windblade's hips in jet more, the back half of the jet looks more like an F-14? Guess that was unintentional.
Also new guns.
-ZacWilliam , not my ideal Slipstream, but pretty colors. I might bite.
Both the blue and the maroon on Quake could be a bit darker, which makes me wonder if it's a lighting issue. Kinda disappointed that the guns are blue and purple instead of black and purple though, and the back half of the turret in vehicle mode feels like a bit of a mess so far, maybe better pictures later will help there(and clarify if the colors are a lighting thing).
I agree that it's weirdly bright.
-ZacWilliam, I'm kinda content with the TR version. I may get this one just for the Target
masters, compair the two main robots in person and put the TM with whichever I like more.
Just noticed that as well. That is a disappointment. Some remolded shoulders or arms that could mount the Null Rays would have definitely have been nice.
