What Optimus Primal is that?

the original ultra sized mold, and i believe its the reborn/10th remold (new robot head, monkey face, and chest plate).

Swerve's Targetmaster has been changed into Phaser, and his gun mode is painted to resemble the My First Blaster.

Good eye on the My First Blaster. And in case someone's wondering who this Phaser is, he's a G1 Micromaster Combiner. His partner is Blast Master, now known as Payload.


Left: Blast Master, Right: Phaser

Actually, it's the Voyager figure. Takara is currently calling their Generations line "Legends"

Yeah, the term "Legends" has been applied to so many different things over the years:

1989: Legends - a Kmart-exclusive G1 subline containing the Classic Pretenders without their shells

2004: Transformers Legends - an anthology book containing prose stories based on G1, the Beast Era, and Armada

2005-2010: Legends class (originally "Legends of Cybertron") - a size class of 3-inch-tall mass retail figures; later became integrated into the "Cyberverse" subline as "Legion class"

2012-Present: Transformers Legends - a mobile game for Android and Apple platforms

2013-Present: Legends class - A new size class introduced in the Generations Thrilling 30 line that's bigger than the Cyberverse Commander class but smaller than Scout class

2014: Transformers: Legends - The third Japanese line to be a counterpart to Hasbro's Generations line (the first being United and the second being Takara's Generations line), beginning with the mid-2014 Thrilling 30 toys, and themed around Beast Wars in packaging and media (i.e. - the manga).

When in doubt, ask Sabrblade.

In this case, do doubt. I wrote a mistake in that list, but it's been fixed now.

I've preordered Brainstorm. I had no exposure to Headmasters before now, excepting TFWiki and TF: Animated, so I am very excited. The jet/alt-mode leaves a bit to be desired (what's up with those wavy wings?!) but the deco just blows the Hasbro version out of the water.

There's a photo posted somewhere of him in botmode with the head unattached, arms drooping by his sides. For some reason that photo sold me on the mold.

Can't wait for in-hand pics! And then to have mine in-hand!

[LOST Cybertronian]

Takara Tomy has teased on their twitter account, a silhouette of a trio of fembots. Looks like this tease is to indicate the eventual release of Arcee, Chromia and Windblade in their Transformers Legends line. Stay tuned to Seibertron.com and we will bring you updates to these figures as they happen. Until then, enjoy this little teaser from Takara.

[shajaki]

i hope they release proper shots of them, and not hasbro stand-ins while we wait for two weeks wondering

[Shuttershock]

I guess that would scale better with Metroplex.

Sadly still no word for a Nautica toy.

I'm afraid you are mistaken. These new Fembots are just the Generations Deluxe molds released in the final one of the following categories:

Oh, silly me. I thought we had reigned in our ADD-like excessive re-branding and were sticking with consistent terminology. My mistake.

It is consistent in a sense, but Hasbro and TakaraTomy do not share terminology most of the time. Besides, Commanders, Legions and anything inbetween have either been branded as EZ-Collection or sold in 2-packs in regular lines. "Legends" never had meaning there.

Right, I had forgotten that this was a Takara announcement.

Sadly still no word for a Nautica toy.

My thoughts exactly, and she's the only femme of the bunch I'd actually be wanting to pick up from the store. Can't have a complete Lost Light crew without the savant

Yeah I want a Nautica. Chromia turned out to be a most unpleasant character that has seen no repercussions for her deplorable acts. I really don't understand that. Anyway, I have first edition Arcee that will stand in for her anyway. It's the new, unique and interesting Nautica I want. But no.

Fembots? How can a ROBOT be female or male???

Fanboys with degenerate minds came up with that word so they have an excuse to put breasts on a robot. Sickos.

[Jelze Bunnycat]

Fembots? How can a ROBOT be female or male???

Ask the ones who designed them back in 1985/1986. Better yet, look up Mighty Orbots.

[Downbeat]

Robots have been gendered since their creation. Look up RUR, it'll blow your mind.

As for Chromia, RID 33 spoilers: Windblade doesnt trust her anymore. She's living on her own. Windblade only trusts Wheeljack at this point.

Maybe she'll come out in a wave with Riptide also. I've got a fondness for boatformers.
