HAHAHA

And man, collecting has been ROUGH. Even with standard national online options I'm currently fucked with Breakdown, Shrapnel and core Snarl. The amount being skipped in 2023 was unreal. What I hate is how there is a very good chance it comes up later in the most random way (like the beast wars reissues I posted about the other day).

Its just occurred to me how much remold potential Animated Bumblebee has. I wonder if we might see an Animated Wasp or Cliffjumper in the Legacy line?

I think this has a lot more potential for customizers than for releases. But who knows, maybe Hasbro will follow the troopbuilder multipack with a big box set of background extras. Doesn't scream "flying off the shelves," though.

Yeah I think Wasp or Cliffjumper are the only ones that really have potential for individual releases, but I could definitely see a troop builder pack kind of thing with several of them in it.

I'd be a buyer because Legacy A. Bee may be the BEST Transformers so far this year.

I know the year is just one month old but still... :-P

I'd be down with it, especially for characters who got only a basic toy that is now hard to get, or not one at all (see Wasp-not-inator)

Agreed. Oh and I finally saw wave 1 united core toys at Target, the whole assortment. On Friday afternoon I went to an out of the way location about 25 miles away from my home because they were the only store that carried some Super 7 Target exclusive Godzilla toys I was looking for.

The second wave of Legacy United has hit US ports and is ready for distribution across the globe, so we are seeing more and more of its contents. Like this new review for Gears. It highlights some parts which we couldn't see from the initial images. You get a good look at his backpack, which is pretty massive for a minibot. But the main issue fans are not happy with is the view of the truck mode from the back since that's where the robot mode chest ends up. We do see a fun east egg though with an M on the back of his robot mode head, homaging the G1 toy.

Let us know what you think!

Also, as we have seen with previous waves, Hasbro has been lowering production numbers on these toys, and brick and mortar distribution is unreliable. There is a chance this could end up like Beachcomber so if you think you might want this Gears, it is ill advised to wait to see it on a shelf or wait for a discount.

Sadly, it looks like those high-riding tires are part of the overall engineering. That's the only thing I find objectionable. Each tire is sticking out so far from the wheel wells that it looks like they're ready to fall off. And the tires had a pronounced wobbling in that video, which I attribute to how precariously each one is perched on those hinges. Seriously - they couldn't think of ANY way to make them a bit more snug?

Fans are eager for the reveals of the second wave of Legacy United, especially when these toys could show up any day now. It may not have been realized by all yet, but we've already seen 4 of the 7 new figures this wave has to offer.

Since deluxe Sureshot and core Dinobot are said to no longer be part of this wave, that leaves the following:

Core BM Cheetor
Deluxe G1 Gears
Deluxe Cyberverse Chromia
Deluxe Shard
Voyager BW Silverbolt
Voyager Cybertron Starscream
Leader G1 Sandstorm

And below are the 4 we have already seen. This is basically to show that we already have a good idea of what is to come and set up your expectations for when the reveals do happen.

I think the only thing I want from this wave is Cheetor.

As long sit looks more like Titanium (never though I'd want a titanium design again) than Supreme, it should be fine.

Also, Nightslash would work for him too.

Yeah he grates my nerves as well, these guys put too much inflection in their voices that just plain makes them sound stupid. Just put a video up about the fig, its size, transformation and that's it.

THAAAAAAANK YOU!!!!

Anyway I didn't dig the images of Gears at first but after watching a review I believe I can add him to my Neo G1 collection. And far as Miss Chromia goes she will replace my Takara LG-11....'nuff said! :VEHI:

Against my better judgment, I watched it. Transformation is very good, I don't mind where the chest ends up since I think the original vehicle had a trunk like that, minus the Autobot symbol. What does bother me is the lack of weapon storage.

Same people that did a video and reveal for Tidal Wave in Singapore and then waited weeks before a full reveal on Pulse. Doing things in a timely manor isn't their strong suit. They don't even do that Spacebridge segment after a reveal video anymore. They can't get out ahead of these leaks fast enough to keep up.

Its Transformers Tuesday and Hasbro is giving us our first look at 3 releases. We have Legacy United leader Sandstorm, with a head based on the toy, and two prestige style releases. Those are Grimlock and Shockwave, using their most recent toys, in a comic accurate deco. Shockwave comes with a new Optimus head accessory.

Here are the photos followed by the description from comicbook.com

Hasbro has unveiled new Transformers figures inspired by the original comic book series, and you're seeing them first here at ComicBook.com! The first Transformers comic was produced by Marvel between 1984 and 1991, and these new Shockwave and Grimlock figures come straight out of its pages. The year 1984 was certainly special for Transformers fans, which is why you'll see 40th anniversary branding on the box along with iconic cover art from Transformers #5 Shockwave "Are All Dead" and Transformers #8 "And Now The Dinobots!" issues.

Inside the boxes you'll find figures with comic book-style deco and plenty of accessories. A full breakdown of both figures can be found below. Pre-order details have not been revealed at the time of writing, but they will hit store shelves in the Summer of 2024. This article will be updated with direct pre-order links when they become available. Stay tuned.

TRANSFORMERS GENERATIONS COMIC EDITION SHOCKWAVE ($39.99): "Ruled by logic, if it is more logical for Shockwave to override Megatron and seize command of the Decepticons, he will take that chance. Inspired by the original The TRANSFORMERS comic book series, this 7-inch Shockwave action figure converts from robot to Cybertronian spaceship mode in 15 steps. With comic-accurate deco and black line hatching details, Shockwave looks like it came out of a comic book, celebrating 40 years since TRANSFORMERS robots made their comic debut in 1984. Features articulated heads, arms, and legs for action poses and comes with the head of Optimus Prime piece that can be placed on the included display stand (display stand assembly required)."

TRANSFORMERS GENERATIONS COMIC EDITION GRIMLOCK ($59.99) "Grimlock leads a team of powerful Dinobots and fights on impulse, making him one of the strongest – and most unpredictable – Autobots. Inspired by the original The TRANSFORMERS comic book series, this 8.5-inch Grimlock action figure converts from robot to T.rex mode in 22 steps. With comic-accurate deco and black line hatching details, Grimlock looks like it came out of a comic book, celebrating 40 years since TRANSFORMERS robots made their comic debut in 1984. Feature articulated heads, arms, and legs for action poses and comes with 3 swords, double-barreled blaster and a crown accessory that can sit on the figure's head."

Was not expecting a toy-based head for Sandstorm.

Disappointed that Shockwave's barrel is still purple instead of gray. Dramatic Capture Series got that one right.

One of the swords Grimlock comes with is the one that Jose Delbo always drew with a chip in its blade.

The purple matches the color on the comic book cover and in the issue. It's accurate for this release.

Sorry, my mistake, I thought you were talking about his arm cannon barrel. Though again, it matches the source material. The barrel is purple in the comics.

So I'm guessing Legacy United pre-orders are going to drop here in the next few minutes (around 10am PST/1pm EEST) ? I know they had the fan event last week for the Haslab. Too bad they couldn't have shown off wave 2 at that time as well. These are just going to be dropped with little fanfare, plus no Spacebridge teases for wave 3

Looks like Sandstorm will have the best looking alt-modes out of all the triple changers we got so far, just like with the G1 figures. Really like the little cage, love those oddball accesories, like Cosmo's parakeet. I with we got more of those instead of guns, at least with the characters who aren't warriors.

Grimlock and Shockwave look incredible. Loving the comicbook accurate Optimus head, I know it will just be for display and not compatible with the upcoming commander, but I wish it was. Also, cheeky move giving Grimlock all the missing Dinobot swords.

EDIT: I meant Beachcomber's parakeet
