Another Seibertron.com gallery for the weekend, featuring some ambiguously placed Generations Legion figures of Ultra Magnus, Skywarp and Cliffjumper. Why ambiguous? Not only do these go almost hand in hand with the galleries we posted yesterday of Motorbreath and Thundercracker, they also sport the Generations Combiner Wars packaging and logo, though without the Combiner Wars banner.

At the same time, they are simple repaints, much like two figures in yesterday's galleries, of the Optimus Prime, Starscream and Bumblebee that were re-released with Age of Extinction. Just to make it clearer for everyone. In any case, click on any of the images below to view their full galleries (as Ultra Magnus' latest Leader update is just around the corner...)!

Looking forward to getting this and RiD's legion Magnus.

Who do they think they're fooling with that white-coloured Magnus artwork on that Legion class 'Magnus' figure?

Also never liked that Bumblebee mold. Cliffjumper's original 1984 toy still looks better in a few ways (the head and face design in particularly, and I dislike the arms on that newer one)

Skywarp's colour scheme always looks cool.

You should ask Seibertron himself, these are his figures and photos.

"Magnus" is the nickname for the smaller cab robot which was hardly ever seen in-fiction. The official name for the figure is still "Ultra Magnus" however, no matter the form.

Get over what? I was pointing out the misleading artwork that shows Ultra Magnus's proper robot form but in the cab's colours when that form should be red and blue and also not on this packaging at all since it doesn't resemble the toy inside in anything but colour. Good thing it's packaged in robot mode so you can see what you're getting as the character portrait fails there. A recoloured image of Prime would be seem cheap (like this repaint) but more fitting to the figure people are buying here. When has his main and most common robot form ever been white?

It would have been funny if the Legends Ultra Magnus had worked out to be small enough to fit in the new Leader Class toy, so you could actually have a tiny white Optimus sit inside if you didn't particularly care for Minimus or Alpha Trion.

I got cliffjumper and skywarp from mandarakes website in japan and I got ultra magnus from a seller on ebay out of North carolina. They are apparently currently available at two discount chains exclusive in the south As well as from hasbro Asia (cliffjumper amd skywarp both have the Asia sticker on the back of their packaging). I'm assuming these will be available at other chains such as big lots and dollar general and possibly family dollar later this year.

Technically speaking they're not. Like the other Legions and the Kids Day Protectobots they have no subline, which makes them part of the generic Transformers 2014/2015 line. But for the ease of organisation such "subline-less" toys are usually put with Generations.

Also, they share the same packaging style as the CW figures. Not to mention GENERATIONS Combiner Wars kinda encompasses all.

I kind of like the different looking way they painted that UMagnus. However, I can't stop seeing in the bot mode pic shown in the article, that he looks like he is dribbling a ball, or about to punt...

I was surprised how much better it is than the Henkei version. This is another example of Takara's version isn't always better! It seems whoever comes out with a figure second has the better scheme. The original Masterpiece Starscream is another example.

And this is a complete set already. Legends Starscream, Skywarp and Thundercracker are released. Leader Skywarp hasn't even been mentioned yet. Well, in any official capacity anyway.

their needs to be somes sweeps for limbs now! each sweep can be an arm or leg! that would be very epic

Posted by gothsaurus on May 20th, 2015 @ 9:34am CDT

Yeah, I'm kinda bummed they didn't make Galvatron the middle guy... then you could have scourge, sweep, cyclonus and armada as arms.

I do hope we get a troop builder sweep option.

And I do hope we get a set of seeker arms, strange as that is. We have a mold ripe for a light retool into them. If Hasbro doesn't, I'll have to take it on as a kitbash project.

Transformers Combiner Wars galleries are back with a vengence. This time we take a high resolution photographic look at Combiner Wars Defensor and his component Protectobots Voyager Class Hot Spot, Deluxe Class Rook, First Aid, Streetwise, Blades and Legends Class Groove. You can find all these guys in wave 3 of Combiner Wars.

In this iteration of Defensor, Groove has been replaced as a limb by newcomer Rook and relegated to forming chest armor for Defensor. Fix a snack and click on any of the images to see the full galleries. Seriously there are over 975 new images to drool over in these galleries so it may take a while.

I was hoping to snag these in the store. Didn't want to order bulk online. I was encouraged when Walmart got in bunches of wave 2. Was discouraged when yesterday I found them on clearance for $8. Meanwhile, one step changers from last year clog the shelf.

Offroad and First Aid's Hand/Foot/Guns can attach to the top of the vehicle mode too. There's a slit cut into their specific guns that slots on the tab on top of the the vehicle (For Offroad it's in the tray) They sit nice and flush.

Well see if I have time sometime in next week. Thought about it but at almost 1000 pics for these 7 galleries I had to move on right now to other new figures. Viper and warpath and thundercracker are next. Still wish I had found a small dog toy from schleich that would fill in for buster In a gallery.

I'm super excited for these guys. Completing Defensor was a white unicorn for "carytheweeone. I received all the limbs as a gift (did they come as a 4 pack?) for xmas. It seemed like it took forever to not only track down Hot Spot, but to talk my folks into buying it.
