The sighting lets us know that the Clash of Transformers is a sub-line of Toysrus exclusive redecos of the legion class. It is also so far the only way of procuring Legion Megatronus and the pictures offer us the very first look at this toy.
The two packs found are Bumblebee VS Underbite and Optimus Prime VS Megatronus, whose pictures can be found below. They were found in at Toys R Us in Parramatta, Australia, and each pack was 20$ AUD.

We don't know yet but you will get a better chance of answers in the actual show thread which deals with story.

No he won't, no one knows at all yet I'm curious what the deal is too. Is this some weird upgraded version of a villain we've already seen? The toy's alt mode is a lot like Shockwave's, something to do with him?
I personally think it's Steeljaw + Dark Energon of some kind, thanks to the art we've seen on the toy's box (see, can totally make this discussion about toys while avoiding the show thread since I'm behind and I'm trying to avoid spoilers )

I meant that when we do know, it will probably first be mentioned in that thread instead of this one, hence why I recommend he follows it if he wants to know the answer one day.

Always a possibility. Reminds me of the TransTech/Armada Megatron H-tank, though
Also, what is going on with Bumblebee's head and chest?

I'm also eager to see who precisely this character is. My guess would be Megatronus Prime, which would make sense given that the rest of the Primes are sending another Prime back to take care of him. I would also prefer it not to be Megatron in any shape or form, since he got such a good send-off in Predacons Rising.

Actually, Megatronus looks pretty cool. I wanna see the Deluxe, though.

Glad you like him! Buuut... I'm surprised to hear you say that the lack of paint helps his hollowness and you're ok with it, cause it sure didn't help Jetfire. Not that I'm trying to hate, I love Jetfire, but I honestly see myself skipping Jazz, at least in favour of a better deco'd Takara version.
Well, is that what I said? What I meant is, he's got some glaring hallowness (which we've all come to expect these days, take it or leave it), and that maybe the fact that he is mostly white is why his lack of paint apps seems less jarring. To me, anyways. No this didn't help Jetfire. (No hate. )
You can bet your lil buns Takara's will be prettier than this, and he will be well worth waiting for.
You guys should thank me for taking the bullet for you.
Another thought. I could see this mold getting re-deco'd/re-tooled into Prowl.
And my reaction to the latest news...
OH GOODIE! MORE LEGIONS!!!!!

It doesnt hurt though. To me it is the very same as that predacon rising subline at Target. And that one got us some pretty fun stuff like an homage to Tunderclash.

Damn, you beat me to it. Yeah, this is exactly what this is. With unexplained decos and all. I have no clue what that underbite is supposed to refer to.

With one of those coming from a line that also gave us a proper white-cab car carrier to red white and blue robot Ultra Magnus, I'm okay with that.

I forgot about that. So a white Prime and a blue Ultra Magnus, both redecoes of a red Optimus Prime mold, in the same line. That's a first, I think.

Haha, speaking of bacon, this is what I just tried:
It's a local bakery chain that makes their bread with bacon and cheddar.
Ok ok, its out of my system now and I am done, moving on. There will actually be more RID news as soon as I can get home and upload some pictures
PS: Dairy Queen's corporate offices are located in the Minneapolis suburb of Edina, Minnesota, USA.

I'm so down. And I'm quite happy they're TRU and not Wal-Mart lest we suffer another no-show like the AOE BW repaints

DQ is as small town Americana as John "Cougar" Mellencamp, Ya'll.
DQ is an American invention, just like jazz.(the music, not the toy)
The only true American art forms, jazz and getting fat.

Sure would be cool if the Clash Prime or UM legions could fit in CW Ultra Magnus.
WJ you asked what that Underbite repaint might be a reference to. I think the majority are just for repaints sake.

They are far too big. But I think the Daniel that came with MP 10 could
And that Underbite repaint is really odd. It's not much of a repaint since it keeps the purple body, but it gives him a fluo green snout.
Now I am not sure if the following were just for the game or for repaint's sake (I didnt include them in the original report since they had no toy class associated to them)

As a fad or because your body actually can't tolerate gluten? If the latter, my sympathies.
Either way, ice cream cake is the best, but especially when it's the kind that has ice cream AND actual cake in it.
Back on topic... uh... I opened my deluxe Strongarm recently. Fairly disappointed, just feels cheap and lacks something I found cool about her on the cartoon, with the lightbar breaking up and winding up on her arms.

This deco is cool. Pumpkin is just silly.
Personally the last thing I need is an army of legion Prime repaints.
..."army of legion"

Good call, but I did a Google search for the phrase and realized my intent could have been mistaken.
Then I thought that my link would make more sense on the combiner wars thread.

He is $5 fun. He is not $9 fun. I actually prefer the One-Step's aesthetics, but the legion does a little more.

I guess you didnt read the entire article or skimmed it too quickly to notice that I included a link to Chuck's review of these. He reviewed them last week and he was first, hence why he was newsed on the front page. Maybe you missed that, so make sure you keep your eyes peeled on Seibertron.com
