But dont we already know that's what he is?

Megatron Wolf wrote:i guess no one plays that game thats advertised all over the RiD boxes cause half of those were already revealed in that. But anyway i wonder if windblade is going to be in the show or if they're just putting her in the RiD line cause generations no longer has a legion class. Also wouldnt be surprised at all if megatronus is a resurrected megatron, just like optimus he just cant stay dead.

What if this is a pretender to the throne? A la Beast Wars Megatron?

Then we'd have three Megatronuses in this universe.

Drift is a fantastic figure and probably the best RID figure released thus far. One thing that impressed me right away was the swords being made of a solid, stiff plastic; after all these years it's nice to have melee weapons that aren't bent right out of the package! Something that you may not be expecting is an added horizontal wrist joint that allows for some more dynamic sword poses, while it's nice I would have preferred a vertical joint for better sword pointing. All in all this is a better figure than Prime and I would recommend picking it up first.

The commercial features Hyperchange Bumblebee, who's gallery can be seen here, and One Step Steeljaw, who will soon be released.

And I'm happy with Strongarm. If I'm that easy to please, Drift will...

I can live with gaps. I have a good imagination, and I like to use it.

By space do you mean the piece of paper they are printed on? The state of instructions lately, has me really bamboozled.

Agreed. Even worse, my TRU in canada sells the warrior class for 20$ now while they still sell the generations deluxes for 18$.

I have to agree with internet personality and Youtube God Vangelus when he said that these figures are not worth $20. I paid more than that to get them early for reviews but even then it's a 50/50 chance I'll make the money back, down the line.

After the Wave 1 RID Legion figures left me a touch flat, I was hoping that Grimlock and Sideswipe would really wow me. While the paint details and overall design is top notch. They just didn't grab me. Sideswipe is your standard car design but the paint is the same metallic red that was found on Legends Windcharger. Grimlock has an inventive transformation that takes it cues from the Warrior figure, but comes off very stiff. Overall I recommend going for the Wave 2 Warriors before these Legion figures.

The horse, while not fully decomposed, is very visibly dead. Any attempts at beatings or other violence are unnecessary.

But in the meantime, check out what Shartimus Prime has to say about the toy below!
