    hmmm I guess this a set based around the final fight given the cameo's of a generic looking rampage but I don't recall seeing a Brawl.

    still its a nice set for the kids I guess

    No sir, I don't like it. Other than Brawl, they are barely recolored.

    Do want. Can never have enough Legends. Hope it'll be easy to track down.

    Pass. I'd much rather have repaints as new characters like the Target or K-Mart sets last year...

    Pass. Brawl is interesting, but like Bass says, the others aren't appreciably different from previous incarnations. If hasbro wasn't so stuck on keeping same-character repaints so visually close to the original decoes, this could have been a cool set.

    My thoughts exactly. And I'm digging the silver highlights on Ratchet.

    Bah, Desert Brawl is so awesome, but... is Bonecrusher even different at all?

    I wonder if that's destined for Target. The box design looks just like the other two Legends 4-packs that Target carried a couple years back.

    I believe he is:

    Bonecrusher - Movie Legends - Transformers Resources

    The first Legends Bonecrusher was all the same color plastic. It looks like the new one has some darker brown parts and a few more paint apps.

    Ditto. It's also a 'fight' to disclaim Vangelous' podcast assertion (if only kidding) that Legends are just toys for poor children.:scalper

    This set will be great for anyone who missed out on these guys on their original outings. Really digging the new colours on Brawl as well.

    I'd get Brawl if it was released individually but the rest are a waste. Probably passing.

    Not too bad, but not interesting enough to get. Ratchet's glow-in-the-dark shade of green, and something about Ironhide's deco bothers me. Brawl looks decent, and Bonecrusher looks nice, but not good enough to make the set worth it. Though I would definitely get the Bonecrusher if it was sold on it's own.
