    I've never bought a Dr Wu before, which vendors usually end up carrying them?

    Hope these see the light of day! They look fantastic, I think they would go great with a Legends collection...

    Aw, they look adorable. Not my cup of tea, personally, but if they're cheap (around $20-$30), I might pick them up. Of course, now they need to do a Barrage, Venom, and Ransack to go along with Chop-Shop.

    I'm a minicon person, so count me in. I hope Dr. Wu does the pre-TF Beet versions for the other three too.

    That's actually an awesome idea! Can see a dozen of these as a swarm of insect's eating away at my MP collection shelves and wall's.

    But I just know that Wu will charge too much for these and then currency conversion and shipping will kill further.

    For whatever reason, I love the little chop shop he's basing these off. I actually have both the takara and Hasbro ones.

    I'll definitely pick these up to go with him. I'd buy the rest of the deluxe Insecticons too.

    Im thinking these will look great fighting with the titanmasters on top of the new Titan returns bases.

    This is one of those things where I'm not sure why it's a thing but it's a thing I want bad.

    I know this is a nitpicky comment, but if they had been just 1 cm taller they could have been good for Legends scale insecticons, but as it is they are just a bit too small for that.

    I like the look of these. I have Mp's of most of the cast of Devastation (all the Autobots and about half the Decepticons) so it'd be cool to set up a scene from the game and pepper it with a bunch of these mini insecticons.

    Hasbro legends kickback is already on the way in the titans return line. It is confirmed.

    Based on the price, this may be my first "Dr. Wu" purchase or the first I considered.

    Surprised at the reception these are receiving.

    My first reaction was "Why, exactly??".

    "Different strokes..."

    The Transmission podcast already leaked that as coming. I'd guess third wave of Titans Return Legends.

    Probably pick these guys up to add to my legends scale shelf. Should look good next to Hastak, DX9, and IF figures.

    If these sell well maybe Dr. Wu will tackle the Deluxe Insecticons and the mini-bots. Legends Optimus armed with a Target Master BB would make me smile.
