    Don't know if anyone has reported it yet, but I just found this Legends 4-Pack at the Covina TRU. Is this the first retail sighting?

    Not a bad set. Surprised they went with the Cybertron Starscream over the recent G1 Legends version, though.

    The neat thing is that the movie style Bumblebee and Starscream have both been retooled - they each have a new hand that can hold the included guns.

    The colours on the Movie figures are similar to the trans scanning dlx series that TRU also have.

    Very creative set on Hasbro's part. I'm digging G1 Bumblebee with movie stripes.

    Damn. That Classics BB legends figure looks ace, and the movie BB actually doesn't do so bad as a "The Scan" figure as well. Also like the Cybertron Screamer, while the deco is the only thing saving the Legends Movie Starscream for me.

    However, I REALLY like that classics BB figure, so if I ever see this at a resonable price I might have to think about biting.

    Too bad they didn't use the newest Cyberverse SS and BB, though.
    As for the Cybertron SS, well, that thing kicks the RtS version to the curb. That figure alone makes me want this set very badly.

    Wicked set. At least the movie legions have some guns. Got to have the cybertron starscream redeco. Its the oldest legend in this pack. Good thing it had the best articulation for its time.

    I've been waiting for this set! That Cybertron Starscream is the main attraction for me.

    Hopefully my TRU will see it soon.

    Legends of Cybertron Starscream is one of the best Legends sculpts ever, and a benchmark to compare all other Legends toys to.

    Universe Legends Bumblebee, on the other hand, is a very lackluster sculpt.
