The Transformers Collectors Club has posted a new image of their figure subscription service Tarantulas figure on their Facebook. This version of Tarantulas used the Generations Junkion “Scrap Heap” as its base, referencing how Transmetal Tarantulas also had a third motorcycle mode, and the figure represents a pre-Beast Wars version of the character.
Check out the new image, and if you’re interested, head over to the Transformers Collectors Club homepage to find out more and sign up for the third year of the TCC figure subscription service, which will feature, in addition to Tarantulas, a Generation 2 Starscream, Serpent O.R., Krok with Gatoraider, Carzap with G.B. Blackrock Kreon, and Nacelle.

I don't like the Wreck Gar mold being used for Taranchulas but since I lost the Taranchulas toy I had when I was 8, I would like a new one to replace him
flatline72
I'll buy him. keep me in mind,

That particular demographic hasn't aged into the "I have more money than I know what to do with" bracket.

Interesting suggestion….now. Where are the 3rd party BEAST WARS DAMMIT!!!!
Lumpy
Definitely gonna sell this one… anyone interested, hit me up.

BBTS has a picture of the bike mode… is there a bigger (and updated) picture out there that I could see?

I also see Elite Guard Rest-Q (white Hubcap) in that picture!

And a repaint of Legends-Tailgate would be wrong-legged. I don't think there's a "right" answer to this question….
Bass X0
Shattered Glass Tailgate?
Hayon?
Personally, I'd rather have the Starscream mold since its the largest of the Generations Legends Targetmasters.
Maybe as one of the two in the bottom-right?
Radiant, the Aerialbot seeker?
Destroyer, the Combaticon seeker?
Maybe the pink Starscream should be Skandalist, the female seeker.
(NOTE: Hayon, Radiant, Destroyer and Skandalist are foreign names for Tailgate, Silverbolt, Onslaught and Starscream respectively)

That would be incredibly awesome.
The YouTube videos from an unboxing would be entertaining on an epic level.
Matt_M
But his Japanese release is wrong-headed.
G.B. Blackrock
My personal preferences are Rook or Glyph. Failing that, Tap-Out. Wipe-Out is a distant fourth, having already gotten the Japanese version so recently.

I have the United Windcharger versus Wipe-Out set that was the Takara decos of the RTS Windcharger mold. Even so, I think a Wipe-Out from the current mold would be a perfect 7th figure bonus next year for the TFSS. This is the sort of character I doubt that Hasbro makes plans for very often and makes perfect sense of obscure recolors for the Club.

I'd love that but I am worried he is a little to new for the club to get.
Oh crap I just realised that probably means legends shattered glass prime or legends size bugbite, damn it.
Oh or megatron as slammer to go with metroplex that could work.
Matt_M
Yeah, I'm all over the legends figure. Holding out hope that we get a Wipe-Out from Tailgate.
Cast
The legends class has had some great toys in it of late with the likes of swerve and cosmos.
flatline72
nope. It's going to be a legends class transformer….which sucks ass.
Knightsword
Number 7 will most likely be a repaint of one of the two with the new heads, or a seeker.

I too would rather have had Windbreaker than Carzap…let's hope he'll be in TSS 4.0 or apart of the next Botcon set…
