goestron:
Elbow and knee joints on Warpath, SOLD!
General Tekno:
"Cosmo"?

I'm guessing typo. Previous information/solicitations seemed to suggest that Cosmos would be Autobot Cosmos and Wheelie would be Autobot Wheelie. Neither have the Autobot name in front on the solicitation, so I wouldn't necessarily take that as official.

Wow, these Legends are looking good (dare I say even Wheelie).
grimmlock:
why aren't cosmo and warpath deluxes or voyagers instead of legends
Christopher-2:
Yay, Idw hot rod! I will be painting the back of it purple to get that comic look. Wheelie? cool, but I'm glad it's not any bigger, because I wouldn't pay any more than the legends price for such an unpopular character.
tusko:
Gotta get 'em all.

Very nice lookin', Warpath is particularly menacing.
Peaugh:
Even in the grainy photo, they look a little better here than in the club mag, although that could just be the angles, especially on Warpath. The release of a tiny Rodimus makes me wonder if they're planning some form of Star Convoy in the future.
ILoveDinobot:
yay a new Roddy to buy!
Rabbit:
Wow. I'm well out of the collecting game but I have to say those are pretty sweet. There's no shortage if Rodimii these days so I can take or leave this one but those minibot 'do-overs' are awesome.

Cause Hasbro says so!!!
This is the 25th Anniversary. They are trying hard to throw us a minibot nostalgia bone.
Poho:
those all look really awesome!

Because they have a budget for Legends that they need to fill, and the budget for Voyagers/Deluxes is full.

So Hasbro decided to be nice and give us updates on the G1 minibots in the Legends size class.
T16skyhopp:
hell yeah minibots
n_tel_ekt:
I would love to see Warpath get the Deluxe treatment.
eriku:
Thanks for the scan! These all look so great. If Kramer, er, Cosmo, er, Cosmos in fact doesn't have hands then I'll have to find a way to install a set of flip-out hands. And i think it's cute that they put that single stabilizer fin on his alt mode since, you know, a flying saucer would really benefit from that.
Eric:
I'm sure that the Cosmo name is a misspelling. It BETTER be. Anyway, they all look great, even Wheelie.
big hank:
Actually I'm a tad disappointed in Cosmos. I was hoping for a bit more updated arms, but still a must have. I don't particularly care for Warpath being an "H" frame tank, but I'm sold here too! I'll grab Wheelie and Roddy for future Legends Stunticon bashes, so I guess I'll say good job Hasbro!

That's a good reason too. Either way, Im not complaining. I'm shocked it wasn't asked why Rodimus is so small. *knows of deluxe*
Razerwire:
I think I've been most surprised at the Classics G1 Legends so far. I was gonna pass on Jazz, Hound, and G2 Megatron but on a whim decided to pick them up.

These things are fantastic.

Yes, they are.

Legends are the new Transformers crack. A suitable replacement for minicons indeed.
MilkManX:
Wow! All four of those look awesome.
SmokescreenWRX:
Not too shabby.

-edit-
Is it just me, or does that lose all its meaning the more you say it?
Bgrngod:
Awesome, Awesome aaaaand... Awesome.

Cosmos, Wheelie and Warpath are all must haves. Rodi... not so much.
Cyber-Kun:
Wow, that Hot Rod looks fantastic! It looks like a mix of IDW's version and Don Fig's concept art

I was gonna pass on them because I didn't really care for Minicons but these to me are just leaps and bounds better than Minicons.
Primus:
Win!
dmc2008:
Wow. The first Legends I've been interested in since... uh, the mid 80s.
All four of em look great!
shibamura_prime:
mmmmm... delicious Legends crack
G1Wheeljack:
All looking very nice, Wheelie looks different than I expected & i thought Rodimus would be a camper van, all buys for me.
Razerwire:
This is our first new incarnations of Wheelie and Cosmos right? I can't recall if there were others since G1.

I think I am very happy with Wheelie since he doesn't look like a little bitch anymore.
wheeljaxx:
wheelie got an injection of bad-assery. passing on these, but still. very cool
Ceerad:
Legends are the new crack.
I can't stop myself.
Ever since Cybertron.

These things blow the doors of of most of the Minicons.
Most of those had goofy bot modes.

Love the G1 Minibot upgrades and the shrunken versions of all the G1, Movie and Cybertron toys.

If it they were calling it Rodimus Prime then yes a space camper/winebago it would have been. But now days Rodimus=Hot Rod.

I'll be buying these.
antapp:
They look a lot better than the previous pics. Looking forward to them.
AngusDF:
Pretty awesome. Makes me wonder why they made Powerglide so big. Perhaps he should be a Legend toy too.
optimusfan:
These may be for poor children, but I'm sold on every one. I like having some TFs I can transform in a matter of seconds, and the recent legends fit that bill very nicely.

i understand they have a budget, but do we really need more repaints of the same models. example. these could have come out instead of dropshot and overload.
blades and springer. starscream and acid storm. we really only needed one mold. i mean they were already repaints as is.

either way yes it's good they give us something. heopfully we can see these in deluxe or bigger in 2009
defstar:
These do look rather good...even Wheelie...

The toy design isn't IDW Hot Rod. As for the purple, IDW stopped colouring him that way ever since Josh made the entire vehicle mode red in Devastation 6.
justamaze:
These are awesome, even Wheelie. I will be getting all of these except maybe rodimus.(too small, should be deluxe or do a voyager size of Rodimus prime)
Peanut04:
Warpath is great. I can't wait for him. The others I'm not sure on.
KanedaX:
We'll see how they look in their finished, non-shiny paintjobs, but right now I'm sold on "Cosmo" and Warpath. Rod's a skip, but Wheelie might be tempting.
Liege Prime:
All buys. Warpath= best legends ever. It looks like he may be one of the first ever to have articulated elbows. (I know Leo Breaker did to)
RodimusDawg:
So which minibots are getting a production, Brawn, Wheelie,Warpath, and Cosmos so far right? I think I am missing one thou.

These will be the first Legends figures I will be buying since I feel they are in scale with the Classics universe line. Now if only Powerglide would have a legends figure I wouldn't even bother with getting the Ultra.

new legends molds have to be made.

after powerglide, people have wanted Mini-Bots to remain Mini-Bot sized.
Pasaway:
Warpath and Wheelie = YES
never was interested in cosmos, and not feeling that rodi, just doesn't look right to me.
Darkspeed:
A quick rundown:

Rodimus: Want. The closest we'll be getting to a IDW-verse Hot Rod, which to me is the best redesign they came up with for the comics! Love both modes!

Warpath: Want again, but it's a crime he isn't at least one class size up! A nice inventive update of the character, looks like it could be fun to transform him.

Wheelie: Nice new alt. mode for him, and the robot mode looks suprisingly cool! Want to see more pictures soon!

Cosmos: WTF? Frisbeebot? I don't see the appeal on spending a couple of bucks on a bot that turns into a dinner plate...
Devastattor:
Anyone else get the feeling lately that Hasbro finally unplugged their heads from their hind ends and decided that they could make Legends class figures desirable? Most, if not all, of the Classics 2.0/Universe Legends class are pretty damn good. I’ve NEVER purchased a Legends figure in the past but Megatron, Hound, and these guys are pretty impressive, especially given the Legends of days gone by.
