Even with th upcoming new moulds of Jazz and Hound? | Yup, even with the new molds. All of them have awful looking 'bot modes and they just look cheap, like plastic Go-bots. I just can't justify buying them.
Cyber_Tronian:
"Awfully disgusting waste of time and money" sums it up for me.

But I agree, the legends have been going slowly downhill since Cyb Defense Red Alert. I still think Jazz and Hound look awsome. (Hound looks like he stepped right out of the cartoon, only with wheels)
Kimmer:
these legends are great. they'll be saving me some cash whch is always a plus.
Fosterlager:
I'm waiting for Beachcomber and Brawn.
justamaze:
I like Legends class but don't own any. I was tempted with soundwave cybertron and movie blackout, but have'nt picked them up yet. Probably better that I didn't cause then I'd want them all.

(Hound looks like he stepped right out of the cartoon, only with wheels) | I never owned a lot of gobots, but I do remember a lot of metal in them. Maybe it was just the ones I had.
Obvious Prime:
I love these little things. More fodder for Legends Trypticon. Railguard: Quote:

That would be sooo cool if that was true!!!

Both will be in the legends class as well, though.
Laser_Optimus:
These look... okay for molds that have been repainted a gazillion times now. Still, I'm glade I don't collect these guys as it saves me some money. Though I do wish for them to repaint these figures larger counterparts like they've done to some of these... I mean, Cybertron Sunstorm from Cybertron Voyager Starscream would just be pure awesome.

Liege Prime:
I actually really liked the legends line, I just find the repaints next to useless. I do like this mold for seekers though but I would probably pass. The new molds I'll be picking up though.
Bass X0:
Will probably end up getting these just because they exist.
Jarodimus:
I'll get Starscream... and maybe Red Alert. Pretty sure Onslaught's a pass, though.
But new Legends molds = yes please. Quote:

If you're getting the Legends Leaders pack then you should get Onslaught too.
bhaalistik:
Hmmm...I just don't see the attraction for these; it must be the old fart in me, because I can see why little kids (like my 4 year old) would like them...but me personally...PASS
butz:
I think I actually want these... but Legends Onslaught is a definite pass.

He looks nothing like the G1 version. (To fit in with the 5-pack, G1 slavishness would be the goal.) Heck, if it were yet another use of the Cyb OP mold in blue, olive, and gray, I'd probably bite.
But CDRA in gray and indigo? Even at $4, I don't like the mold enough to triple-dip, especially on a fudged-up homage. If he didn't have the SWAT deco (like Ultra Onslaught), I'd think he was originally intended to be another character entirely.

I agree. I REALLY hope TakTomy releases a more G1-slavish one in henkei. Universe Onlsaught make me sad, 'cause G1 'Slaught was my favorite combiner dude. | | Tools and Information | | | | | | | Official Images of Universe (Classics 2.0) Legends Red Alert and Starscream - Transformers News.
