    Cyber Geek posted, comparison to the 3rd party...
    Yikes

    1 got the likeness of the character, 1 didn't. I would be willing to pay 10 to 20 bucks to get a good head for Swerve. Because I am only spending 10 on the toy in the first place.

    MTMTE Swerve has tingled the inner chatter-box, bartender, shooting-deficient, quest-loving, bot within me.

    Swerve looks perfect even though he's just a scout. I've got the generations Swerve that was a repaint of Kup but this will replace him

    Me too. I didn't pick up the scout sized Generations Optimus and Starscream but I'm more excited for this figure. I loved Swerve in More than Meets the Eye. It's the only version of the character I remember

    That does look great! Hasbro would be crazy if they don't do a Gears repaint!

    It's worth pointing out that the iGear Swerve wasn't intended to be MTMTE Swerve, it's intended to be an updated G1 Swerve. :) 

    There is a MakeToys MTMTE Swerve coming out at some point.

    That's upsetting news for me .so new legends will keep coming out and brick and morter stores wont carry them.

    Question:
    Even if these don't make it to a bunch of stores, isn't it still possible online shops like BBTS or even Amazon.com could have them?

    Yeah. Amazon, HTS, BBTS, just about any online store that carries hasbro TFs should have it.

    Swerve's targetmaster shouldve been Rung.

    No! While it'd be funny, and might be the best shot of getting a Rung that turns into a non-vehicle that Hasbro could just pretend is a "space skateboard" or something, he'd be even tinier than Swerve, who's already extremely tiny!

    ...I'd have preferred he come with My First Blaster that turns into a little robot... no vehicle mode necessary. Or even a robot mode. He should've just come with My First Blaster, period. :p

    I know absolutely nothing about MTME, but this figure looks absolutely fantastic. Love how much character it has.

    That's weird and unfortunate. Unless the Legends two-packs can go on the same pegs as the "data disc" bots, it seems like Target will be the main store in my area for them.

    Big Lots does seem to be an option, though, as the one near me currently has Megatron and Starscream. And that's something. *shrug*

    This. Target will be your best bet for the Generations Legends two packs.
