    I normally use legion and legends interchangeably, but I just meant around that general area of figures

    I'll be swinging through the big bookstores when I'm nearby to look for this. Might get two or three actually -- gifts for kids, and one for me of course.

    The RID2015 Warrior class also has the instructions on the card. I'm thinking these are gonna be kinda RID-like.

    Are we 100% sure theses designs are going to be the ones from cyberverse?

    I really like how this Bumblebee have wings:) . Shame that he isn't beetle car anymore, but that's good alternative to have his appearance related to his name. I mostly appreciate how they made him cute again*-* after Bay movies turned him into boring generic autobot-_-.

    I agree, though I wish they redsign Soundwave alt mode...I know he can't be cassette player anymore, but come on, he deserve better then some boring car:mad .

    The RID2015 Warrior Class had the same instructions on the back of the box too, if I recall correctly, but you are right it may be legion class instead of Voyager or something.

    We're more like 75% sure at this point. We don't know why else they would make toys for these designs, and Grimlock's came out of nowhere.

    Got one yesterday. The figurines are...well...kinda decent.

    Not saying it's a waste of money, I actually liked the figurines, it's just that you need some skills to give them good touch-up work/paint detail repairing.

    We know exactly why they've make toys of these designs: they were created to go on all these kinds of random ancillary merchandise that was previously using random reused Generations packaging art and stuff. And made-for-dollar-store toys definitely fall under 'random ancillary merchandise'.

    The guy who created these designs for Hasbro, Emiliano Santalucia, has specifically referred to them as "evergreen designs" - they're not connected to any specific media franchise.

    I posted this nearly a month ago with not as much knowledge as we have now. I have no idea why you quoted this old of a post with the knowledge we have now. None of us knew as much as we do now.

    Even though it still can be possible for this to have connections to Cyberverse but it’s extremely unlikely at this point.

    I got one the other day and I'm still chuffed with it, which must be a good sign as I'm normally a fickle old fart that loses interest quickly. I like how Soundwave has a communications dish in both modes. It's a neat addition to his traditional design. Bumblebee is obviously the best figure in this pack. I could see these things turning up in other products like those vending machine eggs or as cheap keyrings or covermounted on TF comics, which happens a lot over here in Blighty.

    Quite a few people I've shown this book set to have expressed an interest in buying one, especially at the £6 price they are here. Pretty good play value for the small price. They'd work great with stuff like the Titans Return base modes. Or just build a playset out of Lego.

    I wish there were more of these book sets for TF series. Gimme a Beast Wars one.

    I Picked them up in Sainsbury's they are quite nice.

    But there was some on the shelf with errors (one had two Rodimus car modes and no Bumblebee robot mode) so I recommend you check before you buy.
