    OMG they are powermasters like Dai atlas? My favorite G1 era outside of cartoon are micromasters

    Way to go for Takara to make the jumpmasters Powered masters and key characters in the Legend world :)

    I was about to post it :) 


    And seeing the end.... it is not over yet for Legends :) 
    We know at least 2 more comics are coming out with greatshot and maximus.

    Still so great they made them powered masters like dai atlas and sonic bomber, with a base mode and a combined mode :D

    Takara basicly took 2 unused characters in their timeline and made them in a single shot:
    - jumpmasters
    - headmasters
    - targetmasters
    - powered masters and thanks to this, combiners and triplechangers (3rd base mode)

    Well played

    Nope, they’re only featured in a story that’s at least in the discussion for best piece of Transformers fiction of all time. A western piece of fiction.

    Plus, who cares if a tie-in comic just throws a bunch of gimmicks at them?

    They took relatively obscure non toon characters and bumped the Jumstarter twins several leagues and power ups in just one single shot. Boy talk about making up for inadequecies! :lolol :

    Well I have to work all day from 10am to 9pm, so I won’t be seeing these guys til Sunday. Which is to say Fire Convoy, Grand Maximus, Great shot as well as Badcube Huff and Pipes.

    But I don’t feel sad about it. They’ll eventually get here.

    Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit.

    And this comes from a hardcore TT fan. There is no was this costs more to make (re-make) than MP 36. No way in hell.

    I wish I could find an Encore God Fire Convoy under $200 so I could import it to Peru.

    Reading a bunch of Japanese tweets, it seems like Fire Convoy has a very common QC issue where the right ankle is quite badly warped and won't sit flush in vehicle mode. Considering the price and size of the set, that's very disconcerting. Here's hoping it's just a certain batch and not every one of them.

    Looks like that bullshit QC issue is getting pretty wide spread. Better make sure I open mine first thing in the morning. Oh how sad.
