    I love this too because now they can get somewhat ahead of figure leaks

    Awwww, damn. I would have liked RID 2001 Prime. Though I admit, if they do RID 2001 Prime and don't do Ultramagnus that would suck as well.

    Again. Dark Amber is based on Takara's original Nemesis Leo toy. But said toy didn't match the character it was supposed to be on screen.

    The Legacy Nemesis Leo is going to match the cartoon coloration.

    Dark Amber Leo = Black fur + grey mane.

    Nemesis Leo/Copy Convoy = Grey fur + black mane.

    My favorite part of the livestream was when they confirmed repaints of the Junkions will happen.

    Also, Axelgrease is totally going to be that Lockdown-looking Junkion.

    I mean, his name is even similar to Axor/Axer who was a Lockdown repaint last time.

    Wasn’t Siege Magnus based on RID 2001 Magnus?

    Alt yes, bot no.

    Yep. This is exactly what I told people would be the most likely outcome if they wanted Hasbro to get out ahead of leaks. And odds are it won't really change anything since they didn't show figures. But now that Legacy is reaching in to all ends of the universe, this kind of thing will be useful if there's lists of names leaking and people aren't sure which version of a character it is.

    Happy to get a Shrapnel, though it looked okay but not spectacular. Checks the boxes but not much hype about it.

    I wonder if the reissue of ER Dirge is going to differ from the previous release in some way... why would they not just show the previous figure otherwise?

    Core class Dinobots just don't do it for me. Was hoping for SS86 Snarl and/or Swoop reveal. :( 

    Liking the Junkions but they're not 'must gets' for me.

    Lots of YouTuber commenters complaining about lack of Titan Nemesis reveal.

    I don't usually collect movie figures but I do have to admit Airrazor and Scourge look really cool.

    Metalhawk looks ok -- but to me it's another one of those retools that begs the question of why not just make it a whole new figure? Most of the parts look different to me -- just the shoulders look like Cyclonus's.... but they are clearly Cyclonus's... so just why?

    Twincast is as expected but annoyed that his chest isn't clear red, even if that meant that Rewind would have had to be clear red. Maybe he could have been Flip Sides or Rosanna?

    So they don’t do early pre-order windows for premium members anymore?

    I mean, they did kinda call out those weirdos that want Pretenders to be accurate despite of how impossible or worthless it would be.

    Yeah Mark's comment of "Who will that look like?" definitely sealed it being a Lockdown pretool for me.

    They do. Come 1pm it'll be open, then at 2 it'll be open for everyone. Generally that's how they do it.
