    So now Magic Square specifically made a Bumblebee that shrinks to fit in someone's Newage collection instead of the NA version. I hope they both get fiercely competitive about doing the rest of the season 1 cars now.

    If that leads to figures that look like the NA datsuns, but with the height of IF / MS carbots then I'm all for it

    I was all for the competition anyway as it leads to more option, that way people can pick what they like most

    Like, I was literally on the cusp of buying a second hand MS ultra magnus when NA announced their version, so now I'm waiting for that instead

    Hope you don't mind a quick question, folks.

    Any suggestion about where to buy clear Autobot/Decepticon stickers for Legends figures? I previously tried jia_8941 on eBay, which was bittersweet: aside from the fact the store sent me the wrong sets (with white outlines... Not an issue tho, as they were kind enough to offer a refund, plus I'm using them anyway), they got hit by customs, and I ended up paying more for that than the item itself lol.

    Thanks in advance!

    Awesome, thank you. Ordered two sets, as they come pretty cheap.
    Looking forward to upgrade the insignia of a few figures in my collection (Megatron, Grapple, possibly the Seekers and the Coneheads too, if the larger size is large enough...), as well as getting ready for upcoming releases (MST Bee and Prowl).

    Thanks again buddy. ^_-

    Edit - Also added in a couple of sets from @bababobo00712 (through eBay), as they had a fancy white-outlined, clear Autobot symbol I wanted to try for my MST Prime.

    I'm just now realizing that on NA bee 2.0 you can have accurate symbol placement for both modes because of the Transformation

    I won't be putting a symbol on the bonet myself, but it's nice that that's possible for those who like that level of accurate detail

    Been a minute since I have posted but wanted to share my legends display that I reworked.

    Impressive! I love all those blast effects, they do really add a lot, in terms of dramatic action.

    Also, your display makes me want Magic Square to do some Titans (also bigger dudes like Jetfire) so badly.

    Hey all, I'm looking for legends scale combiners, who exists out there? Devestator, Computron, superion, menasor, abonimus, bruticus, defensor, predaking, etc. What legends scale combiners have been made? Thanks!

    To the best of my knowledge, not many are out as of yet. Of what’s been released though, DX9 did a Devastator years back, Iron Factory has done a Bruticus, a Baldigus repaint of that, and their own DJD combiner. All of IF offerings are pretty expensive of the aftermarket. New age and Magic Square have announced a Mensaor, but only MS is on track to release that set anytime soon. Also Zeta(?) has announced a legends scale Superion. Anyone feel free to add if I’ve missed anything.

    The old fansproject upgrade for bruticus and Superion are roughly legends scale

    I think mastermade has an upcoming devastator in the works as well

    Tfc showed a downsized prototype of Hercules, but I don't know if anything came of that

    There are smaller old 3P chug scale combiners that can work with legends if you are of the mindset that combiners should be gestalts...

    Here are some CHUG combiners. Of course they aren't legends figures when uncombined

    Legends folks, is there anything good which is Beast Wars related?
    I've read posts and watched videos about Transform Element Rattrap and Blackarachnia - plus a Toyworld Megatron I believe? - but none of them seems to be especially well-regarded.

    Anything else (or better) around, or coming up, worth checking out?
    Thanks in advance! ^_-

    Blackarachnia is the only one I have. It's decent enough, just a bit pricey. If they ever release the new spider legs it would vastly improve it.
