    But now that I think about it, where does she keep all that spider butt in robot mode?o_O 

    Edit: I think the spider butt (sorry, I don't know the proper term) becomes her upper body.

    Haha, I feel the exact opposite! I have no interest in a clear Jazz, but will probably end up getting that Shockwave. If it were a two-pack, we could have split it.

    This is very helpful, as I don't keep track of every Legends figure. It stands to reason I won't know when certain ones release.
    Thank you.

    Thanks.

    Good deal.

    I'm happy to see a few BW Legends coming down the line. I'm really hoping some company gets around to doing some other non-G1 Legends. The Galaxy Force cast in Legends+ would be fan-freakin-tastic. It's a shame the old Legends of Cybertron versions were so lacking in the posability department.

    I would be cool to get the Unicron trilogy in legends scale.

    Right? I'd love to see characters from all three series tackled as small figures with a focus on posability and appearance instead of electronics and line wide gimmickery. Offer me an Armada Prime where the cab is about the size of Hot Soldiers Optimus and the trailer turns into, well, pants, but they're actually posable because the electronics aren't needed. That would be excellent.

    At least Unicron and Primus would look good with them

    I personally think it's damn near impossible to have a Unicron or Primus that would properly scale with Transformers figures of any size. Hell, I think Metroplex's media depictions are too large for him to scale with any non-city characters. Trypticon, Scorponok, Fortmax and Omega Supreme all had wildly different scales in the comics compared to the TV show, so smaller figures of them makes sense. Metroplex though? Short of building a figure the size of a large bookcase, nothing would ever truly get it right.

    But I mean, they're toy robots appearing in comics and cartoons designed to sell figures. How important scale is to any of us is nothing more than our own personal preferences.

    Well yeah scale would still be off of course but would look better than the full sized figures

    I hope NA does a Mirage. They seem to like the transparent variants and Mirage would benefit from one especially. Easy money for a double dip on him. I hope they Have one planned. Surprised Iron Factory hasn’t done one for Phantom (mirage) yet.

    Don't bring IF on ideas that will delay their already planned figures much more.

    I would guess there will be an announcement this summer, IF seems to like announce one surprise release mid-year.
    Or as one of their convention exclusives like Acidstorm, G2 Sideswipe or Nightbird.

    I guess they could go make it a bonus figure like Elita-1 or Combiner Hunter Arcee.
