3 new listings for Classics Legion Line: Ultra Magnus, Skywarp and Cliffjumper

Posted by william-james88 Apr 3, 2015 at 3:58pm CDT 30,565 views
Japanese retailer Red Mercury has posted listings of 3 new toys part of the "Classic Legion Class" line which started last year, consisting of redecos of previously released legends molds. The three new toys are:

Ultra Magnus
Cliffjumper
Skywarp

Since the line so far has an Optimus Prime, Bumblebee and Starscream (pictured below), it could be that these are the same molds used for these new toys.

A white Prime? Red Bumblebee? Black Starscream? Gimme! Hopefully they'll appear just before I leave for the U.S..... :PRAY:

But I thought they were coming out with a Skywarp repaint of the larger Legends Starscream.

Let's see, I have the original Prime, Motorbreath, and a clear one released for AOE; looks like I'll be getting a white one now. If Skywarp comes with the null rays I just might be inclined to pick up a Starscream so I have a proper set.

They are. These are different lines for different markets, why can't they each get a skywarp?

So sick of seeing these characters over and over again... would rather have those slots given to characters that could use the update.

Why would you consider these updates? These are 5 year old molds marketed at dollar store chains in the states. They probably wont see a mass retail release at big box stores as was the case with the previous releases.

Repaints. How surprising. (I'm being sarcastic.)

I wonder if there will be a way to jam that (hypothetical) Ultra Magnus into the Leader UM. That's got to be the best option, right? I mean, totally ridiculous to have a white semi-truck inside another white semi-truck... but doable.

Chronicle EZ Collection Skywarp

This will be their first US releases, sporting the mold tweaks (holes in the wings for Skywarp, extra pegs for Cliffjumper) so they can told apart.

Extra pegs? I must've missed something, what were the extra pegs for on Bumblebee?

This minor retool stems from the 2012 single release, and is easily missed. The pegs are located in the arms where the elbow would be, and are for locking the Vehicle Mode together better. Works too well if you ask me, once I transform him the arms won't unpeg anymore. :lol:

Saw the original character versions of these shelfwarming at Big Lots about a month ago. I think they had the Bee with the black symbol, but really didn't pay much attention since I already had some version (or two) of each.

A fellow TF fan hurricane567, on the TFW boards, found the recently listed Generations Legions Ultra Magnus and Skywarp at Fred's in south Louisianna. He also took pictures to show us fans the deco. As predicted Ultra Magnus and Skywarp are based on their RTS Molds. Generations Legion Skywarp is not to be confused with Generations Legends Skywarp which also comes out this year and is a slightly bigger size, more akin to that of a scout class figure.

I thought Skywarp was Dirge for a second, until I realized that I was looking at both his head and his back simultaneously rather than separating the two.
Hopefully when I have a chance to buy these, the paint won't wear easily as some of my recently bought figures.

I'm all over these like white on Prime. :-P

I like that UM's wheels are white.
Was there ever a Thundercracker deco of this seeker mold?
