Seibertron member Cr33per sent us a nice picture of a couple new legion class figures he found at Big Lots in Yakima, WA. Strafe is a redeco of Beast Hunters Windrazor while G2 Tank Megatron which looks like a re-release of the Universe 2.0 Legends Class Megatron perhaps maybe with a different shade of plastic and paint. Also included with this wave but not pictured is Grimlock which is a redeco of Beast Hunters Legion Rippersnapper. Grimlock sports a different deco than the Walmart exclusive figure that uses the same mold.

If you have your own store sighting of new figures you want to share with the rest of the world, send an email to sightings@seibertron.com and you too can be featured in the news section.

Interesting choice to release a new deco of G2 Megatron, but far be it from me to complain, I love Megs' G2 form.

Windrazor redoced as Strafe = perfect!

Still waiting to see images of the Walmart legion figures for Hound and Lockdown, though...

Didn't even know we were expecting these; nor Hound and Lockdown!

Strafe is MINE. Dang that's awesome.

Interesting artwork choices: Megs is using his Legends atwork. Glad to see more Terrorcon fodder!

Both look good, I hope the rerelease more of the Universe Legends.

I hope I can pick up Strafe...all I need is another leg (already have Legion Grimlock) and a repaint of Hun-Grrr and I'll have a repainted Abominus Autobot combiner with Strafe and Divebomb as arms.

I'll have to be on the lookout for these. Quite easy, as they're general retail in Europe instead of exclusive to Liquidator and Dollar Stores

I'd have been all over the AOE legions figures because I love Cyberverse stuff, but the fact that they're all repaints of existing figures that look nothing like their movie counterparts made these all an instant pass. I guess they thought they were too small for us to be able to notice the difference. :lol:

Hound and Lockdown were on that leaked product list from last year or whenever. Literally no other information has come out about them.

I saw a bunch of those Legends in new packaging in Michigan. Bumblebee, Optimus, Starscream, Megatron. Not sure if they've been reported on
