And there's Cosmos. Just a delay indeed. And a surprise guest in Shrap... Skrapnel...? Or is that supposed to be Sharpshot? Well, whatever, we know who he's supposed to be. All that's left until the next unseen waves is Tailgate.

Once again, I was under the assumption that these were going to be scout sized when they revealeed them at Botcon. I already got a Legends Cosmos. If they would have made this one in scout or small deluxe class, I would have been very happy. But Igear Cosmos still reigns supreme due to a better scale. As cool as Shrapnel is, I have little interest in him because the Insecticons are new "seekers". You will never get all three in one scale or figure line. Fansproject did it. Why not Hasbro ?

cosmos looks awesome but shrapnel on the other hand is horrible, but at least they tried to give him his name. Ill probably throw cosmos on the buy 1 get 1 50% off/coupon list.

Both of these are fantastic... though I'm not really sure what Reflector changes into there. Heh.

Would love to troop build these bugs... but I do SINCERELY hope they release "Hardshell" and Kickback at this size. Will be really miffed otherwise.

...Skrapnel? HASBRO! Y U DO THAT?! >_< As for his partner Reflector, I do love that it turns into a camera. The robot mode looks nice, too. It's weapon mode that ruins it. As for Kickback, himself (I refuse to call it Skrapnel), he looks quite good. If they end up making all three Insecticons, they've won me over.

Cosmos, on the other hand, OH YES PLEASE. He looks amazing! I love that these guys are small enough to work well with Metroplex. Which leads me to a problem. Hasbro's found a way to exploit my plastic crack addiction. I had no intention of buying this Class of figures and then I saw Bumblebee on clearance at Wal*Mart and put him in one of the control areas on Metroplex and he fit so perfectly. It blew my mind and made my wallet cry. Now, I'm trying so hard not to buy these but they look so good.

...so good.

-_- Hasbro, I could sucker punch you in the kidneys right now. My poor wallet hates you.

I thought Swerve and Cosmos were going to be scout sized. :-(

Igear wins this round.


You didn't really have any reason to think that, considering we always knew they were Legends and had their little partners, making them the same size as the Optimus, BB, SS and Megs that were previously in the line.

That said, these figures are bigger than Legion and a bit smaller than Commander, so that would put them a bit under Scout size (which in turn is a little bigger than a Commander).

Here's a pretty good picture for their scale.

For me thats G1 toy scale. The mini bots were only "mini" as a gimmick to sell toys to kids with cheap parents. Legends class is the same concept. But having figures that stand up to Primes kneecaps is rather silly looking in my opinion. Scout class just makes more sense from a G1 cartoon perspective. Hasbro Windcharger was the perfect scale. The picture shown here was taken at an angle looking down slightly to make Prime seem shorter so the Legends Bee doesnt look so small.

That's not Kickback, It's Shrapnel, hence the new name. Trademark on SHRAPNEL was lost, so they first went with sharpshot as a replacement, but now it seems somebody with a creative yet simple approach has entered the building, hence the clever use of SKRAPNEL :D

These make me happy and un-regret my decision to not purchase the previous Legends Cosmos figure. :D

Though already owning Cosmos ver.2, this one looks less stubby like a downsized Scourge. nice! Shrapnel too! Instant buy! I hope the other 3 Insecticons get this same make over.

This.

Reason why my recent pick ups were all from the EZ collections line. I really hate Tomy/Hasbro. :lol:

Guessing you meant SCROUNGE... the lil yellow guy?

As for naming, of course Hasbro has to pay dough to keep those trademarks, so it's no surprise some get lost over the years. I can ignore that and call them the old name in my own home.

Also no surprise they let violent or weapon related names expire. If you can't say the toys name walking through an airport or public school, then it's probably a candidate to be changed. (Speaking of Hardshell's old name here.)

Nope. I really meant the new "wing" Scourge form and not the flying G1 bathtub. Take a look at his legs.

Btw, what a coincidence......old Takara catalogs designated Scourge as a UFO too. And your mentioning Blaster's buddy in Marvel TF#17 and 18 story line just gave Hasbro an excuse for a repaint. So should royalties be in the pipeline? :lol:

I'm in line with your thinking. :BOWDOWN: Why not do a 3-pack of the insecticons, a la FansProject? :HEADHURTS:
Personally, I think Cosmos should be between iGear and Hasbro's new scale... scout would be nice. Still, anyone who complains about Cosmos has not had the pleasure of touching the iGear model - it's damn near perfect. I wouldn't really expect Hasbro's version to approach it, and in that respect, this new Cosmos looks a little wonky to me. His legs and arms just seem off... and the long torso, too. >:oP

Agreed again! :APPLAUSE: I saw the Windcharger in that pic and died a little inside. Cause, to me, it's one of the best size classes of TF's, including cool alt modes and relatively simple transformations. It just killed me the day I went to the toy store and realized Hasbro had unceremoniously put a bullet in the Scout's head! :sad:

A flying saucer paired with a Space Shuttle, I love it!

I wish Shrapnel came with Chop Shop instead, mostly since I really don't want a Megatron or Reflector, but also because Stag Beetle Duo > Stag Beetle and... a Camera.

For what these are, I really like the look of them.

Seeing them both makes me want to go back and get BB, IDW Optimus, Megatron, and Starscream.

What's with all the mistransformations on the Skrapnel pics. #-o

I've long given up on trying to get figures in scale with each other so I'm perfectly happy of pairing Skrapnel with FOC Kickback. All I need now is Bombshell. I tried using Prime Hardshell but his aesthetic is too different to work.

I would totally give Chop Shop to Skrapnel and Reflector to Megatron.

But Reflector is designed to transform into Shrapnel's old gun.
