Looks like this company will be doing legend sized FOC figures to display with your Metroplex .

Neat, but unnecessary given the new Generations Legends figures?

If these sport a considerable amount of additional articulation, I would consider them (especially since I'm thinking about Iron Factory's Sixgun & Slammer mini-bots).

Ah, this is a new trend: take existing figures and shrink them to be in "scale" with Metroplex. I agree with megatronus. We seem to have a great stable of legends size figures right now. Plus, while these would definitely be easier on the wallet than other figures I have my eye on, it'll still be pricey for what they are...

Not sure why their first offering are Seekers. Wouldn't it make more sense if it were a more scale-accurate Optimus Prime?

The idea is appreciated, but I feel that they should've gone with Optimus first.

First prototype. Hope y'all like it.

It looks pretty good so far ..But whats the price for a figure this size ?

I'm a little concerned that this is a shrunken down KO of the deluxe mold. It's making me a little queasy...

nah looks like the nose cone doesn't fold up in bot mode so it's not just a shrunken down KO. I think...

Okay, that's new. I like it for a pre-earth Cybertronian mode Ironhide... :APPLAUSE:

When I saw that Red Bot, I thought it was Cliffjumper. Think, That Alt mode doesn't seem powerful enough for Ironhide.

It's based off WFC Ironhide .

Hey Guys. Slight update with Sky Snake's Weapon.

When I saw it, and it looked like FOC Ironhide I thought it was Ironhide. Think. These are toy designs based off the game designs, so we've got a pretty good idea what the different characters will look like.

Really liking Sky Snake. Hope we get some production shots soon.

update on SS-02 HM

These are looking really cool! Might end up snagging some if there's Soundwave or Dinobots! Wouldn't mind seeing a screen-accurate Skywarp either.

Good things come in.... Twos??

News Credits: 119 · by **megatronus** » Sat May 24, 2014 2:35 pm

These are actually looking pretty cool. If the price is right, I might pick them up.

Interesting that there are so few 3rd Parties catering to Legends collectors at the moment, especially since the trend has been to push the envelope on larger sized figures. Legends might be the next frontier for 3rd Parties...

A small homage to Fall of Cybertron's first trailer, in which Ironhide decks Starscream in the jaw?

Also, anyone notice that one of Ironhide's cannons are modeled after the A4 Pulsar Cannon?
