They're cute.

Don't like Jazz's transformation - they really are cheating by giving him two frontends. I've never seen a Solstice with a grill and headlights on the roof... you can't do that. That's dishonest.

Even though these all look like turd Im still going to bid on Jazz and Barricade... why the heck is Ratchet actually green instead of some sketchy lumious puke yellow? FAIL.

Pros - new Legends moulds. About freakin' time.
Cons - these suck the big one.

More Movie stuff I'll pass on.

Transformers the Movie Happy Meal toys again. From all the TFTM stuff so far, only the 1% is Ok, the rest is crap in its more pure form.

They all suck...but hey, I'm a big Bumblebee fan, so I'll get him.

who gets the legends line a waiste of money

Meh...not impressed, but I never did like the smaller Legends class figures. Musch prefer the larger, more detailed figures.

This Bumblebee looks more Bumblebeeish than the others, and Barricade I like at any size... The other two look kinda meh, but okay for four bucks.

Well, thy aint the best, but they aint the worst either.

I can see me getting them, but I can't see me rushing to do so.

by **Nemesis_Apoc** » Thu Feb 01, 2007 8:36 pm

well, I dig'em!

That Ratchet's just like the larger version: the mold rocks but the deco sucks. That's all the complaining I'm gonna do.

Bumblebee looks like a remould of Sparkplug from Armada. It's clearly not, it just looks like Prime's mini-con.

Aside from Ratchet's deco, they're all pretty cool.

Poor Jazz. He doesn't quite live up to his motto.

"Do it in style or don't do it at all."

Bumblebee and Barricade=awesome

Ratchet=meh

Jazz=words can't begin to describe what a disappointment he is. Robot mode looks killer, alt mode has a grill and head lights on the roof, BOO! :-x

Oh my, those are really, really bad. Agree, more movie stuff I'll pass on. They are certainly abusing the TF name horribly with all this crappy merchandise. But, what can we expect? It all started when they abused the name to create a sci-fi movie to begin with.

My guess would be that these are not retail items, but Happy Meal toys for distribution during the launch campaign. It's likely that McDonalds or Buger King already have the rights to the promotion, and have begun manufacturing the toys.

Hate to burst your bubble there, but the "Legends" line is for retail. That's what these are.
