Seibertron member BERSEKAEL dropped us an email while on a trip around Europe showing us an image of a black Autobot symbol wearing Legion Class Bumblebee variant. This little guy was found at a Tesco supermarket in Slovack Republic. We are also seeing reports of this variant hitting Dollar Stores in the Untited States.

Isn't that the common one? I've seen them all over Ireland.

that was the one all over my TRU too. I'm guessing it's an unintentional "Memorial Bee" following the events of the IDW comics.

The US version has a red symbol instead of black:

Saw these in Smyths and Argos on Friday.

If they're gonna keep putting out that Legends Starscream, could they at least put out a Skywarp already.

Actually, a multipack of seekers would be superb. Even if the wings aren't altered, the fact that you can make these figures into coneheads yourself is enough for me.

i like that they're labelled FIGURKY on the shelves, because at those prices, you're gonna need some lubrication.

These again? I have them all already

This is a variant? It's the only version I've seen so far.
I'm more concerned about the fact the back of the packages tell you there are rubsigns where there aren't. They're just re-using the RTS stock graphics, even though that Bumblebee wasn't in RTS in that colour scheme.
I'm guessing it's more a running change than a variant...

Anybody spotted these in Canada yet? Wouldn't mind getting my hands on that Starscream.

I really, REALLY love that packaging. I may sound ridiculous, but I want one of these just to keep sealed. (I already have all of them, older version, open and played with.)

Can't they release some of the other Universe legends, instead of just the Reveal the Shield ones.

There's also an Optimus variant
One version has the Autobot symbol on his left shoulder while the other doesn't.

Yes, is a unique find, if you eee it around, you might have items coming from UK as well.

The picture is the backside on the packing

Interesting these aren't even the new legend figures.. Might need to pick them up since I don't have any of them

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:

Skywarp...finally.

by **RiddlerJ** » Fri Apr 03, 2015 7:00 pm

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

News Credits: 331 · by **chuckdawg1999** » Fri Apr 03, 2015 7:09 pm

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.
