Wasn't it based on the Megatron design from the Dreamwave Transformers/G.I. Joe crossover that was set in World War II?

I will definately get this guy. A Transformers/GI Joe crossover toy you don't have to pay out the ass to the club for? Sign me up.

I kind of want a Viper, as a parallel Earth Powerglide.

Or as a Powerglide that's been repurposed by Cobra; sorta like that mini-series.

But I don't know if I'll get one.

The bio implied the WWII crossover comics, but his actual design was pretty different looking and didn't sport those purple colors, more G1 colors. (when they showed color)

Seibertron.com is proud to present the gallery for Transformers Combiner Wars Legends Class Warpath. This little guy is a retool of the Generations Legends Class Megatron. The retool in this case is a new Warpath head sculpt. Warpath can be found in Combiner Wars Wave 3 alongside Viper. Being a retool of Megatron, Warpath lacks his iconic chest turret but sports a nice arm cannon. You can compare this figure to the previous Legends Class Warpath from the 2008 Universe line here or his original G1 incarnation here. Click on any of the images to see the full gallery.

If anything, these new galleries remind me just how dope Deluxe Warpath is. I don't own the "Megapath" mold. I do like the Warpath deco better, I think its just more consistent than the Megatron release. Is this mold worth picking up?

He fits in great with the scale of legends class figures. I got him to take the place of my deluxe size one,and am still happy about my choice.

I think this is a great Warpath. Would I have liked it to have the more traditional chest cannon? You bet! Was I disappointed when this was first announced? Yep.

But I was pleasantly surprised once I had this in hand. I really felt like I was photographing Warpath. I think it was his head that really did it for me. That and the fantastic color that stayed relatively true to the colors I expect a Warpath toy to have. If we didn't have the deluxe figure (who still needs a hand gun by the way), I'd be extremely disappointed with this. However, I've already got a couple of Warpath toys that I already like so I like this different interpretation of him.

My only regret with this gallery is that I missed an opportunity to sneak in the Bot Shots Warpath gallery finally and include him in the comparison shots. One day!

Take away the boobcannon and take away the Warpathiness! Beyond that-he looks pretty good. Better than I expected.

Do these figures (Warpath, Huffer) give anyone else a Asia Premium vibe? I really like these. Maybe its just my rose colored glasses 8-}

News Credits: 462 · Thu Jun 04, 2015 9:50 am

Well, one thing's for sure. This is the first Warpath to have the most cartoon-accurate shade of red. All the others are either too bright or too toy-accurate. This one's red is the darkest shade yet, making it the most show-accurate shade.

Can you deal with latest addition to the Seibertron.com galleries? Feast your optics on the four-in-one plastic monument to one of the mainstays of the Transformers: Leader Class Ultra Magnus, with Minimus Ambus! An all new mold, Ultra Magnus is based on the IDW Publishing comics design by Nick Roche and Alex Milne, with some additional Andrew Griffith touches, merging elements of Animated, MTMTE, Dreamwave and G1!

The ex-Enforcer of the Tyrest Accord boasts all sorts of accessories. Removable missile launchers that become a hammer, two separate weapons, and the ghost bot in the machine, Minimus Ambus himself, who converts from moustached robot to Cybertronian vehicle, and sits in the chest compartment of the Magnus armour (probably writing poetry and keeping it tidy). Click on any image below to view the full galleries, and make sure to check out the plastic rendition of the 1986 movie poster!

Sweet Primus I love this Magnus. I cannot say it enough! And as a comic reader, I love the Minimus Ambus figure. Great job Hasbro!

That picture takes the cake, really. This is a really cool gallery, although I'm surprised there's no comparisons with the old classics "white Prime" mould in terms of scale and such.

I wonder if this version can b e made to have the old Powered Convoy configurations if you detach the cab from the trailer. Sure, it's a mod, but not much of one and it looks like it could be possible.

Wait, we need to see if Legends Magnus can fit in there somewhere.

Minimus is MUCH smaller than Legends class. Did you see him next to Legends Wheelie?

Tue Jun 09, 2015 3:43 pm

Another BEAUTIFUL gallery! The '86 Movie crew is really shaping up!

This CW Magnus looks very nice, and I do want one very much. However, seeing him with his CHUG compatriots, his blatant hollowness, non-painted wheels, and plastic, do look inferior. That makes me a bit sad... :-(

Overall I like him, but some of these Combiner Wars figs have had too many cut-backs to them for their own good, and it leaves me feeling conflicted about them. :-?

Should be the new background for Seibertron.
