As they're headmasters, they're a wee bit smaller than Legends.

Close enough IMO.

They fit in with WST pretty well.

I actually thought Blaster's boxart is fantastic. Rock on.

Just for comparison, here is a picture, by height, of a Legend, a Mini-Con, one of these Headmasters, a Micromaster, a WST and a Double Targetmaster.

It's quite obvious that a good deal of folks decided to leave their ability to have any kind of fun at the door when they came in. Why do these have to serve a specific purpose to be cool? Shoot, I've gotten a few Headmaster figures (the body portions not the head) in some of the BBTS Junk lots that I've purchased. I held onto them even though they weren't the main goal of my purchase and nowe, repainting the bodies to coincide with one of these new heads seems to me like it would be kind of a cool idea. A way to "redo" a classic G1 style figure into a customized "new" Headmaster. Sure some of you may not have any need for these figures but that doesn't mean that you need to piss in everyone else s' Cornflakes over it. I think redoing my headless Chromedome in Blasters G1 colors could end up looking pretty sharp if I do the right combination on the right parts.

Some people do custom paint G1 bodies to match these new heads. Just look at the TFcon Toxin head, and this repainted Chromedome body.

That looks slick.

This look really nice, I think. Got mine today.

That's headmaster Megatron holding himself as a targetmaster. The worlds will end soon!
