Yay!

First of all haven't posted in a week or so because I am in the process of moving house. Anyway the Yay part comes in here!

I decided to start finishing off the Legends line as they are cheap and very easy to find. Lucky enough I got Bumblebee on Tuesday night at Woolworths and he is one of the hardest to find. Then I went back to Woolworths to get Optimus Prime on Wednesday afternoon. And today (Friday) I got Blackout, Megatron and Starscream from K-Mart and also after that, Ratchet from Woolworths again. I also had Barricade and Jazz for quite a while now so that makes me have 4 Autobts and Decepticons.

I have to say I am very pleased with them and perhaps they are the best figures for their price. They are easy to collect as well as I got all of them in 1 week or... 4 days.

I hope they will continue into the next movie... :lol:

I'd also like to thank all the people who convinced me that they are really worth it

^

p.s Is there any Legends I have missed out? Post pics up soon

I'd say you got all of them. Congratulations!

How much?

I think all of them it was $54 AUS. Thats about $35-$40 US.

Not bad. Aren't they a bit small? Don't you want to collect the bigger ones?

Sort of...

But I thought the Legends were easy to collect as the bigger ones are harder to find. Plus if you want to bring them over seas or something there a space in your pocket

It is also a quick conversion or transformation.

You travel a lot?

by **DorkimusPrime** » Sat Sep 15, 2007 7:56 am

I have Barricade, and he really is pretty groovy. You can take him in bot mode, mash him up in your hand, and get him half-way transformed. :lol:

I collect the little guys; they are good for small display scenes.

So far there is Prime, Megatron, Ratchet, Jazz, Barricade, 74 Bumblebee and now Starscream and Blackout (recently released).

Blackout and Starscream are now up on http://www.hasbrotoyshop.com/ProductsBy ... 96&SBR=526

So are the some of the new Real Gears (new to me will be the black phone, and blue "Laserbeak")

Any pics? Show off your collection!

by **megatroptimus** » Sat Sep 15, 2007 11:01 am

We know there's an Ironhide coming... I hope we will also see Brawl... and maybe Bonecrusher, '08 BB (why not?) and Frenzy (duh). Tiny tiny boombox.

by **Auto Bot** » Sat Sep 15, 2007 11:05 am

So your collection is not yet complete after all.

That'd be awesome, especially with Ultimate Bumblebee-like Barricade (Ultimate Barricade? COME ON LET'S SEE THAT) or, if he's small enough, an Alternator (which I think he'll be too big)

Yup, we saw the Ironhide prototype at Botcon... hope they end up doing all of them, Bonecrusher especially, he's been so ignored in the movie line...

by **Rushie** » Sat Sep 15, 2007 11:54 am

Holy! That Ironhide is IMO the most detailed and accurate Legends yet. Any pics of his truck mode? Can't wait to see him fully painted.

fyi, if any of you guys are planning on getting into these, TRU just got in a 6-pack Movie Legends set this past week. It's $24.99, IIRC.

I was this close to buying it as a consolation toy, but decided against it.

Indeed. It looks to be a pretty detailed toy even if its Legends size

by **DorkimusPrime** » Sun Sep 16, 2007 7:04 am

Those prototype pics definitely make me Hot for Teacher.

Legend Ironhide is nice.

by **ironhide001** » Tue Sep 18, 2007 10:09 am

Legend Ironhide is very nice and accurate.

by **Auto Bot** » Tue Sep 18, 2007 11:32 am

Only the wrist sticking out of the rear makes the truck not so perfect. Should have given it a twist to hide it inside the passenger compartment.
