Thank Real Devastator!

Spark Crusher and that Red Car are the only two I want out of there.

Runamuck is a G1 name, but Sparkcrusher is new. If Sparkcrusher wasn't a repaint of Legends Classics Warpath, I'd say it sounded like a POCrap. But I like the mold, so...

Man, I really want that Warpath repaint. Do I dare buy that other crap just for him? Depends on the price.

Sparkcrusher? Cool. Is that the Cybertronian version of a heart attack?

I think Sparkcruncher is meant to be a G1 Action Master homage to Gutcruncher; the colors look the same.

Jazz has a lot of repaints for a dead character, doesn't he?
G1, Allspark Power, and Premium Jazz.
Final battle Jazz (Remold, I know)
2 Smokescreens, FAB and ROTF deluxe.
Titanium Dead End.
And now, Runamuck.

Edit: They also mislabeled Mudflap as Ironhide.

Good catch! I knew it reminded me of someone but I couldn't put my finger on it. That, Runamuck and Swerve make it a buy for me.

Ill be getting this so i can finally get warpath. That wave of legends were never released over here. Since i only have 2 of those molds its not a total waste. Target only though so finding this will be a hunt indeed. At least its not a walmart exclusive.

I already have Ironhide, and don't really care much for the Legends Jazz, but both the Legends Warpath and Legends Sideswipe molds are pretty durn good, and Legends Mudflap actually doesn't look too bad. I might have to pick this up.

I like the design of this. Ironhide.... may get him since I failed to last time, Swerve... well, a red Sideswipe is always nice IMO. Mudflap, seems unchanged, will most likely be in the place of the normal release. And as for the Jazz repaint, it makes me believe the mold has finally reached it's potential as opposed to bland Jazz and fugly Smokescreen. But it's the Warpath repaint that steals the show IMO. I live in Scotland so could somebody who will be picking up this up please contact me so I can obtain one of these?

Is Mudflap the same as the regular release, or is it the same minor repaint that's being packed with Deluxe Bumblebee over in Japan?

I can't quite tell, having never seen the figure in the flesh (I'm in the UK, all my local shops are still only selling the first wave!)

I'm really digging Sparkcrusher. I also really like that Jazz repaint, but somebody needs to get repainted to Runabout now. Maybe Barricade sans light bar?

I'm calling a Black Friday release date for these.

Swerve is dope. I'll be getting it for sure

God I hope not! The last true Black Friday figures were the Yellow Build Team at Wal-Mart and they were a pain in the a$$. I had to get up at 4:00AM, and my Wal-Mart got exactly one case of them. It was rough.

Hey, the yellow Build Team wasn't the last Black Friday exclusive!!! The last Black Friday exclusives were the Animated two-packs, Optimus vs. Blackarachnia and Prowl vs. Megatron. :-B
