He said a new mold for Long Haul. It's not the one that combines into Devastator. Also, Override is a repaint of Sideways, not Sideswipe

Who actually even buys these things? I've always thought of them as a last minute birthday gift from a pharmacy. Or something parents who are too cheap to buy the full sized or scout figures would get, not something someone would actually consciously buy. :BANG_HEAD:

Legends-class figures actually are a nice little thing for collectors. Cheap enough to buy when you just need a hit of plastic goodness, y'know, and for someone like me who collects a specific character, the Legends version can round out the group nicely. Plus for some, like RotF Arcee and Ravage, it's the closest size class for keeping the 'bots relatively size-accurate.

I'm mildly curious about Hound, to go with Sea Spray. The others, not so much.

When they're small versions of bigger guys, I kinda agree, but some, who were minibots to begin with, they're pretty cool. I got Cosmos, Warpath, and Wheelie a few years back, it's a great size for guys like that. I just wish I'd been able to find a a Brawn.
