The inside of his chest design looks familiar.

For the sake of curiosity, how many times have Optimus, Megatron, and an unrelated third character shared a mold?

Eh, could be weirder. Could have a molded in Silas on life support.

He looks way better in those shots than the stuff we've seen before. His proportions look fine to me, and his head looks different. Did they change something?

I was thinking that, too. I'm still not a fan of that head. It looks too...viking

[Cobotron]

I was trying to compare it to this pic.

Actually I'm all for a "viking" look. The horns and the shape of his face look different to me. Maybe just the pictures. I really don't have any complaints about this guy yet. But I'm real easy to please when it comes to super robots.

dun think so. i agree with ya though, he looks a lot better than previously seen, which is odd because i find primes torso mode a little off. cant wait for the his other limbs (and he's lookin pretty empty without blackjack).

Yeah, I think it's the angle that makes the head look different. I think I figured out what bothers me.. He'd look way better if those horns were black. Easy fix...

Has anyone combined Legends Thundercracker to Ultra Primes chest yet? I've not been able to get him pegged in straight. Thanks.

Yeah don't do this. All you'll accomplish is breaking Thundercrackers hands. I've seen a few people who've done this to Starscream and Thundercracker.

Thanks. I definitely don't want to do that. Are the chest pegs the problem?

Yes. They're just a tad too big to fit into the hands on the Legend Seekers. Also I think Thundercracker's hands are made of a just thinner plastic than Starscream's

That's right, back in my day I walked up hill to school both ways, and my Menasor's horns were black!

ha! if thats the case, holding out for takaras menasor might be the best move

Good call- I'm already doing that with Superion

I'm cool with retail. I can't go long without a fix.

has medical science figured out how to get it straight to your veins yet?

I've just been using a circular saw, duct tape, and a blow torch out in the garage.

[chuckdawg1999]

Folks I feel it's my duty to inform you that the Legends figures; Huffer, and Blackjack, have been showing up at Amazon and eBay. In both cases they're going for entirely too much money so I recommend restraint and patience. It's nice to know that they're coming though.

[Va'al]

Thanks to a notification from fellow Seibertron.com user shajaki, via Twitter user @2Danomite2 (who acquired them via Entertainment Earth), we get the first proper look at some in-hand Motormaster goodness from Generations Combiner Wars! The Voyager figure may come before or after the line-mate Optimus Prime, and shares very similar features - though instead of Ultra Prime, we get a new design for Stunticon gestalt Menasor. Check out the images below.

[RhA]

I've got the money, now bring me the Mötormaster.

[Syn_13]

Menasor still looks underwhelming. Bought Drag Strip because I liked his figure, but I'm just not sure whether I'm going to get this guy still. It's mostly the head sculpt really.

I like the Motormaster figure so I'll probably get the team but not sure if I'll display them combined unless a 3P come out with a better head sculpt. Or I might wait for Takara's Motormaster in case their head sculpt for Menasor is better.

I hate that people mostly take pics of this mould with the chest cavity open and nothing in it. It just looks stupid. Take one of the chest closed up as well, it might actually look decent. Ultra Prime's looks better with the chest closed than open with nothing in it.

[ZeroWolf]

Ultra prime's chest cavity could look better though especially if the detail was painted to match energon primes spark of combination.

At the moment it makes it look like menasor is a boss character in a video game showing off where his weak spot is

That's odd, the first thing that struck me with these pics is that I really liked the head sculpt. It's not authentic to the original, but it is more distinctive - it makes Menasor stand out from the others.

[MightyMagnus78]

I like him a lot more now I've seen these in hand pictures. Can't wait to stuff Skywarp in that chest cavity to bulk it out.

[Cyber Bishop]

How did he acquire them from EE? The site still shows them as pre order?

[peaces]

wonder if he's as floppy as prime is in torso mode. the retail head is painted much better. i love it. also his open chest looks a lot better in the retail version. really hope they fixed the floppiness.
