An image has arisen of a new Revenge of the Fallen Legends boxset, titled War for the Skies. bny888 of TFW2005 found it at a Toy Kingdom store in the Phillipines. The set includes four Legend class figures, Autobot Blades, Jetfire, Thundercracker and Spinister, as well as a Jetfire Collector Card, similar to the packaging of Wal-Mart Exclusive RotF Skywarp and Ramjet. Autobot Blades is a repaint of Revenge of the Fallen Legends Springer, while his Autobot counterpart Jetfire seems to be inverted from his original release. The Decepticon forces are filled out by Thundercracker, who is a repaint of 2007 Movie Legends Starscream, and Spinister, a purple coloured repaint of 2007 Movie Legends Grindor, the first time his G1 character has been featured as a homage.
The exclusivity of the set, and how we North American/Europeans can obtain it is a puzzle at the moment, so stay tuned to Seibertron.com for updates, galleries, and the fastest news on the net!

and now I would like to see a larger version of spinister, and the mini scorps figure could be called singe or hairsplitter (his ex targetmaster partners)

UPDATE:
This ebay auction has posted a picture showing this set with the Kmart sticker on the package, which means that once again, fans will be scouring Kmarts all over the US trying to find this set.

God I hate Kmart exclusives. Last time I went into Kmart, it looks like the whole place was robbed or something.

Ha, I know what you mean. I went into our K-mart a few months ago looking for new waves, and it looked like a bomb went off in there. The shelves (and the whole store) were a complete mess.
Also, they had a big sign that said "Transformers Headquarters!". When I got to the toy section, they had maybe 3 figures...

To be honest... the movie Legends are five levels below the Cybertron and Classics legens in both looks and articulation, with very few exceptions. Not impressed.

No one's going to mention that they gave the name of a helecopter 'bot (Blades) to a jet mold and they gave the name of a jet 'con (Skywarp) to a helecopter mold?

I think I saw that kind of sign over the toy section as well. The place smells like bleach was spilled all over the place, I could've sworn if you work there you'd prob get brain dmg. I hope these ends up available on Kmart.com

Skywarp is not in the set.
The helicopter is Spinister. The VTOL craft is Blades. Thundercracker is the Skywarp repaint, and Jetfire is Jetfire in non-Jetfire colors.
They had me at Spinister.

I haven't been big on RoTF Legends, but I might grab this just because I've always <3ed the name 'Spinister'. One of those so simple pun yet so badass sounding names.

That's about the price of buying 4 individual legends figures, guess it's not so bad.

In PA, Legends are still about $5. I'm curious to see what this'll run here.

Got this tonight for $24.99. They had about 10 of them.
I have to say, the paint apps are well above average for Movie Legends class figures. Spinister uses metallic purple for highlights. Thundercracker has lemon yellow canopy, and a metallic red highlight. Jetfire looks pretty good with the silver and charcoal scheme. Blades is Blades. Nothing to write home about.
