Thank you for your patience with these questions.

1. I have begun collecting cyberverse scale with my son. Where can I score checklists?

2. Where can I find info on collection 2? What chars and when it is released...

3. What is the name of the collection for Revenge of the Fallen that is in the same scale as cyberverse? Any checklists?

4. What is the name of the collection for Transformers I that is in the same scale as cyberverse? Any Checklists?

5. Where can I get pics and checklists for exclusives in the cyberverse scale for all 3 movies?

Simply put, you're looking into Cyberverse and similarly scaled figures? We can answer that :)

First up, The Size Class debuted in 2005 under the Cybertron line, with a different name: Legends. That name was used for all lines until Dark of the Moon, including the first movie and Revenge of the Fallen.

Secondly, checklists are few and far inbetween, and the Legends scale has many, MANY figures, and all them come in different colors. Collecting them all is quite a feat.

I do have a checklist in Microsoft Excel, no pictures I'm afraid.

legends and Cyberverse are a bit different though, the Legends are "simplistic" in their transformation (like G1 minibots) while the Cyberverse have some engineering and complexity to them.

Cyberverse style engineering and the somewhat complex transformations started with the DOTM cyberverse line..

Am I correct about this?


Oh and grasshoppa welcome to Seibertron!

You're right about that, but only for the Commander Classes. :)

That's a thing I forgot to add: the Legends figures of previous lines are the same size as the smaller Cyberverse figures, of the so-called Legion Class. The somewhat larger Commander Class figures with weaponry started with Dark of the Moon.

as far as the legends go for ROTF legends here is a decent checklist. The only one I notice not there is legends ravage.

Thank you all for the warm welcome and responses. I have been collecting Star Wars for years. I took my 11 and 7 year olds to see DOTM yesterday. This is a new collection that I can work on with them. I was actually in the City of Chicago for the filming of DOTM. I saw Optimus Prime as well as Bumblebee around as well as many of the scenes that they set up. It was pretty cool to be there.

Anyway, thanks for all of the time and aggravation that you have saved me already. I was erroneously under the impression that the scout class figures were the same scale as cyberverse. I used Entertainment Earth website to generate my own lists for cyberverse.

What I cannot find so far is a list of cyberverse and legends exclusives. Any ideas on where to get this info?

Any other pointers from the pros?

The Transformers Wiki has a list here and probably has more for the various incarnations of the size class. You can actually still find some of the older ones (like Cybertron and Classics) in unexpected places like the toy sections of grocery and drug stores.

Happy hunting!
