I don't know if it's been mentioned but the G1/G2 style Legends figures are showing up at Big Lots. Picked up a couple today when I noticed that half of these include weapons that I do not believe came with the originals. Starscream comes with two missiles and the Optimus comes with a red version of the sword that the Motorbreath repaint came with.

Ah those again. They're actually repaints of the GDO retools, but in the colors of their EZ Collection versions. Bumblebee is practically the same from the DotM four-pack with Starscream, and Megatron is totally unchanged. Confused yet?

I wish they would repaint the GDO Legends some more. I still need a Legends Skywarp, and a Legends Smokescreen wouldn't hurt either.
In fact, given the Seeker love, why is that Starscream mold not getting a lot of repainting? They could even sell it as the Coneheads since you can flip the cone up on those figures. Sure, the wings would be off, but many would still bite.
