If there were pics somewhere else then people wouldn't be unable to share them in the first place. :-P

Just wait for the official mistransformed pics from hasbro to surface, I'm sure we'll see them soon enough.

Hey Tigertracks, is the mold as awe-inspiring as the rest of the new molds that we've been seeing or will the masses be disappointed?

All I know is that if Hasbro is willing to make Cheetor and Dinobot,
then we can realistically be expecting Insecticons and Classic Dinobots.

Yea, keep bringing out Beastwars garbage, it gives me less to buy for a while. I wouldn't mind if they released nothing but Beast Wars for a few months so I could save money to buy some MPs and Encores that I have missed.

On the other hand, thank god that these Beast Wars ones are coming out before Christmas, so they don't have time to clog the shelves for too long. We already have too much garbage blocking new product. I fear it will be a while before I find any of the new Robot heroes with the stacks of Beast Wars ones at every store.

He’s okay, but he looks kind of miss-transformed. Hotshot looks better though, surely one of the best from this entire line.

Legends Wheelie and Warpath also look great. Some of the best legends toys I’ve ever seen.

Cool a version bw dinobot I want to own. Also can't wait for cheetor I have the reissue from a few yr ago.

Kidd speaks the truth. The mold is not awe inspiring. It seems to have it's flaws, but I guess it is an improvement over the original, it must be right? Think of Cheetor, and make it a raptor. Think of the robot mode, and then think dinobot. They similar, obviously donobot does not have a dino head on his chest like Cheetor has a cheetah on his.

I really like the Legends Cosmos, Warpath, and Wheelie. Warpath was one of my favorite TF toys as a kid...simple but cool. Bad thing is, he has the H tank shape like Armada Megs, and Animated Shockwave.

Wheelis has a concept car look to him in Earth mode, concept sports car that is, and has more articulation in bot mode, and looks much more like the G1 animation for Wheelie did. Not exactly but closer. Be nice if one of the customizers out there can make an Energon powerpack for him like in the Spotlight, and a slingshot would be cool too, but he's probably too small for that.

Except it looks a lot better! I want to know, where is Jolt to go with this Hot Shot??? He was not shown, and yet is more important perhaps than a Nightstick for G1 Cyclonus re-creation.

It looks as though with this re-creation of Hot Shot, the combining or powerlinxing features are gone, thus no minicon needed.

I did see the improvements but I will still pass on it

Although I'm not a member I saw the pic of him, and if he dosen't come with a minicon they did seem to leave a slot for Jolt!
Just look at his spoiler in alt-mode, there is a gap were Jolt used to go!

Dinobot loos pretty good, though a biut mis transfored, his crotch looks exceedingly naked if you will.

Hot Shot loks leagues better than his Original Armada version. Though I also wonder about Jolt.

Legends Warpath looks really cool. Wheelie wel its nice they are thinking about him. Still think a more old school form would have looked better on him.

not sure why there's a Legends Rodimus, but the car mold looks pretty cool.

Maybe it is in honor of the MM version to come with Star Convoy from Battlestars. :-?

Good Point, if so I guess I'll pair him up with My Armada Prime as he's the closest homage to Star Convoy I own. And he'll look cool with him.

All he needs now is a small black truck, and a few ramps.

Someone who didn't like it in the first place ( like myself ), would they like it?

Like, I HATE the old cheetor, but the new one looks alright and I might even pick it up.
