Four auctions have surfaced on eBay containing images with each of upcoming Legends size figures from the Transformers Revenge of The Fallen toy line. As you may or may not know, all of these figures seem to be entirely new and have no relation to the Legends class Optimus Prime or Bumblebee from 2007. Use these links to view each auction.

Springer
Jetfire
Optimus Prime
Bumblebee

And be sure to see the Transformers Revenge of The Fallen movie trailer this Sunday!

Jetfire has such an ugly bot mode. The alt mode is awesome though. And no combining directions, so Legends look like they are not supposed to combine (Jetfire and Prime that is).

I'm pretty sure i won't be buying this movie's figures, save for maybe some of the legends. I still don't like the aesthetics... and Jetfire looks like a Spawn figure.

On the other hand, there's still this.

I can't get over the horror of Jetfire's robot mode. Compared to the Armada Jetfire I knew growing up, it looks like it was pulled out of the garbage. I HOPE he does something cool in the movie to distract from the sheer ugliness of him. They managed to do that with Starscream at least in the first movie, I thought they did a pretty cool job with him in the movie, although I hated his chicken legs.

I won't be getting these.

Springer is interesting but I just won't be buying any of the legends, movie figures.

I just hope that Jetfire has a deluxe or leader that does him justice (or my G1 Jetfire will have to hunt Bay and the production designers down and kick some ass).

I'm not going to write Jetfire off on the basis of a Legends figure - with a few exceeptions, they aren't exactly the best visual representations of their characters.

Does springer have HANDS?! From the back of the package, it looks like the props flip over to the side.

Prime and Springer look decent.

Bumblebee looks like the old mold (i.e., not for me).

Jetfire... blargh.

Prime looks good, so does Springer but im renaming him and Jetfire sucks.

I think I'll wait on Jetfire as well. They're all rough interpretations of the actual characters, so I'm sure he's not quite as disappointing as his Legends class figure.

I'm sure...I'm sure.... :-(

And maybe they're trying to keep the Optimus/Jetfire powerlink a secret for now. Well, at least a secret from the general public.

Springer makes me excited, though, even if he's not in the movie.

Agreed. I've never seen a Legends figure that held a candle to even deluxes, let alone the inevitable Leader class coming. I also think that Jetfire's robot mode is oddly appropriate, especially if it turns out he's a very fast bot. It's a scientific fact that so-called "reverse joint" legs provide better speed and reflexes...that's why so many animals have them....

...what was i talking about?.. :???:

Jetfire: The First Maximal.

What a load of rubbish, the movie asthetic just doesn't work at this scale.

The recent classics legends are infinantely better.

Geesh, Jetfire looks like a freaking bug, or more like a Bionicle. Hasbro should make him into a voyager class and then I might get him just for the weird looks.
