Very curious about the comic. It's a Legends "spin off", but uses a character from IDW's lore. Or, it could be just a Legends Universe version of Deadlock instead of the main version, but then again, that cover suggests a more serious tone than what the more humorous Legends manga tends to offer. Guess we'll find out soon.

It's been a while since we last heard about the eHobby exclusive Legends Deadlock repaint of Generations/United Drift, but thanks to Twitter Transformers fans naototsushima and gikogakodo we have two in-hand images of the red and black (for the most part) Decepticon fighter. Check them out below!

Alright magic modders, find me a way to remove that chest piece in robot mode but not in vehicle. This thing is beautiful.

Any guesses as to what Deadlock's title/function is? All I can make out from that manga cover is that he's a Decepticon Jae...(something).

Huh, looks like they changed the title on that comic cover since it used to say this:

I'm guessing some copy writer noticed how Engrish-tastic "Decepticon Slaughter Soldiers" is?

Then again, they were fine with having Megatron say "dude" in the Grand Scourge comic. :-P

I think Megatron might have imbibed too much top shelf energon that day. ;)

My guess is "Jaeger", which is German for "Hunter". Words with "ae" (used as a substiture for ä) are usually German, and it's one of those foreign languages Japan likes to use (alongside French and Dutch).

It's the reverse of Deadlock: Drift with Blurr doors vs. Blurr with Drift doors. :)
