We have an interesting bit of news to bring to you all. Thanks to Seibertronian fonziechavez for this. He recently received his order of Crosscut from Hasbro Pulse, who's a recolor of the Burnout version of the Legacy Skids mold. But as you can clearly see from the pictures below, his Crosscut figure was packed in the wrong box, instead of Crosscut's own. The box and box art belong to Medix, an Autobot brought into Legacy as a G1 version of the character from the Transformers Rescue Bots line. Medix is rumored to be this year's store exclusive for Walgreens, continuing their tradition of having an exclusive with a medical or science theme (Brainstorm, Ratchet, Minerva....(and for some reason, Bluestreak). Check out the pictures below!

As can be clearly seen from these images, Medix is a re-use of the Crankcase version of the Skids/Burnout/Crosscut/Crankcase mold, with the masked head originally used on Burnout from the Velocitron Speedia 500 line. He'll apparently come with translucent red versions of the weapons that originally came with Legacy Elita-1 and Minerva, as well as the grille-gun and pistol from Crankcase.

So what do you all think of this packaging error that gives us a first look at Medix's box? Has anyone else gotten any Legacy figures with similar mistakes? Let us know in the forums and the comments below!

It would have been funny if there was another Dion that's a repaint of the same line's Hot Shot down the road

Funny that Hasbro would "post a spoiler" themselves.

I'll have to hunt down that Medix at my local GameStop.

Medix: Walgreens exclusive for 2023, sure to be in stores by 2025…

Also, if anyone still wants Minerva, get her while you can:

My local target has eight metalhawks in stock for some reason. The only other legacy evolution toys it has had in stock have been one Tarn and one Leo Prime, so that's great.

Thanks for posting. I saw one in the wild a few days ago and tried to go back yesterday and of course it was snatched up. Stores in big cities have a general problem with stocking in the best of circumstances let alone a collectible exclusive or anything like the debacle that has been every walgreen's release. That combined with the rent tax on instore purchases and it's a hard place for the fun of the hunt in collecting in any big city. Makes most places more like museums than viable places to look for stuff to buy in hobbies line tf's. Guess i'll get this one the same way i have every walgreen's exclusive i have.

Well it makes sense if you watched The Transformers: The Movie.

The "military strategist" Prowl and the "weapon specialist" Ironhide each used a single gun while fighting the Decepticons on the shuttle. Yet the medic Ratchet is dual wielding guns while fighting.

So Medix learned a valuable lesson. Two guns aren't enough, so better make it four with two shoulder cannons and maybe a chest cannon?. I mean, you can put a blast effect there to make it look like one. Maybe use one of those barrel extensions from Red Cog to make it official.

Just don't take the Autobot medics lightly.

It's more annoying that his mold mate, literally called a Triggercon, isn't as well armed as him and should have been. :BANG_HEAD:

But then again Walgreens Ratchet also came with a ton of accessories without causing the price to go up. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My two copies of Shrapnel arrived even earlier than expected...

Despite my dislike of the non-accurate colors in a few locations, this is a fantastic figure.
I will say the head joint is too tight, but the snug joints everywhere else are very welcomed.

Relatively speaking, it feels so so good to finally have this guy in my collection.
Based on looks alone, he's probably in my top 10 favorite Decepticon characters, and definitely in my top 10 mainline Decepticon figures.

My Prowl got here from Amazon today. Really solid update, only issue I have is the shurikens and how the blades fold out. Other than that, I'm really happy with him. Hope we get Lockdown and others in future

One of mine doesn't open right, but I tried to pry it open instead of rotating it before I read the directions. I assume it's pretty easy to mess up the gear tabs.

The kickstand basically doesn't work, but it's possible I didn't have the alt-mode tabbed in 100% correctly. The main thing I can't get to look right is the foot on the back wheel locking into the underside of the forearms. It's a bikeformer though, that's just how they are.

Fun toy, looks great. He'll probably hang out with Prime Universe Arcee on my shelves, when I get the time and space to set them up properly. One of many deskbots for now.

The kickstand seems to decide whether or not it wants to work at random if I'm honest. And the gears seem to not really like staying lined up, especially because if you roll the wheels in reverse, the blades can get caught and force them out of alignment

My Skyquake and Prowl are due in today, they were the 2 figures i was really looking forward to from this wave.

Re: First Look at Legacy Evolution Medix Box Art (2158604)
Posted by D-Maximal_Primal on March 27th, 2023 @ 3:52pm CDT

Oh yes, we are feasting tonight

These 2 guys were the ones from this wave i really wanted, and they so far live up to my hopes.

Prowl is pretty nice in hand. I still wish he had the lithe thighs and skinny face with the chin, but he still is pretty good. I like how they did capture his essence, and I like his head a good bit with the visor, I love visors wit the gold headcrest set against a black helmet like this. Now we need a selects voyager release with the sidecar armor!

Skyquake is also pretty dang good. I like how big he feels, I like how TMII Megatron and Skyquake brought back some bigger style leaders that have such a presence to them. I wish his gun was bigger, and I don't intend to use his sword since he never did and it helps separate him from Dreadwing. I wish whatever change they had to make to his torso hadn't had to happen, since his backpack sticks out some and is angled down, and I also wish his chest maybe wasn't so flat and his butterfly joints were a little stiffer, but he's a dang fun toy. I am very happy to have him

War Dawn set does nothing for me, I would have maybe got Dion had he been a different mold and offered on his own but I don't care about him enough to buy him from a mold I don't like in a two-pack I don't want.

Nacelle I'll probably grab, as he's basically the only Seeker left I would actually want made from the ER mold due to the Thrust wings. I do wonder what else Amazon has in store though, since the JTPrime listing says Nacelle is part of a capsule, but Nacelle himself doesn't fit cleanly into any specific groups or themes I can think of outside of being another Seeker (and being baaaarely in the Welcoming Committee).....unless it's a subline of all FunPub characters? Or they're just gonna retcon him into being part of like the Mayhem Attack Squad or something, considering the current team is already fudging around with subline releases/themes to get Toxitron out.

I did get Skyquake, Crashbar, and Twincast from BBTS 2 weeks ago, and have zero complaints about any of them. Skyquake properly exudes boss character energy, Crashbar is honestly one of my favorite Legacy figures thus far, and Twincast...sure is Twincast, that basically only bought for Rewind, but the colors do look a bit nicer than I expected in-hand.

A new Hasbro Pulse fanstream has been announced for 4th April, a week from now. This will most likely be officially revealing Legacy Wave 3 and Armada Optimus, perhaps even the Titan as well. I do wonder if they'll also show more from the Toxitron collection, perhaps the recently leaked Mirage and Sideswipe? I'm also keen to see how many microseconds it'll take for the Dirge re-issue to sell out on Hasbro Pulse, my guess is a fraction of 0.0000000000000001% of a microsecond.

They might even show the War Dawn 2-pack since the one found at a GameStop was also a leak.

With Walmart and Target lagging behind online retailers, like Amazon and stores which may cater more to collectors, there can be great discrepency between the time a toy is made available to fans and the time it shows up at a big box store. So we wanted to let you know that the wave of Legacy Legacy Evolution that includes Skyquake and a repacked Dragon Megatron has been found at a Gamestop in California. It was found by Sness who posted it here.

For those wanting a review in case you aren't sure if you want to buy into this mold (since we know Dreadwing is coming too and possibly much more), here is a review that shows size comparisons.

Skyquake is a very good Transformers, but for the full leader price, it's not the one I'm waiting for. I'd get him only at deep discount, but if the (Select?) Machine Wars Starscream ever happen, that one will be pre-ordered as soon as the listing goes live.

In my defense I'm running on 2 hours of sleep and I'm hungover lol I forgot what day it was

It does look off though, doesn't quite fit in with other legacy figures or look like a hasbro design. Looks very clunky if that makes sense

I do enjoy these April fools posts though because some of them are pretty cool ideas

Exactly, and as I've stated in the thread abut the 2023 Haslab, I never find these to be funny. In fact its made me overly skeptical regarding anything starting from mid day on March 31st, throughout the day every year. 2 years ago when Selects Black Zarak news first broke on some non-mainstream site, I was grilling other sites for information for hours because I was pretty convinced it was a fake until Hasbro themselves put it up on their Pulse site.

In fact, while Amazon is prone to be very erratic with their shipping dates, I dont think (yet at least) thy would resort to pranks. Deluxe Crashbar is supposed to be delivered Wednesday April 4th :DANCE:

. Still no updates on Core Grimlock. I was kind of hoping (for once) to have all the current releases before the next wave was revealed. But I guess it wont be happening. Still, I guess its better than being 2 or 3 waves behind.

Yeah when first looking at it you can see its not the same sand/ground as normal Legacy photos. Also the paint is ok custom quality.

But for a quick look if I was on my phone, prolly would have been tricked for a minute, it does look pretty good. I would kinda actually want it as well lol.

Kind of a Legacy photo drop here. Bu first, some text.

I got Metalhawk and Soundblaster this week, found them at Walmart, they were the only 2 Legacy figures I did not have yet there. Soundblaster is just Soundwave again, but I am particular to the character of Soundblaster, so I like having him a lot. Metalhawk is interesting, I like him more than Cyclonus already, his robot mode is a definite improvement. I need to mess with him more and transform him.

Skyquake and Prowl continue to be really fun. I need to transform Prowl, but Skyquake has gone both ways several times already. They really did nail these 2, I am enjoying them a lot, and I am super stoked for Dreadwing, who is one of my favorite Decepticons across all universes.

I also took more pics of Lio Convoy. I hate to say it, but of the voyagers from Legacy so far, I think he is the weakest. He's sort of just difficult and fiddly in ways i don't like, and it's difficult to make him look good. He's not bad, just not really that fun to play with or look at.

Finally, took some photos of Armada Starscream and Hot Shot with Galaxy Prime and CD Hot Shot (forgot about Override, who was in a different box anyways). They look neat together.

Came across these today while doing some recon work on AEW Figures. These are the first time seeing these figures. Found Crashbar at my GameStop in my home town of London, KY. Then coming home from seeing the new John Wick Movie I found Starscream and Inferno still on the pallet at the Walmart in my home town.

I was surprised to see this at Walmart this morning.

Finally stocked Legacy Deluxe wave 3. Already got them all but it's nice to see them at Walmart. Shame they decided to also restock Core wave 1 AGAIN and completely packing the pegs including the SS pegs. Guess I wont be seeing new Core figures for a long time. :roll:
