New Galleries: Takara Tomy Transformers Legends Arcee, Windblade and Chromia

Posted by shajaki Mar 15, 2015 at 2:40pm CDT 34,699 views
Seibertron.com is proud to bring you some great new galleries featuring the highly anticipated Takara Tomy Transformers Legends LG-10 Arcee, LG-11 Chromia, and LG-12 Windblade! What's most likely the focal point of the trio is the incredibly G1 faithful take on the recent Generations Arcee mold, followed by the more accurate and intricately painted IDW fan made sweetheart Windblade, and finally the heavily retooled Chromia. There are some pretty big differences between these Takara Tomy ladies and their Hasbro counterparts, which also sport some fun mini-comics as well. You can see everything below, and don't be shy to browse Seibertron's vast and forever growing gallery!

These are all really nice versions to own. It was this version of wingblade that got me to accept the character. Takara really does know how to work wonders and make figures that would normally suck be awesome. But im not sure I understand the rationale behind the takara version of chromia. The hasbro version is G1 cartoon accurate, so what does the purple and white homage ?

The G1 cartoon episode "The Search for Alpha Trion":

Turns out she changes colors a lot in that episode:

that might be the background having an effect on the appearance of the colors, rather than her changing colors. Still i do feel the Hasbro version is more G1. Thing is i really like both versions

I got my Arcee two weeks ago and have been going stir crazy waiting for windblade Chromia to arrive from ages three and up.

After almost three weeks of usps mucking about they are now ready for collection at my local post office.I just need to get there before it closes. The suspense is nearly killing me.

At least I have time to compare my legends Arcee to the generations version I got my little girl for her third birthday this weekend. (she won't be having any of this rescue bots stuff)

Welcome to Seibertron.com, Allenspurs. Thanks for signing up!

Rescue Bots toys are really awesome and are extremely age appropriate for a 3 to 6 year old. Each of the initial 6 Rescue Bots features a different transformation that helps increase a child's motor skills. One uses a push and pull method, another uses a lever motion to transform it while another uses a twisting/rotating feature to transform it. I can't recommend the Rescue Bots enough. My daughter loved them from about 2.5 to 5 and then she didn't care for them any more but we still watch the Rescue Bots cartoon together from time-to-time.

I would rather her have enjoyed Rescue Bots for what it was than her having a poor experience with a Transformer toy that was meant for an older child.

And I'm a single young adult with no children who collects Rescue Bots toys for myself. For what they are, they're great. :D

Hi thanks for the welcome.

Maybe I was a bit vague with my first post. I think the rescue bots toys look great and we regularly watch the tv show together but she is not even 1% interested in the toys in any way shape or form.

I think she just seen mine and want's the same as her daddy. That and she is used to playing with vintage g1 toys too, she likes the trucks,optimus,magnus,motormaster and huffer are her current group of choice.

I have a one year old well on the way too,she absolutely loves her g1 roller toy(and it's even still got all the wheels) maybe she will respond to the rescue bots better.

Join us here at Seibertron.com for first Japanese distribution of the Generations Nightbeat mold - in our newest gallery instalment! In the Japanese G1 series Masterforce, GoShooter was originally a Head Master, but in this iteration his human companion Shuta will be playing the part of a Minicon/Targetmaster borrowed from Generations Blazemaster, and the figure was the winner of a Million Publishing fan poll way way back. Click on any image below to view the full gallery!

Best version of this mold, yet!

Until Carzap comes along and tries to tie with it, that is.

It's basically a fan-mode made official. :)

Why do you have to be sooooo pricey, GoShooter? I need you so bad. Why are you TEN TIMES the price of other figures made from your mold? :sad:

A blast from the recent past to kick off the weekend - before Combiner Wars, there was just Generations, and you might remember the Asian market exclusive GDO Legend Class figures for Thundercracker, Bluestreak, Hoist and Motormaster Motorbreath. And even if you don't, Seibertron.com brings you their galleries, viewable by clicking on any of the images below.

Take some time to savour the changes in character updates over just a couple of years, with Thundercracker soon to see its full release in Leader Class form, Motormaster part of wave 2 of Combiner Wars, Hoist already a Generations Deluxe and Bluestreak appearing in the Masterpiece line, by comparing the new galleries to the links we just provided.
