We have another update in the online Legends manga series from Takara Tomy Transformers, following from the previous update we covered here. With Hayato Sakamoto still behind the story and art, in this 53rd chapter we see a number of regular characters from the toylines, but also a human addition from the real world, with artist Marcelo Matere, writer James Roberts, and artist and colourist Josh Perez also making a cameo appearance in the panels!

Holy crap they actually destroyed the Legends universe...

Once again TF manga pages that are a horribly cluttered mess of crap.

I'd pick up those Autobot Target masters if they made them. I'd rather have them look more like the original, but they were represented pretty well.

(for those wondering, the three captions for Matere, Roberts and Perez are 'South America' in kanji, and England and America in katakana.)

Just curious, but how prominent is Marcelo in the TF comics community? I know him much more for his TF toy artwork from Armada to today.

What about the one for the other great TF creative force that got a panel, Dirge?

He’s drawn a lot of comics. Spotlights Grimlock, metroplex, contribution to megatron origin, and he’s been doing incentive covers for RID/TF/OP for years. He’s on par with Casey with the amount to contribution in the comics.

He may have an artistic friendship with Sakamoto much like how Milne like to sneak in Josh Perez in his work

The Dirge toy is protecting Kagoshima, Japan.

That Kup mold looks great for Crosshairs, but if ot got made as a you I would pribably pass just so Kup stays unique. Tough Call though. Pointblank looks good using the Hot Rod mold.I probably would pick that up. Not sold on the alt mode for Sureshot. I guess its a good Bot mode though?

What's neat about all three Autobot Targetmasters is that they each not only use preexisting molds for both their bodies and their heads, but each uses some tooling that was never released in Japan:

Pointblank - Hasbro TR Hod Rod w/ Siege on Cybertron Metalhawk's head

Sureshot - Full-Tilt w/ Quake's head

Crosshairs - Hasbro TR Kup w/ Skytread's head

This makes me think these are definitely coming down the line at some point. Takara would be crazy not to do this. Demand is so high!

Japan got the Hasbro TR Kup mold in the same Amazon exclusive Transformers Tribute set we all got, just with some stickers on the box and a TLK designation. It's also still in stock and dirt cheap at only 2,330JPY. And of course Skytread was in the Headmaster box set as Flywheels.

Takara, you're not allowed to show this without a proper toy in preparation.

Isn't that just Thunderclash in his IDW form just simplified?
