The next phase of the Transformers Legacy line is taking shape in North America. The core class is slowly being released through Amazon in the US and in Canada, this first wave has been found at Walmart in Ottawa (by CanPrime). It contains Sludge, Slug and Soundblaster. We have reviews from our community below for these toys.
chuckdawg1999 wrote:Finishing up the Wave 01 Core Class figures from Legacy Evolution we have Soundblaster and Sludge. Soundblaster looks great but is a bit looser in some areas than Soundwave and really doesn't offer anything new. Sludge is much better in hand than stock photos have made it look, but you still have to get used to how the figure works below the waist. Once you understand all that Sludge has to do, forming the torso and upper legs of Volcanicus, you start to appreciate the figure more. Overall, both figures are fine but I would pick up Sludge first just to have the next piece of the Volcanicus puzzle.
chuckdawg1999 wrote:This is an interesting way to start the Evolution of Legacy. Slug, more commonly known as Slag to long-time fans, is a really fun figure. Transformation is simple but has a few fun steps that leave you satisfied. While this can never replace the SS86 leader, Slug makes for a fun desk toy.

The day I no longer read the word "Slag" as Slug's name will be a good day.

As for "Animated" Prowl, the only major letdown is the absence of the samurai armor/sidecar. His face reminds me more Smokescreen (G1) btw.
I suspect we may get a Selects "Samurai" voyager class figure down the line with the added armor

I don't think they are testing waters, that Dinoking or Monstructor (whichever) will be happening. Probably as a boxset through fan channels. The core class is just to give parents a cheaper option on shelves for known characters, that's why the put Dinobots there. The combining gimmick is just an extra collect them all aspect at that level for kids/parents. Where we (the fans) come in is with the redecos that will emerge in fan channels.
I think there is a collector use case, which is a budget-friendly counter to 3P Legends scale. These mostly aren't as nice as the old Legends, but I like a smaller scale and simpler transformation set of G1 guys. I'm hopeful to have a good season 1/2 cast to have alongside the Ark even if it's not really to scale, because it should still be passable in a certain kind of display.

The reason I didn't really consider the whole 3p thing as a huge factor was the lack of scale. But I assumed that 3p did things to scale at that class size, do they? Like, is Grimlock bigger than Prime and Prime bigger than Prowl and Prowl bigger than BB, ect?

I still think it's more of an appeal to parents buying for kids (or kids on a budget) and any collector appeal is a happy accident (as Bob Ross would say).

Pointblank got lots of flack for being severely flawed. The fact that it could have been a voyager to be "complete", but was trimmed down to a deluxe didn't help. Lack of spoiler shield, barebone targetmaster, no panels to cover the back of the legs, limited articulations, lack of painted details, and so on.
By itself, it's not a bad toy. But it could have been much, much more.
Oh well, I'll just have to buy the upgrade kits. I already started with the legs panels. All that remain is the spoiler shield at the very least.

Just 1.
Although I don’t think this means anything in terms of improving distribution…
I went to a Target that I normally don’t go to and it literally had 5 different TF’s on all pegs and shelves, 7 TOTAL:
1 SS86 Kup
1 SS86 SS
1 Cyberverse Snarl
1 Cyberverse Wheeljack (1 step changer?)
3 Cyberverse 3 pks of OP, Bee, and Cheetor
And yes, I checked end caps, looked for extra aisles of clearance toys…
Just so pathetic…

Target is starting to do their clearance and reset of the whole toy section. This is basically the worst time of year to expect something, but may be turned around quite quickly once each store resets. Its just a guessing game on what that will be for your particular store.
Also being down to 1 SS86 Kup is a good thing, that was one of the more consistent peg warmers. My store still has 4.
Posted by D-Maximal_Primal on January 13th, 2023 @ 11:35am CST
My proposition is to give us a G1 Landfill as a double targetmaster, to go with Scoop from T30 as a Targetmaster. Obviously a Quickmix would be needed to, but he is not essential to what I am about to propose. A new Scoop also wouldn't be a terrible idea either, to be discussed again below.
Now, once we have Landfill, we need a G2 repaint with a new head as Dirtbag, to go with the Adventure Roadblock that was repainted from Scoop. Alternatively, if a new Scoop was done too, they could design him to be reversed at the torso to have the proper Roadblock chest and also allow him to have the proper head design.
Both Landfill and a reversed Scoop torso would be accurate to the G2 designs. Thus, we could get 2/3 of the Autobot double targetmasters, and we could get the 2 G2 Autorollers out of the deal too.
And there would be further alternative repaint options, chief among them giving us a new Autocrusher and Autostinger to go with the Beast wars II figures coming out lately, which might also lead to new figures of Autojetter and Autolauncher and thus repaints of them as the unreleased G2 versions of those 2 characters. And then there is also the G2 General Optimus and Sargent Hound as well.
In short, lots of fun!

I'm not sure what the OP was, but in my area, Target at least had some Legacy Wave 2, and the most recent SS. They have also cleared most inventory out for a new years reset. Whereas Walmart never got anything beyond Legacy Wave 1, and the Beast Wave. Also tons of Velocitron deluxes, and SSBB Arcee/Ironhide clogging up pegs. Even at clearance prices they aren't moving hardly at all. Not a good look for Walmart to be full of old product.

Which most recent SS? Because I was told the deluxe class toys had not changed from 6 months ago. If you found crosshairs, that would be news

Designer Notes on Legacy Pointblank revealed that Peacemaker's inclusion forced some simplification for budget reasons:
Mark Maher wrote: This time around since I lead the design of this guy I thought it was essential to add in Peacemaker. I soon realized how cost challenging it was to include a target master at a Deluxe scale and pricepoint.
btw Wouldn't have been the first time an Armada Hot Shot toy was tweaked:
Armada Hot Shot original prototype on TFWiki.

More proof that PB should have been a voyager.

But along comes needlenose- a character I like and do what in my collection- and I think he looks great. Yes a simple figure, but the robot mode is much nicer than pointblanks. And the jet mode has undercarriage but so does every other jetformer ever lol. The targetmasters are static figures but I honestly prefer those over the giant bulky gun bots from siege. The gun modes were prioritized and im happy about that

And yet they doubledowned with Needlenose. They had four options with Pointblank: 1) Scrap the whole thing, 2) cut it down and release an inferior version of what they started with, 3) Start over and try again from scratch, 4) Go all in and build it up to a Voyager class. IMO they went with the second worst option.

Which isn’t all that surprising; I figured if I didn’t see this guy in store before Christmas, I’d have him one way or another before the end of January.
What’s surprising is that I’ll have these before I have two copies of Dead End…
The one I snagged from my Target I’m almost positive was a return— the box-wear looked anything but case-fresh, & I’m pretty sure this store never received any wave 3 deluxes.
Repacked Core figures just showed up this past week.
Anyway, getting Breakdown tomorrow has me thinking stores around here will be getting in a lot more product within the next two weeks.

To comment on both aspects of this post:
More G2, as in G2 original characters, will be appreciated. I have truly come to appreciate how much fun they had in G2 with all the original stuff, and I would love to see more of it.
See, I like Pointblank, and looking at needlenose, they did him right on a deluxe scale even with a 2nd Targetmaster. I do not mind what they put out. If they had made him smaller, it may have helped offset a couple of more nitpick points, like the arm joints. But I still like him.

They should have released the targetmasters at the same time as the battlemasters, the same year for the same theme. They already said that it's more about alt modes than character selection and all target masters have perfect alt modes to sell to kids.

No doubt, as long as it's sold as a "voyager class" toy. By comparison, we have Blaster being sold in voyager class with voyager height, complexity, and mass along with a casette that is more complex than what we got in Siege. The voyager pointblank being imagined here would have been ripped to shreds by this community.
The only way these things have been pallatable have been as an exclusive like Greenlight or SG Flamewar, since they are sold as a 2 pack, with one figure being a deluxe, with their own individual 2 pack pricepoint (which may be close to a voyager price point). But then there would have been an uproar about a new mold being an exclusive. Looking at every single option, the best would be a deluxe with a targetmaster sold apart in another class and the second best option is what we got.

But as Animated Prowl, he comes up short (literally and figuratively.) He's not a failure, but I can't get over his stockiness and that terrible face. The bike isn't sleek or streamlined and for some reason those handlebars in robot mode really bug me. I get he's supposed to be "G1-ified" but they managed to ruin it much like they did Arcee and Bulkhead. He's adequate at best. For a casual fan he'll do the job of representing the character, but as a fan of the show and that character in particular, I'm disappointed.
The handlebars really bug me too

Well, I DID was pissed at "voyager" Override. Once in hand, he felt like a deluxe through and through.
Still, thinking about it, I wonder how Override would have been trimmed down to a deluxe?

As for your question about override, I don't think anything could have been done. The voyager price was for the engineering, and if they skimped on that it would have crippled the figure. Or made it a borderline 2-step simpleton.

Sometime I want to write something, then I change my mind, but I forget to delete some words resulting in weirdness.
As for Override, "deluxinging" it would have been sabotage.
