Yes. It is exactly his design. Even the hollow parts of the feet!
It seems almost the same for Sunstreaker too.
I'd totally be into this if I was at all interested in having a SmartPhone.

Additionally the folks over on the Planet Iacon facebook page have posted 25 of the character cards with their stats. Check out the images mirrored below.
If you're outside the US the game may be available to you at the link listed below:

Burn wrote:So, game play is basic, as you would expect for a mobile/tablet game.
When you join up you choose your faction. This seems pointless though as you can build both Autobot and Decepticon teams and participate in Autobot and Decepticon missions.
You have two ways to earn XP. Missions (which uses Energon) and Battles (which uses Energon Battle Cubes). Once you've used all your energon and battle cubes up you have to wait for it to replenish.
In missions you have a job to do, but it's basically press the scan button. This can result in either finding character cards, or you have to deflect attacks by Swoop or Ramjet (depending on your faction). You may also come across a Cache which gives you the chance to win rare cards. As the mission progresses you may also battle a boss whose weapon you can win. You earn XP points and Credits.
In Battles you fight other players. Well not so much fight, you line your cards up, winner is determined by stats. You earn XP and Battle Points
Cards you collect can be used for either trans-scanning your characters (you need to find both a matching robot mode and alt mode to trans-scan them together so they can transform), alternatively you can use them to upgrade existing characters (at the cost of credits) or sell for credits. Same goes for weapons.
There's the Space Bridge which you can use to request more troops (cards). There's a variety of ways to use the space bridge. Game credits (dish out the money), Battle Points, Ally Points, Bronze Warrior Medal (you get these when you level up) and Bronze Weapons Medal (not sure where you get these)
Friends playing? Add them as Allies. So far the only advantage I see is to "cheer" them and earn Ally Points for the Space Bridge.
It's a simple game, very beautiful artwork. Looks great on a 7 inch Samsung Galaxy Tab 2. My only complaint? You have to have an active internet connection.

The character art is GORGEOUS!
Game play is simplistic and won't hold your attention past a few weeks, and once you collect all the cards you'll probably never want to play again, but for now it's a nice break from Angry Birds Star Wars!

I sent Mr Duque screencaps of all those that i've unlocked. There's a couple of nice alt modes in them so just keep checking back for updates.

Everything has been updated now, review and new images.

Anyway the art for TF Legends is AMAZING. I too like that the art reflects current products.
Can't Wait!!! I'll see you all there I'm sure.

Still, powerful.
Only seen one Optimus Prime as well, dying to get Magnus Robot mode!

For some reason I lost my Ratchet (probably fused with Hound) so I feel like an inferior entity on the battlefield..
Wonder how to reset :p

Actually i'm sure I trans-scanned Scourge but apparently not.
Bit hard to work out whether it's a bug or just my mind playing tricks.

This L4/Elite is about twice as powerful (attack&health) compared to a half-way leveled L2 card and I DO feel lucky to have him. In all my "PVP combat" so far I've only seen one Optimus Prime, one Metroplex, one Starscream and two Trypticons (50 battles won.)

It's available in EU too.
Those of you that installed TF:L outside of Google Play, just uninstall and re-install through Google Play. Log in and you'll have your stuff back.
Biggest changes I noticed on my One S:
Cheers now receive 10 AP PER BUDDY, previously this was something like 10 AP per 5 or 10 Buddies.
Battles no longer stop responding on the preparation screen (the battle still continued, you just couldn't see it.
Game loads and resumes slightly quicker, I guess about 1 Second has been shaved off of both conditions.
I'm trying to avoid the bug where you wouldn't receive your Level Up rewards if you leveled up during a battle instead of a mission (this also goes for intercepts) so I can't tell if that is fixed.
so far this game is tastic

-edit-
Changes i've noticed
• Changes in graphics - Every time you level up during, or complete a mission, the "completion" screen has been improved.
- when you defeat someone in battle they're surrounded by broken glass
• Sound has improved, for example, it's sharper when you're attacked during missions.
• AI for attacks during missions have improved, they now fire across more of the screen rather than just what was a central location (could by the higher level too)
