Legends of Classics.
None of these figures particularly remind me of their namesakes, though. I see a lot of wasted potential in the LoC line. If they made new moulds, moulds of characters other than ones from Cybertron/Galaxy Force, this line could be a winner for sure.

Are these out in stores yet?

They do have a few new LoC moulds for the Movie line. Megatron looks like a throwing star. Prime looks alright though.

I'm still confused by their names... are they still known as Legends of Cybertron or did they name it to Heroe's or something like that?

Anywyas only a few of the molds are pretty good. Starscream is amazing and Leobreaker is better then his bigger version (more articulated).

You're right, I forgot about those. Okay, scratch that 'potential' part...

I dubbed these "Legends of Classics," but that most likely is not their official name.

I find it kind of funny that you don't like the ugliness of these figures yet are enthusiastic about Spider-Man 3. Guess you didn't see pictures of Venom, Black-Suited Spidey, or 'New Goblin' yet. :P

The "Legends" series seems to move through the various lines. It had Cybertron, Universe (The Botcon Ramjet and SDCC Skywarp seemed to be Universe, not Cybertron), Classic, Beast Wars (Leo Prime) then soon we'll have movie figures.

I like it as it lets me collect mini-versions of some larger figures I wouldn't normally pick up.

I do like Bumblebee as a Chrysler ME 412, Whirl as a Aerospatiale SA 365 Dauphin and Jetfire as a Sukhoi SU-27 Flanker. All great molds. They arn't in scale to each other, but the sizes do work out well for the characters. Bumblebee would stand about 15 feet tall (mini-bot size), Whirl about 23 feet tall (Autobot size), and Jetfire about 54 feet tall (gestalt size!)

Here's a survey though. If they made the Classic Legends in full sized toys, which would you buy? I think I'd get them all so far.

I meant LoC moulds. Besides for the upcoming movie line, all the LoCs so far have been Galaxy Force/Cybertron moulds repainted ad nauseum.
Re: Classic Heroes Wave 2 Galleries Now Online! (48764)

Oddly, there are obvious repaints they still could do.

Optimus Prime mold - Ultra Magnus, Thunderclash

Vector Prime mold - Alpha Trion, Galaxy Force Vector Prime.

Soundwave mold - Soundblaster, Blaster

Thundercracker mold - Cybertron Skywarp

Starscream mold - G1 Thundercracker

Scourge mold - Sky Lynx (as the Japanese exclusive)

Red Alert - Timelines Megatron

I've buy em all!

Bumblebee's ok, but the rest do nothing for me, especially Jetfire. Compared to his bigger brother, LoC Jetfire (using Thundercracker's mold) leaves a lot to be desired.

Did Hasbro lose the rights to the name, Motormaster?

I'm just gonna say that I really dig the Jetfire repaint of Thundercracker, I think it came out really well, and I'll definitely get one if I ever see one.

Something like that.

When they almost released a Universe Motormaster (a repaint of G2 Thunderclash) they had to call him Menasor too. I think hasbro won't barely even make a transformer any more that they can't get a Trademark or Copyright on.

I think when they were rumored to make Spychanger Stunticons they couldn't use the names Motormaster or Dragstrip any more. I always guess that Decepticharge was their new name for Dragstrip.

I had finally gotten that terrible name out of my head when you come along and... :BOOM:
Wasn't the Takara release Dragstrip?

Yeah. That's why in Energon the Omnicon was named Skyblast, or something like that. I think Mattel has the rights to the 'Skyfire' name now. Gah!
