First Look at Transformers Legacy Armada Megatron, Titan Class Nemesis and More

Posted by william-james88 Apr 4, 2023 at 12:01pm CDT 78,105 views
Hasbro just had its live stream, revealing several bots. Here are the reveals along with some notes:

-The War Dawn two pack: while it was found in Canada at Gamestop, it is going to be an SDCC exclusive in the US according to the live stream.

- Beachcomber: He comes with a Parrot "slug" accessory. His roll bar folds up and his front bumper becomes his gun.

- Devcon: based on SS86 Blur, but can't tell immediately which parts he shares.

- Axelgrease is a female Decepticon Junkion partial of Scraphook, but very heavily tooled up (looks to be a stock car instead of a toe truck).

- Single retail Dirge was shown.

- Nemesis Leo Prime is exactly what you'd expect. They painted the cat head with pupils this time.

- Armada Megatron looks very cool! Has many of the same features as the original. Teased compatibility with something later in the line! (Tidal Wave??)

- Armada Prime was finally revealed. There's a video of Hasui talking about the figure and showing him next to Megatron. They look really good together. The box is nice with art showing him mid transformation. Pre-orders open 4/18.

- They previewed the Titan Class Nemesis, by showing an unfinished version. They wanted to show it before it got leaked. Bottom fin and split so it can actually land. Bot mode "Last Decepticon" is very lanky and feminine. Comes with some seeker jet slugs. Lots of hidden handheld weapons on her, that was really lacking from the Ark, I guess that's in exchange for not having a Deluxe figure built into her like the Ark. Pre-orders 5/2.

New "Spacebridge" previews (stuff we already know about), all Studio Series stuff: SS Core Bumblebee, SS86 Brawn, SS Games Cliffjumper and Megatron (side note, they've been thinking about this since 2018!), SS RotB Rhinox and Optimus Prime (OP is a Target Buzzworth Bumblebee exclusive, heavy partial of the original Voyager from the Bumblebee movie).

Nemesis looks good.

Armada Megatron looks almost exactly like the recent release.

Armada Prime looks fantastic.

Nonplussed by the others.

The War Dawn two pack looks nice, still not sure I'll be getting it due to other stuff I like more. also it being an SDCC exclusive may hinder my access to it.

Beachcomber looks okay but again seems too big for a so-called minibot, is he going to tower over BB just like Cosmos? I'm beginning to think redoing these are DLX Bots was a mistake and that they should be somewhere in between core and DLX, or at least scales down a bit. Otherwise they're going to have to resize CJ and BB.

Devcon was the most exciting one for me even if it was reuse of Blurr because it looks totally different and accurate to the character. This is the only one I will definitely be buying

Axelgrease has an interesting and cool looking color combo in bot mode and that's about it for me, don't know if that's enough to warrant me buying her though.

Nice to finally get Dirge out again, hopefully a few others will follow soon.

Nemesis looked amazing even if it's still unfinished! This is the only other one that really got a reaction out of me, and while I'd like to say it's a day one purchase/preorder that just isn't the case. I have to be frugal with so many other priorities ATM so I'll have to wait for a sale unfortunately.

As for the rest of the livestream nothing else interested me.

Hmm, no, I mean, they are similar, because they are based on the same guy, but he's pretty different to the Combiner Wars version which is the most recent one we've gotten. Different tank mode, and very different robot mode body style.

Combiner Wars:

I think they only thing missing is his little shiv in his left palm and Leader One. Sad no Minicon made the cut. also, don't think he has the minion capture chamber on his leg.
The swiveling turret, the movable missile launcher (no launching missiles this time).
The extending waist...


All there.

Nemesis looks pretty good, definitely better than The Ark. Can't wait to see the finished product. I was looking forward to Megatron, but I'm underwhelmed. Still gonna preorder him, but I'll rely on comparison to the original.

I was surprised by Devcon, he looks pretty good. I already have adequate versions of Dirge and Beachcomber, so I'll pass.

And then Ark and Nemesis' eyes locked...
and love was in the air....
Sorry, I'll stop now.

One shame about the UT characters getting new toys is they lack all the features of their earlier figures. But I guess that's the trade off for better articulation.

Comment by william-james88 Apr 4, 2023
I liek Axlegrease but I really do not want a Lockdown remold out of it. It's already a remold and it isn't at all the type of sleek tall body that would work for lockdown. Lockdown is a pretty major character with a legacy of his own, he should get a new toy. And Axelgrease redeco/retool would just be a placeholder and I aint got space for any more placeholders. I thought we were done with stuff like that.

That would actually be a hilarious set-up for a cartoon episode.

Finally, more Armada figures WITHOUT the one thing the show literally revolved around and made it special. Just what everyone wanted.

I love that Armada Megs.

Nemesis is not too bad looking. I'm curious to see the finished product.

As for that Dark Leo Prime, it's so SEXY!

The Earthrise 2-pack one never had any to begin with.

Comment by DeathReviews Apr 4, 2023
We just had the latest Hasbro Transformers Legacy update! What does Death think...?

Core Dinobots Scarr and Swoop: Well, I wasn't tempted by any of the OTHER core Dinobots - so I'm not tempted by these either. Pass. I like the Leader Studio Series Dinobots better, that's all :).

Beachcomber: Only thing that's tempting, but not enough to pre-order. The Legends size version from Titans Return is still pretty good, and, based on what I see, not much smaller than the new 'deluxe' version. The only thing I'd be missing is the 'evo fusion' parakeet. Pass.

Devcon: It's neat that they devoted time and energy to making a figure from a throwaway character in the G1 animated series who was only seen once. But I never liked that episode, really - the only thing that might have made me go for it is if it contained a "Sleezardo" mini figure :). Pass.

Axlegrease: I've shied away from the Junkion figures in Legacy so far, for one simple reason - they're weaponizers, and I got tired of that in the Siege/Earthrise lines. Pass.

Nemesis Leo: Didn't like it in the normal colors, don't even like it in black. Pass.

Dirge: Already got this one (and Ramjet) from the Earthrise Two-pack. No need for another! Pass.

Armada Megatron: The only other one that tempts me, simply because it's Megatron. But looking it over? I don't think I like it enough to pre-order. It's an H-Tank, and that automatically loses points with me. I like my tanks nice and solid, not with a big ol' empty space in front. I never liked the Shrapnel horns on his head, or the shoulder pads. And it's got the tank turret just sticking on his back, it doesn't look like they did anything with it, really. Looks like it would really hinder the articulation in robot mode. Tentative pass.

So - it looks like there was almost NOTHING in this round that motivates me to buy. Shame, really. But don't let that stop the rest of you! If you like these, go for it!

Although - I am tempted by that Nemesis Titan...

We're you expecting Megatron to be like the recent release? Hence inaccurate to the source material?

Axelgrease and Core Dinos will be pre-ordered as soon as Amazon Listings are available (Scar pre-order still isn't on Amazon as of this post). Nemesis definitely looks cool. Adding the AIRLOCK connector wasn't necessary, but its a nice touch, but it will also make The Ark stand out more as the only modern Generations Citybot/Playset (aside from T30 Metroplex) that cannot be connected.

Dark Leo Prime actually has painted eyes in Lion Mode :shock: . Looks way better as most of us figured it would.

It's a shame isn't it? Especially given that if the ark had airlock compatibility, it would be possible to do the boarding scene properly as a display.

Megatron is the king of the wave with Devcon as a close second and the Nemesis is looking amazing. I skipped the Ark and don't regret it, but this giant decepticon is probably a must get.

Nemesis and Armada Megatron look great. And Devcon was a pleasant surprise.

Comment by Razorbeast88 Apr 4, 2023
That Titan Nemesis is looking pretty awesome. Not too into titans so that'll be a pass for me but alt mode looks great

I'm skipping on core dinobots as well

Armada Megatron is looking pretty well done! Not my cup of tea but that's a good figure and fingers crossed for Tidal Wave

Armada Prime isn't really for me either. But if they do the powerlinx one that's mostly blue with some red highlights I just might

Not really interested in coneheads but glad for those missing Dirge

Nemesis Leo/Copy Convoy I'm on the fence about. I like the idea of having the character but not sure if I want to double dip on that mold. To be fair I've double dipped on every other cat bot, so..

Axelgrease isn't really doing it for me either. The colors look great and it's always nice to have more fembots, alt mode looks great too. But decepticon junkion just isn't it for me, I don't see that fitting into my collection unless they make more and they're all really cool

Beachcomber looks good, the bird is a nice touch. The alt mode is awesome. Never been into the character though, so I'll wait on Sandstorm as my buggy bot

Devcon is cool. Can't even tell where blurr was used on this guy. Happy to finally add this character into my collection, mayhaps I'll use him as a mandalorian type character. Showing his face makes him a permanent apostate though so idk

Okay I see blurrs toes on devcon now lol

Only thing I don't like is his face. He looks so friendly. He's a bounty hunter, make him look more menacing
