New images of Transformers Legends Bumblebee, Slugslinger, Perceptor and Octane

Posted by Kurona Jul 11, 2017 at 5:43am CDT 22,171 views
Fellow board member Cyberpath has brought to our attention a certain post on Figsoku's blog concerning some new entries in the Transformers Legends line - namely, we finally have pictures of LG54, LG55, LG56 and LG57 -- Takara's versions of Bumblebee, Slugslinger, Perceptor and Octane respectively! While they are only shown in robot mode for now, this gets us not only a great look at the deco changes; but also a little look at Slugslinger's Targetmaster, Bumblebee's Titan Master partner - Spike in an exo-suit - Perceptor wielding a Titan Master weapon redecoed from Ramhorn... and the fact that Octane comes with a bonus Titan Master who appears to be based on Starscream's ghost! Check out the images below and tell us what you think in the forums!

Edit: And thanks to fellow board member Albatross250, we have a post from TFND's facebook which shows off Bumblebee's Vehicle mode and the fact that Titan Master Spike turns into the head of the American version of Cerebros; AKA Headmaster of Fortress Maximus!

LG54 Bee has clear windows and silver rims, they really upgrade his look.

Kind of disappointed that they didn't give Perceptor a new head/face-sculpt. Whoever keeps sculpting these extreme cheekbones (MP-11, MP-12, UW04-Hook, etc) -- stop.

Thanks once again to fellow member Cyberpath and once again through TFND's Facebook, we have yet more images of the very recently revealed LG54 Bumblebee & Spike, LG55 Targetmaster Slugslinger, LG56 Perceptor (with Ramhorn!) and LG57 Octane & Ghost Starscream -- this time getting clearer looks at their Robot modes, a look at their vehicle modes, and a very nice look at the very creepy Ghost Starscream Titan Master. Check 'em all out below and tell us what you think in the forums!

Oh Slugslinger you magnificent beast. You were my very first G1 Targetmaster, I simply must have this modern version.

How much of your soul is left these days Va'al?

They should not have painted Octones shoulder pieces red. I get it's suppose to show possession and when those pieces are down to make him look more like the cartoonbuy they kill his arm articulation.

Gotta say, the extra detailing on Slugslinger's shoulders and quadruple-nipples really help him pop. I do prefer the bottom of the cockpits being white from Hasbro's version though.

Bumblebee is a straight-up improvement, but eh, I'm happy with my Hasbro version.

I admit he looks like Sonic due to the color paint applied. my mind says "Is he gonna collect Rings or some Emeralds?" :lol: :APPLAUSE:

must admit that i was confused as to what that starscream head was supposed to be. An interesting idea but a bit poorly executed i think.

Otherwise some lovely toys, but as usual I'll be sticking to the hasbro versions.

Simple
:TAKARATOMY: Stole Quake's idea and turned it into a minimashed Starscream
Sneaky and Clever-wise :APPLAUSE: :CON:

There's a chance now that me might get an Headmaster of Krok :-?

There's also Quake released in Japan( Hasbro, of course), and Takara Tomy get their creativity of creating a mini-headmaster thus, Ghost Starscream (no not the UW one, the Headmaster one.) is born.

Let's Backtrack a bit, look at Quake's Head
and then look at the Starscream one. Confirmed Repainted

Cheers! well spotted.

Also though I do prefer takara's additional paint apps on the TR figures - that face on spike... looks a bit creepy.
