This is going to flop. I wouldn't spend a dime on it.
This is less than meets the eye or more crap than meets the eye, I don't know what to choose from.

Since I don't collect Legends figures I didn't even realize it was basically a reskin on an existing BB, that sucks.

Yeah I know, horrors !!! After all these WW2 vechicles somebody might compare Good ol Bumblebee to Hitler. Forget about Lugnut looking like the Enola Gay. Forget that Highbrow looks like the P-38 Lightning that won the battle of Midway. Forget Divebomb looks like the Red Baron. Lets pick on poor little Bumblebee instead because he is such a war-monger

They're trying to give germany a clean new slate free of the past... don't want a poor jewish kid to see the beetle, and then transform it, and then see the gun in his hand, and tear up.... and have a wierd memory that...is more of a day dream nightmare about a big robot beetle running around commiting genocide, riiigghhhttt?

I'm sorry but that looks horrible. I've seen worse, but I've seen much better looking pieces. I'm not into Legends but if I was I'd pass on this.

Definite pass. I didn't buy that mold to begin with. Not sure what i-Gear is thinking with this.

Well frankly I’m not impressed I was hoping for a entirely new figure I was looking forward to a scout bumblebee that turned in to a modern beetle

The only possible good thing about this is we'll probably see it on clearance because nobody wants it.
They should cancel this altogether.
I was hopping for them to take a similar approach to Wheel_Jacks custom Classics Bumblebee:

Guess it's not gonna happen.

I just don't get it, why would they.... Or anyone bother with a 3rd party retool of a cheap, limited articulation, jokey figure like a legends.... Well I guess it'll be cheap to make.. Do I sense a ripoff price coming? Because of 'exclusivity'?

The only legends figure I've ever liked is legends Ravage. Everything else blows.

Man, this just makes Igear look even more unoriginal, as they continually rip off existing moulds.
I hate that legends mould too, I had the Takara Cliffjumper among many of my legends figures. It was the only one I sold because I just don't like the mould.

Good lord, that's horrendous. I completely retract my previous comment.

Actually, the Legends Scorponok is pretty good. It's got better proportions in robot mode than the Deluxe figure.

Considering his contributions to the creation of Volkswagen in the first place... but SHHHH don't mention that, if it turns into a robot and shoots other robots, that's REALLY bad!
