Takara Tomy Transformers Legends G2 Megatron, Targetmaster Windblade, Clone Set in Figure King 236

Looks like maaybe AmiAmi has them in too? I don't know the site's layout well enough to be certain, but it looks like I can pay for Kup (the only one I ordered) now so I think they're ready to go

The scan below includes G2 Megatron, Targetmaster Windblade, and the second Clone pack - check it out below.

anyone know what the DVD is?

Interesting that despite the new arms, Kup clearly shares the elbow joint and part of the shoulder.

Takara did so well on these...especially Kup.
I can't wait for these to ship.

No alt mode pics?

Come on HLJ.... any time now....

I didn't expect remolded parts on these guys - very nice. These hit my Anime Export account the other day, and I'm excited to get them in.

Welp, I've slammed the pay button on my Kup order from AmiAmi. Really wish I hadn't ended up paying nearly Voyager-price for him but it's a hell of a lot better than not getting it at all. He should hopefully be turning up at my door in about a week or two

From what we've seen, that's how LG Hot Rod is engineered. Retooled chest with new engineering - so there's no foldy-bit on the abs, and the engine disappears in robot mode. (It achieves this... somehow; it either stays on his back and there's a collar-piece under the car, or the engine piece flips over to become the collar-piece. I don't think we actually know for certain how it works yet, and that'll be the difference between whether you can have the engine on his chest if you want or not.)

This is quite a flaw for me Takara...WTF?! Well maybe Toyhax can make a damn decal to put on his freakin' chest.

Thanks for the comment Qwan!

As a follow-up to the comparison images we posted here, we also have a full slate of stock images from the Takara Tomy Transformers Legends LG-44 Sharkticon and Sweeps, LG45 Targetmaster Hot Rod and LG46 Targetmaster Kup, in their alt-mode, robot mode, and with Targetmasters and Titan Masters posed in various ways!
