Target is getting another 4 pack this year, as we've gotten in the previous three years. And we now know what it includes thanks to some leaked images.
The content of the exclusive pack are:
G1 Squeezeplay based on the Titans Return Mindwipe mold
Prime Cliffjumper, based on the Legacy Chase retool
Cyberverse Tarn, based on the Legacy Tarn mold (seems to just be a redeco)
Orange BW Tarantulas, referencing the early toy ads and cross sell images, based on the Kingdom Tarantulas mold (sporting the robot head rather than the mutant head)
Thanks to Notrab on Weibo, we have new in hand images of some big ticket Transformers items soon coming our way.
They have in hand images of Legacy United Tidal Wave, Magmatron and the Target Exclusive Target Optimus and Bullseye set. Of course, these images are enhanced with filters, to make the toys look as good as possible. We go get good shots of all of Tidal Wave's many modes. Enjoy!
It was only officially revealed less than a week ago, but we can now confirm that Legacy United's only new Wave 2 Core Class figure, Beast Machines Cheetor, has been found at retail in the U.S. While most retailers show a shipping date of April 1st, he can be found now in stores. This example was found at a Target in Centerville, Utah, along with his repacked Wave mates, Energon Megatron and Infernac Bouldercrash.
If Wave 1 distribution was anything to go by, the rest of wave 2 should trickle into stores in the next couple of months.
Have you found any new or newly announced figures in stores in your area? Please let us know, and let us know if you plan plan to pick up the latest addition to the Legacy United line.
Thanks to Seibertronian chuckdawg1999, we have a great first look at the not quite yet revealed Studio Series Concept Art Sunstreaker! Chuck takes the figure through all the usual paces, giving us the best look yet at his transformation and articulation. See what he has to say below.
Sunstreaker is another fantastic figure that is released during a period when Hasbro is releasing many great figures. Transformation is smooth, intuitive, and easy. While Concept Art figures might not be your style, this is just a great transforming toy.

For those who missed the days of Takara showing us their take on a Transformers toy deco, there’s the Dramatic Capture Series. This 3 pack has Soundwave, Megstron and Shockwave as well as the throne accessory. We saw stock images before and now we can see the box and final deco on the toys. Enjoy
With the Transformers Legacy United Wave 2 figures finally available everywhere online, we now have the case contents from Entertainment Earth. They show us who is repacked in the core, deluxe class and leader class and we also see that since the voyagers come 3 per case, Starscream becomes the shortpacked figure there.
Here you go, what many of you asked for: preorder for Transformers Legacy United Wave 2
Some have already sold out, like Gears, Chromia, and Silverbolt, depending on the retailer. So below we have a couple of place to get each of these toys.
Rundown of a couple small things mentioned in the stream today:
- Shard is female (I think we knew that already) and made of Death Crystal and inspired by Rocklord Solitaire (somehow).
- Cybertron Starscream shares joints with Siege Tetra Jets.
- Hasbro allowed Takara Tomy to show off Silverbolt early.
- They're looking into a way to get the unmasked head out there for Sandstorm.
- Next livestream is going to be another random one (merch, publishing and whatnot)
This is actually good news. Many fans bemoaned the idea of having open windows since it would lead to theft or missing accessories and Hasbro is answering one particular concern with how Gears is packaged. His chestplate is not pinned and so can be detached. So, what Hasbro did is have it stored in a bag within the box instead of affixed on the chest where it might be removed.
Also, we are letting you know so that you don't think the toy is missing its chest when you see it at retail.
The wave 2 toys have been found in Singapore in a collector shop by Jhund the Jester, as well as other areas in Asia, and should be hitting North American distribution next month, at least online.
