As always lets get the repaints out of the way. Recon Bumblebee. Wooo. I wonder if this is his undercover N.E.S.T. uniform. I doubt it will fool any con's. Overall, Recon BB is better looking than the wave 1 BB. I used mad photoshop skillz to try and make his photos better.

Tankor is the other repaint in this wave. Brawl from the first movie toy line. Yup a blue tank, a really cool blue tank. I like this color scheme better than the realistic army green. Makes me think of a anime city tank. Maybe not the best for battle, a GIANT red X on his chest. No one said con's were smrt.

Sideways is a new mold for the ROTF line. Audi R8 is his alt. The transfomation is great and has no problem standing, unlike deluxe Sideways. A great match for legends Sideswipe, and I am confident this toy will last longer than he did in the movie. Also the most raccoon looking of all transformers yet.

And at long last, Skids. Similar transformation as Mudflap. Paint is nice and the fit is ok. The robot is great and really completes Mudflap. I've heard the deluxe twins transformation is quite complicated, this is not true of the legends. Also pocket sized, great for bitch talkin' on the go!

I can't wait for Sideswipe to come out, whatever wave he's included in...

As for wave 4, I am loving Sideways. Skids... one of the worst new-mould toys in the Legends class. Despite being VERY simmilar to Mudlfap, Skids fails in every way that Mudflap wins.

Really? I have never seen one in stores... Mind you, isn't Megatron wave 2? I have seen that toy only twice...

Sideswipe and Megatron are both wave 2. Of all the sizes I would say the legends sell the best. The cheaper they are the easier it is to get mom to say yes.

Thanks guys, I've always thought a good photo can do more than any amount of description. Can't wait for wave 5!!!

I saw Tankor in person and he REALLY caught my sight, he was the first one I spotted. I didn't pick him up today but I think I will eventually. His colours are very interesting.
