Hasbro reveal - Legacy w2 & Robosen Trailer

[griffin]

Pre-orders are now up on Amazon Australia, as Australian stock.

The dates are a bit weird though, as the dates on the product page appear to be different to the arrival dates on the checkout page (like the Shattered Glass Ultra Magnus says that it will be released September 15th, but will arrive at your address between August 4th to 8th... which means time travel if true).
Considering how late the dates are on Amazon America compared to their official release dates from Hasbro, maybe see the dates as the latest they will be released by, and that they are most likely released a month or two before that.

Shattered Glass
LDR Ultra Magnus - $104 SEP 15th

Legacy
LDR Blitzwing - $97 AUG 15th
VOY Gen2 Jhiaxus - $53 AUG 15th
DLX Knock Out - $37 AUG 15th
DLX Wild Rider - $37 AUG 15th
DLX Tarantulas - $37 AUG 15th
DLX Elita-1 - $37 AUG 15th

Re-release Siege Soundwave without battle damage paint (jet version, not Netflix tape player) (probably in Legacy toyline) - not listed.
CMDR Motormaster - not listed, as it is being released in June for a toy sale first, before being released later in the year at other retailers.

The Amazon link for Jhiaxus has it called Straxxus (the dark blue Decepticon from the Marvel Gen1 comic).

The Hasbro Pulse listing for Shattered Glass Ultra Magnus says that it will come with the first issue of a 5 issue comic... but I wonder if it is just the same 5 issue comic series that came out with the first set of five toys.

Includes: Ultra Magnus figure, alt head, armor, blaster, axe, and sword accessories, and instructions.

• Part of the Shattered Glass Collection
• Leader Class figure
• Figure depicts the powerful Autobot general, Ultra Magnus, with deco and details inspired by the Shattered Glass universe
• Converts from robot to truck mode in 12 steps, then to armored truck mode in 16 steps
• Features purple Autobot logo and comes with blaster, axe, and sword accessories
• Includes an alt head and armor accessories that attach to the figure
• Comes with the first of a 5-issue IDW Shattered Glass miniseries with a Hasbro Pulse exclusive variant cover you can only get with the figure, featuring spot UV

Shattered Glass
LDR Ultra Magnus - $104 SEP 15th

Legacy
LDR Blitzwing - $97 AUG 15th
VOY Gen2 Jhiaxus - $53 AUG 15th
DLX Knock Out - $37 AUG 15th
DLX Wild Rider - $37 AUG 15th
DLX Tarantulas - $37 AUG 15th
DLX Elita-1 - $37 AUG 15th

EBGames/Zing have put up the same toys as well for pre-order, for those who don't like using Amazon...

Shattered Glass
LDR Ultra Magnus - $118 AUG 1st

Legacy
LDR Blitzwing - $118 JULY 1st
VOY Gen2 Jhiaxus - $58 JULY 1st
DLX Knock Out - $45 JULY 1st
DLX Wild Rider - $45 JULY 1st
DLX Tarantulas - $45 JULY 1st
DLX Elita-1 - $45 JULY 1st

The prices are significantly higher, but a lot earlier than Amazon dates... which I think are unreliable at this stage anyway. But was also know that EBGames dates are pretty unreliable too, so... maybe pick a date between the two and that's when they will be out.
(July seems a little too early anyway, because wave 1 was originally going to be released in June-July, so we wouldn't be getting wave 2 that soon after wave 1)

Going back over the wave 1 pre-orders on EBGames, it had Leader Gen2 Laser Optimus for release June 1st... but word from Hasbro Australia is that the Leader class won't be released until July, so either it is being held back for some reason, or EBGames have the wrong release date (copying the date of the rest of wave 1).

RE: Elita-1
I'm happy to just hang onto my WFC Elita-1 and skip the Legacy figure anyway. If she gets pre/retooled as Minerva, then Hasbro can shut up and take my money.

As Minerva would say, "EH!"

P.S.: I wouldn't mind seeing TL Elita-1 getting repainted as a TAXI with that protruding head being the taxi sign. We need more taxi TFs, damnit!
(now if only we could have a bus and chicken...)
