    The combiner groups get legends sized version repaints which I really dig. (Hot Spot, Hungrr, Scattershot, Razorclaw, Silverbolt) Lovely idea for repaints. Much better than random stuff and they join Legends Motormasters very well!

    A few Cybertron voyagers get fugly repaints...

    Dropshot = Cybertron Scattershot. I love the original mold but those colours are fugly.
    Heavy Load = we've seen before, Cybertron Quickmix
    Blades = Cybertron Evac (duh) but a terrible paint job. I'm glad to be getting mine from Stencilator!
    Acid Storm: kind of works. Seekers always seem to work though why not Sunstorm kinda bugs me

    I knew this was gonna happen . I blame this 1000% on a certain A. Archer.

    Now don't get me wrong, some of those paint jobs don't look that bad (Acid Storm but not-so-much Dropshot) but honestly - I am just so sick of this sh#t! Friggin Repaints! It makes me wanna put my foot through my Monitor...

    Damn You Archer! Damn You to Hell!!!

    That 'jungle' seeker looks plain awful.

    I don't dig this at all. I too blame Archer

    I'm happy, I missed out on cybertron so I'm glad that some molds like evac are getting a repaint.

    Aww man- for a sec I thought you meant that there was a legends class combiner set- That would be cool. This, not so. >_> XD

    To be fair, at least many of the repaints have some sort of focus. Few of them really appeal to me (maybe Blades), but it's nice to see them being based on old G1 characters. And not the same six that are constantly revisited, as well.

    One thing that kind of bugs me is w/ the Legends and some of those Voyagers, they aren't realistic Earth modes. That's what Hasbro are supposedly aiming for. I hardly count the Evac or Quickmix mold as that. Nor the Blaster from Soundwave.

    It just riles me that there is such inconsistency.

    Anyway, what I'd love to see is a repaint of Energon/Cybertron Scorponok into G1 Scorponok. That would be love.

    That Galvatron's been seen before. And I'm still pretty disappointed by it. It shouldn't been larger. At least a Voyager and if nto that, an Ultra. Scale rating for that toy will be woeful.
