Spent the morning getting Magic Square Bruticus together and my lord the amount of intricate details in these little legends is bananas.

There's some molding issues in small spots throughout but nothing that would make me demand refunds or anything like that.

The Legends scale arms race has resulted in some minor miracles in the last couple years. It really is remarkable.

Nothing new on the Legends stream.

Next week is focused on "pop culture, music, and publishing", whatever that means.

Strongly hinted at the TMNT crossover, though.

Preorders are starting to go up for the most recently-revealed characters. Nothing up on Amazon Canada yet, though, and Walmart Canada lists Sandstorm as not available :(

Hoping I have better luck with Big Bad and Gears than I had with Beachcomber.

I got my preorders in with a few places, but the dates seem all over the map, especially considering that people have already legitimately purchased some of the figures weeks ago.

I really hope they're prepared for the TMNT crossover, stock-wise. Unless the figure's a complete dog it's going to be really popular. If it somehow sells out an hour before the show even starts they need to just pack it up.

There's still the tetrajets

Have they rereleased them with clean decos? Maybe they would do that.

I dig it! It's a bit kibbly and I'm not sure how I feel about the whole front of the vehicle just coming off to be used as a shield(?), but otherwise it looks about how I'd expect.

Now to see how much it'll cost.

That's neat and all, but I'd rather spend the extra money on the Heat Boys version that was announced a while back.

I am reminded of the Turtles Transformers back in the day where like, construction worker Michelangelo transformed into a bulldozer and his little head was in the driver seat.

Edit:

MP Ginrai. I really hope they go all the way with this, I'd like to replace my titans return/legends one.

Pretty much a must-have for me. I've avoided all of these weird collabs but this works really well, the colours just scream classic TMNT figures and it works well as Transformers colours too, looking slightly similar to Bludgeon.

Damn. I don't care for this form of him. But if they're doing this, surely God Ginrai needs to be a thing? I'm guessing it will be ridiculously expensive when it turns up, but being a comic guy, Powermaster Prime is my main Optimus. I'd much rather pay whatever stupid price he'll be ($400?) than $300 for regular Optimus.

I think Hasbro said that they don't peg the classes at different sizes anymore, either. It's now down to the amount of plastic/engineering included.

I think the turtle's at least a Voyager. Seems too much for Deluxe.

More unique characters being exclusively contained to 4-packs is frustrating.

That could be the most random pack ever. Who wants all of these characters? I could see lots of people wanting just one of them, but paying for three extras is just silly. Also, another mega obscure G1 character off the checklist.

That's how these four packs usually roll, though. I can't remember the last four pack where I wanted all four. But each of these probably has a place especially since Tarn is long gone (I think) from shelves.

New TF collab listings leaked. The Star Wars one is predictable but the other, at long last - Knight Rider.

7 inches - which is....I don't know scale, haha. I think Voyager? My concept of toy size has been completely screwed up by going mostly 3rd-party in these past few years, I consider MMC's Reformatted line to be "normal" sized now.

Ok, 7 inches is not bad. That's definitely Voyager scale. I wasn't expecting it to be any bigger.
