I believe Fossilsaurus was the purple'ish one. Either way, the Tonka catalog called this one Rockasaurus. Maybe Fossilsaurus was the creature's type and Rockasaurus was its name?
According to the link, "Rockasaurus" also refers collectively to the single rocks that turned into dinos. If I'm reading correctly, the combiner was named "Rockasaurus Rex".

But yes, this would have been a cool idea to produce with the Armorizers.

Genus and species?

I suppose that all the fossilizers are technically rock lords? Fossils being stone and all?
I think I may have enjoyed the rock aesthetic if applied to beasts rather than vehicles. The Fossilizers are named as such, but the molds are more bone than stone in appearance.

I am enjoying the rock vehicles, but I would also happily take rock animals as well. Something like the old Rock Lords Terra Rock or Spike Stone:

But with a robot mode instead of a rock mode.

But, if they wanted to straight up make a new Fossilsaurus/Rockasaurus, I'd buy it.

Im still hoping for a good Sunstorm from the either the Siege Seeker mold of the Earthrise mold. Or an all new mold.

IMO, the only good versions have been the OG E-Hobby, Timlines (Classics mold) and Universe (Armada Thrust mold).

Behold, the guardian of space and time, Legacy United Cybertron Voyager Vector Prime! A perfect time for one of the 13 primes to intervene in what has seemed like, pure interdimensional multiverse insanity.
Working with Yuya san is always a great honor, dude is so talented it leaves me in awe. Also, shout out to Aaron Archer, Eric Siebenaler, and Kunihiro san for being involved in the first creation of such an awesome character.

As my good friend Monzo Matt put it “He’s old, he’s letting his wires hang out”! Partials are always very challenging, but I am pretty stoked as to how this guy turned out. He has his cyber planet key and his rhisling sword casted in translucent teal metallic that really shimmers in hand. I dialed in the grey tone to be darker then the og toy as in the show it seems spot on now. The metallic teals and gold and deep raspberry metallic make this color scheme out of this world.

I also share an image of alot of the sculpt details and deco hits were made to match as best as possible to the animated series. You can see me throwing together the original vision of the partial molding utilizing comic illustrations.

Do the Legacy time portals finally come to an end? What say you!? There’s still time ⏳ for the final showdown, or is there? Arghhh

“I finally understand the true value of time, for it is the bonds between us that give time its meaning.”

I feel like the burgundy forearms and fully-burgundy feet might've made that land better for me, personally.

Yeah the ship mode is not great, but I had to grab mine and see if it can match some of the poses the Legacy one can and it fell short by a lot (doesn't even have elbow swivels). So in terms of posing the Legacy toy wins.
It's up to personal taste, of course, but sometimes I prefer the uncompromised aesthetics and play features of the original versus the better articulation of the Generations update. Articulation is very fun, but so often these days I feel that updates of Beast Wars (TM) and beyond are lacking a finished quality.

I might appreciate these updates more if they weren't trying to hew so closely to the original (and missing). I'd love to see some broader, more creative interpretations of these characters.

It is certainly og Safeguard with new Vector. Override and Metro are anomalies then. She can plug in her og Cyber Key because no new one. He simply can’t attach anything. I wonder if they’ll do a rerelease of Override with a retooled engine gun that has a new Cyber Key at some point.

still, after seeing the new images I am warming to Legacy Vector. I mean, I’m still sad that he’s a retool and not a new mold. But he is looking better.
