As pointed out by Seibertron, this seems pretty damn likely…

My Jhiaxus' head is good and floppy but I still think he's one of the best figures this year.

So, if it wasn’t obvious, Legacy got wave 4 axed. Shouldn’t be surprising given wave 3 will barely make it out in 2022 (and YMMV in that regard)

The leakers put forth the original idea was that wave 4 was going to be Breakdown (to complete Menasor) with reships of Wheeljack and Cheetor. So, I guess we missed those two in Legacy boxes. Wouldn’t be the first time, Starscream got his rerun in Kingdom cut (presumably because of the Coronation Studio release).

Wave 3 allocations are shipping this week in the UK...

Having said that it's not a great loss given Breakdown is going to Evo Wave 1.

My Jhiaxus' neck is fine. The issue with mine is that his right leg doesn't lock together like the left one does, so the thruster in his calf flops around freely.

It's been noted that a car Junkion on the poster could be retooled into Lockdown and Shadow Striker.

Edit: Also note, the Spacebridge above Leo Prime is like the ones from Animated, and given the series having Matrix bearers, there's a chance Optimus may have the Armada Matrix.

Yeah, that car is very clearly a Lockdown pre-tool. I'm super excited about this because Lockdown was one of Animated's many great contributions to Transformers, and him being one of these new transformable-as-is yet also pull-apartable Junkions is perfect for a character that, canonically, is always replacing bits of himself with better bits he removes from his captured bounties. In fact, I couldn't help but notice that Scraphook's tow hook would work nicely as Lockdown's hook hand.

Uh huh. Slag becomes the upper body while Sludge becomes the lower body meaning Grimlock will become the left leg, Skar the left arm, Snarl the right leg and Swoop the right arm.
There's absolutely definitely one hundred percent no chance this is a precursor to Dinoking.




Except, it is. One Hundred Percent.

I've also noticed that Dinoking's anime/manga appearance always had his chest look more like Kakuryu's shell's head than it does on the G1 toy (where it's technically still a creature head, but from his inner robot's alt-mode), so they don't even need to retool him to transform differently.

The only question is the color scheme. Will they be colored like the inner robots, or the shells? There is no way to do both here.
