Product Information

Tarantulas's product description says that he comes with a crossbow and an sic accessory, but Armada Starscream's product description claims that he comes with an energon sword despite both swords being casted in solid plastic. Headmasters: Scorponok | Weirdwolf | Skullcruncher | Mindwipe | Apeface | Snapdragon | Fangry | Horri-Bull | Squeezeplay And still with the excitement about the officially revealed Legacy Motormaster as well as Menasor’s main body, now Hasbro designer Mark Maher is treating us with a great “Behind The Scenes” gallery of the development of this new figure.

https://www.ign.com/articles/new-transformers-generations-legacy-figure-line-announced-by-hasbro EXCLUSIVE: Transformers Debuts Wild Rider, Blitzwing Legacy Figures - on CBR Harness the power of Energon with the Transformers Legacy Series Commander Decepticon Motormaster robot toy! Motormaster wants to be known as “King of the Road” and will run down anyone sharing his highway.Pre-reveal of Legacy on the Transformers Facebook: "Celebrating an almost 40-year legacy of Transformers, universes collide as fan-favorite characters are brought together from across the multiverse, updated with Generations styling. You can harness the power of Energon, with all-new Energon-infused weapon accessories that come with figures across the line." This figure is not compatible with any prior systems of combination. As Legacy Menasor is designed with a specific limb configuration in mind, Wild Rider is limited to being one of Menasor's legs, but unlike Drag Strip and Dead End as the arms, he can be used for either the left or right leg.

Gestalt technology was the product of Nexus Prime's Enigma of Combination in the ancient past of Cybertron, and when it was lost, many dedicated themselves to rediscovering it. The Crucible Perhaps the most unexpected success was that accomplished by Swindle, who stole what little of the technology had been re-engineered, reunited the scattered Stunticons after they were left behind on Earth following the Decepticon evacuation of the planet, and gave them the ability to combine into Menasor. Keeping his accomplishment a secret, Swindle forged a phoney alliance with a splinter group of Autobots led by Hot Rod, but once they had completed construction of the spacecraft to take them off Earth, he revealed his intent to steal the ship and kill the Autobots, and had the Stunticons merge into Menasor before their horrified eyes. Enemies of the System Fortunately for the Autobots, the combination wasn't seamless, and the Stunticons were left with individualized consciousnesses instead of a gestalt Menasor mind. Unfortunately for Swindle's chosen first target, Ultra Magnus, they didn't disagree about killing him...only how to kill him. The arrival of Optimus Prime gave Menasor momentary pause, long enough for Bumblebee to recognize how uncoordinated Menasor's mind(s) was, and instruct the Autobots on exploiting that weakness. By selectively targeting the individual Stunticon components, the Autobots forced them to think of their own safety instead of Menasor's, making the giant easy prey. He was overwhelmed by their firepower, and broken down into separate Decepticons before capture. Earthworks In envy of the Autobots' vehicular modes, Megatron stole various human vehicles and customized them so he could have his own car team, the Stunticons. Before they were given life, he brought them out for a test drive via remote control, forcing them to flip, somersault, fly off the road, drive up cliffs and bash through forests without a scratch. The Stunticons having satisfied Megatron's idea of normalcy, he headed to Cybertron to get Cybernetic personalities for them. He asks Vector Sigma to "fill them with hatred for the Autobots and everything they stand for". On activation, they swore loyalty to Megatron... or at least agreed to do what he told them to. This retooled version of the sculpt (including the sword) was later redecoed for a running change variant of the "Dollar Store"-exclusive version of Optimus Prime, and was also redecoed without the sword as EZ Collection Gum Optimus Prime. A redeco of Thunder Clash (or, more accurately, the Machine Wars Optimus Prime retool) was planned as a store exclusive for the 2003 Universe toy line. Initially it was supposed to be Motormaster, but because the trademark was not available at the time, it was renamed into "Menasor" before being canceled altogether. Though the Generation 1 toy is clearly a single-trailer rig, the seams of Motormaster's transformation were often misinterpreted by artists as being a division between two trailers. Thus, Motormaster is sometimes portrayed as a double-trailer rig, even though the "front trailer" doesn't have any rear wheels.Ability: Lightning Burst - Overcharge the Sparks of your allies, making them deal a percentage of Their damage in an area around them over 5 seconds. Motormaster and the Stunticons were given life by the Creation Matrix, at least inadvertently. Bombshell had "bugged" Optimus Prime with a cerebro-shell and, when the Autobot leader unleashed the power of the Matrix to bring the Aerialbots to life, Megatron was able to tap into and divert some of the energy to bring an equal number of his own troops to life. The Stunticons' first mission was to further the Decepticon plans for anti-Autobot propaganda. Recognizing that the Autobot efforts on Earth were stymied as long as the humans could not tell the difference between the two factions, Megatron had taken great efforts to ensure ALL the "giant robots" were hated by the public. When the Autobot Skids selflessly saved a woman trapped by power lines, however, that good publicity threatened his plans. Therefore, Megatron sent Motormaster and the Stunticons out to find Skids. Once they did, the Stunticons drew attention to themselves by demolishing a highway, and then pretended to be "defending" Skids once RAAT forces arrived. Their efforts not only successfully tarnished the Autobot image in the eyes of the humans, but even led to the deactivation and capture of the Aerialbots by RAAT. Heavy Traffic! Next came the Velocitron Speedia 500 Collection, which focused on characters on the namesake planet participating in the namesake race. The first assortment was revealed on the June 23 2022 Fanstream. A second assortment of Deluxe Class toys was revealed in early October, without prior announcement. [5] Distribution of this second wave of product has been... let's politely call it varied. These toys were Kmart exclusives in New Zealand. In robot mode, he is armed with a long, purple cyclone gun and a large, silver, vacuum-metalized ionizer sword. He also forms the central body of Menasor, with the roller car becoming his chest piece and Menasor's mask covering his face. Menasor's hands and feet were included in Motormaster's box.

We have been down this road before, ad nauseam. It’s usually not so much shelf warming as it is oversupplying. Many of these figures sell reasonably well, but once demand is met, Hasbro fails to get off the gas.BigBadToyStore listing: "Transformers Generations Legacy Evolution Voyager Wave 1 Set of 2 Figures" (outdated, "Evolution" has since been removed) In the early stages of Transformers Animated, redeco possibilities were brainstormed using the existing character models. Concepts for Motormaster and Ultra Magnus, using an early character model for Optimus Prime, were published in Transformers Animated: The AllSpark Almanac. These colors seem to have served as inspiration for the later BotCon toy.
