Better late than never. We finally have official images of the Legion and Warrior Robots in Diguise toys unveiled at the 2017 New York Toy Fair.
Most were found on the show floor but we do have a never before seen figure of Legion Heatseeker, who is a component of Menasor. Some have already been seen before, but never the less, below you will see images for the following figures:

Legion
-Heatseeker
-Starscream
-Cyclonus
-Blurr

Warrior
-Thermidore
-Windblade (masked version)

That legion Heatseeker looks pretty sweet. Dang the cons have been nailing it with this line!

And still with less than half the cons represented!

Windblade looks like a dude with a mountain-man beard and mustache. I'd say, she'd give AOE Hound a run for his money.

I guess I'll have to buy two heatseekers in case they don't make his repaint.

If they made a legion class of every con from the show, I'd buy it. I love how they keep nailing the them

The colors for the mouth guard may have been poorly chosen. My Blastwave needs a companion, but which of the two Windblades?

Does anyone think we'll get Legions for every Stunticon?

If they make a larger figure of Heatseeker, I might just have to get him... that eyepatch thing is awesome.

I smell a upcoming Bulkhead retool from Heatseeker

He's more likely to be retooled into his mold mate Slashmark from the Combiner Set.





By the by, add another Gobots name reused for Transformers:

Gobots Heat Seeker on TFU.info.

Was about to say, yeah! First new TF name taken from GoBots since "Leader-1", right?

If we're counting the classic Gobots, yes. But if we include the Rock Lords, Brimstone and Boulder are more recent reuses. I wouldn't look too much into that though, it may merely be coincidence with the design team unaware of Gobots, especially in the case of Boulder.

my what big hands they have

I bet they wouldn't remould the head, chest and crotch on a Legends repaint if they did make one. What with being an SUV and having a fake eye he looks rather like Silas Breakdown.

I think thats the closest we will ever get Blurr and Cyclonus to G1 on Legion Class... not bad, perhaps I expected more G1 looking like ( I am not big fan of the current generation )

Tell me about it, their music stinks!

I think Heatseeker is another retool of Strongarm.

I checked, and nope, all new.

My little girl is younger than your kids, so she actually preffers more solid pieces that have obvious articulation points. Power Ranger zords are more her thing for now, especially the ones that can also roll. Those stunticons and galvatronus dudes will work really well.

Those ball type deployers were especially fun and did agood job at what the line seemed to be going for. My girl likes those too.

didn't want this to spill too much over in the TR thread...

anyways...I was fortunate enough to get Overload on clearance from HTS near the holidays, plus a promocode, I think I ended up paying $7 for it shipped. But none of the Cyclone Mini-Cons or Crazybolt ever appeared in any stores in my area that I am aware of.

*Some* of the cyclones did appear in Marshalls/TJ Maxx but "Marked Down" from $10 to $7...for something that was originally supposed to be $5, I just didn't see any point in paying that price...but I do wish I would have got the 4 packs...well the 2nd & 3rd ones (I got the first for my son), but I saw the 2nd and 3rd ones a few times at Target, and passed, never knowing that they would be in short supply and go for big bucks on eBay

Wait, the second goes for big bucks? Gotta go pick it up then!

Heatseeker looks great and I hope we get a Warrior. Though to be honest I wouldn't mind getting a bunch of his Legion toy for generics in my Legends collection.

Mini-Starscream actually looks better than the Warrior IMO. Too small for Starscream IMO (he should be Commander sized in a Legends display) but still a cool toy.

Blurr looks OK, he'll do for my Legends for sure.

Cyclonus looks good- I don't want him myself but I can't fault anyone who does, he looks like a neat little toy.

HI I'M WINDBLADE looks OK. The mask is definitely better than the default face but I'd rather have a Windblade with a decent exposed face. That said if the masked version shows up I might customize her into a new character altogether- Windblade's evil Kunoichi sister Deathgale, who seeks to assassinate Windblade and bring an end to her reign over the brand!

Thermidor I actually like better than Bisk, though really I think I need both. They can be a pair of criminal crustaceans together, briney brothers dedicated to causing mayhem for the Autobots!

So, since I still haven't figured out how to attach pictures to the 'Submit News' I've decided to put this here.

Anyway, I've noticed that though there have been pictures of Stormshot, none of them have been that extensive. So here's a few for those who are curious:






This one below is to show that he's not a retool of Starscream like I had originally thought:

One thing you can do is upload them to an image sharing site like Imgur and put the links to them in the message window on the submit news page.

It is also helpful to know what store and area that you found this at.

Thanks. That'll make it easier.
