Thanks to fellow Seibertronian Chuckdawg1999, we have a new video review for a brand new figure from the upcoming Legacy United line, Tasmania Kid! Tasmania Kid is a character from the Japanese Beast Wars II universe, and is part of the first wave of Core Class figures in Legacy United. Let's see what Chuck has to say.
I'm not that familiar with Tasmania Kid, either the toy or the character. I know it comes from the Japanese Beast Wars II cartoon but that's about it. The figure we have here is nice, but I find parts of the transformation fiddly, there will be some lines as is the case with some beast figures. While not the best Core Class figure in United Wave 01, it's not the worst and I know fans of Tasmania Kid will be happy.
It looks like an interesting Core Class figure, with a rather unique transformation. Is anyone adding him to their ranks? Let us know what you think below!
Who's got The Touch? You've gotta touch the dowload button for episode 340 of the Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast! Host Scotty P is joined by Megatronus, Mr. Starscream, Kuhlio, and Aaarnhide19 to talk all about everyone's favorite blowhole Titan Class Tidal Wave as well as box car Wheeljack. Haslab Deathsaurus, however, leaves no room for speculation now that he is in the hands of collectors. If Legacy Jhiaxus is an A and Shadowstriker is an F, this guy is off the grading scale altogether.

Voting for the Transformers Hall of Fame 2023 has opened up. Voting closes on September 17, and the winner will be announced on the 22nd in a Hasbro Pulse livestream.
"Favorite Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 cartoon series) character"
And
"Legacy: Evolution toy of the year"
Now, Sky-Byte was the indisputable breakout star of the RID 2001 series, and made it all the way to the final voting of 2012 Hall of Fame (but lost to Wheeljack). If anyone deserves the win this year it's him, and this could be his last chance.
And, the Hall of Fame has never guaranteed a new toy for the winner. The only fan polls that have resulted in new toys have been the non-Hall of Fame ones, like the ones that yielded Windblade, Victorion, Titan Trypticon, some of the Vintage G1 reissues, etc. So no matter who wins this vote, it won't directly result in a new toy for the winner. All that the Hall of Fame really results in nowadays is a little tiny icon in the top-right corner of a TFWiki page.
Also, Sky-Byte winning this year would be even more meaningful because... well... his voice actor, Peter Spellos, is current battling Stage 3 pancreatic cancer. He's set up a GoFundMe for anyone to help him in this literal fight for his life.
