Exclusive Legacy 2 Pack of G2 Leadfoot and Mastodon Fossiliser Revealed

Damn you, now I want a Power Rangers crossover themed repaint to make a Megazord.

We have a T-Rex, a Mammoth, a Pteranodon, and a Triceratops already. There were plans to have a Smilodon fossilizer, but it was cancelled. So the whole set is sort of there already!

I was contemplating getting the regular Mirage version...but this one looks soooooooo much nicer. Plus, finally a modern figure of Leadfoot! And the fossilizer extra looks pretty cool as a mammoth retool.
Didn't want to use Amazon but those Pulse orders sold out fast. I definitely don't wanna scavenge eBay for any scalped orders too.

Seeing Masterdominus now pushes me more to not liking Spindle's colors from being in the middle. Why is Spindle purple and yellow to match Impactor if Masterdominus isn't blue and yellow to match Leadfoot?

I also would rather they have used Siege Mirage instead of Kingdom Mirage regardless of accuracy or anything else. It's just that it's the more fun of the two versions. It has clavicle ports for weapons as well as the ports on the spoiler that go on the sides of the shoulders. They're better for upgrades as well as for arming up with Masterdominus. Sure Kingdom Mirage has the central back port but it's larger than 5mm on my copy making it unusable. I would imagine it's going to be the same on Leadfoot. It's the same on the back of the arm ports for mine as well. It could just be my Kingdom Mirage just isn't toleranced well but it makes me not want any more uses of that mold when the superior Siege mold exists.

Masterdominus though, that is quite the name. It even has front leg extenders that can be used as...things for robot mode. At least it's better than just the single tail sword from Ractonite and Tricranius. Shame there isn't a tail tip of some sort to tie the new leg extenders together into an actual weapon tough. It's nice that the tusks can be used as a weapon as well unlike Ractonite's and Tricranius' head crests. It would've been so nice if they had 5mm ports on them so that the hand pegs could plug into them and use them as shields or something.

Thanks for helping me notice my typo, I dunno how I managed that.

You have a good point in terms of playability involving Masterdominus, but I do personally prefer the look of Kingdom Mirage, especially in vehicle mode. HasTak probably didn't wanna give Leadfoot a sci-fi alien race car mode. (I don't think Siege Mirage's vehicle mode looked really outlandish or fantastical, but that's just my guess as to why HasTak used the Kingdom one.)

I'm happy the leakers were wrong, now I get to enjoy the mammoth man (I know it says mastodon) without having to get a Springer I don't want, and I don't have to worry about Leadfoot (who I already knew I wanted based off the comics showing the design) getting packed with a Jumpstarter or something, it's a win-win! I snuck a Pulse preorder in since I seem to have misplaced the Amazon password, and it appears I did so just in time.

Kinda curious if this means that some of the characters that were rumored/leaked were cancelled and/or shuffled elsewhere though, looking at the boxes, as we have to fit 2 Voyagers and 3 Deluxes into 3 boxes, all of said boxes being smaller than the boxes used containing 2 Deluxes and one of the mystery boxes even being smaller than the other 2....unless the graphic is just inaccurate, but I believe the graphic for Golden Disk was accurate the whole time, right?

Also someone is having way too much fun writing up Masterdominus's TFWiki page, look at that

Well it certainly does raise hope that the jumpstarters will be packed together (potentially the most popular set of the 5) leaving the last 2 to be voyagers.

Nemesis Primal wrote:Also someone is having way too much fun writing up Masterdominus's TFWiki page, look at that

That'd be Walky.

I don't usually like it when Fossilizers aren't a realistic bone colour, but Masterdominus's colour scheme being based on Power Rangers is a cute homage. Also,

MASTERDOMINUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Leadfoot also looks nice, but like Impactor, it's not something I really need. This is another set I'll skip, I suspect that the next three sets will be single figures because of how small the teaser squares are compared to the first two. Or maybe the Jumpstarters can squeeze into one small box together.

I'm liking the second set a LOT more than the first. I had to have my hand held to be shown the differences between the previous Impactors.

The only thing I'd seriously buy for a redo would be Goldbug but with metallic paint (vac-metal). lol

Just like the original:

Instant preorder. Love both.

I was thinking about what the next Amazon line could be after this Wreck N Rule one. This one unlike the last two is Autobot/Maximal only. Having just organized my figures from Siege onward, the Decepticons/Predacons are outnumbered, especially if you're not troopbuilding. It's worse if you take out the Quintesson or Unicron aligned Decepticons/Predacons too.

So what if the next line was all Decepticons for once. I don't know how that would sell as supposedly villains don't sell well or something. But what would it be though? DJD? Scavengers? Another group entirely? It's just I have more fun with the Decepticons than the Autobots as toys since they're more varied in alt modes and even color schemes. It's also annoying that they're outnumbered all the time too. It doesn't even have to be straight Decepticons either. Just not more/all Autobots. So maybe go neither faction and do the Star Seekers?

Cannonball from Siege Ratchet
Ferak from Cyclonus.
Chairman from Perceptor.
Navigator from Iguanus.
One version of that Flamewar we all wanted a while back from Legacy Arcee.
Axor from Wheeljack.
Sandstorm from Spinister or Springer.
Star Dasher from Astrotrain.
Brimstone from Shockwave.
The Dread Pirate crew from TR Pounce and Wingspan as a two pack to easily troopbuild.
Thundertron from Thundertron as a reissue? TR Alpha Trion? a retool of Tigatron?

New Fossilizers could be worked in for other members as well. Maybe the as of yet unseen Energon Monsters can be used for a few like Thunderlane. Not ever member of the Star Seekers had vehicle based alt modes and some weren't even Cybertronian. So it would be fitting to have a few of these in the line as well.

Unlike trying to come up with reuses that won't easily fit like what would end up happening trying to make the DJD out of current molds or making another line of mostly reissues and redos as with the Scavengers, the Star Seekers can be made easily using these same current molds. There's even a decent range of mold sizes too from core to leader. It's also a nice variety of characters from different eras too. Cannonball and Brimstone from Cybertron, Axor from G1, Sandstorm from Machine Wars, Thundertron from Aligned, Flamewar from Botcon and so on.

I just wanted to think of something different so it's not redecos and retools of characters we already have as those same characters again like we do with about half of this Wreck N Rule line. It would also get some reuses from some of those molds as different characters in some cases as well.

But who knows as Legacy is supposedly a one and done line and there's no hints as to what's coming up next. So speculating about a retail exclusive that may or may not happen next year while not knowing what the concept for the main line would be might be pointless.

Leadfoot is an instant add for my Neo-Wreckers crew...just need some patients for some kind seller to split the set so I can buy Leadfoot alone...'nuff said!

Liking leadfoot though it seems hasbro pulse changed their £50 price to £57

If there was to be a decepticon/predacon based subline, flamewar and slipstream would be great. Possibly Strika from legacy bulkhead?

Id prefer magnificus over chairman. Fractyl or Lazorbeak from terrorsaur would be easy. Toxitron from legacy prime. Antagony from the upcoming inferno, anddddd just like that im out of ideas. G2 legacy prime into a generations style dotm Megatron idk

I much preffer this two pack since I do not own that earthrise mirage mold, and I don't own a leadfoot yet which can always enrich my Wrecker troop.

I'd like those better as well but I was trying to go with a single team like theme like the Wreckers. Also, most of those will probably be made in Generations Selects. It would be crazy if they don't finally make a retail Toxitron from Legacy Prime. It wouldn't be cost effective to make a new Perceptor or BW Inferno without doing Magnificus and Antagony from them. Not that there aren't other molds that haven't been reused yet though.

They appear to be Skinny and not Baggy.

Leadfoot looks really nice. Sad they could not include his signature feature: A Rotor.

I'll probably skip this and wait for the Bulkhead repair repaint see what that is.


On an unrelated note, Amazon finally decided to fulfill my Laser Prime pre-order. Shipping sometime next week hopefully. My Dragstrip pre-order is still unclear as to when....

@ Overcracker....Bulkhead repair, what did I miss? My thanks in advance!

Nice G2 figure; shame Hasblo seems to want to bulk up the price with unwanted fluff like Fossilizers. I'll probably slap a Maximal/G2 symbol over the "incorrect" Wrecker ones and paint some more metallic/black paint over some of the bone coloured areas to improve them both.

This might mean that Springer, like Arcee, will get a Studio Series release, minus the cr@pple-damage paint?

Leadfoot is just...*chef's kiss*

Repaint sorry. A Bulkhead repaint is set for this Velocitron line.

Unwanted fluff for you, maybe. Fossilizers are the main draw for some.

Fossilizers are all I care about

Would really love a spindle figure, but it's a shame that it comes with impactor, that figure's an abomination

Gimme those two sets! I never had experience with either Earth Mode Mirage or Impactor, and I'm a sucker for Fossilizers. Any word on an upcoming Wingfinger redeco to complete the trio?

We think Mammoth, they say Mastodon, I say... I can't get a good luck at the skull for ID'ing what it actually is, but the higher ridge indicates it's actually... a Mammoth

Jelze Bunnycat wrote:Gimme those two sets! I never had experience with either Earth Mode Mirage or Impactor, and I'm a sucker for Fossilizers. Any word on an upcoming Wingfinger redeco to complete the trio?

Just these two. The rest of the figures are non-Fossilizers.

Agreed on all of that! Haha and yeah understandable that you were being consistent with star seekers. Main star seekers i like are thundertron and cannonball, and I was trying to think of other groups like mayhem attack squad but I got lazy lol

Man, really loving these repaints and retools. For me there hasn't been a dud yet. So it looks like the last three boxes will mean the Jumpstarters in one box and the Voyagers in one each. Not sure why the boxes are sized the way they are, maybe it has more to do with the graphic than actually fitting the contents.

This isn't the Velocitron line.

I wonder if we're expecting the wrong Bulkhead. Maybe someone got their wires crossed and Springer and Bulkhead are the same figure? Energon Bulkhead in Japan was called Sprung, the Japanese name for Springer. Not saying we aren't getting Springer, but maybe he's got the extra splash of orange from Energon Bulkhead and the leaker got confused by the description they got and the second Voyager is someone else. He'd be awesome with the wright Weaponizer, maybe a repainted Brunt for the claw hands. None of this is likely to happen, it probably will just be a repainted Legacy Bulkhead and repainted Siege Springer. Still interesting that we're only getting one Legacy figure in this line.

Hey, the other day somebody here or on tfw posted a great image comparing the four impactors and his comic Art. I can't find it again! Does anybody know what I'm talking about?

Well, calling it a Mastodon works for the sake of the homage though a pink wingfinger, a blue version of the triceratops mold (forgot the name at this point) and a red Paleotrex would fo nicely. Shame about the sabertooth mind.

So has Undead Big Convoy appeared before? Or is this a new mould?

AllNewSuperRobot wrote:So has Undead Big Convoy appeared before? Or is this a new mould?

It's a retool of the triceratops Fossilizer. There's no new molds in this line.

Yup I'll be surprised if no one tries to frankenstein something out of all of them

Have they shown the Hammer that you get the parts for with these sets?

My son and I did make one out of the existing 6, pretty close to the average 5 member humanoid combining team. I can't find the pics unfortunately, and my son took it apart, but it was pretty cool. With the addition of the 2 new ones, I'm invisioning something very much like Tiamat, that would be Amazing!

Just looked on Amazon... Springer is Today's release for the Wreck and Rule collection.

Up at Hasbro Pulse, too.

Toy-accurate Springer.

was just about to post this myself. I seem to recall people calling this one earlier in the thread. I missed the first release of this mold, and I kinda dig the comic colors with the wreckers autobot logo on him. going to have to get this one. no fossilizer though, and thats mostly what I am after in this series.

Springer looks like he's seasick with that green face...

Cyber-Dramamine FTW

Leadfoot may be an option to get this mold, for those among the many who NEVER saw Kingdom or ER Mirage on the shelf.

DeathReviews wrote:Leadfoot may be an option to get this mold, for those among the many who NEVER saw Kingdom or ER Mirage on the shelf.

No one ever did. There was no Earthrise Mirage while Kingdom Mirage was an Amazon exclusive, just like this Leadfoot is.
