Newage Legends Scale G1 Insecticons: H-10+ Abadon (Kickback), H-11+ Berial (Shrapnel) & H-12+ Asmodeus (Bombshell) G1 Cartoon Colors Variant

Posted on July 4, 2019 at 3:36 pm by Black Convoy under 3rd Party Unlicensed

3P company Newage had recently revealed their Legends scale Insecticons, and now they surprise us with their first variant: H-10+ Abadon (Kickback), H-11+ Berial (Shrapnel) & H-12+ Asmodeus (Bombshell) in correct G1 cartoon colors.

These small but cool Legends sized Insecticons now show more gray in different areas, that match the colors seen in the G1 cartoon. A very nice option to choose between the toy-accurate first release.

These figures are expected for release by August this year. You may look for a pre-order via our sponsors below. Check the mirrored images after the jump and then share your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

so SG bombshell has red legs in bot mode, but supposed to have a black back section in bug mode, and so NA went with the bot mode red colour as the priority. i think i would have preferred they did the opposite, black legs and red feet.

Red legs look fine on their own, but when put in the group, it makes sense for them to be the same.

You have to blame the SG colorist. If NA went with their own color scheme, they would be "wrong".

Agreed, I think black legs would have been a better choice. Your digibash looks great! It’s tricky because the Diaclone figure shows the inner (red) legs in bot mode mode but closes them up to show the black side in beetle mode. Maybe instead of going with full-red legs a better compromise would have been making them black and then painting a red stripe or patch on them (like you have with the red side vents).

Ah well, still looking forward to the figure a bunch, though!

the more i look at my digibash of bombshell, the more i wish NA had gone this route. if/when i get my set of SG bugs, i think i'll have to mod bombshell either by part swapping and/or paint to fix him up.

I hope ShowZ starts fulfilling orders this week 'cause my Clover is getting hangry!

now let's get to SG constructicons!!!

Thank you

Can someone post images of NA insecticons next to magic square megatron and combaticons (to see how they scale to each other)?
