Transformers Legacy Wreck N’ Rule Collection Springer Color Prototype Images

under Generations / Classics

Courtesy of Hasbro designer Mark “Markclonus” Maher on Instagram we can share for your images of the color prototype of the recently revealed Transformers Legacy Wreck N’ Rule Collection Springer.

Mark’s comments give us some “behind the secenes” info about this redeco, confirming that it was inspired by the classic G1 Springer toy. To top it all, he also shared some images of Springer combined with the new Fossilizer Masterdominus revealing that this one was planned for a cohesive color fossilizer armor experience with Springer.

You can already pre-orders Springer and the other Wreck N’ Rule Collection figures from earlier in the week:

Though, how do you pronounce Spindle's Name? Do you pronounce it "Spin-dle" or "Spine-dle"?

While I certainly admit the "Spine-dle" idea is clever, I could never bring myself to pronounce a word spelled that way any way other than "Spin-dle."

Siege Springer definitely has some qc issues. I had to put Kiki on his ankles because he was completely incapable of standing on his own. He's also a pain to transform. Looks good in my display though, other than the battle damage paint. I'm hoping the inevitable SS86 version will improve his ankles in addition to eliminating the battle damage paint.

Mediocre? Really? He wasn't THAT bad.

He wasn' THAT bad. He was mediocre. I didn't say he was a dumpster fire.

I dig the Siege Springer mold, too.
What I wish was designed differently are the little side fins in helicopter mode. They look a bit too obviously like open arm panels.
And that the backpack actually tabbed in so that it wouldn't shift every time I pick him up.
As for problems with my copy, the ankles are way too loose and the swords like to fall off the sides of the backpack at the slightest nudge.

I actually really like the Siege Springer mold. I just wish his knees tabbed in a little better.

Waiting for a Core/Legends scale then?

Nope! Just skipping it altogether. I don't have any connection or nostalgia for this repaint. He looks cool but I don't need it.

I think Roadbuster needs to be voyager scale from a new mold (not a Bulkhead retool). I worry if Hasbro can pull him off at voyager height with a beefy physique, no big hollow spots, and traditional weapons load out all at the current voyager price point.

No, he would need to be a leader class to be the proper BEEF

They couldn't do all that in 2014 or whenever, so now is impossible.

The 2014 toy is terrible. You couldn't pay me to put that on my shelf again. Ugh.

I loathe that I slept on getting T30 Roadbuster. Now that leader class means parts count over size, I wouldn't mind if we got a new Roadbuster right around now. I think we're good for it.

I mean, you're not wrong, but that's from 2008. Would Hasbro still be as ambitious as they were then?

Add in enough remolding and extra goodies and they can hit it with leader class pricing. Of course … even using those molds with zero hollow spaces will make the Hasbro execs scream in agony.

You know, I wouldn't be fussed if we don't get a Whirl. If Mastermind's Whirl scales well, I might buy it for the time being.

MMC Turben? He's about Prime Wars Voyager height, personally I think he scales pretty well
