Coming to us once more from PrimeVsPrime on Youtube, we now have a photo gallery of the much-anticipated Transformers Legacy Deluxe Tarantulas!
Tarantulas is looking very faithful to his Beast Wars cartoon design here, albeit with a more “realistic” tarantula mode. He’s shown off in both of his modes and is also compared with other recent Generations Beast Wars figures as well.
Check it out after the jump and let us know if you’re interested in picking him up on the boards!

That looks incredible! Especially considering the sculpted detailing is on his legs. Congrats on finding a metallic yellow paint that matches the rest of Tarantulas.

I mixed yellow and gold Gundam Markers and used a paint brush to apply it.

Looks amazing. What yellow did you use?

Looks fantastic. Definitely plan on getting him by the end of the month. Honestly wish the tips of the legs had little 3mm pegs for the machine gun legs but that's super minor complaint.

Tarantulas is another reason I find Hasbro so hard to believe when they cry poor with budget restraints. They skip sculpted areas that were clearly designed to be painted, but then give the figure a second weapon it doesn't need at all.
You got money to pay for fake mustaches, huh? Gettin' real tired of you ducking me, Hasbro.
SPLIT LIP
Pardon the late reply, but yes!

Do you have a link? I keep missing him at Target (the rest of the wave is there) and I'm getting impatient as hell.

Do you have a pic of your paint apps?

It’s light but not fragile. All the joint parts feel solid and he’s pretty chunky.

a friend told me he had it in its hand and though it felt too "light" and that he thinks it might be fragile or something, could someone who owns it tell me if it is fragile or anything or is just light?
SPLIT LIP
He honestly is. I added the missing paint on his tummy and legs but even before he was pretty great. He looks fantastic with Blackarachnia.
He's possibly my favourite BW update out of the last two years along with BA, Primal, and Airazor.

I have two pre-ordered from Amazon, but got sick of waiting… just ordered him from Walmart and had him shipped.
What a fantastic figure. Really blown away by his sculpt.

Enjoy. He's a great figure.

I went to my local Target store today, and found only 1 single Legacy wave 2 deluxe figure on the shelves, and I have two words to say about this…

Always thought they were counterparts.

I think Wildrider is pretty Solid, and the jazz mold is really good, so it's good to see it again. Elita has a few things I'd change… So I think Elita took the hit.
Actually Tarantulas is pretty simple, just well colored and painted.

Studio Series ROTF Starscream has a spinning saw accessory.

"Goodbye, MINIMALS!"
He had the best faction-based insult of the entire series. I've lost interest in collecting G1 recently, but looking at more pics and reviews of this guy makes me happy. I so do hope thT the fuzors, Rampage, and Depth Charge are released.
