Via a post in the Cybertron Philippines FB group we can confirm our first world sighting of the new Transformers Legacy Evolution Wave 4 Deluxe in the Philippines.
Legacy Evolution Breakdown, Armada Universe Hot Shot, Needlenose and Scraphook were spotted at several Toy Kingdom and Toys”R”Us stores in Manila. It’s good to notice that Breakdown still comes packaged with the first Evolution packaging style and colors, so your Legacy Stunticons set boxes will still match.
We hope this means that these new figures may show up soon at US retail and other countries.

I know we've been seeing some Hotshot in-hand pics, but where's pictures of the rest of the wave? I need to see the crazy things people do with Scraphook.

None in wave 1 and really SS next year is ROTB, WFC and SS86 with only one know Bayverse figure being Core Bumblebee.

Damn ! So that would mean no 86 guys in wave 1 ? I guess it’s to be expected. The SS sub-brand now include the Bay movies, the Bee movie, the 86 movie, that upcoming WFC (games ?) and now the upcoming ROTB movie. It’s impossible to please everyone in every waves. It’s also expected that the new movie will take most of the spotlight.

I feel like Scourge is mid year and Snarl is fall. Just so the character is out when the movie is basically out in theaters.
Brawn I think is in wave 2. Same for Ratchet.

If you're basing this on Pulse there's a reason why people don't take that site seriously (a lot of reasons in fact but that's one of them).

Wave 4? Pretty sure this is Legacy Evolution Wave 1.
Why are they getting this so early? The Hasbro preorders are only for 2023 Jan.

I was talking about the aesthetics, not the function as that had already been mentioned in querying the apparent lack of it in the final release examples we've seen so far.
AtomicGarden
86 Brawn as well hopefully

Unfortunately Snarl is likely to be a summer release. Wave 1 is likely to include Leader ROTB Primal, with Snarl being a mid year release, and Scourge being a fall release.

Hopefully the next SS reveals, based on the listings found back in July, are WFC Bumblebee, WFC Barricade, and SS86 Snarl!
TF Hot Rod
I didn’t even think of this. That is true and I would gotta assume that they are or at least very close to being in U.S Ports. Waiting on them to be revealed. Like the ROTB toyline toys.

Generally between Redcard and Target Circle offers it often pays to buy it through Target. Preordering through Target however is a fucking headache, and through WFC up til Legacy Wave 1, I haven’t had a problem finding mainline figures in-store. Three out of four Commanders were purchased from the store. The SS86 Dinobots were bought in store from Target and Walmart.
But after Legacy’s 1st wave, for whatever reason, distribution for mainline figures got real weird. Motormaster was instantly gone. Plenty of store exclusives at both, but hardly any stock of Wave 2. Even for the Xmas restock: Walmart doubled down on Velocitron and SS. And it’s not hard to find a Metroplex, SS Leader, or Wave 2 Voyagers at Target. Never seen Wildrider in store ( I ended up ordering Amazon..) and Wave 2 Deluxes in general were at one store, one time.

Despite having no official Studio Series reveals for 2023 yet, I wonder if the first wave is already in U.S. ports. It wouldn’t surprise me seeing as Evolution has already arrived.

I think it's to give open window figures an extra layer of protection.

I preorder from Pulse but I used to be able to find it in the wild long before my order was ready.
Dann86
They did that on purpose so the stunticons have all the same packaging
