@Jtprime17 Do you know if Legacy wave 3 Deluxe has already hit US port?
jrod1019
Oh gotcha I forgot about this thought it was a manufacturer error or small mistake quantities like the rumored Blaster deco head where he was smiling. Never saw that one though.
Q Prime
This is what I’m referring to: Possible Transformers Legacy Breakdown Variant Discovered
jrod1019
Very true, but hopefully Hasbro restocks him not sure what the deco version might look like.
Lazerwave
@Jtprime17 Sorry to be a bother. I know you said Armada Megatron, 86 Snarl, Studio Series wave 2 Deluxe and Some Exclusives were at US port recently. Have you heard anything about Legacy wave 3 Deluxe being at US port?

I wish I did though, it would have made for a good punching bag for the Legacy Armada characters.

Yeah I completely forget. I was going to watch it again but I did re watch it 5-10 years ago and I can't remember exactly where I remember well into the series or not.

I’m glad I never had the Combiner Wars Megatron.

You could always wait and get him that seemingly upcoming toy deco version if you don't manage to come upon the original.
jrod1019
I do too but was working on a second one for my son and haven't had luck at Target or Hasbro out of stock.
TF Hot Rod
Cannot wait for Megatron, and the inevitable Galvatron repaint.

The Armada guys and the Nemesis look great! I can't believe how much I am actually liking the Armada updates. The originals never really did much for me following RID 2001, I thought they were a step backwards but these new updates make them pop! Love the colors or Armada too.

It's a cryin' shame Armada Megs has those hollow forearms. It's bad (but expected) on a Deluxe and terrible on a Voyager. On a Leader Class it's anathema.

Breakdown? Got him from Amazon in January. I've had Menasor completed almost half a year!
jrod1019
Dang Armada Prime looks like he could bear hug a ship down!
Like Armada Megatron's look too will pick him up when available.
Menasor just need to pick up his upgrade kit for perfect completion; side note anyone else having trouble getting Breakdown?
This is still one of my favorite Meg's once you add the upgrade kit.

That figure may not come for quite some time, the premium finish line appears to move very slowly which is not uncommon for some Japanese lines / releases etc
MintCondition
All that unpainted gray plastic on Prime is inexcusable. Might as well skip it and wait for the inevitable Premium Finish
