As simple as the Legacy figure is, I don't feel like I'm going to break him and he looks good and once I add some touch up work I think I can bring him to where I wanted him.As the name of the thread outright spells out, this thread serves to document any and all batch numbers of the now-releasing Legacy Motormaster, primarily to keep an eye on what batches have "pre-yellowed" out of the box.įor context: Legacy Motormaster has started to hit Australian retail and some people have reported that he's starting to discolor right of the box, specifically on the trailer that forms the majority of the Menasor frame. It was probably just my copy for some issues but I just really soured on that release. It was a good figure and parts count alone was great, but I'm not as big a fan of the IDW look of that era, also the figure was fiddly and unstable and the articulation was wonky to me and thanks to the head flip mine developed a crack in his hood right down the middle. I'll be breaking out my airbrush soon enough to adjust some things myself but in general, I like this more than the T30 figure.

I also wish his windows were tinted black and his fists were red, but I can live with it. They really needed to paint his entire thigh sections silver and his rear side windows needed to be painted in. It meant I could play with my toy as a transformer OR as a toy from City Connection, lol.Īdmittedly the paint it lacking. Slightly bigger and more heavily armed and he turned into a car from one of my favorite video games ever, City Connection. It helps that as a kid I always wondered which Autobot car I'd want as a friend and while I loved Bumblebee…mainly because I love VW Beetles, I always dug Skids more. Honestly, aside from paint and tossing out that energon accessory I really dig this little guy.

Finally found a Legacy Skids and you know, I like it! It has some design issues of course but the panel on the back of the head doesn't bother me and I added some wheel fillers to the front wheel and customized them to have rivet head so they look more like the back wheels.
