Takara-Tomy have
updated their website
with the announcement of a new line of Transformers toys. The line is named "Transformers Legends" but should not be confused with the Legends size class or the mobile game from Mobage. This line, Transformers Legends, is billed as "various characters who have appeared in the 30 year history of the Transformers, getting new releases with a modern interpretation and modern technology" (our paraphrasing of online translations)
The first two releases in the line have been revealed as
Rattrap
and
Optimus Primal
, from Beast Wars - and you might notice that for this line Takara-Tomy has reverted to the original Japanese names, so these two are being called Rattle and Convoy, respectively. Rattrap / Rattle is the new Generations Deluxe class toy, while Convoy is the original Beast Wars Ultra class toy, using the remolding from the 10th anniversary Golden Disk reissue set.
Given the billing of the series - that it is a celebration of characters from throughout the 30 years of Transformers - it seems likely that this line will also see some characters from other lines as well. We'd guess that the likes of the Generations Leader Jetfire and Deluxe Tankor will ultimately find a home in this line too. As always, watch this space for more news.
Rattle and Convoy, the first releases in the line, are due to arrive in October 2014.
