Anyone else seen these? Have the producers just got the one mould?

That's actually one of the Classics recolors, if you can believe it. Online retailers have them in stock, but I haven't heard anything about them being in retail stores yet.

The other recolors work pretty well, but that one is poorly chosen, I think.

Ah. Whoops. Looks like a KO, anyway.

Yeah - it looks hideous!

They really should have released the red recolour as a Classics Hot Rod (fine, Rodimus).

Oh - and as a word of warning, I've had a very bad time with that eBay seller.

Aye. The red one's really nice. Paint aps on Bumblebee suck, compared to the red version of Hot Shot.

Nah, Clay that just has to be a KO - he's not as pretty as the original Classics. But... when has that ever stopped Hasbro?

See what you mean about Roddy, though, if he were recoloured red.

As of this moment in time, the seller has taken no bids.

Hasbro could really have been onto an even bigger winner with this mold, had they but realised...

Bumblebee though? Bumblebee? Not seeing it - and the scheme is an eyesore.

The Classics Legends are rather variable, thus far. But, hey, would be worth it just to get Leo Prime out of the line!

But, yeah - the line does leave a lot to be desired.

I dunno. Aside from Bumblebee, the rest of the legends figures aren't so bad in classics. I definitely need to snatch those up.
