Transformers: Hunt for the Decepticons - Tracker Hound

What was that I was saying a few days ago about liking the Legends scale of figures? Yeah, it keeps going today with the new Legends Tracker Hound from the Hunt for the Decepticons line by Hasbro. This little figure does a great job of channeling the G1 inspiration from oh so many years ago, and does it in 1/3 of the size and complexity. While the Legends class started out as little more than glorified Happy Meal toys, I think you have to admit that they have improved in design and complexity over the several years since they were first added to the lines.

Also note the name prefix usage which is not 'Autobot' or 'Decepticon' - a practice we're seeing more and more. Sure, we've been told that it is often a copyright-necessity to have 'Rescue Ratchet' instead of just 'Ratchet', but coming soon is the return of the rubsign and the 'Reveal the Shield' line, which is hoping to infuse a modicum of mystery to the 'bots alignments, so gone are the easy clues in the names!
