It might just be me, but I don't see them listed on their website yet 

 

I've heard a bit of talk over the past few weeks about it but they don't seem to have gotten the hype the Victory did. I'm excited to see if they made any new models

Exact same models as victory, almost exact same reel seat, different blank.

Did TW just add those? I checked a few minutes ago and I swear they were not there ?Thanks though!

I was just about to get the 7'1 MF Victory to pair with a vanford 3000 spinning for weightless plastics, then I saw this coming out so I really want to see the new legend bass. I can't find a weight on it anywhere, I know the Victory is 3.4 oz.

Can someone tell me what's different in the left handed model? I assume the reel seat must but molded to make it more comfortable? I fish left handed reels and have never had an issue with a rod not being comfortable because of it but now I'm curious.

Regarding the new Legend Tournament Bass -

 

I got a 7’3” Med XF spinning as a replacement for a warranty swap on my old 6’10” LTB.  
The new version is lighter but still too tip  heavy, although not at bad as the original.  Not too pleased with it, as the CS rep told me they redesigned the LTB specifically to be less tip heavy.  
 

I will keep it and put the chair cap with weight back on the new one to balance it out. However, had I known the new one would be tip heavy, I would have upgraded to a legend elite.

To add: I am using a 3000 series Stradic Ci4. 

 

Also, the handle is significantly improved. There is a lot more cork around the handle to have a comfortable grip.
