Yera worked best as a supporting character. Hopefully she will get back into the theater when she returns to the 31st century, making an occasional appearance a la Dev-Em.
Gates's powers need to be dialed back to their original levels. Otherwise he is just too powerful and the writers will have to constantly be contriving ways to keep him from serving as a deux-ex-machina. That would be a shame, as he has a fun personality (as long as it's not overdone).
Tellus was always a bit redundant in the powers department, although his unique background as a methane breather from a liquid world had story potential. The scenes on his homeworld around the time of the Universo Project were memorable, at least. He might actually be better off in the 21st century, maybe allied with Stormwatch?
Wildfire is former leader of the team and was always among the most popular legionnaires. He needs to get back to the future ASAP. The same applies to (former deputy leader) Timber Wolf.
I don't even recognize Dawnstar anymore (from a personality perspective). Keeping her in the past may be doing everyone a favor at this point.

I'm fine with all the characters though would be happier without the physical changes. Personalities seem consistent enough to me.
I'm just not sure I can stomach anymore of that hoorah metamarine dialogue, or the metamarines in general. I liked the original writer better but don't see that there's anywhere for this storyline to go. Might as well send them home, no 1000 year sleeps please, which is what I think they're setting Wildfire up for. Please, no.
