I think quillfire is even better pulled off than thunderhoof. Those exposed quills made all the difference. Its really impressive how the animals can hide away their big animal features in vehicle mode. Be it Steeljaw's tail or Quillfire's quills.

Steeljaw's tail was very clever, and I do love the quills here. They are his defining feature, and they nailed it! very impressive. Now if only they'd do a warrior Clampdown and Underbite....

I would need a voyager underbite. And with Takara around, its not as much of a pipe dream as it could have been.

Very true, but at least I'd like a bigger one. all we have is the legends (which I have) and the one step, and they are woefully undersized. Heck, one step barely seems big for the legends class guys

Who would be the Decepticons in most need of an update? I'd go with:

• 3-Step Underbite
• Warrior Filch
• Warrior Clampdown
• Warrior Hammerstrike

Then some kind of Ped, Scowl, and Octopunch could make for some cool alt mode variety. Doubt we'll see a majority of those but man, there are so many cool Decepticons in this series to work with that any more are very welcome.

I would love a warrior Scowl. I love me some more dinobots. and Chop Shop!

It's hard to impress me with bike figures, but they did a great job. If I had any complaint, it would be about his weapon. It's not bad, but it's not good either. It serves it's purpose as a part of the bike mode, and I'm fine with that.

I love it, it has a natural design, so the butt can rest properly in his shoulder, and if you turn it so its facing with his fingers, he can hold it from the midpoint quite well

I would adore a Hammerstrike! He is my number 1. Filch less since we have yet to see her robot mode in action.

And I actually would really like a kickback, that design was very impressive.

And while an Underbite would be fun for a collection, I dont find his transformation and design all that interesting. Same with Scowl who's transformation is the same as any of the Prime Predacons.

but but but....Scowl's a badass!

It's a very clever figure and the bot mode is sleek, fun and just exudes bounty hunter.

william-james88 wrote:I would need a voyager underbite. And with Takara around, its not as much of a pipe dream as it could have been.

I have the little legion figure and I would love a voyager or larger figure for Underbite. I don't see how they could make the transformation much different though. And that might earn Hasbro a little more flak, but voyagers don't exist for this line in Hasbroland anyway.

At this point I will be getting all the warrior figures. I don't normally go for beastformers, but I really do like these beastbots that turn into vehicles. Like it's been pointed out its fun to find animal bits hidden behind panels.

Following yesterday's in hand reveal of Robots in Disguise Warrior Class Thunderhoof and Quillfire, we now have images of Warrior Class Blizzard Strike Autobot Drift to share. Say that three times fast!

When you get your tongue untied, whet your appetite on the pictures below. Not quite satisfied yet? While you're waiting for the full gallery, compare the new deco to the original RID Drift here.















What do you think of Drift's new cold weather paint job? Is this a worthy addition to your collection? Did you miss out on the first release and you'd like to experience this mold? Hit the jump and tell us in the discussion below.

Remember to keep your browsers pointed to Seibertron.com for the latest in Transformer news, the largest Transformers galleries found on the web and the liveliest Transformers discussion this side of a space bridge.

I'm sad to say but the 3 Step changer may be the best of the 3 - not only as they actually remoulded it but the deco is just damn nice. That superior deco on the Warrior Mould would have given Takara's Drift a run for it's money.

I wonder if you pull any of the Minicons to pieces and reverse them so that you have less of them sticking out when docked in the Deployer - or would it require a custom part ?

I think they look a bit big when plugged in and not so good with the bare grasping part showing.

Like the clear wheels, and the paint apps, the white/silver facial hair even fits the theme, definitely gonna get it

And do you finally se the clear plastic I was talking about?

That 3-step has the best paint work of the 3, but the blizzard deco does look awesome!
