I dont know. None of my local stores have even gotten that third wave of minicons yet, the one that comes before the weapons.

I think we will get the individually packed weapon minicons in the summer at the earliest

I'm still trying to find out if the RID Legion Class is officially dead now ?

They have in the past removed it only to reintroduce it as part of a Movie line - so if they are doing that I'd understand.

But there still is lots of Decepticons (in particular) I'd have liked to see in that scale.

RAR: there ares till some legion class coming out. Bisk and Groundpounder are supposed to be getting legion toys here soon.

And I agree about the minicons. I have only seen wave 1 and 2 and that first 4-pack. I really want to see wave 4 so I can get the individual Jetstorm and Ransack so (except for Airazor) I have the main 3 minicon teams (and I use Overloads team very loosely as main)

I dont know why you are still wondering that since Hasbro has shown them at events with all the other classes.

Two European websites are giving us some new photos of upcoming Robots in Disguise toys. Unlike the recent trend of Hasbro official images being 3-d renders, these are images of the actual toys. Czech site Pompo.cz, shows us the Alpine Deco Sideswipe with Windstrike Mini-Con Weaponizer Battle Pack. Sideswipe has clear snap-on armor which can be attached to Windstrike, turning it into a big sword. A picture of Battlepack Strongarm was also found on that site. There are also new images of the weapon minicons Lord Doomitron and Slipstream from UK distributor Wind Designs.

Enjoy!

Man, I really wish that Sideswipe had more color to him

I dunno if it's cos maybe I been staring at the upcoming Titans/Legends stuff too much but man these look extra cheap and nasty...

R-Red Alert? Is that you?

Wow, that sideswipe looks horrid; like the armor integration with the mini-cons though

well, I worked it out tonight. I am going to go on a minicon binge when the new ones start coming out. I decided that I am going to get pairs. i already have Slipstream. Divebomb, Backtrack and Back, so I am going to get Jetstorm, Airazor, Ransack and Forth to go with them to complete the pairs. I will also get the Swelter/Glacius pair and the Hammer/Anvil pair. I will get Hammer with Crazybolt, so I will need to find Anvil somehow hopefully separate from Sideswipe, and for the life of me I cannot find Airazor separate from Fracture. I don't want those larger figures, just the minicons. BAH!!

I'm liking the new weapon alt mode minicons; wish they'd had that functionality from jump street. Ratchet looks really nice in person and his guns are pretty awesome.

Ratchet: dual Autobot generic pistols!

Beats the stubby floppy daggers his PRID self came with.

I wonder where they will store the pistols in alt mode?

Or if you're feeling a little less importy and wanna pay a bit more for the convenience of adding him to an existing PoL.

But honestly, you can probably just wait for a discount on the deployers and save the hassle, but Taks do look nicer (especially Jetstorm).

The funny thing is, I'm contemplating getting 2 of him: 1 for the Prime/RiD shelf, and another for the Lost Light, as he can make a passable MTMTE Ratchet

I've seen those, but I in no way want to spend $10-20 for a minicon. I'm kinda surprised no one on ebay is selling the minicon and deployer separate

I "fixed" it for you

I'll sell you my deployer Fracture (less Airazor) for the cost of shipping

I have the Tak Jetstorm on preorder from BBTS. I figured I'd be lucky to find the Drift deployer on discount for under $10 and the "deco" on that Jetstorm leaves a little to be desired. Toss him on my PoL and I won't get charged any extra for shipping.

What did I have it as before?

Also, Nice image.

Also also: Boo! you would sell me the deployer only!! I just want the dang $5 minicon!!!

No quotes, as a MTMTE fan, I thought that was a given.

But I want the minicon and is the only reason I picked him up. Glad I only pad a little over $6 for him.

So does everyone else, it wont happen. People have bought the deployer set just for the minicon so selling it solo on e-bay would be practically the same price as the whole thing, or at least over 10$.

Well, true that.

And I may have to buy the deployer. too bad I can't find him for cheap. On another note, considering I have the clash warrior Sideswipe, I can pass buying the con hunter Swipe pack for a better mold and actual show coloring and get the minicon too. I need anvil to go with Hammer (who will come with Crazybolt). I need the pairings of minicons. They are too funny

Fellow Seibertronians, we bring you an update to the Hasbro floor display of Robots in Disguise from Botcon. The gallery can be found here, and contains photos of the new Warrior Class Ratchet, Bisk and Windblade, among others, as well as various new Weaponizer Mini-cons. So check out the gallery and let us know what you think of these new figures in the comments below.

That version of Optimus still looks like Tarn to me!

Also, I can't wait for that Bisk toy! I'm also probably going to grab that Ratchet and Strongarm. As for that Windblade, I think it's growing on me.

Im liking these nice simple pistol designs here.

I cannot wait to get these warriors. Plus that big Optimus
