I'm very interested in the new weapon type Mini-Cons.
Especially this one (also shown above):
http://www.transformers-universe.com/include.php?path=content/ToyDB_Info.php&Toy_ID=6287&Sprache=0
On this site he's listed as Bludgeon but I saw that Bludgeon actually is packed in that new Battle Pack with Optimus Prime and that one is also black but just a normal Cyclone, not a weapon type.

Lancelon is an awesome name. As well as the always perfect LORD DOOMITRON!!! A bot whose name demands caps lock usage.

Is it sad that I just watched the reviews of the decepticon hunter packs and I kinda want the Optimus and (when he comes out) Grimlock? Not to mention Crazybolt cause he is just crazy and It clicks with me?

The ones that come with the energon armor and the minicons.

and that deployer Crazybolt

Yeah, Optimus looks really cool in his Energon armor. And I hope that the deployer gimmick works on Crazybolt better than on Overload.

I hate to be one that makes assumptions; how about "generally nice guy and new acquaintance"?

Just in case anyone missed it in my other review, and by the numbers it looks like they have; in the shoulder of Optimus Prime from the Minicon Battle pack there's a slot, this allows the ax to be stored in vehicle mode. Very close to the Warrior Class version.
I just picked up BP OP this weekend (about to drop some pics in my neck of the woods) and I noticed that as well. As a bonus the axe can also store in "super axe" mode. And if you're feeling real froggy, you can shove the axe in his backpack.

The super Ax mode is very flimsy on mine so I never tried storing it like that. I see Hyperchange Blizzard Drift, but I never saw a normal version of Drift as a Hyperchange figure. Did I miss something?

I wonder what size some of those RID toys might be - they look fairly basic so I'm strugling to think what size class they would fit in some case they could be either Minicons or Legions for example.

If you're talking about the battle packs that come with a minicon, then cyberverse size. OP scales great with the legion autobots.

You should give some of the other sizes a chance. For example...

That OP is really cool, I'd recommend him. I'm excited for the BP Grimmy as well Crazybolt.

The round minicons are quickly becoming my favs.

Haven't seen any of the new stuff 'round here. But they lack too much articulation for me to buy them right now - with my financial situation as it stands. I got my 'cute' unarticulated figures back with the mini-cons in Armada, but I'm looking into Dragonus :-?

Fair enough. Dragonus is one of the better ones. Which is kinda funny, because it was one of the ones I held off on the longest. The single packs are easy pickups for lil fun bots. I'm holding off for sales for the other deployers I don't have (will probably make an exception for Crazybolt).

Anyone wanna play top 5 RID mini-cons?

5. Airazor - wicked evil looking little guy
4. Ratbat - looks like a twisted mutant robot vampire bat
3. Beastbox - I just like the menacing design
2. Dragonus - he has a tail and can perch
1. Backtrack - the new guy, not bad articulation and makes a fun rolly ball

I could honestly find something good to say about each one. I accept them for what they are. They have spread out beyond my RID shelf and are hanging with other bots from other lines or like Dragonus; perched high, watching, planing, waiting for the time to strike.

Hold onto the thought, and get back to me when RID is over and Seibertron has all the galleries. Then if you are cool with it, I would love to have you write out that top 5 list.

sorry, i don't have a catalogue with me, & it doesn't appear on the Argos website! maybe someone else can accommodate

The next time you see the catalogue, take a pic with your phone. We could then news it and give you credit. What you found could have been pretty cool but we would need a pic to news it.

They are. And, personally, I think I'd be more excited to collect these Mini-cons (and the Deployers) if they did the auto-transform thing. It would make the deploying part more fun.

And what's the deal with all the blue repaints? The show's not set in the South Pole; why does everyone need a "Blizzard Strike" version?

Welcome! There is a difference though, arent Bakugan springloaded transformations?

They are. And, personally, I think I'd be more excited to collect these Mini-cons (and the Deployers) if they did the auto-transform thing. It would make the deploying part more fun.

And what's the deal with all the blue repaints? The show's not set in the South Pole; why does everyone need a "Blizzard Strike" version?

2 things

1. While they arent spring loaded, they are one step and unfold quite nicely.

2. Guess you didnt watch the recent trailer for season 2:

Ultra Markus, to answer your question they were intricately spring activated by a magnet that was pulled down when it rolled over a metal card or object (or was suppose too)

A PDF checklist for RObots in Disguise toys can be found on Hasbro.com. This checklist is reminescent of what has been included with other toys from other companies in the past, showing you what there is to collect and for kids to keep track of what they have (like with Mighty Beanz). This list shows various new and upcoming products. A few of these are actually products we have yet to actually see revealed outside the app such as:

One-Step Changers/Advanced Optimus Prime
One-Step Changers/Advanced Strongarm
Three-Step Changer Grimlock redeco (listed in the RID mobile game as "Stealthasaurus Grimlock")

Click on the following images of these three new toys to find the entire checklist.

Update: The checklist also gives us another look at new minicon redecos we last saw in a promotional image.

Stealthasaurus... While I give them props on the name, said stealthasaurus is gold black and bright green... pretty sure he won't find himself being stealthy anywhere, would've been hilarious if it had attachable parts to give him his 'vehicle' disguise from the show :lol:

Those three Mini-Cons on the far right of the first page are new too. Or rather, their decos are new.

They may be a stupid Question - but what is that new Grimlock in the Argos Catalogue ?
it looks a lot like the One step changer but it also seems to be bigger and a slightly different mould - is it one of these new larger One steps or is it a new mould 3 step changer ? Or is it just a regular one step that looks larger because of the photo ?

Can you post a pic? Or are you referring to the 'easy bake grimlock' pictured above?

Stealtsaurus is an awesome name, no way around it
