Transformers Robots in Disguise Hyperchange Sideswipe Possibly Revealed

Since the pic says "Warriors", I'm thinking that might be a glimpse at a Warrior class Sideswipe figure.

I find the tagline of 12 new characters to be very encouraging

The illustration depicts three steps, though, and lines up very closely with what we've seen from the Hyperchange Heroes' packaging so far.

Also, and this is not concrete evidence by any means, look at the kid's hands in that illustration. Assuming it's supposed to represent an average 6-9 year old, that Sideswipe is way too huge to be a Deluxe figure.

Wow. That is a quick change. And a decent looking robot mode. I'm sure it has terrible articulation but that transformation sure is cool. I may pick one of these up for the novelty of it.

If HasTak only plans to do brick formers with Three step Transformers for the bigger Rid toys. Then I'm hoping there is no Ultra or Leader class toys for this toy line. Rather see the 2015 CW and Generations get the bigger Ultra, Leader and Supreme toys instead.

If that's the Hyperchange, I could really care less.

If that's the Warrior class...at least there's one toy in this line that isn't looking dull. Still holding my tongue for the under-detailed inaccurate final product, though.

Thanks to an anonymous source, we have in-package images of Robots in Disguise (2015) Warrior Class Optimus Prime and Drift! Though the images are small due to being overtaken by images of the figures themselves, we get a decent look at the package art for the pair. Check out the images below!

Not when the actual TFA season 4 Prime would have been so much cooler:



The Warrior figure pales in comparison.

Eh, close enough!



Look like I was right to call him "Grown up TFA OP."

Not for me.

oh man. so cool. Yeah nothing now does that justice. I think Takara's Hunter Prime looks like it was inspired by that but...man. this toy would have been awesome.

this would be a awesome figure for the 2015 generations line

Animated PowerMaster Optimus Prime with Micron (insert Armada Micron name here ) comes with 4 Missiles, Matrix Of Leadership, Magnus Hammer and a exchangeable Generation one Optimus Prime Head for that extra bit of G1 Powermaster Prime Nostalgia

Why is it that, all of a sudden, I actually want these figures (specifically the 'bots) even though they're out of scale, under detailed, and/or terribly sculpted?

I'm having an identity crisis.

It's ok to have fun with toys

This line makes me sad.

That Warrior Class Optimus look just amazing! One thing I'm looking forward to is how much it will scale with Cyberverse figures, based on the vehicle mode. It is a truck & trailer combo after all.

No matter what, it will be one more Optimus deluxe to add to my collection. Now, if only my local stores would bother to be up to date...

The second piece of news from site owner Seibertron concerns the upcoming Transformers: Robots in Disguise animated series, with the second wave of Titan Hero non-transforming figures, featuring characters from the main cast. Check out more info and an image below!

Transformers Robots in Disguise Titan Hero Figures Wave 2

February 2015

From the TV show! Beast-based Decepticons and heroic Autobots are back in Transformers Robots in Disguise Titan Hero Figures Wave 2. Each 12-inch figure has moving limbs and is ready for big action.

Case includes 8 individually packaged action figures:
2x TRA TITAN HERO OPTIMUS PRIME
2x TRA TITAN HERO BUMBLEBEE
2x TRA TITAN HERO STEELJAW
2x TRA TITAN HERO SIDESWIPE

Eeeech.... they're still doing those shampoo bottle figures? The same kind that, from other lines, I see warming shelves every day? I guess SOMEONE must be buying them or they wouldn't keep making them...

Gotta have something to fill the shelves when they don't get enough real figures thanks to bad distribution.

...What was Wave 1 supposed to be?

Um, quick question, I got a 3-step Bumblebee for my birthday (It was what I didn't have, and I'm not ready to go into Combiner Wars yet.) I think it might be broken, though, the head doesn't come up all the way and he looks like he's staring at his chest (or hanging his head in shame). Is this a common problem, or should I exchange mine?

They would make good bowling pins...

A big, non-transforming, simplistic, shoulder-articulated Bumblebee? Yes, please!

Metro Prime wrote:...What was Wave 1 supposed to be?

That is Wave 1. I think they got confused with the larger Titan Guardians, which has Steeljaw, Optimus Prime and Bumblebee. Either that, or they consider the AoE ones Wave 1 (which still had 2 Waves).

Here is the big reveal of the 2015 UK Toy Fair that took place:

One Step Optimus

This isn’t just a one-step changer, it’s a huge one-step changer. Standing at over 11 inches tall, this Optimus Prime figure converts from robot to truck mode and back again, in one motion. The transformation is simple; just pull the trailer apart to go from vehicle to robot, then push the chest and swing the cab down to convert back.

As Sabrblade pointed out, this seems to be the figure from this listing:

TRANSFORMERS RID NERF MEGA 1-STEP OPTIMUS PRIME

But my big question is, is this just a biger version of the Hyperchange version? Because the mold looks the same, especially the truck mode.

Nope. If you at them side by side, you'll notice that the shoulders and wheels are different, the cab is more streamlines and the back of the trailer is different.

Ok, looking at them side by side, and while the cab is different, the back is the very same. It looks like the same mold but retooled and redeco'd.

Nah, I'd say it's an all-new toy, but taking design cues from the Three-Step.

Has anyone else realized that the new Decepticon Thunderhoof is named after Chief Thunderhooves from MLP?

Based on a real name? Easy pun? Corpyright shortcut?
Anyway, why not? Dare I say, why not.

I'm going for easy pun, since Thunderhoof is a deer, not a pony.

Actually, Chief Thunderhooves is a buffalo, setting the two even further out of sync.

You should. Awesome show is awesome. (The 2010 reboot, obviously.)

Now, let's get back to topic before someone get Burn'd.

From a TFW2005 user who was at the Nuremburg Toy Fair:

Also, for the RID show, the Minicons will get a comeback. There was a version of Drift on show, which futures a shooting mechanism for the Minicons. Looks a lot like the Warrior class but is called deployers.

I am so excited about this!

The RID game has confirmed some upcoming figures:

Legion Fixit
Legion Underbite
One-Step Changer Optimus Prime
One-Step Changer Drift
One-Step Changer Fracture
Warrior Sideswipe
Warrior Jazz
Three-Step Changer Steeljaw

Sounds pretty good.

BTW, when is the Optimus Prime wave going to be released?

Not necessarily.

RID15 Warrior Optimus Prime Video Review

Fellow Seibertron.com user Madeus Prime has notified us of a new video review for the Transformers: Robots in Disguise line, featuring the Warrior class Optimus Prime - adding to the diatribe over whether the big bot is dead or alive in the new show. But in the meantime, check out what Shartimus Prime has to say about the toy below!

In other Transformers: Robots in Disguise toy news, a strange listing on the French Hasbro site, under Littlest Pet Shop, has given detail on three upcoming One-Step figures of characters from the show.

Legion Windblade!!!

I just want a Warrior release for Thunderhoof, please make that happen hasbro!

"Megatronus," huh? Looks like someone's gone back to his old name...

thanks for share most videos i see i fast forward through articulation parts

The only thing I could think of as I was translating the French bios was this:

And nobody mentioned it, but HOLY MOLLY, they will actually give us a Clampdown toy!

Watch him turn out to be a Decepticon crab

But dont we already know that's what he is?

I got suuuuper excited about the headline, and then I saw that the Thunderhoof was a one-step, and then I stopped caring. :/

I feel we all think the same way.

These shows are made to sell toys and I will glady obey, I am sold on this guy, so make the damn toy!

But hey, we are getting two more warrior decepticons, which is a good sign.
