I would hope human beings of all things would be aware that time is limited and not have to be constantly told that it is.

Time is a flat circle.

And now the Warriors are $25. I'll wait for them to show up locally.

It says in stock on may 22.

Pardon me while I heave a loud 'm'eh'.

Haven't had any enthusiasm for the RiD line. The show has none of the heart or novelty that TFA had, and thus the figures don't either.

lol at amazons price gouge.

waiting till hts has it

*sigh* That Jazz figure looks like crap, but being the Jazz collector that I am, I feel obligated to get it.

Whoa. They jacked the price up that quickly?

Shame, I was considering getting them from Amazon 'till I saw the new price. That's okay. I finally found Drift at Walmart and he should amuse me for a couple weeks.

Seriously, Drift kicks ass

JazZeke wrote:*sigh* That Jazz figure looks like crap, but being the Jazz collector that I am, I feel obligated to get it.

I thought Jazz was a little underwhelming at first as well, but then we got in-hand images. It seems that, like Drift, he's a lot better looking in person, and now I can't wait to get him.

JazZeke wrote:*sigh* That Jazz figure looks like crap, but being the Jazz collector that I am, I feel obligated to get it.

Hold off until the Takara release. Maybe like Bumblebee, the deco will be significantly improved.

I know I will wait... Unless I see him live in store during a sale, like Drift.

Takara figures are out of my price range, and anyway, my issues with the figure are with the mold just as much as the paint job. It doesn't look worth spending the extra money on it even if I did buy Takara.

You American? Because Even with shipping, Takara figures are not that expensive anymore compared to today's TF prices. Especially when you pre-order them at the right places like Amiami.

Well, best thing to do is to wait for a video review.

I know this is a "products" thread, but I just had to post this cause its sweeeeet....

It IS sweet!

Youtuber Chuck (or chuckdawg1999 to us Seibertronians) has posted a new review tonight of Transformers Robots in Disguise Warrior Class Jazz! He comes in Wave 3 alongside Sideswipe and online retailers have them slated for release this month, so hopefully they will be popping up on stores shelves soon. Keep scrolling to watch Chucks review, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com for all your Transformers News!

While we've seen in-hand images of the Transformers: Robots in Disguise Super Bumblebee from Hong Kong, our first US sighting comes from a Toys'R'Us store in Baton Rouge, LA (and via fellow Seibertronian carytheone)!

Check out the photo proof for the giant three-step toy below, priced at around $50, and make sure to flag it up in our Sightings section and forums to help out other collectors if you come across one yourself!

That face has dull surprise written all over it.

Pat Lee is the KING of dull surprise:

MrBlack wrote:That face has dull surprise written all over it.

He's got that meh face. The face is surprisingly detailed. I didn't really give him a good look until I saw the picture posted here. I activated the noise button pulling him out of the box and it caught me off guard.

Look at his tiny little hand holes. Is he supposed to hold deluxe scaled weapons?

The big Rescue Bots Optimus Prime has 5mm pegs in his hands as well.

Yeah, the 5mm compatibility help enhance play value by allowing this or any 5mm compatible figure to hold just about any Transformers weapon accessory in this day and age.

Ah, kinda like leader class Megatron

YouTube Reviewer, MitchSantona, has this up already. Bumblebee is a typical young-dude leader, with catchphrases, car-revving noises, & a short rock-TF-theme, light-up eyes/forehead crest, & only shoulder rotation for articulation. He's a huge, cheaply-made, unnecessarily expensive, hollow, mess, that some people will just love.

I myself would never buy this, especially at full price, but as someone who bought super-sized Playskool Rescue Heroes Epic Optimus Prime (at clearance for $9.00, to display my Bot-Shots,G1 Robot Heroes, & Kre-Ons) I can't totally hate this. But sheesh, for it to not even have Legends-level articulation for $50?

That bee will blow the minds of young kids everywhere!
...
It will be a bloodbath.

You may be right. I watched Mitch's review and was impressed with the amount of paint apps. Super Bee is not my thing, but the size strangely draws me to it.

Like maybe make an ottoman from him or something.



This could be the new 1 step lifestyle transformers line. For the transformer loving college student in your life!

MrBlack wrote:The big Rescue Bots Optimus Prime has 5mm pegs in his hands as well.

To be fair he has them on the back of his hands as well which he can use to hold guns in a less silly fashion. I like to use Combiner Wars Prime's guns with him.

I wonder how many figures you could stuff inside of his vehicle mode.

Lol, I'd buy! and I'm the right age group too!

Holy crap! You're right! Maybe he is a troop carrier. Other than Metroplex, how often do we get those?

I think this Bumblebee is meant to fit in with oversized figures made in different lines/companies. They should still give Bee some decent shoulders and elbows at least

Courtesy of Seibertronian chuckdawg1999 we have another video review for the latest Transformers: Robots in Disguise Warrior class wave: Sideswipe, the teenage swordsbot! Check out the video embedded below for the wavemate of Jazz, and find out your fellow collector's thoughts on the toy - does it pass the bar?

Well, Hasbro can't win them all. Sideswipe has a great looking car mode, two tone paint and all, unfortunately that's where the compliments end. While the transformation is interesting, a flaw in the design prevents the torso from coming together properly and staying together, making posing the upper half of the figure impossible. Perhaps the inevitable repaint will somehow magically stay together, but I'm not holding out hope.

That's a real shame about Sideswipe, I was really jazzed for this wave. I still feel that Sideswipe looks good in alt mode. It really is a very cool looking car with some neat vent like detailing on the rear. To me the whole line looks good in alt mode. Maybe I can pick him up on sale?

Yeah I do not like the arms or upper area around the head.

I also found the legs a pain in the butt to transform and figure out.

I'm willing to bet he doesn't have him transformed right, considering Hasbro's instructions for the warriors suck. I'll bet there is more to those panels that fold into his back.

EagleBot13 wrote:I'm willing to bet he doesn't have him transformed right, considering Hasbro's instructions for the warriors suck. I'll bet there is more to those panels that fold into his back.

I really wish it was the case. The problem with Sideswipe is that the plastic use for his shoulders are very soft so when you attach it to the chest...it will pop off as soon as you touch it. If you have RID Drift, imagine the plastic use for Drift sword but softer and that how some of the plastic feels on Sideswipe. Also, in alt mode, his chest piece drags on the ground so u can't even roll him either smh. He jus feels like a toy I got from the dollar store. Highly disappointed with him.

I was thinking about that so I made sure to go over the figure carefully. Things do peg together but they don't hold. Also those panels next to the head have to be there, rotating them down really pushes the arms out, and up locks the shoulders.

I wonder if nail polish would help this issue at all.

Nail polish, floor polish, prayer, sanding, blood sacrifices those can all work, but in the year 2015 I don't feel you should have to "fix" a new toy.

way to to go hasbro! with quality like that they should be worth the price of legends class!

While I fully agree, the idea of fixing toys is more of a recent one sadly. I never had to fix any of my toys when I was younger.

You're absolutely 100% correct. If I had a toy and it broke 9 time out of 10 it was because I was stupid. Depending on the damage most vintage Transformers can be fixed if you know what you're doing. I'm not sure if I can say that about figures released more recently.

I am verry disappointed in Warrior Sideswipe I was looking forward to him but after seeing 3 reviews he is a bit of a let down. What do you guys think

Yes, you read that headline right, RID Warrior (Deluxe) Class Jazz and Sideswipe were found at retail!

I found him yesterday, and I agree with the general sentiment. Car mode is REALLY nice (and the pale kanji makes it look like the car is intentionally bi-coloured rather than paint and plastic being off from one another) but his robot mode doesn't want to quite hold together. It's not as bad as say, Blitzwing; you can move his arms around a bit without his upper body coming apart, but if you try to get any dynamic poses you will be pegging him back together. It just seems as if the designer underestimated how deep the connector pegs would need to be due to the soft oily plastic used.

In short he's a quite reasonable figure to get at retail value, especially if you're trying to get all onscreen characters but don't go mad hunting him down.

Sideswipe can work with a little effort.

First, make sure the chest plate is securely fastened against his sternum.
Second, gently slide the shoulders into place and make sure the tiny pegs are actually sitting in the tiny holes. (This is the hardest part.)
Finally, push the hood piece up against the fenders/collar and it'll force the shoulders to lock in and he becomes poseable.

If you bump the hood loose, however, the whole thing comes apart. (Terrible design.) It also gives him tremendous backpack.
