Transformers Robots in Disguise One Step Ratchet Coming Soon

We need to get to the new warriors coming out. I want Ratchet and Bisk (and Windblade and Scorponok) lest we forget minicons and Crazybolt! Come on RiD! I'm ready!

Not until it was posted on here. I'm a huge fan of Ratchet, but I think I will wait for the warrior.

I am too.

Now that RID15 is on Netflix I've finally gotten around to watching more than the first 3 episodes and wow I like it. Went to the store the other day for the first time since seeing the show and spotted a Quillfire, my first time seeing him. I chose not to pick him up because of money concerns but he looks good and I want to get all the Warrior Decepticons and most of the Autobots from this show. I'll opt for TAV Voyager Grimlock, Leader Prime, Jazz, TAV Strongarm since her deco is better there.

'course with Titans Return starting soon this may hurt my wallet.

I'd honestly opt for all the TAV Autobots, except Legion Fixit, which is technically more inaccurate over there. I digress. Bumblebee and Sideswipe might have minor touch-ups, but those make a huge difference. The wheels, especially, but other details like Sideswipe's waist & grill and Bumblebee's brake-lights & door stripes make them each more complete. Sure, it might blow a gaping hole in your wallet....

....

Anyways, this is my Adventure collection for example, sans TAV Jazz, who I haven't updated the group shot with yet. And again, there's Hasbro's Fixit:

Eh, the wallet will get over it. Besides, there is a nice gap between titans return starting and right now. I'm not sure how or when you buy compared to things coming out, but the titans aren't even shipping the initial preorders for a few more weeks, meaning they won't be available en masse or hitting store shelves frequently until probably August, so you have some space.

And I recommend TAV 29 Supreme Bumblebee. Nice paint, excellent detail, and he has a show accurate weapon. Plus, ya know, he's powered up. I have him and I love him.

I wish he was part of the HLJ sale.

I like the scale these guys have with oneanother:

I wish Springload had taller legs. Then he would scale nicely in robot mode too

Springload does not take advice from the unworthies!

Laptop was finally repaired so I popped into Asda.

Rebellion against the Authority!

But I am intending to go to Walmart tonight, so maybe I'll find some minis. Maybe

Fellow Seibertronians, thanks to fellow board member Kurona, we now know that wave 3 of the Robots in Disguise Mini-Consline has shown up at retail in the UK. Seen below are Blizzard Strike Slipstream, and Back, and they were purchased at an Asda. While Slipstream retains the same accessories as his original release, his wavemates - Swelter, Hammer, and Back - do not include the necessary armor pieces to form the additional lion figure. So, check out the image below, let us know what you think of them, and prepare to hunt some Minicons!

America, I hope you are looking at our news

I must admit I didn't actually buy them, just took a picture in-store - that's why they're lying on top of a ton of minion plushies (euch). Not the sort of thing I wanna buy is all.

But they are there, and that is what counts

Erm, these have been available since before botcon.

Tweeted you a pic of these earlier in the week too:-

Yep, we actually posted news and a review about them about 2 months ago: http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/ ... iew/35173/

It's the individual packs that are remaining difficult to find

Cool not sure anyone has reported this yet, but the Japanese Mincons with the pegs come with a little extra plug which attaches them to the sprue. This is the same size/shape as the connector on the back of the Minicons and it can be used to connect the plugs on to the standard connectors on Prime Deployer/Delux toys.









Hopefully people wont have thrown them out.

You just saved mine from the trash but I don't see how the connector would connect to a proper Mini-Con port on toys from past lines. The rectangle sized hold wouldn't accommodate the traditional ports, or any 5mm peg for that matter.

These were in asda when I got my legends Shockwave almost a month ago,I didn't realise it was newsworthy

Yep, the minicons in particular have had scarce sightings. If you find something though and you don't think we newsed it or anything, feel free to drop it in a thread or reports news up there in the top right corner! If we have it, we just have more proof; if we don't, everyone else now knows about it!

Sure,will do. If I had known these were rare I would have shared.

Just in case there's any left, it was asda Park royal and they had the whole wave

Well we did let people know we were looking for them when word first got out they were at Asda. It just took a while for someone to send a picture. But we did let people know, we knew they were out since at least early june and I personally asked for a picture to be sent: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=101922&p=1795527&hilit=asda#p1795527

Got Ratbat and Sandsting today. Ratbat is awesomely hilarious- I really dig his colours, and he just looks so cute standing on his wings. A shame he can't do a convincing flight pose though. Sandsting is so neon it hurts, rocking Evangelion Unit 01 colours except somehow far more painful to look at. He's definitely the runt of the two, with a slightly blobby scorpion mode and rather unimpressive torpedo mode, but I still love him.

The armoured forms are awful though.

Thanks to Wilton Wong on Facebook, we have our first in-hand images of the upcoming Robots In Disguise Warrior Scorponok figure! Scorponok is a brand new mold based on the Season 2 baddie who showed that he was the muscle and he could be in charge. Scorponok features a transformation different from pretty much every other Scorponok ever, and while housing a slight backpack with his scorpion tail and no real hands, he does appear to be a solid figure and he even includes the ability to place his beast mode head over his regular robot head. Check out the images mirrored below and let us know what you think in the comments section, and as always stay tuned to Seibertron.com for all your latest Transformers News and Galleries!

He looks so weird, but in a good way. I am really liking him and I cannot wait for him and Windblade to join my shelf

I foresee many customs/digibashes for this guy.

He's a sweet looking figure. So far he appears to be another strong release for the RiD cons. The only bad RiD con so far is Steeljaw.

Scorponok looks cool as shit, I want that figure!

carytheone wrote:Scorponok looks cool as SHIZZLESNIT, I want that figure!

Did you notice how good some of his paint apps are? He looks cool figure wise, paint wise, and transformation wise. I'm excited too!

D-Maximus_Primal wrote:...he even includes the ability to place his beast mode head over his regular robot head.

Mutant mask? Scorponok looks okay so far. I don't want to be the bad grape in the vine, but I can't make any final judgments before I see Takara's Scorponok.

Yeah I noticed that paint as well. He looks great. Very original for a scorpion transformer. What I find very interesting is how his bucaneer like sabr becomes his stinger.

He really is a unique bugger and I love it. The skinny legs look a bit weird to me, but overall he is a darn good looking guy

Scorponok looks awesome, can't wait to get him, wonder why we haven't seen any pics of him with his boxing gloves on...

I can't get over those chicken legs!

Yeah, it takes a certain type to be able to easily get past them; they are fairly extreme in his case though

Yeah, they are very extreme. Its because for this toy, it seems the designers wanted to give something very new with having the limbs not be anything repeated from the alt mode (which is very hard to do with beasts), so he ends up having a lot of kibble in the back and on his shoulders with small arms and legs that can tuck away easily in alt mode. It was a bold decision and I give it merrit but I do admit that it would have probably been better to integrate some more alt mode into the limbs. I will still get this guy though, I am a sucker for original designs.

But if someone wants an awesome transforming Scorpion bot, Beast Wars Scorponoc offers an excellent and very modern transformation.

I love the design, loved the extreme's they went to in rotf and beast machines, so this is great - though, I would like to know just what his arms are supposed to be, tentacles? And to be fair, he can wear his claws as boxing gloves, so that's partial integration
