In-Hand Photos of Transformers Robots in Disguise (2015) Wave 2 Mini-Cons and Shark

I understand that these are more or less stylistically updated TFC cassette bots, but I feel like these have way more personality and hide their limitations better in their aesthetic choices. Plus I need me an energon shark!

Those mini-cons are a lot more appealing now that we can see them properly transformed and posed. Still not interested in the Deployers, though.

I also love things that come on sprues and can be assembled. I used to love those snap-together model kits when I was a kid.

I don't really follow RID but this little guy is cute and reminds me of Rung from IDW for some reason..

Fixit is awesome. He has great posability for his size, hell, he just has great posability.

I get a Rung vibe from his face too. But more than that, he is like a robot ET on wheels.

More than that even, he's like a little orange segway

BIG NEWS for Robots in Disguise fans! We have the very first north american sighting of both the Minicons AND the 5 step Megatronus toy. This seems fast considering we just got the first in hand pics of the minicons today.

But better than that, we also have sightings of Clash of the Transformers 3 step Optimus and Bumblebee. These are the very first images of 3 step Optimus and Bumblebee Clash of the Transformers (COTF) TRU exclusives. These came out of nowhere. The megatronus is also a Toysrus exclusive figure.

These were found in Canada by the newest addition to the Canadian sightings team TRozok21, and they will surely find their way to the US soon (if not already).

Yeah, especially when their RID display had nothing new.

Maybe they were afraid of spoiling the season 1 finale.

They could have shown them all except for toys pertaining to spoilers.

Haven't they always been? They look to have about as much articulation as the deployers themselves, which is the really sad part, but they at least are equitable, interesting, and that shark is awesome

I find the shark awesome too, high five!



And yeah, I also thought they were always bricks, so that they can get that one step transformation.

Well the mini-cons of old were mostly bricks due to various limitations, and these ones seem to be bricks due to being assemble-able (which if they aren't even detached from the sprue would probably explain the low price-point)


But yeah, that shark is soooo awesome looking
