Toy Fair US 2015 Coverage Robots in Disguise New Product Updates and Pictures

In addition to the previous Transformers: Robots in Disguise news post, featuring the main toy line for the animated series, check out below Hasbro's Toy Fair 2015 showcase of the Hero Mashers for the same characters, all mixed and matched for their/our own entertainment! Featuring both Decepticons and Autobots, from Steeljaw to Strongarm via Clampdown and Bumblebee.

I will be skipping this entire line. Super uninterested in any of it.

Jazz and Swipe are bought.

Jazz would be cool if he wasn't under detailed like that. I mean, what was I expecting? The mold looks great, though.

Sideswipe looks fantastic all around.

To keep us busy: http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/ ... als/32225/

Sideswipe is surprisingly cool. He's the only thing making me want in on this line so far. Not even the big Prime is doing it for me. But that's okay. More money for all the TOTALLY AWESOME Combiner Wars toys coming out.

Cool bit about the Minicons - each sprue has a piece on it that can be combined with pieces from other Minicons, and if you buy the whole wave of them you can make a new bot out of said pieces. Pretty neat concept! The transformations also really remind me of the data discs from FoC, just not automatic/spring-loaded like those.

RID Jazz doesn't hvae a visor?!? GOD DAMN IT. At least the toy does look cool

While Seibertron has provided a bunch of photos of the newly announced Robots in Disguise figures, showcased at the US Toy Fair, Hasbro has released the official pictures.

These give us an up close look at the new minicons and the clear armour bits they come with. It is interesting to note that these clear plastic pieces are packaged in a way that imitates the minicon's fraction symbol. The ones shaped as disks are for Drift while the ones shapes like arrow heads (torpedos) are for Fracture.

Scott notes the following regarding what he saw at the show:

So many of these promo shots are basically repeats of each other...


The Mini-Cons are a bit of a lot of things: the Data Discs, the Construct-Bot dinosaurs, even a bit of BMOG. I wonder if there's a specific bot you make after getting them all, or if it's just an open-ended make whatever.
