Nice to see them actually using a version of the theme song in these commercials.

That's nice, now can we get some info on when season 3 airs? 
Animation looks like it could have come off the show, which is a nice touch. On the other hand, I'm hoping this isn't all there is for the Rescue Dinobots. I'd kind of like to have bigger transforming versions of the Rescue Bots that the show's actually about in their dino modes.

so Optimus Prime the Dinosaur is now Optimus Primal. Sorry there is only one Optimus Primal and he was the Maximal Commander of the Axalon Crew.

If prime Optimus prime has a beast mode wouldn't that have been a bit helpful when fighting the cloned predacons? Or is this rescue bots exclusive?

Many speculate this dino mode of his to be a one-episode occurrence that might have him giving it up at the episode's conclusion, while Rescue Force Sigma-17 opts to keep all of theirs.Autobot tap out wrote:If prime Optimus prime has a beast mode wouldn't that have been a bit helpful when fighting the cloned predacons?

My theory is that whatever happens, happens shortly before the end of season 2 of "Prime", and thus Optimus would wind up never using dino mode in combat because he didn't have a chance before near-death, and lost it when he was rebuilt. That'd also cover Prime not looking different in Season 3 of Rescue Bots.
But if it turns out to just be a continuity error, it's not like it'd be the first one.

Let's hope they have something planned since they've been fairly good at keeping the show in continuity, what with their having a timeline chart that maps out this show's episode with the Prime show's episodes.Nemesis Primal wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Many speculate this dino mode of his to be a one-episode occurrence that might have him giving it up at the episode's conclusion, while Rescue Force Sigma-17 opts to keep all of theirs.Autobot tap out wrote:If prime Optimus prime has a beast mode wouldn't that have been a bit helpful when fighting the cloned predacons?

Yeah, I hope so too, and it'll probably turn out okay, but there's still a part of me at the back of my brain worried this'll turn into the next "Earthforce". (I have not experienced Earthforce myself, but I have heard tell.)

Kohl's exclusive? That thing's been at Walmart for months. Discounted down to $24.99, even, since it's been shelfwarming for so long.

And the odd thing about that is, it has "A Kohl's Exclusive" sticker on it. Here's a pic:
Having never seen the other mass release piece, is there any deco difference? or is it literally just the sticker on the package?

It looks dead-on the same as the Walmart pack from last Christmas, no deco difference that I can see even on the mini-figures. Probably was assumed that Walmart had long run out of them (they have around here at least), so they solicited them to Kohl's as an exclusive for this year.

I'd be curious if you could scrub that blue energon deco paint off the front of the cab... or if there are wacky tattoo-style details molded into the front of him. I kinda want a version of this Prime, but would prefer it look more G1.

Looking at mine, the blue Energize tech detailing is indeed painted onto the red plastic, but the Autobot symbol with the ring is molded into the plastic, so removing the blue paint from that might be tricky.gothsaurus wrote:I'd be curious if you could scrub that blue energon deco paint off the front of the cab... or if there are wacky tattoo-style details molded into the front of him.

Site sponsor BigBadToyStore gives us a first look at a couple new Transformers: Rescue Bots Rescan 2015 series 1 figures. Salvage who transforms into a garbage truck is in the wave with the new Rescan Optimus Prime and the previously revealed Boulder and Chase. Check out the bot and alt mode images from the listing which is scheduled to drop in December.

So, does Salvage rescue the environment by mining landfills for recyclable and compostable waste? Shame he wasn't around for the Earth Day ep.

Alas, another new character who shan't make it into the show.
Though, his torso makes me think of Rescue Roy.
And why are they making another Optimus figure based on the first one?

I still say we need an episode like Autoboot Camp where the Rescue Bots remenise on some of the Cybertronians they trained with, maybe one of the older siblings has a reunion, and Hoist, Medix, and now Salvage all get a quicky shout out. They could easily be buddies of Chase, (Repo?) Heatwave, and Boulder respectively.
Come to think of it, I don't think we got our AoE garbage truck, did we?
