It's a been a while really since we've offered some new toy galleries here on Seibertron.com, but we're back, we're ready and we're up to speed with the latest releases by bringing you the first wave of Legion figures from the Transformers: Robots in Disguise animated series! Check out some preview images below of Transformers Prime veterans Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, and new Autobot and Decepticon characters Strongarm and Steeljaw, and click on any of them for the full galleries.

I think they will go nicely with my legends/cyberverse stuff, can't wait.

News Credits: 3 · Fri Dec 12, 2014 8:36 am

These are nice!

News Credits: 7 · Fri Dec 12, 2014 9:52 am

Cyberverse is back!
... with giant, ugly stickers *grumble*.

Somebody elsewhere mentioned Strongarm kinda looks like a long-lost Diaclone mold, and I can't unsee that. :lol:

EDIT: Wait, does she have knees and elbows?!

Whoa

That's an unreleased G2 GoBot Hound! I guess Seibs snagged one. Did you get the other one?

Also, nice to see Strongarm in scale with a G2 GoBot/Spychanger, as I think they are close enough in scale myself.

Ok, as for these guys themselves overall, I wish they came with weapons, but I like how they look. While I'll skip most of the mainline bigger releases, Strongarm and Steeljaw will fit nicely with my Cyberverse nicely.

I love small TFs but there is no way I'm paying €9 for one of these

Strongarm and Steejaw look great, actually. Hopefully they'll show up over here- my newfound love of tiny Transformers dictates that i get them.

Prime and Bumblebee on the other hand...nah.

why is steeljaw so stumpy? everone looks great but him & hes the character i really want a figure of. They also need to lose those big ass emblems or make them blend in more, they looked slapped on with every figure we've seen so far. Any word of what the price for these guys are going to be?

Those stickers are a standard size in order to work with the complimenting app, so they do look too big on smaller figure.

How can Strongarm and Steeljaw be so great they almost look like full-sized figures, while Prime and Bumblebee have original-Cybertron-Legends levels of articulation? They don't even have knees! I'd be fine with no elbows, but no knees is just ridiculous.

i might buy prime, but im banking on the deluxes (or whatever their called).

The Transformers Robots in Disguise 2015 galleries keep rolling along with a couple new figures that we have not seen a whole lot of. Our new high quality gallery inductees include 3-Step Hyperchange Bumblebee and Grimlock. These Hyperchange toys are much larger that stand at 8 to 10 inches tall and as the packaging suggests, transforms in 3 steps. When you are done checking out these guys, you can also check out our galleries of the Robots in Disguise 2015 Legion class toys. Click on any of the below images to see the full galleries and stay tuned right here at Seibertron.com for more Robots in Disguise 2015 galleries as well as many more Transformers galleries to come.

The Transformers Robots in Disguise 2015 galleries keep coming your way with the most anticipated figures of the line thus far: the warrior class. This is the class that is most representative of the deluxe class. Also, these figures are the most collector oriented, according to Hasbro, since they are the most articulated figures from the line. Our new high quality gallery inductees include Bumblebee, Steeljaw, Strongarm and Grimlock.

When you are done checking out these guys, you can also check out our galleries of the Robots in Disguise 2015 Legion class toys and Robots in Disguise 2015 3-step toys.

The trick with getting Steeljaw to stand properly is to use the wheels as his back heels. If you stand him properly with the wheels as his heels, he works just fine.

Kinda depressing how unpainted the package art makes the figures look, especially Strongarm.

News Credits: 462 · Thu Dec 18, 2014 9:47 pm

I'm gonna wait and see what Takara does with these in their Transformers Adventure line since these toys need a serious amount of more paint to be show-accurate.

Bumblebee has some great potential, and I could think of a half dozen other characters he could be repainted as with maybe a new head.

Steel Jaw is also looking really good. I think I will pick him up for sure.

News Credits: 15 · Fri Dec 19, 2014 9:25 am

Wow. I didn't realize how inaccurate Steeljaw's headsculpt was until I looked at the figure in-package. Not that I was all that excited about him, but it's clear that we've got another Skylynx/Darksteel on our hands.

Gonna need an upgrade kit for that. >:oP

I don't it's that far off. The toy just has a more pronounced snout than the CG model has. Let's see if Takara's Adventure version can bring out the cartoon face better without all that silver on Hasbro's RID version.

After all, the head on the packaging art isn't quite the same as the cartoon one either:

Why are we demanding that the toys need more paint? They are painted enough as it is.

We are a spoiled fandom.

I guess Sabrblade. But as someone who had begged their parents for painted transformers in the 1980's I always get them chipped. Where as the colored plastic of the post 1980's transformers look prettier longer.

I think I agree with Towline. There are certain things that should absolutely be painted (like most of the Transformers faces or face shields), but I don't like the current usage of paints to make large areas of plastic look the "same" color by painting it instead of doing the plastic as that color. I also am frustrated with how many paint applications have flaws. Case in point: I just got my first shipment of Combiner Wars Legends figures. All 5 Thundercrackers had various paint flaws. It's frustrating to say the least!
