We first showed you Rescue Bots, Hasbro's new line of young child friendly figures, during our BotCon 2011 coverage. Now, UK toy retailer Kapow Toys has updated their blog with official images of Rescue Robots Waves 1 & 2, featuring Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, and Heatwave.



Seibertron.com is your ultimate Transformers resource!

Honestly, that Prime is pretty damn good for what it is!

Optimus looks good,so does bumblebee,but Heatwave should be rodimus.

ok i have to admit that prime is pretty good the rest not so much.

I know that these are directed for younger fans, but I just cannot get over how weird they look to me. Prime looks OK, Heatwave's a meh, but Bumblebee looks like a midgit in an Animated Bumblebee costume.

at last, an optimus WITHOUT a mock grill! Though it appears optimus and heatwave transform exactly the same way.....
WHO CARES?
It may be embarassing, being an adult and all, but I will buy these when they hit shelves!

I'm lovin' this prime for my baby's xmas gift!

Heatwave.....I was thinking Inferno, but he does look a little like rodimus in Bot mode

He does look a little bit like Rodimus, but I'm not so sure.

Eh why not. After all, Rodimus could have been a fire truck at one time:

Neat! I'll be grabbing Optimus for sure!

Awww man. You had to throw that awesome Powermaster Rodimus photo in there. That would have been a freakin' sweet brick.

Hmm neat little figures. I might consider buying this for my lil cousins who likes to play rough with toys .

Optimus looks really nice . Heck I think he looks better than RTS Legends Optimus xP.

Bumblebee...Fat.All I can seem to think when I see him is the word "Fat" or something similar like "chubby","pudgy","midget" or "blob"...Nuff' said.

Heatwave...I hate the huge fists and I dislike his head >.>...

So after thinking I'm going to get to skip DOTM Optimus entirely, thus not adding to an already unwieldy OP collection, I now have Kre-O, Rescue Bots, rime (that's the shorthand I'm using for the Hub's series) and an entirely new Masterpiece?

1 step ahead, 5 steps back!

This is totally random, but can one of you guys please clear this up for me?
Recently, I aquired a robot.
It's no transformer.
It looks very gorilla like, has claws for hands, tank treads on the back of his feet, a visor that covers his face, a torso that pops up to reveal twin cannons, rotating shoulder mounted machine guns, a flip out missile launcher on one inner shoulder, a flip out rocket pod on the other, he's a combination of light and dark blue, has an opening cockpit on his head, and has a number written on his chest in yellow, can't remember what. he's very round and kinda has a whatever year in 2000 go bot feel to him, even though he's not a transformer. anyone recognize the description? if so, please let me know! It's been killing me, and I didnt wanna ask. I figured sabrblade or someone would know. it says TAKARA on it. thats all.

Also, that Prime looks decent. Not too bothered about the other guys.

No, that's transmetal optimus primal.
the bot I got has a cockpit and is a total mech suit. it looks kinda like the girl in the mech suit from megaman. but it's not her bot or anything megaman at all.
He's just a round grunty mech suit.

sweet, the transforming bricks are back
brick to vehicle and back!

I actually.. like that Optimus Prime.

I'm prolly gonna have to pick him up even though I generally stay away from the kiddie-transformer toys.
