I don't see any actual transformers in that picture. Just Rescue Heroes with autobot symbols on their clothing.

So, humans with TRUE Action Master partners, in that they also don't transform. Well, as long as the line has some actual TFs that they're working with as claimed, I guess it just barely makes sense.

Or are these little gadgets made from spare parts of specific TFs? Only the orange winch doesn't look like anyone I can think of. There was that line in the 2007 movie about them producing bullets and whatnot the way we grow fingernails and hair, so...did Optimus, Bumblebee, Prowl, Inferno, Mincon Buzzsaw and, um, Evac(?) have these things surgically removed? Is our newest generation of Rescue Heroes harnessing the power of cyber-tumors(TM)?!?

I am seeing some joints in the vehicles, giving them some articulation.

Dare I say it, we could be looking at a combiner here.

Scooter!

"da fug?"

If we must have humans dressing up like Transformers, can't they at least be hot girls?

They really do look like they could be Voltron-style combiners, plus a jetpack. But even if they do, I fear it will have ugly limbs, just like the PCCs. Great for my nephew, but not something for myself.

O no, we're not importing Kiss Players into the US!

That's cool!! Gotta start the kids out younger and younger. Get 'em hooked at age 3.

I'm half-way tempted to pick up that "Prime" one just to add to my Optimus collection for the sheer fun of it.

"he said, with a PCC avatar and sig image." Although, to be honest, I like the looks of that Dinobots dealio.

Point. But I do hate the look of all the PCCs other than Grimstone.

The more I look at the Rescue Bots, the more I can see how they form limbs. The only question is, is it Optimus or Jazz who says "And I'll form the head!"?

So no transformations involve?

kinda look llike a simpler version of the human alliance.It has very good potential and its fun to have small humans to interact.
