So here we are the tail end of 2014 and already some toys from 2015 are trickling out. Robots in Disguise is the new animated series and toy line geared towards younger fans, and thus brings back the Legion Class as sort of a bridge between the One-Step figures and Warrior Class. While I'm disappointed the figures don't have weapons included I do enjoy the scale which is much smaller than I remember.

Fellow Seibertronian and video reviewer chuckdawg1999 has obtained the first wave of Legion Class figures from Robots In Disguise (2015) and has made a quickie video review of them to showcase them and share his thoughts with us.

Hey Chuck, what was up with your audio in this review? Is everything all right with your equipment?

I had it set to record off the camera mic from the Salty Santa video and forgot to switch it back to my headset. Funny enough people complain when I use my headset they can't hear me. Don't worry for the other RID reviews it'll be on my headset.

Boy Hasbro...calling these weak is an understatement. Amazon's charging $8.99 a piece for these little buggers. That is beyond extortion! I was able to pick up Warrior Class Steeljaw and Strongarm from Amazon this week and both should be arriving Monday December 15th. Sadly I have seen reviews on both and they are piss poor examples for deluxes. The price of oil should change the price of these toys...these are nowhere near the quality of animated or any line to date for that matter. Hasbro should be ashamed and I'd really like to see this line shelf warm in the worst way...but there better be room on the pegs for Combiner Wars as well. I'll end up giving the RID Warrior Class figures to the Children's Hospital here after I mess with them for a bit...doesn't look like they are even worthy of display space on my shelves . Honestly Hasbro...are you ever gonna break the cycle of good line, crap line, good line, crap line, good line, crap line...etc?

I love how people are balling their wittle eyes out over this line. It's not made for fans. Get over it.

Good catch on Strongarm, it was popping in and out of stock on Amazon all weekend.
