Based on a real name? Easy pun? Corpyright shortcut?
Anyway, why not? Dare I say, why not.

I'm going for easy pun, since Thunderhoof is a deer, not a pony.

Actually, Chief Thunderhooves is a buffalo, setting the two even further out of sync.

How was I supposed to know, I don't watch MLP

You should. Awesome show is awesome. (The 2010 reboot, obviously.)

Now, let's get back to topic before someone get Burn'd.

From a TFW2005 user who was at the Nuremburg Toy Fair:

Also, for the RID show, the Minicons will get a comeback. There was a version of Drift on show, which futures a shooting mechanism for the Minicons. Looks a lot like the Warrior class but is called deployers.

I am so excited about this!

The RID game has confirmed some upcoming figures:

Legion Fixit
Legion Underbite
One-Step Changer Optimus Prime
One-Step Changer Drift
One-Step Changer Fracture
Warrior Sideswipe
Warrior Jazz
Three-Step Changer Steeljaw

Sounds pretty good.

BTW, when is the Optimus Prime wave going to be released?

Not necessarily.

TFW2005's Mr. Chaos has granted another bounty of toyline listings. BTW mods, if my mentioning news from other sites isn't allowed, let me know, I'd hate to be a pain in the neck for you guys (except maybe Burn, yeah).

RID15 Warrior Optimus Prime Video Review

Fellow Seibertron.com user Madeus Prime has notified us of a new video review for the Transformers: Robots in Disguise line, featuring the Warrior class Optimus Prime - adding to the diatribe over whether the big bot is dead or alive in the new show. But in the meantime, check out what Shartimus Prime has to say about the toy below!

In other Transformers: Robots in Disguise toy news, a strange listing on the French Hasbro site, under Littlest Pet Shop, has given detail on three upcoming One-Step figures of characters from the show. Ramping up the Decepticon side, Thunderhoof and Fracture, and a brand new orange Drift joins in too. Read on below for a very brief bio for each, translated from the French!

With all the Combiner Wars goodness, I almost forgot the Robots in Disguise thing and their one-step magic something-or-others.

Legion Windblade!!!

I just want a Warrior release for Thunderhoof, please make that happen hasbro!

"Megatronus," huh? Looks like someone's gone back to his old name...

thanks for share most videos i see i fast forward through articulation parts

The only thing I could think of as I was translating the French bios was this:

And nobody mentioned it, but HOLY MOLLY, they will actually give us a Clampdown toy!

Watch him turn out to be a Decepticon crab

But dont we already know that's what he is?

I got suuuuper excited about the headline, and then I saw that the Thunderhoof was a one-step, and then I stopped caring. :/

I feel we all think the same way.

These shows are made to sell toys and I will glady obey, I am sold on this guy, so make the damn toy!

But hey, we are getting two more warrior decepticons, which is a good sign.

I certainly didn't, I don't follow the show

OH yeah, you should check it out here.

And thats just his robot mode, he actually turns into a car

MAGIC THUNDERHOOF!

I'm sad at how few of these beast-bots are getting non-1-step releases. Although I'm kinda pleased most of those are in the Legion class, I tend to like those better than Deluxes. Cheaper, too.
Lot of Autobot repaints, though.


I hope Windblade is actually Windblade and not yet another instance of a name associated with a female character being tossed onto some generic male bot...

i guess no one plays that game thats advertised all over the RiD boxes cause half of those were already revealed in that. But anyway i wonder if windblade is going to be in the show or if they're just putting her in the RiD line cause generations no longer has a legion class. Also wouldnt be surprised at all if megatronus is a resurrected megatron, just like optimus he just cant stay dead.

But it has a Legends class, It could have gone there if it was totally unrelated.

Why would Megatron be resurrected when he's not dead?
