"Shark"? -Is this a build from the newer Minicons, or is this also something that can be built with the first wave?

Wave 1 and 2. I wanna say wave 1 builds the lion and wave 2 builds the shark.

Thanks all. Well as I said earlier, my son got Sandsting at Kmart. Too bad they wont be getting any more stock. I've seen the others at local Target stores (Beastbox, Ratbat, & Velocirazor). I guess I know what he'll want to spend his allowance on for the next few weeks heh...

My son was totally excited (especially now that Dad's advice about "keeping all the little parts where you can find them" has paid off)

My only question is---this appears to be an intentional design, not a fan build. How would one come to know this existed if it were not in any instructions anywhere? I would think, somewhat like the Marvel "build-a-figure" action figures, this would have added incentive to collect them all. It was just chance (well really my sons desire to have them all), that we got them.

These exra figures are really cool and bring a whole new layer to the idea of Transformers toys (the build a figure aspect) and I find it extremely well done. I love how everything fits perfectly together.

And yes, this was fully intentional and planed out (and well executed). While this was not in the instructions, it was stated in the Hasbro Panels at conventions. The people who got these early figured out these configurations based on the official announcements and the message has spread across the itnernet. I still find it sad that many kids out there would loveto know of this but since they dont know where to look or dont go onlie are not aware of this possibility.

I have been a fan since the very beginning, but have been out of the toy collecting aspect for a full decade. So I pass this torch to my son, who has basically collected random figures from various different lines up until now. I think he's found his niche with the RiD15 mini cons and Deployers (He has Drift & Fracture, but I wont be getting him any repaints, cause you know, Dad is mean like that)

. But I give total credit to all you fine folks on this website for revealing the Lion & Shark Builds. As you say, my son would have had no way of knowing otherwise.

They did need to advertise the energon guys better though. They are awesome, but you don't really know they exist, much like weapons storage, without looking for it

Would really prefer you guys to use content on Seibertron.com instead of linking offsite.

Seibertron has a new gallery for you today: Transformers Robots in Disguise Deployer Overload with Mini-Con Backtrack

This new Deployer figure can fire the new minicons which turn into balls, called cyclones. This should come as good news to those who already bought these new minicons, through the four pack for instance, and seeking extra playability.

This is also the very first toy release of the new character, Overload, who will be introduced in season two of Robots in Disguise. With the recent New York Toy Fair reveals, it appears this will be the only toy class to have this character, at least for the near future. This Deployer pack should be available at retail very soon.

Have you been buying the Deployer figures? If not, would this figure be your first? Let us know!

He looks cool, but I wish he looked and functioned just a bit better.

Well, if he is as big a villain in the show as the trailer's are making him out to be, we'll probably get a warrior class version of him.

that would be awesome, especially since they have been nailing the warriors recently

Well... lo and behold, K-Mart actually got some new toys in (odd since the sore is closing), my son got Beastbox, Ratbat, & Velocirazor all for $3.80 a piece + tax. So his collection is complete for the first two waves.

As for any new deployers... I'll await and see. He has plenty to keep him occupied for now. We'll see what cool gimmick (if any) they come up with. Also...Is there going to be a 4th deployer(Autobot) to counter Overload?

Crazybolt is coming down the line, but there are no planned autobot deployers in the near future as far as we've heard.

Oh they so have. Megatronus was awesome and Fracture is my favorite bike former. Still waiting on Thunderhoof and Quillfire, but things looks good for them too!

For thunderhoof, I may wait for takara, I'm not sure. it's more for the alt mode than the robot mode. And do you have Animated prowl? I think he really gives Fracture a run for his money in terms of bike former.

I'm stoked for those con warriors to start showing up at retail. I've seen the TRU Megatronus, but I'm holding out for the normal release.

On the fence about Overload. As you know I want his lil friend, but I'd rather a warrior version and I have that minicon mold already.

Them round ones are fun.

Dont you have that very same minicon but in a different colour? Is his name different?

I do have the ninja version yes. Love that guy! But I like how Fracture integrates better, especially the fact that Prowl's legs get a bit funky while Fracture's are nicely done. Just the way Prowl folds up in bike mode is the one thing that pushes Fracture ahead.

Yup and nope. I just like that shade of teal and I really like the Backtrack mold.

I'll just have to hold out for a good sale.

Same for the Drift deployer.

Crazybolt is a BOS though.

Remember to mention time when I write about them in a list.

I have been holding out on a sale of minicons ever since they came out and I have yet to have seen any of them get on sale either at Walmart or TRU.

^ If you have any K-Marts in your area, that are closing down. It did wonders for us.
