The Energon Pub

SDCC 2016 had quite a few reveals from different lines including Combiner Wars/Platinum (Liokaiser), Robots in Disguise (Starscream), and Titans Return (Megatron, Bumblebee, Gnaw, and Lione). Below is a list of the different reveals followed by a ton of new images from the show floor. You can get a better look at all the reveals, including something totally new: Toysrus Exclusive Clash of the Transformers Robots in Disguise Decepticon Island Showdown set. This set features reissues of Warrior class Bumblebee and Steeljaw along with new weapons and a stasis cell. The MSRP is 39.99 and this is the same item that was found on a Toysrus computer database recently. Pictures are below along with more pictures to give you a taste of the extensive new gallery we have for you. You can click here or on any image to get to the gallery.

I like the look of the stasis pod. It's a shame that they didn't come with all the Decepticons. It would actually have been cool to have the packaging being a stasis pod, so when you open it it would be like releasing them.

Yeah, that would have been awesome.

That Megatron mold looks awful. They should have use it for Overlord.

Lego did that with their Bionicle line, so why can't Hasbro?

Haha, I knew there was something out there that did it. I had those too. What I also loved as a kid was dinosaur skeleton kits that came in plastic eggs. Megablocks did that too with their dragons recently.

Yes! I remember those! Seriously, why hasn't Hasbro gotten on this bandwagon? It'd be perfect for this line!

I want the set purely for the stasis pod and weapons. I already have a good version of those 2

Interesting that it includes CW Sky Lynx sword guns. I was hoping it might include the set that came with that big Optimus Prime TT release... Number I forgot.

That cryogenic shell would be cool packaging, but they probably feared for the extra effort/cost it would just get trashed, or obscure the toy too much or too hard to make it 'secure'. ????

Then Overlord would have looked awful. And tiny.

Bumblebee is pretty cool I have to say. But the real star of the show is Gnaw. He's so CUTE!
