Giga Waaaaaaaaaaatt?!?

Those first Minicons look fun.

Well at least its cool to know Hasbro is releasing a big Optimus that has more articulation.

Indeed! Do we know how big he is? Are we assuming Leader? Voyager?

I am assuming leader based on the price point found in the listing.

Well he'd better look at leat 6.72x better than that pic if they're going to be asking some unreasonable price for it, cuz I definitely won't pay for the unpainted lump in that pic

Hasbro doesnt care what you think. They are already asking you to pay 50$ for this:

I know they don't which is why they don't get much of my money, once cw is done, I won't be getting many of their figures

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Yay weapon Slipstream!

Hot tamales! You're right! Minicons weapons!!!

Hasbro doesn't care what anyone thinks! they're only in it for the money

Thats not entirely true either. If they really didnt care at all things would be way more different than they are now. There would be no nods to G1, and they wouldnt even bother getting the MPs stateside. And thats just one small part of it.

I dont see it. I am looking at the pic hard and aside from a few jokes I could make about how the kids are acting, I am not noticing anything nee about the toys aside from the decos. What am I missing here? What weapon?

In the mobile game for rid aside from Minicons that turn into Sawblades, Torpedos and Cyclones there is a 4th class of minicons called weapons that transform into weapons.


I see one of the molds from that game in the toy photo so that's what they are.


It's not Minicons holding weapons it's minicons that become weapons.

Which one, I dont see it.

Look at the Slipstream on the right there. He has drill attachments on his back. and the mobile game said that we would be getting minicons who turn into weapons (and we've seen a few before) and slipstream was mentioned as a possible weapon minicon

He is the second one in from the right

He does have an awesome mini-con, a cool dino-hand weapon and a hilarious 'super' alt mode, been lookin' at getting some of these, might have to get him

Wait, since when do they tell you that?


And anyway (I would have submitted this this sooner had I known it was news), Peaugh actually uploaded a review of Grim yesterday.

Apparently if you have their pile of loot turned on they'll tell you so that you can make sure you know that they'll be charging you soon.

Fellow Seibertronians, hot on the heels of the in-hand images, we have a review of the RID Mini-con Battle Pack grimlock vs. Back from Peaugh. Check out the review and leave your thought in the comments below.

[Microraptor]

I need to find the guy who's in charge of naming the minicons and buy him a drink. Or ten. He deserves it.

[Evil Eye]

Back? BACK?

What kind of name is that?

[Sabrblade]

Back? BACK?

What kind of name is that?

The kind that goes with the other Mini-Con named "Forth"?
