I've seen the four packs though but not any of the singles. I'd rather they just keep releasing them in singles though as I actually like the translucent armor and weapons and the four packs only have those for two of them.

Wave 3 and 4 were both found at merket six stores like Ross and Marshalls.
The bigger stores sold off their inventory probably due to the line's weaponizer rebranding which these minicons are not a part of.

I pretty regularly check Ross, TJ Maxx, Big Lots and Marshalls and haven't seen any of these from any wave. Last week I had the opportunity to check a 5 below and a DD's Discounts and still nothing. The best I've found in months was the five step Megatronus Toys R Us exclusive at a Ross that I left on the shelf because I didn't want it.

After the in-hand images we saw a while back for the two new Warrior class figures in the Transformers: Robots in Disguise line - Scorponok and Windblade - we also have two video reviews for the Decepticon and Autobot, courtesy of tfrWLDNAS on YouTube in his post Roll Out Roll Call haul look. Check them out embedded below!

Like the look of Windblade and Scorponok! Since the Titan Force set (off of eBay) will be arriving sometime soon, I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for Scorponok.

I picked up a warrior class Thunderhoof yesterday, somewhere here in North Carolina east of Topsail Beach, and I seem to have a problem with him. Honestly, it could be user error, but I can't get his legs to snap in properly when transforming him to alt mode. Any help would be appreciated.

The exact issue is in snapping his tractor cab together.

Well dang Iron! I just transformed him because I wanted to help you out, but he just went right together.
I remember having a similar issue the first couple of times I TFed him too. Is it the main tabs that hold his legs together that are giving you trouble?

I found the problem.

Two of the same part, when they should be opposites? #-o

Do you have the receipt to bring it back to the store?

News Credits: 90 · by **Tyrannacon** » Mon Aug 01, 2016 1:14 pm

Talking about horrid QC/QA. That would definitely make it hard for it to come together. Is the best thing taking it back to the store for a refund or swap of a possible defective one again or would it be better in contacting Hasbro with it?

Anyone know if this is Generations Legends sized?

Nope. Bought it while traveling on vaca, and tossed the receipt with other travel trash. Ah well, guess he stays in robot mode.

Kinda in between legends and deluxe size.

Legends sized.

Definitely Generations sized, right? Like, Swerve and Windcharger and Groove and not the Legion size RiD has for some reason kept?

News Credits: 41 · by **Cobotron** » Mon Aug 01, 2016 7:17 pm

The RID Commander class are all just a tad bigger than the Legends. Just a tad.

News Credits: 191 · by **Kurona** » Mon Aug 01, 2016 7:44 pm

... just a tad taller than Generations Legends or RiD Legends?

edit: never mind, just saw your picture. Helps a lot, thanks!

So basically the size of the old Cyberverse Commander class, but with 5mm hands.

So close to having the old Basic/Scout class size back.

Playing with that toy right now, I love all that articulation in that size.

I saw warrior class Grimlock (G1 paint) on the pegs for the first time and I was surprised when I saw the back of the package. I'm sorry if this has been brought up multiple times before but I'm not a fan of this line at all but what I saw got my attention really.

Will we see a Takara release of Grimlock with those awesome shine paint apps? Thanks in advance. :VEHI:

Thoughts?

Aside from the deco, is he any different to the Hasbro version?

But yeah I asked so that people who own the mold could also reply with their thoughts, especially since this is the Hasbro thread.

Fellow Seibertronian Bounti76 has sent us a notification of Transformers Robots in Disguise Legion class Groundbuster and Bisk finally showing up at US retail, after several reviews, galleries, images and whatnots - including our own set of galleries for both Decepticon beasties here. Check out proof of purchase below, from a Walmart in Centerville, Utah!

Remember, if you come across new toys, make sure to flag them up in our regional boards, and in the Sightings database to help out fellow fans and collectors.
