I was going to get Windblade to go with Metroplex but that mouth is... ehh. Does Takara put these little guys out because I may have to wait for theirs.

These are gonna be fun. Even that silly Windblade.
I'm still waiting for Red Alert(Arctic Emergency Swipe, or whatever he's called. :-P

LOL! And here's me feeling a little bad for having bought a legends-sized Windblade off a third party... If this is the best Hasbro can do I'll happily give Iron Factory the money instead.

Indeed!

I also would have thought that Clampdown would have been Warrior class instead of Quillfire. Don't get me wrong, Quill's great and I'll still get him, but a bigger Clampdown or Underbite would complete the Steeljaw Pack.

Last I checked they were on Amazon but only as add-ons

Overload screams Megatronus to me. Possible repaint down the line? I like how they show Windblade with swords but no weapons are included. FYI peeps, don't believe BBTS when they say November for these figures. I'd lean more towards December for them to come in.

The launchers are less blatantly obnoxious on these guys. Overload and his little ball of death certainly looks pretty cool...

Are the deployers cross compatible despite the radically different shapes of the minicons? because that minicon shape doesn't look compatible with drift at all, and I'm wondering what the hell marketing was thinking if they're making the minicons all deployer specific.

all i know is that they're gonna be using the FOC Grimlock mold for a new redeco of RID Grimlock! they seem to redeco other Grimlocks into the RID one of late

Overload looks a little like Transformers uk Centurion, he must be mine.

Takara is retooling foc grimlock, not Hasbro. They are both handling this line completely differently. Hasbro is releasinf no voyagers.

Looks neat and I bet he will be on the show if not he'll be the first character to get a toy that wasn't seen on the show! Wait haven't we seen that Ball Minicon before cough coughvtraning woth micronus prime cough cough idk if it is... lol...

Only time will tell. For all we know he could be another toy-only non-show character.

Definitely isn't. First and foremost he's a decepticon, pair that with the fact that micronus looks nothing like this guy besides their base shape pretty much eliminates any possibility of it being the same character.

Overload appears to be based on the cartoon model of the illusionary Decepticon that Micronus used to train Optimus in the Realm of the Primes back in "Out of Focus", but given a proper head.

This isn't to say that that illusionary Decepticon was Overload, or that Overload might appear in season 2 using this cartoon model. Rather, it's just to show where the design for Overload's toy comes from.

Likewise, Backtrack is based on the spherical Mini-Cons this illusionary Decepticon was equipped with.

Thanks for the images Sabr! It does look pretty clearly similar to toy and cartoon.

I'm feeling the way Overload's launcher gimmick appears to disappear in bot mode. I'm assuming its chilling backpack style? That roly poly minicon looks like a lot of fun and it would be cool to make a little army of those guys.

Do we know if there will be any others that share the same gimmick as Backtrack? I see there is four new minicons with no pics (Hammer, Kickback, Swelter and Slipstream (redeco?)) and then there are the other two that become weapons (Windstrike & Blu?). I'm super curious to see what Kickback looks like.

RID seems to have a fever and the only prescription is... more minicons! :MINI:

Yeah, I read your earlier post; I just meant, is this an emerging theme, since there is also a sword mini-con, or are they just exceptions >:oP

Windstrike and Bludgeon aren't part of the Deployers assortment. They're a different assortment.

I personally am a fan of them doing minicons that become weapons. I will buy both since they make nice weapons
