First Images for Transformers Robots in Disguise One Step Night Ops Bumblebee and Ninja Sideswipe

Posted by william-james88 May 15, 2015 at 8:34am CDT 16,613 views
We had provided an article listing every Robots in Disguise figure that was yet to be announced and it seems we are now slowly getting the first images of these foretold products.

The first images, provided by listings from Redmercury, to come out for these new figures are those of Transformers Robots in Disguise One Step Night Ops Bumblebee and Ninja Sideswipe. These two are redecos of the previously released One Step Bumblebee and Sideswipe figures. I included an image of the foretold deco of the later for comparison.

Ninja Sideswipe sure looks like one wild rider.

You call the Masterpiece line and Combiner Wars neglect?


No, I'm talking about their sales expectation and realization. I don't think they neglected adult collectors on the whole. Just that several major product lines probably failed their sales forecast.

These colors look good. Since I don't have either figure yet I just might pick these two up

I'm pretty glad that kiddie line Combiner Wars is among them.

... except that price drop is temporary, and doesn't mean anything in the long run anyway.

And what evidence do you have that the RiD one isn't any more permanent? What can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.

The RID isnt permanent. The user who called it in said it was only on until May 30 when he went back to recheck the in store markers.

I'll verify that for a dollar!

BBTS has Jazz and Sideswipe in stock. I just ordered them since this is the only place I can find selling the two outside of the case.

Via the Mexican Hasbro Transformers site, we have stock images of the new Titan Changers Optimus Prime and Bumblebee from the Robots in Disguise animated show, with not much more information. The much reviled - by some parts of the Transformers collector community - Titan line (not the class) appears to be expanding, adding some more articulation and a 4-step transformation to their 'shampoo bottle' aesthetics! Check them out mirrored below.

Why do you guys even share this stuff if you are just going to repeat yourself ad infinitum?

Dear lord... Proportions are all off with these lanky, lean, post-like tall bodies! Still, they do transform and if the price is right, these could be lil' Timmy's first Transformers. The kid will have lot of fun and would surely move on to more complex TFs with age. So, if these oddballs TRANSFORMABLE TFs could replace the horrible and pointless champoo bottles, it will be all good.

Who is repeating what? Are you maybe confused with seeing the front page news posts appear as regular forum posts in the thread?


4-step changing titans. Well, they look slightly better than the previous assortments, I guess. They may trump the 3-steppers in complexity and articulation, which is kind of sad.

No, that's not it. Everyone is repeating everyone else. It's a huge waste of resources which could be solved by not sharing this stuff at all.

Could you please clarify what you mean exactly? Is it about the news reporting, or something else? :-?

I mean repeating "hurr hurr shampoo bottles" over and over again is a waste.

Ah, so it's with the style of reporting. I was just trying something a little different, and it's a lighthearted morning in the UK.

But note taken, thank you for your feedback! :D

I am baffled by these. Isn't this cannibalising the hyperchange line? It's even the very same characters. Also, the hyperchange ones looks way better in m opinion, these have really wonky proportions. And check out Optimus' arms!
