I wonder if you pull any of the Minicons to pieces and reverse them so that you have less of them sticking out when docked in the Deployer - or would it require a custom part ?
I think they look a bit big when plugged in and not so good with the bare grasping part showing.

Quillfire is an interesting figure. I'm not sure if I 100% like it due to a few nagging issues with the head, and wrists. The figure compacts even more for transformation becoming a really nice off-road type vehicle. If you're looking to complete the RID line I can give it a solid recommendation, other wise you might want to think about it a bit.

Which bike Transformers do you like?

They should definitely make more Warrior class toys. Bisk would be very cool. And Underbite definitely needs a bigger version. Unfortunately they don't make Voyagers in this line but a three-step-change might as well be cool for him. And I would love to see a toy of that Decepticon combiner who's formed of those 6 spiders. But that won't happen.

I'd love to see a RID style cartoony Windblade figure. I do think they could slap another head on the gen figure and that could pass though.Lunatic Prime wrote:And will we get a redeco of Windblade?

Takara fixed the heel issue with Slipstream.
Oh and Cary, you want to see what an RID Style Windblade toy would look like? Your wish is my command.

You can just use/buy the Generations version if you like her normal color scheme. A new R.I.D. Warrior Class version in the same colors would just be a waste of money.

Thing is: i would love it if they did that windblade up with a new shell that was the RiD version (they are identical except for aesthetic after all). and my current Windblade proudly stands with Metroplex as his city speaker

I really like the designs of the Decepticons in RID and I would like to see more of them get Toys, I'm glad that Hasbro finally released more Decepticons since the line was seriously lacking them. A Warrior class Skowl would be cool, Maybe a larger version of Clampdown and Underbite needs a larger toy. Perhaps Springload could get a better toy since the One-step really doesn't interest me.

Yeah, Skowl would be great. I'm totally good with Clampdown's Legends class figure but just scalewise a Warrior class would be cool. I like one-step-Springload's alt mode. Looks really cool. If they'll make a Warrior class that one would get the show accurate alt mode I guess but I prefer the present one.
A Warrior Hammerstrike would also be great.
What I just noticed is that they don't make toys of characters that do not appear in the show (except of Mini-Cons and Tiny Titans). They definitely do not need more Decepticons than there already are in the show. But with the Autobots they just repaint the crap out of them.

Now as you all remember, we have seen screen shots from the games before and this has led to some new toys, so while this does not confirm any new toys it does give us potential looks at possible toys. Take a gander down below and sound off in the comments section to let everyone know your thoughts on the new game characters.
I'm very interested in the new weapon type Mini-Cons.
Especially this one (also shown above):
http://www.transformers-universe.com/include.php?path=content/ToyDB_Info.php&Toy_ID=6287&Sprache=0
On this site he's listed as Bludgeon but I saw that Bludgeon actually is packed in that new Battle Pack with Optimus Prime and that one is also black but just a normal Cyclone, not a weapon type.

The ones that come with the energon armor and the minicons.


and that deployer Crazybolt

Yeah, Optimus looks really cool in his Energon armor. And I hope that the deployer gimmick works on Crazybolt better than on Overload.

I just picked up BP OP this weekend (about to drop some pics in my neck of the woods) and I noticed that as well. As a bonus the axe can also store in "super axe" mode. And if you're feeling real froggy, you can shove the axe in his backpack.Just in case anyone missed it in my other review, and by the numbers it looks like they have; in the shoulder of Optimus Prime from the Minicon Battle pack there's a slot, this allows the ax to be stored in vehicle mode. Very close to the Warrior Class version.
The super Ax mode is very flimsy on mine so I never tried storing it like that. I see Hyperchange Blizzard Drift, but I never saw a normal version of Drift as a Hyperchange figure. Did I miss something?

If you're talking about the battle packs that come with a minicon, then cyberverse size. OP scales great with the legion autobots.RAR wrote:I wonder what size some of those RID toys might be - they look fairly basic so I'm strugling to think what size class they would fit in some case they could be either Minicons or Legions for example.
You should give some of the other sizes a chance. For example...Hellscream9999 wrote:meh, not interested until we get warrior class figures

Haven't seen any of the new stuff 'round here. But they lack too much articulation for me to buy them right now - with my financial situation as it stands. I got my 'cute' unarticulated figures back with the mini-cons in Armada, but I'm looking into Dragonus
