Hasbro updated their website's Robots in Disguise section to both give a synopsis on the current season (which is officially titled as Season 4) and an episode count fo the series.

The episode count (if true) gives us the first hint at more episodes to come. We knew season 4 would have 26 episodes, but that only gives us a total episode count of 71. Hasbro instead writes a total count of 78 episodes, so there are 7 episodes beyond season 4. Maybe this will be similar to that Starscream arc made up of only 6 episodes.

Here is the previously mentioned synopsis:

Combine and conquer Season 4 with your favorite Transformers: Robots in Disguise. Bumblebee’s rogue team of young Autobots increases their sphere of influence and their fight against the Decepticons from the Antarctic to the moon! Whether handling road races or runaway trains, fugitives or viruses, this team is out of the shadows and ready to combine and conquer! Blurr Roll into adventure with new teammates and your favorite Transformers: Robots in Disguise.

Makes one wonder who wrote that description since both the Hasbro brand team (John Warden and Ben Montano, at least) and the show's creators (Adam Beechen, at least) treat the Starscream arc as an extension of Season 2 and current season as the third.

Also, whoever wrote it snuck in a few episode titles in there ("Sphere of Influence", "Out of the Shadows").

Though, the repetition of "combine and conquer" is a little odd, as is calling Bumblebee's team a "rogue" team.

But people part of the show did call it season 4. remember this?

a now removed instagram post from Tim Cahill, confirming a Fourth Season is in the works

He's a Hasbro studios writer.

Plus I have it under very good authority that the voice cast was also given the info that the starscream episodes were season 3.

Anyways, watching the new episodes and I realized that Blastwave is using the Megatronus model so an accurate toy should have been a redeco of Megatronus and not Bludgeon.

A similar thing happened back with Beast Wars in which Doug Parker (Terrorsaur's voice actor) once mentioned (at a time before Season 2 premiered) his having recorded Terrosaur lines for "Season 3" of that show when Terrorsaur died in the first episode of Season 2.

Hold on? did Nitra just say that Blastwave escaped from Trypticon prison? does this mean that we might see Trypticon in this?(kinda like we saw Metroplex & Fort Max in TF Animated)

I'm pretty sure it's just a reference and a name-drop -- RiD's been fond of those lately. Maybe, but especially since we don't see much of Cybertron in this series; don't hold your breath.

Nightra was lying about his escape, since he's the bounty hunter after her and not vice versa like she initially claimed.

As for Trypticon Prison, since the Nemesis was made from Trypticon, who in turn was originally made from Trypticon Station, it's possible that this Trypticon Prison is the Nemesis having been refitted into a prison after it was downed in Predacons Rising.

Yeah I'm going with the whole "turning the dead spaceship into a prison" although it's likely grounded and on Cybertron there is a possibility that the Nemesis was fixed and is now a mobile prison ship like the Alchemor.

If that's the case how long before Trypticon crashes here to eh?

I can't wait until Mecha Godzilla speeds down to the planet at impossible speed, killing all life instantly.

So.....toywise....Nightra & Flamesword will just be repaints of Strongarm & Crazybolt

btw it was cool to see a full reveal of Motormaster(who looks even better than the toy does)

Bee brings up a good point in episode 12, that villains don't think they are doing wrong. I have already heard people talking about this concept IRL but its nice to add it to the show for people who have not thought of it yet.

Except for cases where it's villains who boast such rhetoric as "My evil will reign supreme!" or "You cannot defeat the powers of evil!" or even just "Of course I'm a bad guy, I'm EVIL!"

I don't think them getting Toys is a sure thing. Remember that polar bear who had steel jaws model?
