These 2 characters are repaints of their regular show paint schemes in the blizzard themed blues and whites with some clear icy plastic. Some images are mirrored below for your enjoyment.
What do you think of all the new paint schemes? Like the blizzard theme going on recently? Let us know in the comments section and stay tuned for even more Seiberton galleries to come!
More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

No pics because I'm not aware of the feature. Can you let me know what I'm missing?

For the mini-con collectors out there, Seibertron.com is proud to present galleries for the first wave of the mini-con 4-pack. Blizard Strike Backtrack is an ice themed redeco of Backtrack which originally came with Deployer Overload. Scorch Strike Beastbox is a desert themed redeco. Blizzard Strike Swelter is an ice themed deco of the mini-con. Scorch Strike Undertone has a desert themed deco and has yet to see release individually or with a deployer. Only Backtrack and Undertone come with armor pieces

These remind me a bit of Rock Lords and those old McD's Fast Food Bots.

We have another addition to the Transformers: Robots in Disguise galleries here on Seibertron.com, in the form of the wave 3 of individually packed Mini-cons: spherical Forth and Hammer, who can be deployed by Overload; Swelter, part of Fracture's team; and the Blizzard Strike redeco of Drift's mini-con, Slipstream. You can check out the weird and wonderful tiny robots below, and click on any of the images for the full galleries!

Swelter is a lot less awesome than his art implies...
Forth's an amusing little roly poly gremlin, though.

Is there any indication that these minicons also have an extra energon animal you can do?
If not, I guess I will just stick to the first 2 waves and then go with the weapon ones.

I was just going to ask the same thing, but seeing as how Slipstream is a repaint, the energon parts are exactly the same. I'm not sure if it will be possible, unless his lion head armor forms the head of a new animal. In which case, that would be some true technical designing genius, and a lot of forethought.
Additionally...though Swelter is pretty much a repaint of Divebomb, his energon parts on the arms are slightly different. So I guess we wont know until somebody gets these in hand, or Hasbro tells us something.

So, looks like Drift's team is all set for some dead-of-winter action... in the continuity where we know TF's don't function well in extreme cold...

Forth looks like a great little figure, and if they ever show up near me I'll army-build him, but...Back and Forth.
BACK AND FORTH.
Whoever is doing the names for these guys seriously needs firing.

I though it was really funny and cute.
I hope one of the Hammer minicons is just called "Time".
At least fire the platinum guy before the naming guy,

I just instantly thought of Buck in Ice Age 3 and got a chuckle out of it.

these are dumb. Why couldn't we have better Arms micron Figures/accessories?
Re: New Galleries: Robots in Disguise Deployer Blizzard Strike Drift with Mini-Con Jetstorm

I think these are way better than the arms microns we got before.
How does this look like an octopus (speaking of looking dumb):

And remember these? I would rather we dont go back to this:

But if you liked them, thats cool.

I kinda get the sentiment, at least the microns made epic weapons, if the mini-cons at least had ball-jointed shoulders and thighs, I'd like them way more

Look at that Bumblebee in this pic and it's weapon mode and letme know if it looks epic to you.
hint hint, its not
Also, while the octopus did make a decent pile driver weapon for Frenzy and Rumble, you only got one per figure. I cannot express how much that blows.

Eh, I dunno. If Back and Forth were sold together it wouldn't bother me so much, but them being sold separately kinda kills the joke.
As for the naming guys, there are still some seriously terrible names for some of these guys. Lord Doomitron would be bad enough for a Big Bad, but for a Minicon?
Hammer and Anvil on the other hand is great.
