Same at my walmarts and toysrus. Those Bumblebee and Optimus dinobots at the lower price point sell out very quickly at every restock. Hasbro is underestimating the popularity of those toys.

You should know, like all of us, that "too old for a toy" (any toy) is a fallacy.

They're rated 3+, if 4 is too old that isn't much of an age range.

Emerje wrote:That was definitely my first thought when I saw the thumbnail here. I'm sure there's a connection to the movie just like I'm sure there is with Kingdom and Beast Wars reissues coming out ahead of the movie, I don't really buy the anniversary excuse. Remember that we got the earlier G1 reissues at Walmart because Hasbro wanted to get 80s toys into stores in time for the first 80s based Bumblebee movie. Here we are again getting a bunch of Beast Wars characters into stores in time for a Beast Wars heavy movie.

Yeah, the rescue bots line has been promoting/linked to whatever media hasbro wants it to promote lately, with the Rescue Bots show over. So last year, there was a big emphasis on Dinobots in the Cyberverse toyline and media, so Rescue Bots offered similar characters for th younger age segment. And this would be the same with ROTB, where the only character in that set not in ROTB being Grimlock.

They didn't really show up at Walmart. Instead they were found at Kroger's I think. And yeah, hard to find on e-bay. I am selling two of them but I'm in Canada so shipping would be ridiculous.

chuckdawg1999 wrote:It's nice to see Beast Wars being represented in Rescue Bots with Optimus Primal being a part of the Classic Heroes line, kinda hard to swallow that a character that debuted in the 90s is now considered classic. Transformation is what you would expect and the styling is of that soft, younger style, I love the grin on the gorilla head. Optimus Primal is perfect for smaller hands, or as a desk toy for older Beast Wars fans.

If I see it in store and it's not 30$+, I'd buy it.

Enjoy!
chuckdawg1999 wrote:It's incredible to think that for all the time that Rescue Bots has been around, the longest-running Transformers line, Megatron of all characters hasn't made an appearance, until now. Sure, this is a simplified figure, but it's cool to see Megs reimagined as a drill tank, a standard of Japanese mecha stories. If you collect Rescue Bots then adding Megatron to your collection is a must.

That's why these new toys are NOT "Rescue Bots." They have the style and spirit, but they are not in the Rescue Bots universe.
As for that Drill Tanks Megs, I'd really love for Reprolabels to turn it into the IDW miner Megs. A cute and chibified IDW Miner Megs. That would be way cool!

That's a pretty chad move. Especially if it's a guy and his top is that of a business suit.

You do realise that was just a French translation right? These toys know who they're marketed for.

Yes. I'm sorry about offending the French users of this site. Even Kankrabat. I was more joking on the transformation. Yes, I know, it doesn't NEED to be better.

Look up the European packaging. Those are usually overkill with the number of languages on the box.
