We had in box images for Transformers Robots in Disguise Activator Optimus Prime & Hi-Test, which was our first look at the figure and the first time we even knew it was coming. Thanks to Scotty P, we now have official images to get a better look at this two pack and how it looks in both modes. This image was found on a hidden Amazon listing.
Enjoy!

I'm not certain I wouldn't giggle a lot and buy that box immediately.

Remold the head, redeco it, and you got a decent RiD laser OP or RiD Scourge (fitting since he's from the real RiD)

The dispenser does seem like it is meant to look like Optimus Prime is shooting bubbles out of his mouth when in use. Hopefully this will encourage kids to use soap rather than create a mess by launching foam all over."Autobots have arrived on our planet for one more mission.

Anyone else mentally hearing Optimus going "Hrmp hrmpp BLARRRGGHHHHHHHHH"

I spent the majority of my time while writing that article trying not to laugh at the idea of Prime barfing up soap bubbles. Glad I'm not the only one.
If you like KO and Breakdown I'd recommend reading the windblade comics. They become conjunx edura.

Va'al wrote:Notified by fellow Seibertronian Sabrblade, we checked in with AllSpark user SwiftEagle who reports a Transformers: Robots in Disguise Warrior class Soundwave variant found. The new version has some added plastic to the otherwise entirely lightpiped facesculpt, adding the traditional faceplate, and a different pattern on the scanning sticker. Check it out for yourselves in the images below!Just found at Target in CT. The packaging datestamp is 70161, the same as the plate-less version on the pegs with him.
It's a new addition to the plastic of his face.
Took me a bit to find it but someone on Tfw2005 added some silver paint to his soundwave on the face where it was raised up and itseems to match the faceplate variant So I am sure it is paint like people suggested

You can see in the pic that the blue-mouthplated one is MOSC. How could it be painted while it was still inside its unopened packaging?GalvatronG1 wrote:Took me a bit to find it but someone on Tfw2005 added some silver paint to his soundwave on the face where it was raised up and itseems to match the faceplate variant So I am sure it is paint like people suggested
And that the pic show the mouthplate to be seamlessly molded to the head's cheeks, whereas the silver-painted one does have noticeable seams between the silver paint and the blue plastic cheeks.

I think it being hilarious is more reason to buy it.

because it is a variant on paint, not on a new molding, or hasbro is weirder than we thought,

The guy who found the toy confirmed that it was molding, not paint. And posted more comparison pics of it with the normal full-visored version.GalvatronG1 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:You can see in the pic that the blue-mouthplated one is MOSC.

true he did report that, but I am weird and would of bought it and disassembled the head to check to get undeniable proof outside of photos MOSC, but that's just me. If it is a new mold, it seems weird to make a new tooling for what could be done in paint. also has that been seen anywhere else, because i ordered one on amazon and i am curious if i get the full visor one, I like that look more,Sabrblade wrote:The guy who found the toy confirmed that it was molding, not paint.

Menasor is easier to swap around as he fits the "traditional" combiner scheme. Unfortunately, you can only swap the arms with Ultra Bee due to how Ultra Bee comes together. You can attach the pants of Crash Combiners, but I would recommend using Sideswipe and Strongarm; jet guy's tail fins get in the way a bit. Also, the torsos can't attach to Menasor's boots because of the leg connection. The swapping gimmick will probably gain traction once more sets are released.

Also, what is up with that packaging art? Optimus is extremely angry while Bee's got his flirt on.

Upon closer inspection, he looks a little more TF: Prime-ish to me.Kurona wrote:The Optimus seems a little closer to his movieverse self too.

I was going to say Bee looks like he's tired but pretending to be interested, but that works too. (I make that same face when I am sleepy and trying to listen to an instructor I am sure)

I studied Prime pretty hard, and he just looks like an amalgam of various OPs.
I got some serious nostalgic vibes and really wanted to want one, but they didn't quite do it for me and I was afraid they may not fit my wrist. Maybe they'll release a few more characters.
If Playmates follows suite with Voltron...
