We have some news concerning new Transformers Rescue Bots figures, courtesy of online retailer Entertainment Earth, via site staff ScottyP and Seibertron himself. The listings show the first wave of the Flip Racers line, the Launchers from the same, and the fourth wave of Epic Figures (much like the static Titans of a couple of years back). Characters include Bumblebee, Boulder, Salvage, Quickshadow, and Blades, and are scheduled to arrive in February. Check them out below!

They really are just Bot Shots aren't they? They're not even hiding it now with the launchers. Not that there's anything wrong with that, those were fun figures.

The word 'shot' is probably too violent for Rescue Bots. But yeah, it's the exact same concept.

A more show-accurate Quickshadow!?! Got a friend who needs that for his daughters.
And customizers who insist on giving every fembot a boob-where possible, please remember that this is a preschool line...
...therefore plenty will turn up on the secondary market with the chest door broken off, making it worth the wait for the dirt cheap price.
Also, turning Blades into a little Indy car gives him a striking resemblance to Leadfoot, my favorite PCC!

Blades appears to be in his Jet mode the cockpit and wings are visible on the toy.
TFW2005 just posted tweet with an image of a Combiner for Combiner Force in art form at least on a card standee backing in a store.
It has Strongarm as a right arm , Sideswipe as the left Bumblebee as the chest and Grimlock as the legs - Grimlock is obviously much larger.
I wonder what size the toy version will be ?

Yes indeed - he's quite similar to the Botshots Powerglide and Jetfire.
I hope they get the pricing right on these as those Dinosaur ones were a total mess in the UK if you could find them at all they were twice the american dollar price in a $-£ swap so like $4.00 in USA and £8.00 in the UK - no wonder no one bought them - I was really irked by the 26 missing paint applications on Blades too compared to his packet.
The sad thing is they could have been a really fun size to go with if they'd kept the larger size as it was. but they got a bit greedy - I guess the smaller more or less Deluxe Rescue Bots have their uses though.
But i'll get these so long as Hasbro isn't delusional with the pricing or the stores have a good offer on them.
As when I see a shop selling an RID 3 step for £27 my first thought is to laugh in their face.

Do you smell that, Seibertronians? It's the distinct smell of New York Toy fair, and that always means we see some new products revealed in the days proceeding it. Today we've got another (particularly cute) example of that rule, coming from the Portugal Hasbro website:
Transformers Collectable Edition Playskool Friends! Here's some project shots and official description that also mentions the characters included in the set, one of which, strangely enough, is Arcee.
As mentioned above, these are only listed so far on the Hasbro Portugal site, so world-wide release is not guaranteed, but is probable. Revel in the cuteness in the comments below!

The little ones will learn about teamwork and unleash their imagination with these 7 cute little autobots!
Includes: Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Arcee, Heatwave, Chase, Blades and Boulder.

Fellow Seibertronian Tigertrack has spotted over on ToysRUs.com the new Transformers: Rescue Bots figures that we reported on back here - though only Fireplug and Swift seem to have made it into the listings for now! Check out the cheetah-bot and dalmatian additions to the Griffin Rock team below, and make sure to use the Valentine's Day sale while you're at it too!
Robots and humans saving the day, working together the Rescue Bots way! Little heroes can imagine going on daring missions with one of their favorite Rescue Mini-Con friends. Sized right for little hands, the Swift the Cheetah-Bot figure converts from cheetah mode to drill mode. For more fun, attach the drill to a Bumblebee figure. (Bumblebee figure sold separately. Subject to availability). The day is saved thanks to the Rescue Bots and great teamwork!
The Playskool Heroes Transformers Rescue Bots Swift the Cheetah-Bot Features:
Easy 2 Do conversion
From cheetah mode to drill mode
Drill can be attached to Bumblebee figure (Bumblebee figure sold separately. Subject to availability)

Well that Swift Cheetah mode looks much better than Titans Stripes... but odd alt-mode.

I think it's a Jackhammer. (Even if they have labelled it a drill)

I think they mean like a Power Drill.
To be honest, the hex-head on it makes me think "Lug Wrench" like for putting tires on a racecar. Which makes me wonder if he wasn't intended as part of the racing themes, explaining the Cheetah. But that's circumstancial happenstance,

Had he gotten to appear in the show, I could imagine Swift's altmode being repurposed for use as a Collision Foam Cannon.Flashwave wrote:RAR wrote:Carnivius_Prime wrote:Well that Swift Cheetah mode looks much better than Titans Stripes... but odd alt-mode.

Is the head hex shaped I thought it was flat head screw driver shaped and that was why I said it reminded me of a Jackhammer.
But if it is hex shaped yes it would look rather wheel-gun like.
I hope they release the whole lot of them in the UK at once as we never got the others here.
