It has been a long time we didnt get new toy reveals through the Robots in Disguise App. It seems it is making up for lost time sinc we finally have our first look at not just 1, or 2, but 3 combiners:
Ultra Bee, Menasor and (hold onto your buts) Galvatronus!

There are also new Combiners/Activators: Soundwave & Torpedo Laserbeak (which we have already seen in toy form) and Optimus Prime & High Test.

We also finally see Dragbreak (which looks pretty much as you would expect), as well as Lunar Force Primestrong and Shocknado, which both appear to be redecos.

Let us know what you think of the designs. Remember that the combiners have been found to be at the 30$-35$ price point so that may explain why they look like simplified transforming toys with no individual robot modes, more along the power rangers zord concept.

Hopefulyl we will get a better look at these this coming saturday at the 2017 New York Toy Fair.

So, Galvatronus could be Cyclonus's endgame, using his mind control powers to not only manipulate the Council, but to also make himself a combiner. My theory, at least.

Though, look closely at Galvatronus's arms. Don't they look kinda like blue-colored Vehicons?

Wouldnt be the first time they reuse that character model in this show.

This news certainly has me wondering how these toys will work. The torsos on the bigger Combiners, and the fact that they have crash in their name, lead me to believe they will be closer to the two bot Combiners we've already seen with a similar gimmick. But I'm wondering how those arms will work. Any speculation?

Maybe mildly disappointed that they are not more in line with Warrior toys, but I was also pleasantly satisfied with Primestrong. The gimmick reminds me of the old days.

Hope they show these this weekend.

Plenty. I smell Powr Core Combienrs all over. So it would be a car and when you plug it, it turns into an arm. Or you hae to do a simple transformation into an arm, like power ranger zords.

I am sure kids will love this.

Oh! PCC. I could see that. Maybe that style of combining would offer up a little more articulation.

So it's interesting to not that the Activator Combiner Bumblebee has the Stealthforce mode and the 3 step seems to be stuck in that mode and doesn't even have the ability to fold up into a proper car at all. just as Optimus' new 3 step can not fold it's guns away.

So it seem the Activator Combiner Optimus is very like the 3-step just like is the case with Bumblebee too where the 3-step and Activator combiner are also very similar.

I'd wish they'd done a few more new moulds before starting on the crash combiner repaints though. I'd not minded a Decepticon repaint at all but just a random colour change - I hope will at least reference something in the story to have an excuse to exist.

If there is automorphing, then you usually get less articulation. The PCC toys had no articulation :( (and neither do Power Ranger zords)

Some zords and megazords of the past have had some kind of articulation.

Wait, why would we hold on to our 'buts'? But I like the word 'but' even though there's nothing to hold on to, as 'but' is a conjunction, not a physical object like a cigarette butt.

True, true. I was thinking of shoulder articulation mostly. These could be really good or really not. Only time can tell.

I agree too though that, "The kids will love'em". Oh the kids. :D

The mechanims in the PCC drones did inhibit motion and so cause a lack of functional elbows but they had fully mobile shoulders and some had opening hands. you can certainly pose them a lot they have waists, usually pretty mobile heads, knees, decent enough hips and so on.

I would be shocked if the $35.00 Combiners are that well jointed. I'm sure they will be an interesting talking point though.

I say so because of the fan-created part - of the many things fans chose for Victorion (like her gender, faction, component vehicles etc.) was what her rival should be. And - while this has unfortunately barely shown up in fiction at all yet - the fans chose Galvatronus to be her rival.

Ya. They did have knees, and the ports as articulation worked pretty well. I know PCC was not well loved, but I think they are pretty neat toys. Toys being the key word.

I'm doubting these RID Combos will have knees.

I hope they don't go all PCC, i can't remember if that pic we saw of Grimlock half transformed that would form the bottom half of the Bee Combiner has just two modes....his dinosaur & Bee's Combiner legs or if he has a robot mode :-?

If it's just the two....then it'll prob be all PCC like

I see Grimlock's beast mode head, neck, torso, and arms. Looks like his tail disappears where the combiner feet are.

So it looks like we're getting 2 different sizes of Cyclonus then! one Legion & one larger that forms the torso of the combiner

it can't & it won't! but wouldn't it be funny if the legion Cyclonus could form one of the limbs of Galvatronus

The in-game models don't seem to look much like the images on the left side of each picture (which look more like in-show models). The Soundwave on the left, for instance, has a face much more reminiscent of his G1 look than the more Prime-esque look on the in-game model.

More importantly, take a look at the highlighted images on the left for Shocknado and Galvatronus. Shocknado looks much more like G1 Galvatron, while Galvatronus looks more like G1 Cyclonus, or at least an amalgam of Cyclonus and Galvatron.

Pretty sure the left side ones are from the toys' packaging art.

Lunar Force Combiner? Sounds like an exclusive line of redecos. Target maybe? Or perhaps Walmart finally gets a shot :lol:

Shocknado looks like a redeco of Skyhammer, and a Decepticon one at that. Shockwave/Shockblast and Tornado is what I'll be guessing for the names.

Dragbreak... Guess I was wrong, it is a single pack, with Drag Strip/Dragstar and Wildbreak. What are the odds of seeing the other two?

Hi-Test is partnered with Combiner Optimus Prime, guess that comes close to a "Hi-Q" reference.

We already know about Activator Combiner Soundwave, but why is Laserbeak classified as a Torpedo and not as an Activator?

Galvatronus should indeed be Cyclonus... but what intrigues me is that he seems to have 5 members instead of the predicted 4 for the rest. Also, each limb has a different accent color. The arms are indeed Air/Jet Vehicons, so the legs must be another type.

I wonder how the legs work on Menasor. And "Ultrabee"... *groans* Bumblebee's inability to come up with something cool strikes again :lol:

It's nice to see some rotation in a One-step you don't often get that.

It looks like the knees up are on a hinge system so the chest is the nose of the car and I like the elbows he has - it seems he spins at the knees.

But I really would prefer some more Decepticons - heck they could do a much better job with Thunderhoof - or at least repaint him a bit.

They never made a Megatronus One step so that would be worth doing as would Starscream.

I think that Shark one would work really well as a one-step too.

------

P.S.

This is now 5 One-step RID Bumblebee (2 Scissor,2 butterfly, and an unfold type).
4 Sideswipe (2 butterfly, one sort of Scissor and a rotate and chest pop type)
3 Optimus Prime (Flipchanger ish one, one which is mainly just moving his hands and standing it up, and an unfold like one) I would have expected one be made in white but they've not done that yet surprisingly.

2 Drift (One scissor and one butterfly)

------

So I'll say what I usually do - make more Decepticons and make Jazz.
Also why not make Rescue Bots onesteps in with the RID line ?


Which Sideswipe featured the rotation? Also Blurr and the newer Sideswipe are part of the Combiner Force Wave 2 One-Step Changers. Bee, Drift, and Prime are wave one.

The first is the switchblade type, the second is the car jack type, and it's the third that has the rotation. Twist the back spoiler and the whole body from the knees up twists along.

Part of me wanted to believe in the possibility of CW-compatible RID styled Stunticons (and thus a non-terrible Menasor torso be available) but it looks like they're going for both the legs being formed from one robot. And on top of that, even if by some miracle they were CW compatible, they'd be even flimsier than CW toys. :(

Argh. Being a combiner fan who doesn't like CW sucks. I just want good CHUG scaled combiners, damnit!

There has been another update on the official Transformers Instagram account, and a story was posted showing off the upcoming Robots in Disguise Combiner Force Twinferno figure! The story was taken down, and then put up again, and we were able to capture the images shown below: a grey prototype of the robot mode, and a full colour alt mode shot, plus some feature shots. Check them out mirrored below, and expect more this weekend with Toy Fair!

Sure, but they had to use "pirate" in order to trademark it. Hasbro doesn't like to do that so they'll certainly just make something up that's easy to own.

Copyright and trademark rules are different in the US, hence them changing his name in the first place and not using it on any other figures. Comic books don't need to copyright the names as long as it isn't being used to sell a product directly which is why the IDW comics don't have to change the names of every character that Hasbro has to rename on the figures.

I might suggest there is a pretty good argument to be made to adopt the name Tornado (or a compound version of it) as the characters default name.

But then I kinda like characters having multiple names even if it's seen as an error of sorts some time it kind of adds an extra layer to the characters if they sometimes change their names (Like Trailcutter/Trailbreaker, Outback/Fallback or Galvatron/Megatron).

I'm not so keen when names get re-used in the same continuity though such as with Tracer or Sky High.

I don't think Windrazor Tornado works ideally though name wise as a single name Tornado-Razor perhaps ?.

But then the name use issue is also an issue with RID a it does cause some headaches about Grimlock and Sideswipe (for example) in that line.
