It was super hard to leave without the Grimlock or Bee minicon pack. I did however take a Clampdown home with me.Cobotron wrote:That would have been an expensive trip to TRU for me.
Did you folks happen to notice who was holding up those figures in the pictures.

Umm... no, maybe I'm just not getting the question - if it's a joke, I'm a little preoccupied enjoying Onslaught and Sky Awesome

He is a surprisingly expressive lil feller with his movable eyes and mouth. I'd love to see a warrior version of him.

A Warrior class would be cool, but I don't realy need one when I have the Legion version. When they make a Warrior class version for him it's likely to be more show accurate in vehicle mode, but I prefer this one. Same thing with Springload. If they make a Warrior class for him, the robot mode will be much better, but I didn't like his vehicle mode in the show. The one-step vehicle mode looks awesome.

It's been a minute since we shared with you the in-hand images and video review of Robots in Disguise Battle Pack Grimlock vs Decepticon Back and Bumblebee vs Major Mayhem. Yours truly has spotted both today at the Toys R Us in Baton Rouge, LA. It must have been a banner restock day at Toys R Us, because legion Clampdown, Drift, Thunderhoof and Windblade were also hanging on pegs. Check out the freshly minted in-store photos below. When you're done with those, refresh your memory with the rest of Robots in Disguise line in our extensive galleries, here.

The top looks like a remold of the Deluxe class version and the lower one like a new bigger one with a gimmick. I think when you plug in the Chestmaster, the wings and the shoulder guns unfold and maybe some lights and sounds are activated.

That would be great. I would be absolutely satisfied with that if we don't get a Nova Prime out of Titans Return or Titan Wars.

It kinda looks like that which would explain the alternate deco at the very least it looks like this one has better feet.
How the heck does Scorponok stand?

Unless stated by hasbro, I'm going with definitely not.

Warrior Class Windblade looks waay better than that tacky Legion one! i'm impressed
& aye Scorpy looks ok, i still can't get the Bayformer one out of my head when i look at his scorpion mode though
& Optimus......with blades! Optimus......with........blades!

Then it has a lot of the same kind of molding including the sword which is also eerily similar with the Sword and it's sheath design invoking a lot of the same visuals as the Generations mold.

That was one of the few good things about that mold. I hope I'm wrong and it's just the photography making her look like she has no wrists, but if they DID nix the articulation then that's pretty sh!tty.
She never had ball-jointed wrists, but you can see here:
She does indeed have no wrist articulation, but I don't think that she is a remold of the gen figure however

That looks like an all new mold to me and my Windblade doesn't have ball jointed wrists. They are mushroom pegged.
Also good to see that Hasbro is using the Battle Grimlock mold which I just got.

Don't worry, I can't almost guarantee you that you got it for much cheaper, and with a better paint job, in all likelihood, than whatever this 'Platinum' set will cost

Like paint is the all most important thing ever.
You never disappoint me fandom (except for when you do which is all the time)
Could be bias since I like everything always have which could also mean I have no opinion.

It really doesnt look like a retool to me. It looks like a totally new mold which has a similar design. The transformation is bound to be different. Also, I have no clue which ball jointed wrists you are speaking of. Feel free to provide a picture so that we better understand what you are getting at.

Oh yeah, I am pretty sure no one is regretting getting their takara grimlock even after seeing this news. Takara's deco is show accurate and you can buy it by itself, sounds like a win in my book.
