The Hasbro panel showed a few upcoming Robots in Disguise toys and we got the 3D renders for the Warrior class figures, the big Power Surge Optimus and the Platinum set. However, there was a ton of new stuff on the show room, giving us an idea at the vast amount of products coming out this year. This vast amount makes sense since the Investors Presentation made us aware that 70% of the Transformers toy market is dominated by Rescue Bots and Robots in Disguise (with Generations only making up 30%).

Here is a list of everything else that was revealed only through the display area:

One Step Changer Bisk

Transformers News: Toy Fair 2016 List of New Transformers Robots In Disguise Revealed on Display #HasbroToyFair #TFNY

One Step Blizzard Strike Sideswipe

One-Step Changers/Advanced Optimus Prime

One-Step Changers/Advanced Strongarm

Legion Groundbuster

Legion Blizzard Strike Drift

Battle 2-pack Sideswipe with Minicon WindStrike
Battle 2-pack Strongarm with Minicon Sawtooth

Powersurge Heros Bumblebee with Minicon Buzzstrike
Powersurge Heros Sideswipe with Minicon Windstrike

Minicon 4 pack with Autobot Dragonus, Bash Breaker, Lord Doomitron, and Lancelon
3 step Energon Boost Bumblebee (with all-spark blue) and 3 step Drift (regular colours)

There is also a Warrior Grimlock rerelease which has a box with a new playability feature highlighted involving the weapon minicons.

And a slew of minicons, many of which can become weapons, such as Tricerashot, Lord Doomitron, Weapon Slipstream and Bashbreaker.

Why is Groundpounder's toy named "Groundbuster"?

I wonder why certainly would have nothing to do with copyright at all now would it?

Why would the show give him a name that Hasbro, the company that created and owns the character, can't Trademark?

Who knows?

I'm not a wizard I can't pretend to know what Hasbro is up to I'm just guessing.

The show runners not knowing if the name was available for toys, hasbro not caring enough to notify them, no plans to make a toy at the time so nobody thought it would be a problem, take your pick.

Hasbro has a history of making sure that their cartoons have used names that they can use. For them to not do so would make them look bad.

OK, So I love that new prime. I want it. and the warrior version seems to have tried to solve the enclosed fist issue by putting that blockage on the shoulders.

Bisk, Scorponok, Groundpounder, Windblade are all buys. Yes.

I want minicons so much right now.

Wait wait, so Hasbro saying we'd get an MP Sideswipe but not giving us one was fine, them never giving us the voyager Prime Breakdown (which they designed) is totally cool, and them green lighting all those Michael bay films is no problem, all the piss poor platinums being released this year are totally firgiveable, BUT it's this that makes them look bad, THIS!?!?!?!

The Blizzard Strike OP already has fixed fists and they didn't put something on his shoulders.
I'm definitely waiting for the Warrior version of Bisk and the new weapon Mini-Cons are really cool. I want that black version of Lord Doomitron so bad.

No, I did not. If your main argument is that Hasbro is afraid of looking bad then I feel that isnt much of an argument seeing as how they havent been afraid in the past. Disney made a legal mistake for the avengers blu ray boxset, Hasbro's legal department is not impervious to mistakes either.

Good question. I think it was in the YouTube video from the show floor posted here.

Edit: No, forget that. I muddled something from a review.

I read on the Hasbro press release for Toy Fair that the 6 mini-con battlepacks we've seen are all they are going to release.

No Steeljaw in almost cyberverse commander size.

Well look at that. I may need to find another warrior with the fix now. Maybe that Power Surge one, but that larger one looks cooler...
