These give us an up close look at the new minicons and the clear armour bits they come with. It is interesting to note that these clear plastic pieces are packaged in a way that imitates the minicon's fraction symbol. The ones shaped as disks are for Drift while the ones shapes like arrow heads (torpedos) are for Fracture.
Scott notes the following regarding what he saw at the show:
Cool bit about the Minicons - each sprue has a piece on it that can be combined with pieces from other Minicons, and if you buy the whole wave of them you can make a new bot out of said pieces. Pretty neat concept! The transformations also really remind me of the data discs from FoC, just not automatic/spring-loaded like those.
These minicons include:
Akita Wolf



BeastBox



Buzzsaw



Dragon



Fracture

Jetstorm

Ratbat



Scorpion



Slipstream



Sliver



Deployers


















Hyperchange Steeljaw



Mega Optimus Prime



Super Bumblebee


Warrior Class figures






One Step






Legion Class Figures

Sideswipe still looks cool, but something about Jazz just doesn't feel right. I'll probably still get him because, screw it, it's fucking Jazz.

The Mini-Cons are a bit of a lot of things: the Data Discs, the Construct-Bot dinosaurs, even a bit of BMOG. I wonder if there's a specific bot you make after getting them all, or if it's just an open-ended make whatever.

Lastly, I thought Jazz looked weird too, and then I realized he had eyes.
That Sideswipe looks awesome though!

These in my opinion fill a collecting niche that the Construct-bots Dinobot Riders and before that Botshots filled. Something inexpensive to waste my money onAny pricing on them yet? They look cute, but they'll certainly cost enough that I'll hesitate to buy them. It's also neat that the transparent armor pieces will combine into their own robot.
4.99$ each packed individually, all the pricing can be found here. I actually think its a fair price since its half a data disk set for half the price.

I hope it gets a Warrior class figure, because I like this design best out of the new Decepticons revealed so far.

More than hunderoof? I hope that guys gets a warrior treatment and that when the time comes, the rake transforms into his antlers instead of being replaced by them.

Did you not see that Ultra Magnus? Nothing else matters, all these toys can suck it.

You are right. Everything besides CW is meh.

As for the rest of the Robots in Disguise line, I'm still trying to figure out what all the different figure types are. I get the impression Hasbro are falling back into the habit of over-saturating their own brand with numerous play options. I feel like I'm going to have to buy them all before I can figure out which one I actually want.

It's not as new as you think: FoC Soundwave and Blaster have the same gimmick, especially with the Mini-Cons being more like their little buddies.

What is the bigger non minicon toy's name? is it Fracture or Airazor?
How big is the non minicon toy? Deluxe class or Voyager Class?
What is HasTak calling the vechicle mode for the bigger non minicon toy? Please don't say deployer as that's the gimmick.
Fracture, Voyager Class, hover bike.
