New Transformers Rescue Bots Academy Hot Shot Listed On Hasbro Shop

The new mold of Rescue Bots Chase, released now under Rescue Bots Academy, has been found in both the US and Canada. In Canada, he was found at a Toysrus in Montreal for $15 while in the US he was found at a Walgreens in North Carolina for $14. This is a new mold for Chase the Police Bot as he is now a drag racer. I actually purchased this for my two year old and thus I have some more pictures for you.

The size is similar to a deluxe, the same size of other Rescue Bots its size in the previous line before the rebranding. While he turns into a Drag Racer rather than a police car, and thus less show accurate, I can attest that my kid did not care. This new mold actually fixes a lot of design aspects from the original. The robot mode looks better as it is more proportionate and defined rather than just look like the alt mode parts slightly more apart from each other. Also, the original's transformation mechanism broke up the blue of the alt mode but here it's all concealed within the toy. So both modes look great. I really like the headsculpt where he has a nice police cap. The transformation is as simple as ever,very quick and effective, recreating the rapidity seen onscreen. All you have to do is flip down the spoiler and it's done. Here are images below compared to previous Rescut Bot toys and other one steps.

Also, 15$CAN? Based on the US price, is that on sale or is this a new low price for this line?

It's the price it's been for this class for the past 4 years or so. It just didnt go up when other toys did. I guess because its part of a different section.

Is this new? I thought we'd seen chases a dragster before? Or is this just taking a long time to get out

Taking a long time to get out

Maybe the you-know-what didn't help.

Sweet. My five year old son has kind of aged out of Rescue Bots - he's moved on to some Cyberverse and WFC Trilogy. I hate seeing the larger Rescue Bots - they should all be Rescan sized!

Nice toy
From some angles,he seems upset.

Rescue Bots is now the longest running show in Transformers history and it is now a mainstay in both preschool programming and preschool toys. However, it's been a while since there was a major restock of new product in the line and Hasbro is going to answer the demand soon. They are rereleasing all their dinosaur related rescue Bot toys under a subline with new decos. The line is called Transformers Rescue Bots: Dinobot Adventures and it coincides with the Dinobot centric line and movie coming from Cyberverse. Below you will find images for Rescan 3-Pack: Predaking, Grimlock, and Snarl, Dinobot Optimus Prime 2-Pack, Dinobot Bumblebee 2-Pack, and the Optimus Prime T-Rex.

The photos were found by the TFW2005 fansite.

Nice to see Predaking again,I wonder if what his backstory will be.

Day 528 of waiting for Transformers Armada Masterpiece news.

He was last seen on good terms with the Autobots back in Predacons Rising.

I really like that this continue the trend of the Rescue Bots coexisting with the Prime/RID characters.

These TF:RB toys are far cooler looking than the Cyberverse gimmick lines that're also aimed for the younger audience.
