New Transformers: Rescue Bots Product Images

Chase as a Stegasaurus is awesome!

Also, props to Hasbro for doing something new with Bumblebee. Seems like Rescue Bots is becoming a playground for Hasbro to do new things like make BB into a bike and make OP into a dino, and I'm all for introducing some new ideas like that.

Fireboat Heatwave looks cool.

Motorcycle Bumblebee is a neat idea.

Monster truck Optimus Prime = awesome.

Brachiosaurus Heatwave!!! But... I don't think it can transform... can it?

Stego-Chase = LOL.

Optimus Primal, ROAR to the Rescue!

And, surprisingly, those 22 inch nontransforming Optimus and Heatwave figures actually look quite appealing. Especially with their interactive playability with the human figures. I may very well pick those up too.

It cannot. Does come with light and sounds, and the head swooping action, though!

Poo. Is he the only nontransforming dino Rescue Bot? That would suck.

These are so freaking cool.. I cannot wait to see more shots of the actual toys

I collect these to a point and have bought several from my Autistic son... he LOVES them!!!

My only gripe... The humans...they went from really cool Action Figures to BLEH INACTION figures!!

The big man himself Seibertron stopped by his local Toys "R" Us this evening in Schaumburg, Illinois, and was pleasantly surprised to find the new Rescue Bots "Roar and Rescue" Optimus Primal, Heatwave, and Blades figures! These three characters, based on the same characters from the popular Transformers: Rescue Bots cartoon, are dinosaur-themed, with Optimus Prime Primal taking a surprise twist and transforming into a mechanical Tyrannosaurus rex (with a robot mode not unlike Beast Wars Megatron!), Heatwave transforming into an Apatosaurus, and Blades into a Pteranodon. Check out the visual evidence below, then, if you're into these guys, begin the hunt!

I bought Heatwave and Blades yesterday; they are great little figs for the price point.
Primal, I will wait on a bit until i see a good sale on him; although he does look pretty awesome.

Nope, this is the most up to date listing of them all I have access to right now.

A while back we reported some initial Transformers Rescue Bots figures showing up at US retail. Thanks to Seibertron.com member zatara1701, we can now report new sighting of new figures from the same line, from a Toys'R'Us store in Humble, Texas! Check out below the two (adorable) dino versions of a T-Rex Optimus Prime and a Raptor Bumblebee, along with some out-of-package images and comparison shots.

Morbot's a tad smaller than it should be, though he didn't shrink as bad as Trex.

But on the plus side, we get Dani, a jettish Blades, and a Bee with 2 hands instead of that screwdriver!

Well, I'm finally going to army-build with preschool toys. I knew this day would come, just not when.
