Transformers: Robots in Disguise Combiner Force Dragbreak and Shocknado at US Retail

Want to rep your favorite robots this upcoming school year? Well, Toys R Us has you covered there, too, because a good deal on TLK toys was not all that catalog had to offer. No, in addition, we also got a look at two new pieces of Transformers merchandise: A Backpack featuring artwork from Transformers Robots in Disguise, plus a new silver Autobot symbol lunch bag to go with it! Rock these threads and then rock the forums threads down below by letting us know if you see these at TRU or anywhere else in the coming weeks, and definitely tell us if you plan to be the coolest kid in school and pick these up.

The Combiner Force Menasor figure from Robots in Disguise is now up for sale on Amazon. It is coming out in 3 days fellow Seibertronian Scotty P telling us the one he just ordered from them should arrive by next Wednesday. It is Amazon itself selling the toy (not a marketplace seller) for $29.99 and eligible for Prime shipping.

that is a juicy spoiler! And fruity! (potentially)

That generations Bumblebee on that lunchbag looks really up to no good with that expression. I don't trust him at all. Nope nope.

The first thing I thing I thought of when I saw this was that Filthy Frank video where the bald guy shouts "FRUIT SNACK! FRUIT SNACK!"

I think the really important take away from this bit of news, other than a tasty fruit blaster fun snack
for lunch on the go is..................





MEGATRON?!?!?!?!?!?!

Somebody's got to bite the bullet fruit snack and give us a review of them.

I work at a Harris Teeter grocery store in North Carolina. They've had those RID fruit snacks for about 2 years now...maybe 3 years. They cost like $.97 with your VIC card. They taste just like every other fruit snack. I buy them every once in awhile just for a treat...

When it comes to Thermidor, this review, and images found within, will mostly be comparing him to Bisk. I'd love to review the toy as new but in reality he is similar to Bisk in every way aside from the head and deco. For those who do not own this mold, it is simply perfect. The alt mose is original, the robot mode has great personality with alt mode integration. It's a fun transformation that is not at all bothersome and both intuitive and creative. The real difference here is the deco and the head. The head has very features, he actually has pupils for a change.












The deco for the eyes works rather well. The paint may be sloppy depending on your copy, especially in the lower mandibles. The amount of paint apps between both is almost the same but Thermidore wins out with having his whole abdominal area painted silver while Bisk's is left unpainted. Also, I always appreciate when the rims are painted which is the case here so no need to wait for the Takara version here (not that it would happen).













I recomend this toy to any fan of the Bisk mold and to those who have not experienced this mold yet, as well to those who want a nice representation of the character found in the show. I am happy with my purchase and there isn't much more I could ask for.

Heh, Thermidor is to Bisk what Cryotek was to Transmetal 2 Megatron.
