I just checked if anyone had reported it to us before and it turns out the previous sighting we got a hint of was Hong Kong. If someone did find it in north america before, they didnt tell us.

That's Cheetimus Primal's handiwork - http://www.cheetimus.com/2014/12/rid-steeljaw.html

I bought one (Fixit) in Walmart in Laval, Québec. It's a fine little figure. Probably my favorite from the RID line so far.

I found Fixit in Des Moines Iowa last night while looking for wave three of CW. he's a fun little dude. his sticker is crooked thought

It may be the only legion I will buy full price just to be sure having it.

Also, this is "my" local store. Did they bother cleaning out the TF section and have more new things? Because lately, it's pretty sad.

Only the RID Legions are new there. That store is where the pictures above come from.

Cheetimus is one of the best customisers available.That is not saying you are not great,because you are great.

If you noticed,Steeljaw's toys are blue in colour,whereas his show model is grey in colour.
Speaking of Steeljaw,Phantomjaw looks weird.

The credit goes not to me,but to Cheetimus.I merely used his photos in my post.

Thanks to fellow Seibertron staffer, xRotorstormx, we've been linked to Autobase Aichi and their tweet sharing the first news of a transforming role play version of the Decepticon Hunter weapon/tool from Robots In Disguise!

The Decepticon Hunter features a pop up functioning missile launcher with four plastic missiles and seems to take some cues from Cade's Knight's Temenos sword blaster from Age Of Extinction. We don't currently have a price or a release date, but it's assumed it should be relatively soon, and definitely before the end of the year. (We'll keep you updated.)







Keep your optics tuned to Seibertron.com for the latest in news and updates, plus the best galleries around!

Should've made one of these for AOE.

Neat, they're releasing SDCC Chromias sword as a stand alone toy.

Woah, the thing is a sword AND a gun. That's pretty intimidating.

I wonder how effective it would be to use the thing in a convenience store hold-up?

Remind you of something?

Oh, that's what i call a missed opportunity here.

good concept lazy execution. but i agree with everyone else hasbro should've done one for AoE, missed opportunity there hasbro.

Has anyone seen either the new one step redecos in store yet? like the Ninja Sideswipe and night ops bumblebee?

The last we saw of the upcoming Robots in Disguise Minicons was in the promotional image for Mega Optimus Prime where it was shown how they can interact with that figure. Now we have some nice new stock images of these Minicons along with images of their individual packaging. These also show the minicons with their clear plastic gear attached, which was previously seen here. It is to be noted that this extra gear can be combined among the figures to create a bonus non transforming figure. There is no picture of this combined figure yet.

These images come from the online Brazilian retailer Hobby Brinquedos and feature:

Beastbox
Divebomb
Dragonus
Ratbat
Sandsting
Sawback
Slipstream
and Velocirazor

Well that was interesting.

These look so awesome. I love me some little energon critters.

It dawned on me, they're totally going for a Beyblade thing aren't they?

I'm gonna guess $9.99. I know your up Nort, so same as a Legends, but thats just a guess. I hope they're a little cheaper.

I think it's more like bacugan due to the one step transformation from a basic geometric shape.


And they will retail for 4.99$ us each.

Or indeed the redesigned casseticons from Fall of Cybertron:

They had said before that the Energon animals were an unadvertised feature so we'll probably have to wait for one of us to buy them all and figure it out I guess.

Do you have a quote? Because those animals were shown at the toyfair during the presentation.

Sandsting? Why not Scorponok!

Scorpinok could be a future main character perhaps.

I'd love that, particularly if they made his head somewhere between BY and G1 Scorponok.

Unfortunately they weren't shown there either. They told us about that feature on the show floor and laughed about how they forgot to really bring that up anywhere else

Thanks Scotty, I thought they were shown based on the written presentation feed, my mistake. I know you and Ryan were laughing while saying that they will probably not be in the instructions either. Do you guys think that will actually be the case?

Wouldn't surprise me, I think they view it as more of an Easter Egg than an actual selling point.

Too bad, I love this kind of stuff and if hardcore collectors knew of this it might encourage them to get them all for the extra figure. Akin to the Marvel build a figure waves which I know Jon thought should be implemented in the Transformers line.

It'd be neat if they could do an actual transforming Collect-and-build figure.

These guys do look really cool. I'm diggin the little squirts! I may not get any of them, or even just get one for the heck of it since they're expected to be cheap, but they are really cool! The combined energon figure is a nice touch too.

I guess it's that time of year where we get all the minicon news. Following yesterday's pictures, we now have a few more showing for the first time how the main Deployer figure (in this case Drift) can use the clear weapons reserved for the minicon. We also see how the minicon can plug into the deployer while still wearing the clear gear. This also gives us a great comparison to the Warrior Drift figure. The photos were found on autobase aichi's blog site Snakas.

Deployers Drift has a nice headsculpt.

I'm cautiously excited about these...

I'm digging Drift's new look

NuclearConvoy wrote:Deployers Drift has a nice headsculpt.

Pleeeaase edit your quotes everyone. It sucks to have to scroll through and see a multi-picture news story quoted, especially when its followed by a one sentence response.

Hot off the heels of the Drift Deployer reported earlier today Autobase Aichi isn't done with us yet, for now they bring us Transformers Robots in Disguise: Deployer Fracture and AirRazor! The figure is shown in both modes and with his Minicon all bling'd up in additional (and fashionable) clear plastic. We also get to see a comparison with the 1-Step Fracture, but unfortunately only in alt mode. See the pics below, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com: home for the best Galleries and Conversation around!

Anybody getting the idea that the Deployers are meant to be their Cybertronian forms?

I forget, is Fracture an earth motorcycle in the show? I thought he was a hover bike.

S'kinda what I figured after seeing those two bikes together

shajaki wrote:

Is it just me or does this alt mode look like the Ride Chasers from the Mega Man X games? I learned their names just now.

It's sad that I just want to yank off the deployer gimmick and have a deluxe Fracture.

Can't wait to get Sawback here, so Strongarm can have a Con sniffin' K9 buddy.

I find it interesting that Drift comes with Jetstorm when Slipstream is the better student of the two.

Well, neither Drift nor Fracture scanned an Earth altmode in the show, so their being in their Cybertronian forms would fit.

Yes, he is a hoverbike.
