Official Images of Robots in Disguise Legion Class Fixit and Underbite

DARN! I just picked up flippy step fix-it. Legion would be better suited next to the warrior class figures. Oh well, One step is still kinda fun. First one Ive ever picked up. It's neat and cute how the mechanism works. It's funny, the paint apps on the legion look nicer.

Aaaaand we're waiting for this Fixit.

Smart move.

This is the second figure that will be released for both of these characters who were only available as one step figures so far. The website states that these will be shipping in April. Mirrored images can be found below.

*sigh* We're never getting a big Underbite, are we? It's Prime Insecticons all over again.

It's a shame because I all the Decepticons thus far, but do far only Steeljaw is getting the Warrior treatment.

i still dont see why we need one steps when we have legions, they are easy to transform but still look amazing & have playability. Im not a fan of RiD but the legions have looked pretty damn good so far and the few ive picked up have been great. I say hasbro should scrap the one steps & put that money into making the remaining lines better.

Agreed. More Cyberverse PLEASE!

I hate to say it but those legion figures don't look good, especially compared to the one-step changers. Both look to have weak vehicle modes that aren't going to be stable at all.

I was just Transforming my Warrior Bumble Bee and his head popped off into it's two pieces. I pegged it back together just fine, and noticed it seems like there should be a screw there.

Could anyone who has him look at the back of his head and tell me if yours has a screw holding the two halves together?

I don't want to work through all of these pages, sorry, too many without knowing where to look.

But I do have a couple of questions:
1)Are we getting Deluxe (Warrior now, right?)scale version of the guy with antlers (name escapes me), Underbite, Bisk and Hammerstrike?

2)Is this toy line exclusively huge 3-step changers, Deluxes, 1-step changers and legions? Are we getting Voyagers?

From what we've seen and heard from recent announcements:

1) Most of the Decepticons that get toys are going to be legions or one-steps. There's a bigger toy for Fracture, but it appears to mainly serve a Minicon launching gimmick.

2)Those do appear to be the size ranges. Voyagers are comparable to 3-steps with little to no articulation.

So from all that, it appears that Warrior class is the most complicated they're going to get, which is a shame because I'd love to have a poseable big Grimlock or Underbite to scale with the others.

Seriously? That is lame. These Decepticon designs are some of the most exciting designs I have seen in a long time. They just click with me, and I want decent toys because I have to be increasingly picky for my budget and space concerns.

I feel like this toyline, without a full cast of warrior class Decepticons, is going to see very little of my money. I have Steeljaw and he is one of the most fun toys I have had in ages.

Nuc Convoy,
I totally agree with you on the Decepticon thing. Their designs are just killer. I am really hoping for more Con Warrior Class toys. Especially, Thunderhoof (antler guy).
If you get the chance though, check out Drift. He's really cool.

Looks like the decent toy budget went to Combiner Wars this year. Which is an amazing line, don't get me wrong, but it seems to be consolidating anything with even vague complexity.

I just hope RID isn't in for another round like AoE, with almost no Decepticons, entire subsections devoted to simpler, gimmicky designs and doomed to be pegwarming for months on end.

Well while Age of Extinction didn't have much to offer as far as Decepticons to make toys out of, RID actually does. And wasn't the entire point of creating the Decepticons, back in the 80s, to give kids people for their good guy toys to fight with? Is that not appealing anymore?

I saw Drift, I think he looks really good but the colours aren't terribly appealing. On twitter I saw an amazing repaint of RID2015 Drift in -- can I call him G1? -- Comic book Drift colours and it looked amazing. The mold has potential for certain.

I also think I may get Grimlock. I'm not entirely sold on his design, but it looks to be both fun and solid, and I can always not call him Grimlock. Think we'll get a redeco in G1 colours?

It's a serious shame to hear that there are no plans for more Warrior class Decepticons. The autobots in this line so far barely manage budge my interest-o-meter. But the 'cons send that needle flying *schwing*

Once I figured out how to get Steeljaws elbows to fully click into place he hasn't left my desk. So damned dynamic. He reminds me, because of the claw weapons, colourscheme, and the sci-fi truck design, of Cybertron Brushguard -- and that is one of my favourite little guys, so nostalgia factor is good -- but this toy, Steeljaw, is amazing. Like 300% improved. Bigger, better articulation, no giant missile tube sticking out of his back (I know its for idiot proofing the toys, but still, why must these missiles be SOOOOO long all the gtime).

If they could make Warrior-class toys of the entire Decepticon cast they would guarantee more pirchases from me -- and in Toronto these guys are priced at 19.99 for a Warrior at TRU. Just let that sink in a minute. Generations was 16.99, Combiner Wars is 17.99 and RID2015 is 19.99 for the same "size-class". This is breaking my toy buying heart.

As it stands we have at least two more coming up: Fracture and "Megatronus". The rest seem to be either Legion or One-Step.

No official word, just deductions based on what has been revealed through various conventions and press releases. That's all we have to go by.

I just picked up RiD Steeljaw and Strongarm today

Well all we know from Toy Fair is we are getting Warrior Class Sideswipe and Jazz. That doesn't mean there aren't more coming though.

Based on looking through the Transformers RID app and what can be unlocked by scanning toys etc. then the decepticons all really have limited forms/modes whereas the Autobots all have way too damn many variations. Almost all of these are directly based on the design difference between size classes and are named after them.

If Warrior-class is the only "real" class of transformers toys we are getting (I am using "real" to indicate a certain level of complexity, detail and scale) then based on the way things are looking there won't be a significant amount of the con characters in that scale.

I'm not saying for certain, but it is looking that way. The "One-Step" toys actually feel like an insult to -- not only my adult self -- the entire reason i fell in love with Transformers as a kid. Through my life TF toys got more complex, more detailed etc. and these all look terrible, have seriously limited articulation etc. and, worst of all, don't teach any puzzle solving skills, its a push-button solution that really only has one way to move the parts. One-Step TFs are the antithesis of TFs IMO.

This line to me feels like it will be a major letdown when it has so much going for it as a design aesthetic and concept...

I love, love, love, love my Steeljaw warrior-class toy. I would buy every one of the Decepticon designs I have seen from RID2015 thus-far in this size class. But I would rather buy an actual brick than buy a 1-step TF.

It's especially galling when most if not all the Cons this time around appear to be bigger than the Bots, but the toys don't scale appropriately (a la Prime Insecticons). I love Underbite as a character, but I'm disappointed that he only comes in dog size compared to the nicer figures.

I think it has something to do with how the show is set up. With that many Decepticons to capture, I can't help but feel they'll be more like "Monsters-of-the-Day/Week" as done in Japanese tokusatsu, like Super Sentai (or Power Rangers if you will) and Kamen Rider, thus won't get that much screen time, or play a significant part in the story.

That is probably the case, though a few leaked images seem to suggest that characters like Fracture and Thunderhoof might become recurring antagonists along with Steeljaw.

Coming to terms with the fact that media may be the best option to enjoy this line, opposed to my preferred method of toys. At least the show is entertaining.

There is certainly something going on here. I like it. I'm holding on to hope that this will bode well for the Warrior Class. This year isn't over yet.

I want to have hope for the Warrior Class. These designs have me excited to the level of Animated. I honestly have not felt like the aesthetic has been given such bold new life since then. It's trying something really interesting with the Decepticons in this series, and succeeding very well.

Head of Hasbro Marketing for the Transformers brand at Hasbro , Jerry Jivoin, confirmed in the interview that there will be more warrior class decepticons released as the show progresses.
Think about it, the show is there to sell toys and they already put their main characters at the front end to make sure that they sell first. When the decepticons will have more recurring roles, they will be released. No point in having mass market decepticons on the shelves that arent yet in the show much.

Also, another interview stated that this line is meant for younger children and only the warrior class would have figures that might appeal to fans. The line for fans and older children is generations.

Instead of separating different age groups through classes within lines, they are separating age groups by toylines. Simply put, the reason why fans may find this line unapealing is because it was not made with them (or even 12 year old kids) in mind, same with Rescue Bots.

Thank you for the links to the interviews, I will read them promptly.

So, the only market for media then becomes the comics to support the older fans?

Thanks for clarifying. I can understand the intentional divide on toy types and why they'd go that direction. Still, from what I've seen there's a lot to like about the show ant it's characters even for an older fan, and it'd be a shame if you couldn't get some nice representation for them.

That, and I selfishly want a warrior class Hammerstrike because SUPREMACIST SUBMARINE SHARK! (sorry)

Hammerstrike, Thunderhoof, Bisk (Oh God, BISK). All of them are amazing designs that scream to have a toy.

I decided Strongarm needed a little more love than Hasbro gave her. So I got out my brush.




You can see more over here.

Now I can't stop looking at Steeljaw.

Steady hand, nice painting. I'm always terrified to paint my TFs. I do Gunpla kits, but I feel less apprehension there...

I can understand the desire to have simplified toys for younger children, but I feel like the one-step business is taking it a bit far. My very first transformer ever was the original Beast Wars Megatron, when I was about 6 years old. He is not a very complex toy, but he holds just enough challenge to make him interesting without being frustrating. All the Beast Wars toys that I got were like this. I think if they had Warriors, Voyagers, and 3-steps WITH ARTICULATION, we would have a good assortment of toys that still comply with the needs of today's children without insulting their capabilities.

My first toys were all second-hand G1 stuff and, let's face it, they weren't the most complicated of transformations but they still required you to use your brain. I was into Transformers before I was in Kindergarten, so I feel like it is safe to say that One-Step changers aim their bar really low. Who are they designed to appeal to, exactly? Toddlers? And, if so, then why aren't they all in the Rescue Bots line instead of attached to media content that is too old for them?


Also, i am watching Episode 4 of RID2015 and I am wondering if we could even begin to see a working toy of ChopShop from this series. One robot mode whose alt mode appears to be 6 individual spider-like robots. That'd be rad, but if they are aiming on having the toy line aimed towards a more low-brow intellect level of children (seriously, I still don't understand how these toys are marketed to the 5 to 11 range, or was I just an exceedingly bright child?) it seems unlikely that the character will see a Warrior-class (highest complexity level available in this line...) figure. But it would be rad.

I never owned the Voyager Cybertron Defense Scattorshot mold from the Cybertron line, but recently acquired the mold when I bought the final BotCon 2009 boxed set off of the Club Store, and I gotta say that that figure is astounding compared to today's toys.

It's a Voyager class figure with an excellent amount of articulation, but do ya'll know how many steps it take to transform it? Six. Six measly steps:

1. Open out the feet.
2. Unfold and rotate two side panels.
3. Fold down the rotated side panels in the direction opposite from where they were folded down before.
4. Fold out the arms
5. Flip out the hands.
6. Flip up the head.

And that's it. The transformation is so simplistic and elementary, yet results in an impressively articulated figure with a ton of non-inhibiting gimmick features.

If they had gone that route of simplistic figures, keeping the transformations easy without compromising articulation or details, then I think this line wouldn't have gotten so much backlash from those who want to collect the cartoon-based lines over Generations.

Yes, many of the toys pre-2007 were kinda simple to transform yet resulted in wonderful toys. I'm not interested in the frustrating transformations myself, and love the Unicron trilogy toys. I do like what they are doing with generations this year but RiD is still not big on my list of faves. I want to see what thunderhoof looks like.

Simple is ok, so long as it results in an awesome figure.

Yeah, I tried both ways, it looks like it wants to fit but it just won't click in place. Maybe a only affecting some manufacturing/design defect like the leg issue on warrior Grimlock?

I feel the same way about Deluxe Hotshot from that same line. Hence why I feel that line is an all time high for style, design and engineering that every age can enjoy.

But the good news is I feel they are bringing it back with the Combiner Wars. They are also very simple in design but sturdy and well articulated. I only own Dragstrip so far but he feels very remeniscent of the cybertron line in his engineering.

I agree with you completely. I think that figure is a very good example of engineering simplicity done right. I just don't see it in the current RiD line. The figures are simple, but in a way that doesn't serve the toys very well. BTW, I have looked at several RiD figures in package during the last couple weeks, and I am not impressed with their overall look and detail either. I am not impressed with this line of toys at all, and I have no desire to buy anything I have seen thus far.

He's a really nice figure and Grimlock especially. Heck, even Bumblebee won me over.

I don't have any interest in the autobot toys other than Grill och thus far.

They have all pleasantly surprised me. The only one I wasn't that impressed with is Prime. Bee is GREAT. Best so far, IMO, Strongarm, Drift , and Steeljaw. I think Sideswipe and Jazz both look interesting.

I really had no intention of buying into this line either. Now I have them all.

Deluxe Optimus was great but I wish we got an actual leader class toy for Optimus

I'm actually happy that, for once, Optimus prime isn't the driving force behind a toy line.

I'm waiting for Takara's Adventure Strongarm, but haven't decided yet if I want the RID versions of the other three Wave 1 Warriors or the Adventure versions. As for Prime and Drift, if Takara doesn't make Prime (looks like they might do Nemesis in his place altogether), I'll get Hasbro's, but I'm also waiting to see what Takara's Drift might look like.

Adventure Steeljaw looks good, with a more blue steel paint scheme and painted eyebrows like the show.

Aside from the Generations Cyber series reported earlier, the online Brazillian Hasbro catalogue also had some new images for figures from the Titan Heroes and Titan Guardians line of Robots in Disguise.

And if anyone is wondering, the difference in Sideswipes is the size. One is 30.5 cm/12 inch with 4 points of articulation, and part of the Titan Heroes line we saw in box before. The other Sideswipe (and accompanying Steeljaw) is 17cm/6 inch with no aritculation and part of the Titan Guardians line. This is the first time we see images from that line.

The pictures have been mirrored below.
