Perhaps those ones should be prioritised along with ones who feature in more than one episode.
If that already covers the ones we have had so far then it's time to broaden it out - I can't say what's best though as I've have not seen the show enough to know who is who in that regard.
Technically, isnt the only decepticon with an Earth mode One Step Fracture? Because there is no indication that any decepticon scanned an earth vehicle once they escaped. I mean fixit has them all in his computer from the time they were on his ship and they look the same as we see them when they are on earth. So technically none of them on the show have earth modes.

It also looked like the Target I was at today had skipped Wave 5 of the one-steps (which has the new Gold Armor Grimlock and Patrol Mode Strongarm) and went straight to Wave 6 which is all repacks of various Wave 1-4 things.

How about prioritizing the ones who are show in more than one mode _at all_? Some of them, infuriatingly, din't even get that.
I remember during Beast Wars the number of Maximals and Predacons released was basically even. What happened since then to convince Hasbro to skimp on the bad guys?

This line does seem to be rather blatantly sales-driven, doesn't it? Not that it ever wasn't all about sales, but looking back at previous lines we've gone from rotating the entire cast (G1), upgrading characters with entirely different toys (Beast Wars), selling the main character a billions times over but still attempting some form of diversity (Movie/Prime), to now just selling the main characters a billions times over and to hell with diversity.

Yeah, I've thought all along that this entire line screams of corporate interference. From the easy brick $hits to the non-existent diversity, this line is quickly becoming the pile of trash I figured it would if things didn't change

What I dont like about this though is that now there will be no indication that Cons sell. Because there arent enough anymore to base those numbers on. If these autobots are all parents can buy, then that is what they will buy and then hasbro will say "hey, it works". And it will be an infernal cycle.
Although this is nothing new to toylines. Look at all those Batman toylines where you get batman in 10 different suits and one joker figure. I do get why though and I have seen it first hand: nobody wants to give a villain as a gift.
I remember looking for toys once and an old lady was looking at Spider-man toys. She then asked me for help since she didnt know what to get. She knew her grandson liked spider-man but he already had a spider-man toy and she was lost. She didnt want to give him a villain alone either. So I told her to get vs pack so that her grandson could get some variety. I did mess up once though when I was in grade school and assumed a kid already had a spidey and got him a venom toy for his birthday. Only to realize later that he didnt have a spider-man toy (what kind of childhood is that?!)
Optimus and Bumblebee are now so recognisable that if a relative is shopping with the idea of transformers in mind, those are the two they will be looking for. I did like how the 4th film tried to make Grimlock as prevalent, for the sake of some variety, at least in the general public's idea of the brand.

That's probably close, they (hasbro, probably) probably didn't prepare for fiction-creating by giving the 's pre-earth modes; so in the absence of any reference, and maybe not knowing what to do for them (or not being allowed to create random modes), the studio just slips the earth modes in, and hopes that nobody questions it too much.

No it's just a cost cutting measure. It was done on Beast wars, it was done on Prime, it's being done here.

Fair enough, I don't actually know, I was just using logic to create a rational answer; I don't actually care, it gave me a laugh, so that's good enough.

I like how their bot mode is really more like a beast mode and then they turn into vehicles. I would love so see some more 'cons turned into plastic warrior class.
Considering how little face time most of them got, I understand why we're not seeing most of them.
I know it would be an amazing feat of engineering, but I'd love to see the one that is made out of a bunch of spider minicons. I'll settle for Steeljaw's crew though.

Yes. Thunderhoof, Fracture and others are worthy of good warrior toys. Needs to happen

OK agreed strongly. The alt modes are very good for this show! The bots modes a pretty cool too. I really like the style.

Thanks for taking the time to do that, it was very interesting and helpful.
It does make me think that some of them would make super nice Voyager toys if they decide to make something that size that isn't a 3 step - Thunderhoof especially. Though I guess the 3-step might be adequate in some ways.
I am wondering did they just use left over Bulkhead CGI Mesh, or is there some plan to put Bulkhead in the show as a Guest (I notice he was on the cover of a comic already).
Sorry if he's been on already as I said before I'm way behind on this show so I'm only now playing catch up on information.
----
I think that New large Adventures Optimus Mould would make a great Ultra Magnus especially with a new head. It would complement the previous Weaponizer remould rather well.
Is Magnus on the show yet - as I notice he's name dropped by the sound chip on the new Adventure's Optimus toy and he just got a Legion toy?.
If someone want's to educate me they can tell me who has guested on the show that isn't a Escaped Decepticon.

I wanna say that Tak is making at least one voayger. A retool of FoC Grimlock into who else but Grimlock. I would also love to see some voyager class figures for this line. I think the 3 steps work size wise though.
Posted by RAR on August 26th, 2015 @ 2:59pm CDT
I think Arcee's Voice artist tweeted she was going to be on the show and I heard something about Bulkhead too.
Also Predacon's Rising left us with Ratchet looking after an injured Magnus so - has that even been addressed yet ?
I know the link to Prime is mild at best But Bee does mention thing like having fought Megatron and now he has to do whatever silly thing he's doing at that time etc... (doesn't he).
I did hear that some were complaining that the Prime related stuff at the end of the season was all very Prime related and a bit out of the blue for people who hadn't seen the previous show... so I do wonder what people think the wee kiddies would have made of that Megatronus stuff etc...
Speaking of which is that Megatron with another name or the actual old school Megatronus ? (in which case why isn't he The Fallen) they were the same individual weren't they ?

Windblade and Jazz make guest appearances.
My understanding is that RID15 happens after the Prime series. From what I've heard some of the Prime characters show up. Maybe just in the comics though. I've completed season one via the internet. I don't think all the shows have aired in the US yet.
Megatronus is not Megatron.
Hope that helps.

I dunno, maybe my avatar gives you a hint, but I just cannot take this Megatronus seriously. Just the style of the face, with the doofy over-sized crest (a problem Unicron-megatron had in the movie), it was cool as a helmet, but it just doesn't make him look all that menacing. Add to that that he suffers bad-guy-syndrome (is completely ineffectual at killing his enemies/living up to the supposed hype) and I lose any and all respect/fear I might have had for the guy.
He is certainly nowhere near as frightening and imposing as War Within Fallen, now he left a permanent impression on me in my youth; this one, will definitely be forgotten
Posted by RAR on August 26th, 2015 @ 4:00pm CDT
The one who looked like Predaking - might have been Thunderwing - If they had thought to put him in the show - he could have a reused Predaking's Mesh and also give Hasbro an excuse to make a repaint toy too.
I still find I type Windblade sometimes and Wingblade other times - boy that names really will just not stick right in my mind.

Idk to me, voyagers are a very important class, maybe even more important to me than deluxe/warrior class. I don't know why they kicked voyagers out of RID, cuz TF Prime had voyagers.

I agree. We need voyagers and leader class figures back in the RiD 2015 line
Posted by no-one on August 26th, 2015 @ 8:16pm CDT
Who in this line would make a good leader class figure? I'm not disagreeing, I'm just curious about your thoughts. Megatronus is the only character that I think would be that big if we are trying to scale figures based on sizes from the show. The 5 step version probably fits that size pretty well already.LegendaryAntiHero wrote:SillySpringer wrote:D-Maximus_Prime wrote:carytheone wrote:Hey RAR, fracture is the only Con that I'm aware that isn't an escapee.

Well all the old cast is prominant in the RID comics, if that helps:
Posted by RAR on August 26th, 2015 @ 10:12pm CDT
The reason I was curious about Bulkhead was as his Vehicle mesh has been used on another Character and magnus' toy is an Optimus repaint - so I was wondering is that a consequence of Ratchet fixing him or does he recover first then get reformatted.
Or is this another Predacons in Beast Hunters like situation where the toyline is out of synch with the Media.
Now there is a thought what would it be like to Drop a genuine Beast Hunters Style Predacon into the show. I suppose the lack of vehicle mode might be an issue but many of them can fly.
I suppose that ship has sailed now though - but putting them in since they were MIA would get the show some interest from Beast fans perhaps who otherwise might not be watching it yet.
I wasn't avoiding it It's just something I would have to hunt for it's not something I can easily see without having to hunt for it. aside from what gets put on Youtube.

How in the Hell can you not like that accent! That is like awesome!

I get the fun, but come on, why would a cybertronian crime boss sound just like an earth crime boss from 1930s films. Its so distracting. Especially when pretending to be a god. Also, he's a hell of a pushover for a crime boss.
Oh and I dont want a Scowl toy, he seems to have the laziest transformation for an animated model, and not a great looking robot mode. However a kickback toy would be pretty incredible (although impossible).

Why do any Cybertronians have Earthen accents? Why don't they all just sound like HAL 9000? Or Ben Stein?william-james88 wrote:I get the fun, but come on, why would a cybertronian crime boss sound just like an earth crime boss from 1930s films.

How did G1 Jazz have his accent? How about movie Jazz, Drift or Que? How about any transformer: how do they get their accent??? In short: I love it! It is brand new and it works! Plus a crime boss with massive antlers and turns into a tractor? come on!?

It adds variety and helps make him more memorable. And yeah, cybertronian Mandark, that takes me back

YES, Underbite can scale at any size. I forgot about him. Good call.D-Maximus_Prime wrote:Megatronus, Underbite and Optimus would make good Leader classes; Grimlock and maybe Clampdown would make good voyagers.
I like Thunderhoof's voice just fine, see. PED, oof... I almost forgot about him...
I would like to see a Groundpounder and Headlock combo. Who am I kidding, bring em all on
