TRANSFORMERS ROBOTS IN DISGUISE 2015 : LEGION CLASS FIXIT VIDEO REVIEW

He honestly does not look that bad. He seems to snap into place pretty well and he is in scale and looks nice. I will pick him up to go with Warriors Sideswipe and Strongarm.

Man, Fixit looks great! Easily the best of the Legion figures so far.

It did! I have no interest in the 1-Step's (neat as they may be) so this version will do fine

Me too, this may be the very first Legion toy from this line I'll ever buy.

I hope not. Wasnt a big fan. Great design but not a character I hope to see again. I still hope for all the decepticons though, I love all their designs.

To be fair, Young Bee stole that episode, robbing Quillfire of much of any chance to be interesting.

If there's any chance of us getting the Galvatron that the Covenant book spoke of to appear in this show, I could see Quillfire as having once been a member of Random, which was Galvatron's cult of chaos.

Is it still a spoiler thatQuillfire LOOKS like Bulkhead's vehicle mode? If this and the rumors that Prime Characters are slated for appearences later on/season 2, Someone else's money* says that Quillfire is another one of Hasbro's infamous Pre-tools.

*Because I'm not dumb enough to bet with MY OWN cash.

Something tells me the new Warrior and Legion wave will be hard to find early since I have yet to find a store with these in-stock selling them outside of the complete case.

Malador, who debuted on Out Of Focus, listed as a cartoon-only character as according to TFWiki.net. Is this really true that Malador will never get a toy in the near future? All other characters do suffer the same fate as Malador did, and yet they still will be getting a toy. Will Malador ever get a figure in the near future?

I get such a TF Animated vibe from this little guy!

I have no interest in this line whatsoever but I still need to pick this guy up.


He looks like such a fun little figure.

You convinced me! I plan to get this one now. Thank you for the review!

oh im definitely getting one as the figure seems so well formed in all aspects , I love his character on the show and its understandable for his enthusiastic team spirit as he did spend a long time on his own travelling through space on a ship full of criminals

Some possibly big news has been hinted at in the recent update to the Transformers: Robots in Disguise Game App. The character section where one unlocks characters after purchasing the toys has been updated with the following characters: Megatronus, Prowl, Ironhide and Razorclaw Razorpaw.

While this concurs with the previous rumour of a Megatronus figure being released, as well as finally giving us an idea of the character's look, the toy class indicated offers more possible hints of things to come. One of the previous listings that this app revealed was One Step Thunderhoof (also included below for reference), which had his class name written atop the locked character. In his case, it was a One Step class toy (which was later confirmed). These new characters have different class names, Ultra and Champion, which are not classes available among the toys yet. This could simply be for the app, but the fact that it is directly related to the toys does make this an interesting possibility. To add to this theory, we can see that the Megatronus character has other toy classes behind him, which shows that the Ultra toy can be a separate entity from the rumoured Warrior class figure.

I swear, that Megatronus has the Leader Jetfire mold written all over it.

The Megatronus image also lines up perfectly with what was seen in the japanese intro:

anyone else getting a Tarn vibe off Megatronus

grimdragon2001 wrote:anyone else getting a Tarn vibe off Megatronus

I can certainly see where you're coming from.

Megatronus just looks like an Optimus Prime retool. He's probably the Fallen.

Decepticon Sunstorm wrote:I swear, that Megatronus has the Leader Jetfire mold written all over it.

Oh you ruined it!

So I guess that they are going all in on the Covenant of Primus original 13 Primes stuff in the new show. That sounds really interesting.

I was kind of hoping that this character would turn out to be Galvatron, but I'm still excited for it.

Darth Jumpy wrote:So I guess that they are going all in on the Covenant of Primus original 13 Primes stuff in the new show. That sounds really interesting.

I certainly hope so. I'm sure I'm not alone in wanting to see more of them since they consolidated the whole mythos about them.

Since the RID2015 Cartoon series decepticons on earth. Are robots with beastial elements that transform into vehicles. Hoping this RID Megatron is a Leader class toy that is a Triple changer. that can Transform into a Robot, Then Wolf and Cybertronian Jet mode.

"Wold"?
Looking at keyboard
Ah, "Wolf"! Gotcha.

Honestly, I don't think such a mold could pull this off. A DRAGON can come out way more easely out of a jet than a wolf for sure.

Still, I do like the "anthro" Decepticon concept. I wonder if these forms would ever be explained? My random guess is some sort of McGuffin Device fused the Predacons and Decepticons together, creating that weird hybrid species of transformers.

Figured RID Megatronus's Jet mode could look like a Cybetronian style jet mode. Similar to Transformer Prime, Megatron's jet mode. Think making the wolf mode have wings. would help the Cybertronian jet mode look better.

I heard that the creators said on Twitter somewhere that there was a scene cut from the first episode's beginning with Prowl that shows that he is Bumblebee and Strongarm's boss.




Would explain why the show starts so abrupt.




No source besides one of the Creators twitter but I have seen multiple people say this so it seems like its true I'll edit this post when I can confirm.

that is a nice ironhide, I would buy it if it comes in legion class (3" tall)

I find it odd hat they would have a Prowl and Ironhide toy in RID possibly on the shelves the same time or close to the same time as there are expected to be CW toys on the shelves. Or one is much further down the line than I think, or one is much sooner than I think.

Interesting, I guess.

Maybe the rebirth of the Cybertronian race in "Predacons Rising" brought with it a lot more diversity?

The Robots in Disguise App update which brought us the first image of Megatronus, also brought lots of other updates. This was my first time using the app, and while some new character classes do not seem associated to toys (such as the Champions, Desert Optimus and Cybertron Underbite ), there is a section which shows which toys have been unlocked. This section gives us a good idea at the toys that will probably be released. There are several repeating themes, such as a “Gold” Grimlock which sports a deco akin to G1, a night Bumblebee which has been a constant stealth deco since the first movie, and “clash” decos which point towards more evidence of a rumoured “Clash of the Transformers” subline. The more notable redeco is an Ultra Magnus using the Optimus Prime Legion mold. There is also another unannounced class that appears, along with the Ultra Class, called Titan Changer. This last one is a head scratcher since so far, Titan meant a non transforming class of toys. This may be another simplified toy class to go with the Hyperchange line.

Also, pictures provided by autobase aichi (who also took pictures of the other character variants) show Megatronus’ alt mode. Since the Megatronus character is unlockable in the game and can be transformed in game, the blogger unlocked him and snapped a photo of his alt mode (I didn’t have enough points to unlock). The alt mode seems to be a cybertonian tank (gasp!).

So Megatronus will be a deluxe-class H-tank? Meh. Why are there no "voyager" scale figures in this line?

GuyIncognito wrote:So Megatronus will be a deluxe-class H-tank? Meh. Why are there no "voyager" scale figures in this line?

He is getting an Ultra Figure too. It was described in the list and there is a picture of it here: http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/first-image-of-megatronus-and-new-robots-in-disguise-toys-and-classes-hinted-in-the-app/32798/

Also, since Grimlock and Optimus are also available in "deluxe" class, we need a megatronus in that same class to scale with them.

Guys Prowl was going to be in the first episode but his scene was cut and here is my evidence a tweet from one of the show's staff.

Poor Ultra-Magnus being reduced to a repaint of Optimus and not getting his own section and being in the Optimus section.

Sure, but that doesnt mean there would have been a toy of him. There isn't toy of every decepticon yet and no toy of Micronus. It turns out that when you look at this app correctly, the Ironhide and Prowl characters are not yet confirmed as being unlockable through a toy purchase.

I never said they were going to be toys.



I'm just saying that Prowl was going to be in the first episode which means he had a rid design made for him and I can see Prowl showing up in season 2 or something like that with Ironhide.

The thread is called "Transformers Robots in Disguise (2015) Products Thread", and it on the Transformers Toys Discussion board, in the Transformers Toys Forums.

Not sure how its not related to the thread when I'm on subject.

Yeah, thats why I assumed you were talking about the toys. If you want to talk about the show itself and who is in it and who isnt, please go to this thread. Dont feel like I am forcing you to do something or not, I just want to avoid confusion and I want to avoid more cases people telling you that this isn't the thread for that kind of conversation.

But I'm talking about the Prowl that was revealed in this thread.



I did mention it on the show thread but no one noticed.

A possible Prowl toy was revealed in this thread (turns out, probably not), NOT that Prowl would be appearing on the show (which is what you are writing about). When new age of extinction toys were announced, the toy thread discussed the toys while the thread about the film talked about what the toy reveals meant for the movie. This is the same thing. While the interest in your post on the other thread may have been little, writing it again in this thread will get an even lower response since the people coming to this thread are discussing the toys and NOT the show. In fact, as you noticed, it just gets the response that you are posting in the wrong thread. You can do as you wish, but if you hope for a discussion on anything show related, you probably wont find it here.

Sorry about that my lesson has been learned.




Just trying to bring in some discussion.

But his alt mode was confirmed to be a H tank, which is not what Optimus' alt mode is. In any case, Drift, Bumblebee and Jazz all seem to have similar shapes but they are all different molds afterall.

I like Grimlock in green and black, but I am far more down for the G1 Gold warrior version. I may get both. Also Clash Optimus looks similar to Cybertron's deluxe Armada Prime.

Holy shit that's a lot of repaints.

PrymeStriker wrote:Holy **** that's a lot of repaints.

I was thinking that too but then I looked at the Prime Line and realized that it was pretty similar. Most of the Beast Hunters line was just retools, Bee had his night deco there too, and between Takara and Hasbro, there were a bunch of seekers and both Prime and Kup just using different colors.

And there was a truckload of Voyager Megatron redecos (and even a bunch of redecos of the cyberverse class). While this looks like a lot, there is a definite precedent for it and its just max 2 per mold, which is what combiner wars is doing too. Legion, one step, and warrior bee are all getting at least on redeco, so it looks like A LOT, but they are different molds. Still, it gives me vibes of the swarm that took over the movie lines.

I actually find it super cool how we get a hint of how different the toy is from the models shown. Looking at one step optimus, we can see the vehicle halves hanging in back of his shoulders.

Also, making a prediction that those Clash of the Transformers redecos will be similar to what Takara is doing with their 2 packs. It will be 2 packs featuring exclusive redecos, dont know if they will be store exclusives though (they might be).

Looking forward to that bigger Megatronus toy. Wishing it is Leader class and has a fully articulated robot mode.

Megatronus' alt mode looks like a combo between TFA shockwave and Prime Shockwave...

OK so Megatronus is a tank huh? Yea i really do think i found my Generations Tarn
