Transformers Robots in Disguise Warrior Class Power Surge Optimus Revealed #HasbroToyFair #TFNY

The top and bottom pics look like two different molds.

They are - article says so.

Sabrblade wrote:The top and bottom pics look like two different molds.

The top looks like a remold of the Deluxe class version and the lower one like a new bigger one with a gimmick. I think when you plug in the Chestmaster, the wings and the shoulder guns unfold and maybe some lights and sounds are activated.

I really hope there is a Nova Prime repaint intended for Power Surge Optimus. It really looks like a perfect fit for Nova

we've to get a Scorponok toy!(i think he was in the trailer for season 2?)

That would be great. I would be absolutely satisfied with that if we don't get a Nova Prime out of Titans Return or Titan Wars.

The first time Optimus Prime takes flight! Except for G1, Cybertron, the Movieverse, aligned, and the season finale of RID!

I think he could fly in every show/univers at at least one point.

Yeah, he spends about 30% of the show flying now that I think about it

a white Sideswipe?

Oh yeah now I remember. I haven't seen that show in so long.

While we were already made aware of both a Warrior class and larger Power Surge Optimus toy, Hasbro has now revealed more images of these two along with official images of other new toys such as Warrior Class Windblade and Scorponok. Enjoy!

Is Windblade a remold of the Generations toy?

It kinda looks like that which would explain the alternate deco at the very least it looks like this one has better feet.


How the heck does Scorponok stand?

Scorponok is fascinating, interested in how his claws transform, they seem very interesting

Unless stated by hasbro, I'm going with definitely not.

first of all

Warrior Class Windblade looks waay better than that tacky Legion one! i'm impressed

& aye Scorpy looks ok, i still can't get the Bayformer one out of my head when i look at his scorpion mode though

& Optimus......with blades! Optimus......with........blades!

Hellscream9999 wrote:Unless stated by hasbro, I'm going with definitely not.

Then it has a lot of the same kind of molding including the sword which is also eerily similar with the Sword and it's sheath design invoking a lot of the same visuals as the Generations mold.

Fellow Seibertronians, courtesy of site owner Seibertron, we have the Robots In Disguise Products Photogallery for your viewing pleasure

Hasbro's new Robots In Disguise products including a new Warrior Class Windblade figure, Power Surge Optimus Prime, Platinum Edition Voyager Grimlock and more!

We've posted some of the pictures below, and you can check out the galleries Here, and you can see the Robots In Disguise Official Image Photogallery also. Let us know what you think of these newest editions to the RID line in the comments below.

Welp, so much for me not getting any more RID figures. Gonna need to gran Scorponok and Windblade. Maybe Bisk too.

Also: Why does Optimus Prime look like Tarn with his armored helmet?

So Windblade is a retool of the Generations deluxe. OK, that's fair enough. But Primus, did they have to get rid of the ball-jointed wrists? That was one of the few good things about that mold. I hope I'm wrong and it's just the photography making her look like she has no wrists, but if they DID nix the articulation then that's pretty sh!tty.

She never had ball-jointed wrists, but you can see here:



She does indeed have no wrist articulation, but I don't think that she is a remold of the gen figure however

Delta Magnus wrote:So Windblade is a retool of the Generations deluxe. OK, that's fair enough. But Primus, did they have to get rid of the ball-jointed wrists?

That looks like an all new mold to me and my Windblade doesn't have ball jointed wrists. They are mushroom pegged.

Also good to see that Hasbro is using the Battle Grimlock mold which I just got.

Don't worry, I can't almost guarantee you that you got it for much cheaper, and with a better paint job, in all likelihood, than whatever this 'Platinum' set will cost

I know it's fairly early, but as it's corroborated by the cg images, I feel justified in saying: GOD D@#N THAT IS A LOT ON NON-EXISTENT PAINT APPS

Like paint is the all most important thing ever.


You never disappoint me fandom (except for when you do which is all the time)


Could be bias since I like everything always have which could also mean I have no opinion.

That tends to be helpful in this franchise

May I ask how?

Fellow Seibertronians, hot on the heels of the product galleries, site owner Seibertron has uploaded a video of coverage of the Robots in Disguise product display from the Toy Fair to the site's YouTube account. Check it out, and leave your comments below.

It really doesnt look like a retool to me. It looks like a totally new mold which has a similar design. The transformation is bound to be different. Also, I have no clue which ball jointed wrists you are speaking of. Feel free to provide a picture so that we better understand what you are getting at.

LOST Cybertronian wrote:That and I have almost no interest in the BB

Oh yeah, I am pretty sure no one is regretting getting their takara grimlock even after seeing this news. Takara's deco is show accurate and you can buy it by itself, sounds like a win in my book.

Fires_Of_Inferno wrote:Also: Why does Optimus Prime look like Tarn with his armored helmet?

Glad to see I'm not the only one that had that thought.

So it looks like Scorponok has removable claws, but it looks like he can actually attach them without removing them from his shoulders first, well done hasbro

Oh man, spring loaded gimmicks in that Optimus?

That activate with a Minicon?

Is this Armada!?

Is Armada 2.0 Happening? Because I'm super okay with that!

"For the first time ever, Optimus Prime can fly."
THAT ISN'T EVEN TRUE OF THIS UNIVERSE'S OPTIMUS PRIME. Beast Hunters was only 3 years ago, people, come on. And it's definitely not the first Optimus Prime that can fly in all continuities. Ugh. Hasbro, get your facts straight.

Not sure what you were expecting, they can't even transform them correctly

Give the girl some credit, her presentation was good, even if the facts were a touch off.

Whoops! My mistake, she has mushroom peg wrists. Still better than no wrists at all, though.

(I don't actually own Gen Windblade because from what I've seen it's not a very good figure. Please don't shoot me.)

The Hasbro panel showed a few upcoming Robots in Disguise toys and we got the 3D renders for the Warrior class figures, the big Power Surge Optimus and the Platinum set. However, there was a ton of new stuff on the show room, giving us an idea at the vast amount of products coming out this year. This vast amount makes sense since the Investors Presentation made us aware that 70% of the Transformers toy market is dominated by Rescue Bots and Robots in Disguise (with Generations only making up 30%).

Here is a list of everything else that was revealed only through the display area:

One Step Changer Bisk





One Step Blizzard Strike Sideswipe



One-Step Changers/Advanced Optimus Prime





One-Step Changers/Advanced Strongarm



Legion Groundbuster



Legion Blizzard Strike Drift



Battle 2-pack Sideswipe with Minicon WindStrike
Battle 2-pack Strongarm with Minicon Sawtooth









Powersurge Heros Bumblebee with Minicon Buzzstrike
Powersurge Heros Sideswipe with Minicon Windstrike








Minicon 4 pack with Autobot Dragonus, Bash Breaker, Lord Doomitron, and Lancelon
3 step Energon Boost Bumblebee (with all-spark blue) and 3 step Drift (regular colours)



There is also a Warrior Grimlock rerelease which has a box with a new playability feature highlighted involving the weapon minicons.



And a slew of minicons, many of which can become weapons, such as Tricerashot, Lord Doomitron, Weapon Slipstream and Bashbreaker.

I'm not a wizard I can't pretend to know what Hasbro is up to I'm just guessing.

The show runners not knowing if the name was available for toys, hasbro not caring enough to notify them, no plans to make a toy at the time so nobody thought it would be a problem, take your pick.

Hasbro has a history of making sure that their cartoons have used names that they can use. For them to not do so would make them look bad.
