I was just going to post it too. I am also wondering, are the Rescue Bots now going to come with the corresponding humans as well?

The stock photos for these do show the human & accessory combinations as well so I'd imagine the image is probably a placeholder. I can't see the humans coming with these, not without bumping up the price point.

Hmm, Medix, shame we couldn't have gotten first aid or Fixit.

But new rescue bots can only be a good sign that the toyline is doing well.

Nice to finally see new characters. Also nice to see they're re-releasing some of the rarer figures. I don't collect Rescue Bots, but I heard some figures like Boulder, Blades, and Chase were a pain to get, so this is good for collectors and children who could never find them before.

Hoist is back sweet.

Medix is a terrible name. Should have went with either Ratchet (since it's in Prime and he could re-occur like Prime and Bee) or used the name Lifeline but oh well.

I wonder if they will be new characters joining the cast in the next season?

Hoist should totally be able to pull other Rescue Bot vehicles like a real tow truck.

Also, how are they planning on putting in the new robots in the show? They did leave open the possibility back in the first episode when it was implied the Autobots had long lost track the RB's were even still alive (and possibly more than just the four main bots being the implication), but are the humans going to be part of the Burns family as well?

Finally, the next wave should have a MorBot w/ Morrocco human companion for the Rescue Bots to fight.

Actually, I'm kinda glad they went with the new name "Medix", since there's only so many medics in the TF universe, and it would be a new character anyway.

I'm happy. I'm glad to see the toyline and show's going strong.
