TFW2005 boards member Mr. Chaos has once again delivered to us a bevy of product reveals, this time pertaining to the Robots in Disguise line. From his product database, in addition to items we had heard of before, new listings he uncovered were…
One-Step• Quillfire (B4653)
• Springload (B4652)
Legion Class
• White Sideswipe (B2977)
• Black Bumblebee (B2976)
• Patrol Mode Strongarm (B4684)
• Drift (B4684)
• Thunderhoof (B4683)
• Clampdown (B4862)
• Windblade (B4681)
Warrior Class
• Fracture (B4686)
• Megatronus (B4687)
Perhaps most notably here is the possibility of the much-discussed Fan Built Bot Windblade appearing in the new show, or at least its toyline.
Check it all out after the jump, and stay tuned to TFW as Toy Fair approaches!

This was my first concern, but given the profile the character has now I doubt Hasbro would be dumb enough to do it.
This could actually be really good.

I recall reading that Megatronus Prime left Cybertron as part of a self-imposed exile. He wasn't there to be reborn as a new gen Cybertronian.
OptimusPrimeval
Come to think of it, who's to say Megatron from Prime isn't Megatronus Prime of the Thirteen in the same way Orion Pax from Prime was Optimus Prime of the Thirteen?
LegendAntihero
Has anyone come across pictures yet? I don't feel like looking through 10 pages to see if there are any
Autovolt 127
True but let's face it The Fallen is the more memorable name and Megatronus Prime sounds stupid.
That would be awesome.
sonicwing
Should Windblade join Team Bumblebee or be like Wheeljack from Transformers Prime???
Snake_eyes1975
After being straightened out by eagc7 in pleasant conversation…I totally forgot Megatron, did NOT die at the end of TFP. Thanks!
Now THAT sounds freah and interesting. Megatron is my Fav TF character, and I would be interested in the show if it focused on him alot.

If she's on the show, it's probably not a stretch to assume that down the line we'll likely get a Scott-penned episode that focuses on her. Provided the character is actually that prominent, I mean.
soundwaverulls
Not necessarily. If he does turn up, he'll probably be one with the Allspark, and probably beyond right and wrong. In that case, there would be no reason for him to be called the Fallen.

Im hoping wave 3 will at lease have legion thunderhoof.
phoenixliger
No sunstreaker, swoop, snarl, sludge, slag or sari my disappointment grows.
I want to see some autobots that aren't good and they never turn decepticon.
these autobots should believe in there cause and that clashes with bumblebees leadership (kinda like Impactor in the comics hell it could be all the wreckers)
LegendAntihero
I'm excited for Megatronus
SeanTF1967
When did they say anything about Megatron coming back
QLRformer
Can't wait to see the photos of these toys.
It's good that Windblade now gets her own toy. But does this imply that she is part of RID, or is she an exclusive toy?
Autovolt 127
That wouldn't be funny to me.
That's true, that they said. If she does show up, I hope she's voiced by Kari Wahlgren in her Saya voice from Blood+.
I have a feeling that's actually who Megatronus is, I mean if it was The Fallen they would just call it The Fallen.
That's a ship I can see working.
Veritas Prime
If this really does confirm Windblade, would they change her origin story?
ArmadaSentinel
So I guess that confirms that $30 Megatronus listing as an RID figure.
I dont think this is Megatron, as didnt we hear somewhere that Optimus is going to be meeting up with all of the Primes? I have a feeling that the Fallen is going to be the new primary villain after Steeljaw.
NemiMonkey
That might just be the case.
Hot damn Jazz is getting a fig. Wonder if he'll also get the legion treatment so we can get a visored version as well.

In RID 2015:
Drift + Windblade =
Anguirus
I'm not thrilled by the Slipstream nameslap but let's put it in perspective. The name "Slipstream" is only associated with the "Female Starscream" character through a few niche books and fan materials. Is it officially official, yes, is it canonically canonical, inarguably. But Slipstream has never been marketed in any mainstream sense.
I want to give the show kudos for having mostly brand new names for the Decepticons though. And Minicons always seem to get slapped hard with inappropriate name reuses.
