It's that time again, the RiD game app updated the other day, and once again the update brought with it the reveals of several new toys.
unlike last time, this isn't mostly new mini-cons. in fact there's only 1 new one.
Mostly this is just the stuff we saw at Toy Fair a few weeks ago, but there are a few brand new reveals here.

One again since I don't play the game much I lack the in game currency to buy the characters to provide better pics or vehicle mode pics. but I do have some screenshots of the character select screen to tide everyone over until either I or someone else can unlock them.

New to this update

Optimus Prime
Power Surge


Warrior Power Surge


Warrior Power Surge Elite (a second power surge warrior? maybe a store exclusive?)


Desert (not sure if new)


Pumpkin (not sure if new)


Bumblebee
Switchblade Night (a repaint of the new one step bumblebee design)


Power Hero


Hero Power Surge


Sideswipe
Power Hero


Battle Pack Alpine


Drift: there's a new one listed, but I'm not sure which it is. Hero, Blizzard Hero, Blizzard Deployer, Blizzard Warrior, Titan Hero.

Windstrike
Weapon Stealth (A red repaint of the original release of Windstrike, from the Alpine Sideswipe Battle Pack)


Windblade
Warrior


Ratchet
Oddly, no starter

Legion (Remould of Strongarm)


One-Step (Remould of One-Step Evolved Strongarm)


Warrior (Remould of Strongarm)



Scorponok
Oddly, no starter.
Warrior


Bisk:
BASK YOUR EYES ON ALL THIS BISK!
Starter


Legion


One-Step


Warrior


Hero (3 step?)


Paralon
Warrior (Purple repaint or possibly remould of Scorponok, character model appears to have a Beast Wars esque Scorponok head but character artwork is just a repaint)


Scatterspike
Warrior (Reddish repaint of Quillfire)


So, from all this we can see that
1: Ratchet is likely in the show since it's unlikely that there'd be THIS many toys of a non-show character, even if they are all remoulds.
2: there's a lot of repaints coming our way
3: we will have ALL THE BISK WE COULD POSSIBLY EVER WANT!! the thought of which is making me hungry  

 

Well guess at this point,Ratchet's gonna be on the show all right which is awesome.   Also glad to see Bisk finally getting a Warrior figure as well. Paralon's a cool homage to BW Scorponok it seems and Scatterspike's cool too.

 

YERH WARRIOR BISK! Hope that means we also get a warrior Clampdown!

 

So we're getting a warrior class Bisk afterall. Yay!

And it looks like Ratchet will be a remold/retool of Strongarm and a repaint/retool of Quillfire into Scattorespike.

 

Warrior Bisk was awesome enough, but WARRIOR RATCHET?! Fucking SCORE, man! A new toy of my favourite Prime character, AND basically confirmation that he'll be in the show~

 

I wonder what the improvements on the Strongarm moguls will be for Warrior Ratchet

 

wow, bisk and ratchet. and a beast wars scorponok homage. neato.

 

Bisk

Yes please. The Decepticons have the best designs in this show, and Bisk is easily one of the best

 

Very happy to see Ratchet getting a warrior class release. I haven't been a big fan of the RID toys, but I'll consider getting him if he looks decent enough.

 

BISK!!!!
And a warrior Ratchet? Looks like I might be able to retire my Prime Ratchet figure from my collection. That last warrior class figure looks just like Quilfire.

 

I'm not convinced Warrior Ratchet is a Strongarm retool like the Legion one, the chest looks way too different. Not that I'm complaining, of course.

 

The legs and arms are definitely Strongarm
Since on the toy the chest is a single piece that folds up into place it wouldn't be impossible to replace it with the new window chest piece for ratchet
We'll know for certain once someone unlocks him In Game and transforms him. Or once we see actual pics of the toy

 

I will take this as confirmation that Ratchet will be on the show. I like the designs of both Power Surge Optimus and Power Hero Bumblebee. Scorponok looks good. Clearly Bisk is getting a bigger role. Maybe Hasbro showed him in RID first before anyone else for a reason? Even though we know he will be in Season 2. I do like Scorponok, he looks great.

 

Still waiting on that Pumpkin Optimus Prime toy. Make it happen Hasbro!

 

UGH! Of all the existing Decepticons they could've chosen to make a Warrior toy of, they chose the googly eyed lobster.

 

Warrior Ratchet??? Oh, please mean what I think this means! And Pumpkin Optimus Prime???  

 

So... Strongarm got a sex change?

 

Finally the toy line seems to be picking up real good now. Sad how it took until its "cancellation" to get more Decepticons on the show as toys. Still waiting to see if Hasbro will make a larger Underbite, Warrior Class Clampdown, and a good figure for Chop Shop. Ratchet is cool, but I wonder if the rest of the Prime cast will show up anymore as stated from a year ago.

 

Pretty much what warrior Ratchet will be.
