    NOTE: We've seen the Slipstream robot mode image before. I've included it (and the US packaging image) from the old news story for the sake of completeness, because for some reason this new set depicts him in European packaging.

    Wave 2: Velocirazor (formerly "Buzzsaw"), Beastbox, Ratbat, Sandsting (formerly "Scorpion"); UPDATE: listed for preorder at Robot Kingdom!

    Also, this site seriously does not believe in downscaling.

    Thank you, Nevermore!

    Ok, after scanning the codes of wave 2 we know:
    Velocirazor is a samurai, he doesn't have a master and takes a lot of time to sharpen his claws.
    Ratbat is an aerial fighter and the info about his master is "deleted".
    Sandsting stung his master, so he is being repaired.
    And Beastbox works for bananas and energon.

    Oh yes I want these.

    Some of those minicons need paint.

    I am surprised no one is going crazy about Ratbat and thinking that it means Soundwave might at least get a toy for the show. :lol

    These will be the only NuRiD figures I actively hunt down. I like minicons to begin with, and the fact they come with weapons on that cool logo sprue is icing on the cake.

    Moar stickers! Actually, I'm not even joking. I genuinely liked the DIY building and sticker sheet application of the Arms Micron line.

    Weird how Beastbox is an Autobot. Velocirazor is obviously Overkill but is also an Autbobot. Sandsting is Scorpinok, to me. Sawback is like Steeljaw but in doggy form. :D  Ratbat is pretty cool looking.

    I do think these are neat, but they need paint. And it doesn't help that the Deployers suck.

    Guess I'm waiting to see what TakaraTomy does here yet again.

    So what is the expected US retail price for these little guys? RK has a set of 4 for $22, so I'm assuming $4 each?
