And while Kre-O isn't a transforming Transformer toy, at least a good chunk of them, they're still under the Transformers brand name, released by the company who owns the IP. It's like saying R.E.D figures or Action Masters aren't Transformers (which, admittedly, some people still adamantly deny).

 

Because this Rumble is 3.5 inches tall. About MP scale.

 

Let me rephrase. RTS Demolition Rumble was canceled and not released anywhere. United Rumble was the red one.

I meant actual Transformers meant to interact with other Transformers.

 

Both still count. The entire question is about what colour Hasbro considers the character, so even unreleased versions or mainline-adjacent still count if Hasbro at least considered them at any point.

Of course it’s a moot point because the entire purpose of Studio Series is being cartoon accurate, where the character was blue, so regardless of Hasbro’s position they were going to colour the character accordingly.

 

I'm gonna have to wait and see on this one.
I'd love better versions of the micro cassettes, but I would prefer compatibility with Soundwave & Blaster.

 

The product description says he's 3.5" SCALE. It does not say that he is 3.5". Tell me, are Siege Prowl and Siege Impactor the same height? Because both of their product descriptions say they are 5.5" scale. I'll answer that question for you, no they're not the same height. A height scale is not the same thing as their literal height.

 

He's 3.5 inches tall just like Earthrise Hoist & Earthrise Cliffjumper are both 5.5 inches tall.

 

Okay I hate to add more stupidity to what is a pretty silly debate, but I’ve always considered there to be three color schemes in the argument.
There’s the classic red/black:


there’s the blue/dark blue color that Frenzy’s G1 and Selects toys have:


and there’s the illusive purply color of cartoon Rumble:

Now, I’m generally for Rumble being red simply due to the alliteration of it, but now I subscribe to the belief that it depends on which color scheme is used in addition to the red. If it’s blue/dark blue, to me, he’s Frenzy and the red guy is Rumble. If they use the purple, then that’s Rumble and red becomes Frenzy’s.

I feel silly for how involved this reply is.

 

We got legacy Soundwave we are getting Ss86... Rumble... If Hasbro does Hasbro stuff he won't fit in WFC. He will fit in the yet to be ss86 Soundwave... Who will be likely a Retool of Netflix In black to match his cartoon appearance.

 

SS86 is pretty much WFC. According to the reputable leakers, they were originally meant to be a part of WFC, before accommodating the Beast Wars characters. Hasbro has even released WFC figures into the Studio Series line, such as Cliffjumper and Starscream.

 

I hope he's compatible. I'll still buy every Soundwave they release

 

They have an established cassette system right now that is pretty close to what we actually need for a cassette system. Why make it different when you'd need to keep them the same size for scale anyway? That doesn't make much sense to me.

 

No. No. No Core Class G1 Ratchet. Deluxe Class. DELUXE CLASS G1 Ratchet HASBRO!!!

 

Reveal the Shield the toyline was available in the US, though mostly at discounters.

Reveal the Shield Demolition Rumble specifically wasn't released anywhere in the world.

 

I have bad news for you. The next Studio Series G1 Ratchet is Voyager. Deluxe was skipped over entirely. I'm sorry.

 

I'm more than certain it will.

We're getting a Voyager in SS86, but it's still going to be in-scale.

 

Rumble’s a dick, Frenzy’s an arsehole.

 

Who you callin' uncrasi-matic!?

 

I\'m curius how will Frenzy (i\'m sorry Frenzy is the blue one for me) work, like is there a 86 Soundwave soon? Or will it just transform into a brick that can\'t fit in any cassete mens? I\'m not sure, it\'s too big for the wfc Soundwaves, and too small/big for a MP (i don\'t know how big the MP is) is it like the MMC one, i hope if he ain\'t compatible he transform into something else, cause there\'s no point for him to transform into a tape anymore without a Soundwave, and with the core price they should make a intersting transformation if not, i\'ll just stick with my gen select one.

 

Plus Blaster/Eject are obviously Legacy toys (even if they did see initial release in Kingdom), and intended to be compatible with WfC/Netflix Soundwave (Legacy SW re-release coming just to rival Blaster) and his minions. They are just starting on Blaster's buddies, I figure Steeljaw and Ramhorn will pop up before we know it. So 86 Rumble will probably work with this group, the piledrivers and guns probably won't store on the main body in cassette mode but it will be enough stuff to justify Core price.
