Not sure if this is news but I haven't seen many of these reported anywhere yet: Transformers Rescue Bots and Hero Mashers at BigBadToyStore Among other things, new images for: Transformers Rescue Bots Dinobot Mini Series 01 - Chase http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=HAS23927&mode=retail Transformers Rescue Bots Dinobot Mini Series 01 - Boulder http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=HAS23926&mode=retail (previously we've only seen Heatwave and Blades I believe) Transformers Rescue Bots Rescan Series 03 - Blades (as an utterly adorable little fighter jet!) http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=HAS23923&mode=retail Transformers Rescue Bots Rescan Series 03 - Bumblebee (transforms into a dino alt mode) http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=HAS23924&mode=retail Also a bunch of Hero Mashers that I don't think have been reported yet, including Strafe, Slug, Soundwave, and others. They all look pretty decent. http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=HAS23933&mode=retail http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=HAS23935&mode=retail http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=HAS23932&mode=retail Mods please merge or delete if this is news already but I did search and didn't see them yet. EDIT: To be fair I just noticed that Lbsammills51 reported these in the BBTS thread in the Toy Discussion forum, might have been overlooked:
I'm never sure what to make of the Masher versions of the Dinobots and their G1-movie mixed aesthetic.
Also found a few of these new Rescue Bots listed on Hasbro.com: Playskool Transformers Rescue Bots Chase the Rescue Dinobot Figure | Infant & Preschool Toys for ages AGES 3-7 | Hasbro Playskool Transformers Rescue Bots Boulder the Rescue Dinobot Figure | Infant & Preschool Toys for ages AGES 3-7 | Hasbro Playskool Heroes Transformers Rescue Bots Heatwave the Rescue Dinobot Figure | Infant & Preschool Toys for ages 3 - 7 YEARS | Hasbro
The lack of paint apps is really sucky...almost just a blue or green blob (HW and Blades were just as bad). Hope they make nicer figures of these, the ideas are really cool.
What's odd is still that the one figure is the one that gets shorted the paint, the other ones at least have something else on them. Still wish we could get G1/generations style versions of the Rescue Bots it would be fantastic.
I bought those little dinobot Heatwave and Blades figures for my toddler. She loves them and I was pretty impressed by them, the plastic is solid and they are fun little packages. She loves dinosaurs so I'll probably pick up the other two. I'm more interested in that adorable Blades fighter jet though.
I have to admit, that is pure cuteness! I can just imagine Blades too as a jet..."Don't I have a slow setting?!" And I agree with Jestermon...I'd love some RB toys in that style!
The jetfighter should be the slightly larger size (Like Monster Truck Prime) - I wonder if he has a wave mate ?
I think his wave mate is this Bumblebee dinobot thing: Transformers Rescue Bots Rescan Series 03 - Bumblebee - Transformers 2010 - 2014 Transformers Playskool Rescue Bots At least, 'Bee and Blades are included in this Wave 3 assortment with Optimus and Heatwave: Transformers Rescue Bots Rescan Series 03 - Set of 4 - Transformers 2010 - 2014 Transformers Playskool Rescue Bots
Agreed , my boy would love that! As he doesn't really like the current rescue bot toys but loves the show
