Hyper Surge Starscream, Weaponizer Sideswipe, Bisk and Ratchet. Pics care of Snakas:

???????????????? - ????????????????10???????????

 

Mmmmmmm, Bisk.

 

Bisk sure does look good . ...... I have had my heart set on Mr spider combiner himself `` Chop Shop `` , Now that would be an epic figure to have   http://67.media.tumblr.com/d6ba69648a505b754eb3718cf12c5ffd/tumblr_inline_nkkj6dsg8s1s84vu7.jpg

 

Observation: That jet mode looks like a dead ringer for CW/UW Cyclonus. Why did we never see a Starscream in CW?!

Question: Where does the red topper in Ratchet's alt mode go when he transforms?

 

Gotta be folded around on his back I reckon. I can't wait til October anyway. I wish they'd release the Hasbro one so I can throw some money at it.

 

Looks like it folds into his back. Similar to his mold-mate, Strongarm.

 

bisk may just be the best figure of this line. that looks DOPE.

 

It's inside his legs.

 

I agree, you can see it over his shoulders.

 

I saw that hypersurge starscream today at toysrus along with the hypersurge optimus. He has a voice box that's activated when u push his head down. I'll take a pic tomorrow

 

Haven't even seen a single episode of the show, but I really really want that Bisk haha.

 

I've only seen S1 on Netflix, but Bisk is literally in Episode 1!   You maybe have to watch 1 or 2 episodes into the show (and then he's gone for the rest of S1). Definitely one of the coolest new TF characters!

I just hate his alt mode (which isn't featured on the show).   Does every TF have to turn into a sports car??? I think Bisk should have been a garbage truck or pick up truck.  

 

Had to directly compare the US and JP Ratchet figures to see the differences, cause it still looked like the JP lacked paint. Even so, it's still more than the US one. So I'll be getting the TAV version and hoping for a pretty kickass Reprolabels set.

 

Is anybody else intending to use this Ratchet as MTMTE Ratchet? Alex Milne performed a re-design for

Spoiler

his reappearance in the Dying of the Light

, seen below.

Sourced from his twitter. He explicitly says it takes design elements of Prime, and I guess by extension, Robots in Disguise. Excepts he has a nose.

 

Bisk looks awesome. And love Ratchet, great colors. Does he have guns, or some medical equipment like Animated Cybertron mode Ratchet?
And yes, he is heavily based on the IDW redesign instead of the Prime model - I don't mind as I really hated the Prime toy.

He was, twice, but it's barely visible. Once in his first appearance in S1E02, the other time is when Steeljaw frees him in Season 2 and he transforms with the rest of the freed Cons.

 

I find it weird that with the Minicon two-pack releases, they re-released them in those Supreme Armor sets (TAV44-45) where the minicons and the plastic armor bits were different from the previous releases (TAV40-43), but the Scoutish figures themselves weren't different at all...yet with this Hayate Armor Sideswipe, we finally get a different release in clear plastic, even when they could've just gone with Red Alertish colors like Hasbro did on their redeco.

Don't get me wrong, this clear Sideswipe looks sharp, but we should've gotten this or something like it (metallic painted versions, a la United/Takara Animated?) as part of those Supreme Armor sets.

I did miss out on Bisk when AmiAmi put it up earlier tonight, so hopefully I can catch it when it reopens later on.

 

100% yes. I don't watch RID but am really stoked about this release to add to my MTMTE toy collection.

 

Bisk looks amazing. Aside from the ugly sticker that is.

Screamers' wings look like a cape to me though. Can't shake off that ruler vibe.

 

Yeah, I usually don't mix NuRID figures with Generations but for this one I'll do an exception.

 

Hate that I missed Bisk and Ratchet on HLJ.

I am surprised that Takara did not add any additional paint to Ratchet's vehicle mode, but the robot mode looks great.

I'll settle for the Hasbro releases of both and have the paint and Reprolabels ready for Ratchet.
