    Okay, since we're getting a Warrior Rescue Bots Blurr in RID, how would you guys feel about getting more Rescue Bots characters with articulation, and if you want them, which ones do you want the most? Personally, I want Blades the most. He seems to be the fan favorite, and "traditional" helicopters are uncommon in TF toylines compared to other flying machines such as jets. High Tide would also be neat since aquatic vehicles are incredibly rare in TF toylines, despite the fact RID has two different submarine Decepticons.

    Well, Quickshadow might make a interesting "Updated" figure. Considering she has quite a classy altmode, and can be more show accurate. And i can see her traveling around the world after Rescue Bots.
    Plus she's i can see her and Strongarm in an episode.

    Also my favorite "B-Team" rescue bot member, Salvage would be kinda cool in R.I.D Too. I mean, he can make weapons out of alot of stuff to stop some decepticons or help out Fixit in an episode.

    Would be nice to see a crossover episode since it's been done in Rescue bots numerous times. The one with Sideswipe was fun to watch.

    Wouldn't it be nice to see High Tide in RID? Seeing him actually beat up Decepticons.

    That would be interesting. I can't help but picture him tracking down Hammerstrike, Clampdown and so on.

    Warrior Quickshadow. I can see this.
    Yes a Warrior and an Activator Combiner with Servo.

    I'd certainly be fine with them showing up. It's about time the show acknowledges the growing Cybertronian/human interactions in this universe. Currenlty, the show's still acting like the Bee Team are the only Autobots on Earth, and the Clays are the only ones who know about Autobots, even though we know from Prime and RB that at least the US and Chinese Governments know of the 'Bots, and that each country has an entire city that knows of them, and works with Rescue Bot teams. Plus, there's Jack, Miko, Raf and June.

    Honestly, Quickshadow is more bad ass than any Autobot in RID15, and I'd love to see how she'd fair against a Decepticon. I also think the idea of Salvage helping out could be cool, but I don't think he'd handle combat well, and if he just stays at the scrapyard, he might as well just be another Fixit.

    They could always use High Tide as an excuse to revive the concept they had for TFP Sea Spray - an old sea dog who terrifies Decepticons by blowing a whistle before he attacks them.

    I just want a decent High Tide toy. Plus, maybe we could get a glimpse of Blades leading Quickshadow and High Tide in China? Whatever the case, Quickshadow and High Tide are a must for RID. Salvage would be interesting though.

    I never watched much of Rescue Bots but i'd appreciate more of those characters appearing in RID.

    Any will do.

    Seeing Heatwave would be interesting. I remember reading some tweets by D.C. Douglas and Constance Zimmer about if their characters met.

    I'd like to see more of them show up as time goes on. With multiple cartoons in this same continuity, characters from RID2015 showing up in Rescue Bots, and more references to Prime in the TV event, I think we may be getting to see these Transformers cartoons sort of blending together into one larger universe.

    It looks that way. Hopefully Rescue bots will get a 5th season. It's the longest running transformers series around.

    I'm glad the the Rescue Bots didn't end up appearing in Prime, since I don't think that they would've fit in very well in that show. But I think the RB could fit in quite nicely in RID. I'd be all for it.

    Probably not but if you look at some of the episodes where Optimus or Bumblebee weren't in it the entire time, it might've been because they were with the Rescue bots. Like in the episode with Nemesis Prime, Optimus mentioned being underground, which meant he was likely talking about the Rescue bots episode 'What lies beneath' if I'm not mistaken.

    I'm sure we'll get Rescue Bots crossing over into RID. They crossovered RiD into Rescue Bots.

    I am curious to see Heatwave and how he'll look in RiD. The Bee team could really use him especially that episode where Bee and Grimlock had to save people in that forest fire against Crazy bolt.
