I don’t keep up with the rescue bots type stuff as much so these may already be known. So apologies if so.

Yes even though these are rescue bots type toys, hasbro lists them under generations in their product description.

I know these are aimed at younger kids, but that monster truck/tow truck alt mode for Prime actually looks pretty sick! I've been thinking there should be an official monster truck Transformer, even if the wheels would make it an engineering nightmare, and this just furthers my desire for that  

 

Why does Rescue Bots always have these cool re-imaginings? I wish we could get some of these designs as more quality figures.

 

Because adults just can't handle chan- I mean converting.

 

There was a monster truck in Power Core Combiners, Mudslinger. That mold was used 3 times. There were also a few uses of a Mini-Con monster truck as well.

 

Yeah but those were all Legends figure that even compared to todays deluxes are small.

 

I have the Bumblebee's initial release, see no changes there. Dunno about Optimus.

 

Can someone Photoshop Optimus in G1 Mudslinger’s colors? I think he might look good in them.

 

I just remembered Cybertron Dirt Boss, he was a deluxe. I don't think he was prominent enough to get a new Legacy figure though.



I'll be keeping an eye out for that Optimus. I saw the original release once at Kroger but passed and missed out on it.
