New TF Classics Mini-Cons - including beasts!

Post by BB Shockwave » Thu Aug 17, 2006 7:41 pm

Yep - though before anyone complains, I bet these were supposed to be released under Cyberton like the Giant Planet Team. Hasbro did keep them under a tight lock - we have news of three teams, and three more robots that are possibly in three more teams... Gah, there goes my lunch money. :)

The Autobot Dinobots:

Bio: "We fight where others fear to go." Adventurers through and through, no environment is too inhospitable for the DINOBOTS. In fact, these three tough (robots) are more at home in the thickest, most poisonous jungles of the galaxy than they are in the comfortable machine cities of CYBERTRON. When a mission requires animal instincts, sore feet, and a laser-proof hide, the DINOBOTS are the ones to call.

Knockdown (Triceratops)
Swoop (Pteranodon)
Terrorsaur (T-Rex)

The Decepticon Demolition Team:

Bio: "We play dirty." If it can be built, the Demolition TEam can bring it down. Every member of the team is an expert engineer, specializing in weakening and destroying the foundations of any structure they encounter. Before any important battles, you'll find the Demolition Team on site, tunneling beneath enemy (fortifications). Entire AUTOBOT cities have collapsed in a thunderous cloud of dust because of the work of these three.

Sledge (excavator)
Wideload (dump truck - looks just like E. Demolishor!)
Broadside (tank - reminds me of Super Gobot Destroyer)

The Autobot Night Rescue Team:

Bio: "We bring light to the darkness." Young and brave, these robots are (???) out of primary programming, and too inexperienced to ever be afraid. Where there are other robots in danger, and nothing will save them except a foolish charge into the dangerous and unknown, it's always the Night Rescue Team that gets called in.

Firebot (just like the old Armada one)
Strongarm (police car this one really reminds me of a Gobot)
Divebomb (copter - with a rotorhead...)

Now, there are more pics, firstly some of these above ones:

Terrorsaur:

Strongarm - even if he's a Bot, notice the Runabout head...

Knockdown - I can already tell you, in 10 years I'll be picking up Knockdowns on the flea market with broken off robot legs... That leg design will be prone to braking, but cool looking.

Unknown Jet Autobot:

http://www.tfans.com/talk/index.php?s=d ... t&id=28783

Much better looking then ANY of the old jet MInicons... the jet mode oddly reminds me of Raindance, and the transfomation is very new and interesting.

Now the best - a RED DRAGON Mini-Con!!! 8)

http://www.tfans.com/talk/index.php?s=d ... t&id=28778

http://www.tfans.com/talk/index.php?s=d ... t&id=28779

Transformation is similar to a BW TM2 Megs's, but all in all, I wonder if he's a Con... there seems to be a symbol on his wing, can't make it out. I wonder if he's in a team, the rest are also mythical creatures too... :)

Unknown biker Con guy - I can tell you, those windows will have paint wear soon since they are the feet as well.

Pretty cool, although the only ones I would think of getting would be the Dinobots, but considering they're wonky colors, and WST Dinos are around as well......
