This came up on my Twitter feed thanks to Hursticon and I had to share!

More info to come?!?

Sometimes this account posts really good customs, but this doesn't look like a custom to me.

And I can't quite make out what toy Blades is...

[Sky Shadow]

Wow - very interesting indeed.


And I can't quite make out what toy Blades is...

Me neither - is it Legion Airachnid? Oh - it's Deluxe ROTF Evac/Tailwhip.

revenge of the fallen blazemaster?

[Perceptor]

Blades is a redeco of ROTF evac I think I read

[Firestorm]

And I can't quite make out what toy Blades is...

Looks like ROTF Evac/Blazemaster to me, which makes me really hope/believe this is fake

[Lint]

revenge of the fallen blazemaster?

Yep I think so

Pretty uninspired redecos and scaling for the five of them, colour me uninterested

[Sky Shadow]

Surely it's too elaborate and weird to fake - why bother?

[i_amtrunks]

That is an interesting mix of Beast hunters and Classics toys. No idea who Blades is, too bad they cannot rejig the FoC Vortex mold. I hope it isn't Blazemaster (or whatever the TV chopper from the movie lines was called) as that was a terrible toy!

I'm liking the Guard City red Hot Spot. Groove on the other hand, if that is the final product, looks like he drew the short straw

[Paulbot]

Groove's vehicle mode is to scale! I kind of like that. And an Inferno coloured Grapple... I also like that.

The decos on First Aid and Streetsmart aren't great, but do seem realistic for something Hasbro would do compared to what a fan would do.

And if you can't use the name Streetwise, Streetsmart is a far better choice than Streetstar.

[Bidoofdude]

What's with all the blue?

[Omega Metro]

This WAS looking promising until I saw Blazemaster.:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
The worst Transformer toy of all time! I burnt mine in the microwave a few years back and it was great.

[tinyJazz]

Tailwhip was better. :D

I like how the ambulance is the one arriving on scene with knives out.

I thought Streetstar sounded cute though. :I Not very good for a cop I guess.

Probably to make up for Hot Spot taking all the red? These decos don't look particularly interesting though.

[griffin]

Protectobots? None seem to be in Gen1 colours.

They look like two 2-packs, with Legion sized Groove offsetting the Voyager in the other pack.

From the leaked Hasbro database....

I saw the title and thought "Wow yea I gotta see this!!!" and then became utterly disappointed when I did. I don't really like the Prime mold aesthetics. The colours don't look good either. Easy pass for me.

Oh geez :eek: That poor bot :p

Which could also explain the big red fire Engine, but i still prefer thinking it was Guard Cityinspired :D ;)

Well that's kind of disappointing. I'll pass. The only one that looks remotely well-coloured for me is Streetwise.

[MayzaPrime]

I would like to get First Aid and Streetwise (smart) and display them with my TF Prime figures :D

I like the Red Hot Spot, but my GDO Hot Spot will do the job.

Blades is ok, the Blazemaster/Evac figure has an awesome vehicle mode but the bot mod is a let down.

Groove is just a poor effort :(
