RtS Demolition Rumble & Deep Dive bio and pics

[Lord_Zed]

So maybe Rumble is blue now, but if so lets not forget Octane is Tankor too now, Hasbro and IDW say so!

That makes it sound like you won't be happy until Transformers fans are tearing into each other with their bare hands in the streets.

...Actually that'd be a sight to see.

P.s. Rumble is blue. Rumble. Is. Blue.

Demolition Rumble IS Blue, but G1 Rumble is Red.

But sure with the Tankor debacle, and that proposed TF named Spastic, seems like Hasbro love to stir controversy with TF names.

This is why I don't read tech specs anymore, lies lies all lies!!!!!!!!

Someone in the Hasbro offices has a lot of unsubstantiated fantasies while writing bios..

Deep Dive is an Autobot. (damn these RtS figures for not having easy to see allegiances or painted ones on the toys)

It's also been noted that the Autobots are massively outnumbering the Decepticons in RtS.

Umm, they're printed on the box Griff

Not on the front. We rarely get to see the back of packaging before they get released to stores, hence the 'easy to see' bit.
When I'm posting news or adding to the checklist, I'd like to know the allegiance as soon as possible. Something we don't get now with RtS toys until a long time after we first find out about them (or see a pre-production figure with the sticker/painted symbol on it).

Fair enough.

On a side note, have there been any further announcements of further RTS waves (Deluxe & Voyager) past the current one (Wreck Gar, Perceptor, Deep Dive, et al)?

We might get some of those retooled head redecos as one more wave before the TF3 toys hit (with time for the stores to clear shelves before the movie stock arrives). Then we'll probably have a hiatus until after the Movie 'season' is passed.
