    It has also been found that the other missing Second Season episode (Chief Woodrow) is being aired in America on January 18th, before those four episodes in the post above are shown.

    Details of Episodes 16 & 17 are out, suggesting the introduction of High Tide, and the last appearance of Dr Morocco... but ever since Tim Curry stopped voicing the character, it hasn't been as exciting to listen out for his appearance.

    Rescue Bots Season 3 episode 16 Turning the Tide
    An old friend of Optimus arrives to train the Bots in ocean rescues.

    S3 E17 The Last of Morocco
    Dr. Morocco's best friend, famous writer Jules Verne, travels through time to find him.

    The next episode also appears to deal with the new recruits (Salvage, Blurr, High Tide).

    S3 EP18 The New Recruits
    Rescue Bots find they have new recruits to train, but these newbies are hiding a dark secret.

    More news featuring the new recruits on the cartoon...

    The next episode continues to focus on Salvage and Blurr, while a promo clip has been released by Hasbro showing us High Tide transforming (the red boat is Heatwave).

    Season 3 episode 19 Rescue Bots Academy
    Cody and the Rescue Bots must teach Blurr and Salvage everything they need to know.
    A shame about the High Tide character having a multi-step transformation, as Rescue Bots toys aren't more than a single step, which means we are never likely to get a toy to match the cartoon. The upcoming High Tide toy has the cartoon alt-mode be a static playset, while the converting High Tide toy that comes with the playset is a (one-step) small blue boat that doesn't look anything like High Tide in the cartoon in either mode.
    There will however be a non-converting figurine of High Tide that has the robot mode from the cartoon... but will be waaay out of scale with the other figurines, if you look at the boxed toy artwork or the cartoon.

    Episode 16 of Rescue Bots (Turning the Tide) is apparently on this weekend in America, and Gen1 voice Actor Michael Bell has announced his involvement... likely to be the voice of High Tide.

    Joining the new Bots in the cartoon soon is a Robot Dog called Servo. I'd imagine that a toy would show up eventually, as it isn't a transforming toy.

    I just came across this news posting from July last year that mentioned Michael Bell joining Rescue Bots, so it looks like the episodes being screened now were recorded nine months ago.
