TFW2005 boards member Fasttrack has informed us that the Robots in Disguise game app has once again been updated, adding in some more characters to the mix. These include…
• Power Surge Optimus Prime
• Warrior Power Surge Optimus Prime
• Warrior Power Surge Elite Optimus Prime
• Desert Optimus Prime
• Pumpkin Optimus Prime
• Switchblade Night Bumblebee
• Power Hero Bumblebee
• Power Hero Surge Bumblebee
• Power Hero Sideswipe
• Battlepack Alpine Sideswipe
• Stealth Windstrike
• Warrior Windblade
• Legion Ratchet
• One-Step Ratchet
• Warrior Ratchet
• Warrior Scorponok
• Legion Bisk
• One-Step Bisk
• Warrior Bisk
• Hero Bisk
• Warrior Paralon
• Warrior Scatterspike
A few these had already been shown not too long ago at New York Toy Fair. However, the big reveals here are some of the new Warrior class figures, including Decepticons Paralon and Scatterspike. Ratchet is also getting a Warrior toy – and in fact pops up a few times on this list, leading to increased suspicion that he may indeed be appearing in the show. And last but not least, it appears that fan-favorite RID Decepticon Bisk will finally be getting his very own Warrior figure!
Check it out, and sound off on what you think of these reveals after the jump!

The hell is Bisk doing as a Hero class?! What's that all about? is he switching sides in the mobile game?

Scatterspike has no face just jawa eyes?

Warrior Quillfire has been available from various online retailers for a few months now.
As far as US brick and mortar retail goes, it's currently the slow season of the year.
Also, please keep in mind that Hasbro Transformers toys typically don't have a "street date". They come out when they're ready to ship and retailers put them on the shelves.

Warrior Ratchet in the game is just a red/white Strongarm in both modes (with a black chest). This could mean that the Warrior Ratchet toy will be a redeco of the Strongarm toy (like the Legion was), or the game is just using the Strongarm rendering to save generating a new one for Ratchet (if it is a new toy).
As such I didn't do a collage of its appearance in the game.
I also didn't do any more other than the three winged Optimus toys, which are below.
I thought of doing the different Bisks, but since the car mode is identical for all five, who's going to care how the rough animation in the game looks for the robot mode, as it won't give an exact look at the engineering of the different toys.
Power Surge Optimus (the new big toy that comes with the Aerobot Minicon).
Don't expect the truck mode of the actual toy to look anything like the one in the game, as the game recycles alt-modes – sometimes ones that have completely different colors to the toy.
Warrior Optimus Prime (Power Surge remold)
Warrior Optimus Prime Elite (Power Surge remold)
And the Minicon Windstrike, who might be a single pack release, as the blue version was in the Blizzard Sideswipe Battle Pack 2-pack.

I would love to see what warrior Ratchet looks like in gameplay and Bisk has wheels… He must be scanning an earth mode soon.

I'm not feeling Scatterspike. Paralon I might get….though what kind of name is that?

Still waiting for Quillfire to come out though. Anyone know the release date?

Some more images from the latest update to the RID game app.
(I have a few more images left to process, but won't have them done for another day or two)
The collection of head shots from the game's character select screen.
The twenty new additions to the game's character select screen.
On the toy scan checklist screens, these are the pages that had new additions from the 19 new toys (note that there was one "Starter" game character, which isn't a toy, so doesn't get added to this section of the App).
Yellow ones were there before the latest update, white ones are the new toys.

And some in-game images of the new additions, in both modes.
Scorponok and Paralon. Paralon has a different head to Scorponok, which looks exactly like the Beast Wars Scorponok head.
Warrior Bisk.
Scatterspike.
Some of the rest will be posted up later, but the alt-modes of the rest of the new additions recycle existing alt-modes, in different colors.

Not sure if the apple version got another update, but the android version did in the last 24 hours, possibly to fix the glitch mine was suffering from… and it was noted as version 1.6.1 (the update in the first post from the other day was 1.5.2).

Want Pumpkin Prime cos its so ridiculous

I'm fine with the repaints as long as we get some new molds afterwards.
Hell, I'm fine with remolds as well considering how extensive they've been done lately.

Unicron is easy to find. And at the same price or cheaper than what he originally went for.
DOTM Leadfoot is a pain. I'm glad I got mine for $30 way back when.
Breakdown… I had an extra I had a hard time getting rid of at cost back in the day. Odd how things change. I love that mold.
Prime135
Nah, ratchet isn't rare and expensive…breakdown is rare and expensive, and I shal forever regret not getting he, Unicron, and DOTM leadfoot when I had the chance!

I feel like Hasbro just went "You want Bisk? HERE'S YOUR BISK!"
I mean, that's a lot of Bisk.
Also, yay for Warrior Ratchet! Show appearance pretty much confirmed.
Kinda sad that Paralon and Scatterspike are just repaints. I'd prefer new mold 'Cons.
Autovolt 127
Warrior Bisk….yup sold.
This definitely confirms Ratchet's appearing at some point.
Thundershot
Again, he IS?
*checks ebay*
Huh. I've seen worse. I have a Prime Ratchet on card somewhere.
Lady Slipstream
He is rare and expensive??
Edit: This was my post 500…but not now
Gepard
He is? Shoot, I've got one and I hate him. I think he's in a box somewhere. Anybody want to buy him?
Rodimus Prime
Repaints in Disguise!
Golobulus
Why not just buy Prime Ratchet? because he's rare and expensive now
