Moving right along, site sponsor Robot Kingdom has updated with a stock photo collage of the Robots in Disguise Mini-Cons Wave 5. TFW member Nevermore does a good job summing up the wave:
• Slipstream (redeco of the new “weapon” Slipstream sculpt available as part of the second Mini-Con 4-Pack that’s currently available in Hong Kong)
• Lord Doomitron (new sculpt, originally revealed during New York Comic-Con under the name “Blu”)
• Bashbreaker (new sculpt)
• Tricerashot (new sculpt)
Take a look and be sure to get your preorders in if you’re interested. These are slated for release sometime this month.

Minicons that actually turn into something again?
My word.

What REALLY happened to Shockwave and Whirl!
IgnikaMarcus
Great, now I need Bashbreaker in addition to Windstrike.
FanimusMaximus
Target Master Minicons?
Finally, they return!
MrSoundmeister
Those would be some hot lenses.
Or it could be a Jetpack. Actually that would work too.
Shark Jumper
Is that a pair of flamethrower Binoculars?
Robogeek28
Yup, me too.
Dawnbreaker128
This is nice and all but…where's Torpor and Clout? Those Airazor and Bludgeon looking dudes?

This is how the minicons should of been the first time, more of these arms micron like mini cons. Not the torpedo/disk/ball that could only work with the deployer figure.
QLRformer
Doomitron?
Powerglide1991
Might actually pick these up as these minicons will have used outside of the deployers.
But yeh Lord doomitron is an absolute must, can't wait to get him!
Fasttrack
Wave 4 is a repaint wave
Glacius from Swelter
Ransack from Backtrack
And Scorch Strike Slipstrean
Then comes this wave. Which looks awesome. I've wanted Lord Doomitron since he was being called Blu
Obsidian X
I havn't botherd with RID. Been tempted by a few warrior class toys but stayed clear so far .. but Tricerashot! I think I need him, Triceratops were always my favourite dinosaur. I hope this doesn't turn into a slippery slope and all of a sudden I am collecting RID hardcore, I've been down that road before.
BB Shockwave
Wait, Wave 5? What is Wave 4? I thought we only saw 3 waves so far – the latest is Swelter/Arctic Slipstream/Back or Forth/Hammer.
Pity, doesn't seem like these guys come with anything for combining.
Odd that Doomitron has the same colors as BLudgeon, but at least he will make awesome fist weapons for Cloud Brawn.
Jalaguy
That's including the 2015 waves. This is the third 2016 wave.
HARD RAINBOW
Can't wait to get my greedy little hands on them. Weapon mini-cons are one of my favorite things.
optimusmegas

Nevermore
