Amazon has updated their listing for the upcoming book Transformers: Robots in Disguise: Where Crown City Comes To Life.
The listing now contains the cover page as well as a link to download the app associated with the content. The app in question is an Augmented Reality app where the kids (and adults) can interact with the robots from the TV Show.
“Watch Transformers come to life as never before! Not only will fans find out who’s who in the all-action world of Crown City, they can then bring their favorite Autobots and Decepticons to life with incredible 3D augmented-reality animations—and interact with them on their smartphones and tablets.

- Switch to lifesize mode and watch your favorite Transformer grow to real size, right there in your backyard. Then take photos of the moment and share them with your friends and family!
- In dual-user mode, connect your device to a friend’s, and battle Underbite against an Autobot of your choice!

Sorry, I hijacka threads like this a lot sometimes, it's that rid is lame in my opinion and I was just angry at that the time when i wrote that post. I respect your guy's opinions, it's that I think rid is meh.

"Hasbro only focuses on new stuff"
There was an amazing game last year that was part of G1 (in a way), we're getting bloody headmasters who are G1 only outside a few stragglers, and there's the comics, and Masterpiece lines.
Oh yeah and a bunch of mobile games probably, and another one next year.

So it was, my bad there.
The toyline with a currently airing cartoon always gets a bit more attention and as a result tie-ins and ancillary media like this app to promote it, but to say that RID'15 is the only thing Transformers related that Hasbro focuses on is patently untrue just because they haven't made a G1-based version of some augmented reality app.
Also, by "GEEWUNNER stereotype" I meant the way you went into a thread that has absolutely nothing to do with G1 just to essentially say "screw the new stuff, it should be about G1".

Not even close to being true.
He was talking about you, unless you meant that as your exit line.

It's that everything hasbro does for now on is robots in disquise, also the g1 stereotype is already gone. I'm really happy with all the toys 3rd party and takara are throwing at us, and i was saying that hasbro should give the older fans a bit more fun that what the kids have.

It actually got bumped to front page.

Why did this guy zombie a thread about a kids' app just to prove that the GEEWUNNER stereotype really does continue to Be A Thing?
jackgaughan
Yeah Hasbro stop taking the franchise to new and exciting places and cater to this guy, and only this guy!
The Smirker
No, it\'s CRYSTAL CITY comes to life hasbro, replace this with g1, and I\'m good.
