While browsing thorough the official Hasbro Transformers Website, we’ve stumbled across a placeholder page for their upcoming Transformers: Robots In Disguise Combiner Force figures.
Unfortunately, the image included is a regular Blizzard Strike Sideswipe. But the product description is new compared to the original figure which was released few months ago. It was noted that the new description explains the fact that Combiner Force figure Scan Codes unlock Tokens on the updated Mobile Game rather than temporary characters. The player can then use the tokens to permanently unlock random characters.
Product Description:
Experience the excitement of instant conversion with figures that change between modes in 1 step. Convert this 1-Step Changer Blizzard Strike Sideswipe figure from robot to sports car in 1 super awesome, flip-switch motion. Imagine charging into battle in the blink of an eye with Transformers: Robots in Disguise Combiner Force 1-Step Changer figures. Scan the Autobot shield on this Sideswipe figure to unlock a token in the mobile app (see below for app details).
Sideswipe won’t stop until he’s thrown down and trash-talked every Decepticon back to Cybertron. Always hot on the Decepticon trail, the Autobot has special camouflage to stay hidden until he makes his move and attacks. And for any Decepticon who doubts his skill, prepare to get sniped and swiped!

No not Australian, I'm in Belgium. And my claim wasnt completely accurate: CW limbs are the same price as TR voyagers. TR deluxes are actually a bit cheaper than Warriors and CW voyagers are twice the price of TR deluxes.
But like i said: i remember CW limbs being cheaper when the line started, the voyagers where always that expensive though.
Lord Dcast
An Australian too? Yeah…the lack of Generations was a thing…don't know why but it was a thing…
Windsweeper II
Hey, i'm just glad we are getting CW and now TR toys in the shop. Before CW we only got movie toys and Prime toys. And ironically if i want them at a decent price i can easily get them at e-tail.
Lord Dcast
Guess things are a little different in Australia. I've heard of price fluctuations but that sounds ridiculous.
I'm just glad that the Generations and Movieverse lines have been the same price for a decade; $25. Always $25.
Same for Voyagers and Leaders.
Afterburner
Seriously, what?
Windsweeper II
Over here cw limbs cost almost as much as a voyager in the shops, while half a year ago they where the price a warrior is today.
T-Hybrid
The problem with RiD doing a combiner team is they currently don\'t have a true Voyager class. So it\'s possible they comes up with something else and sell it as a boxed set…
SilverOptimus
Good catch, Nevermore. This could be the case.
Nevermore
I assume the ongoing assortments (Legion Class, One-Step Changers, Warrior Class) will have packaging variants for some figures under the "Combiner Force" subline imprint branding, just like there were old RID figures re-released in "Mini-Con Weaponizers" packaging.
Examples:
Lord Dcast
We could've had at least some Minicon compatibility (maybe some pegs on the deluxe's arms at least), but we didn't even get that.
And whilst I'm on the subject, can Hasbro stop charging an extra five bucks for Warrior Class figures? I get that CN takes a cut, but they have even less plastic quantity than a CW limb!
Hanzkaz
Yeah, same here. I'm not really a fan of the super simplified TFs.
Lord Dcast
Yes, but will there be a new Deluxe-scale Gestalt?! I heard there was a new Decepticon Combiner here, and I don't want it to be shoved onto the simpler style only. I want a full Gestalt.
