Via Autobase Aichi, we have an image of some upcoming Robots in Disguise Combiner Force Crash Combiner releases in their packaging, including the awesome looking (and named) Decepticon redeco of Skyhammer, Shocknado! Shocknado’s components are named Shockdrive and Warnado, which are crazy enough names to be cool (and also a change to the working names of Shockwave and Tornado reported at the Australian Toy Fair).
Also on show are in-package images of the Lunar Force redeco of Crash Combiner Primestrong (Optimus Prime and Strongarm), which is a very blue set, with a “Lunar Force” branding in the top right of the card suggesting a subline within this subline. These were previously seen at the Australian Toy Fair, along with the third set on show here who we’ve seen a bit of before, Dragbreak (Dragstrip and Wildbreak).
Check out all of the images attached to this post.

So then, Warnado is Cyclonus\' Armada?

Kinda odd how not only does Wildbreak have Dragstrip\'s alt mode, but Dragbreak is \'up-side-down\' compared to how he is in the show. Even more odd when one considers that both problems could be solved by switching the color schemes between the two…

Any Jojo fans think this new guy has a cool name.
I mean….

Skyhammer was disappointing, so I will probably skip the purple repaint.
The problem, AGAIN, is the stupid springs. Skyhammer has a hard time not springing his upper torso into combined mode (toy doesn't like to stay closed). It's really obnoxious and completely symptomatic of the generally poor Hasbro design with these 1-steps.
I'm not against simplifying toys for kids; I think it's a great idea! But adding all these obnoxious springs? It breaks an otherwise cool toy. I've never looked at a simple G1 toy and thought, "Gee… this is nice… but boy I wish it had springs to auto transform it constantly, especially when I don't want it to transform! "

I thought that aswell.

Anyone remember Warnado being the name of one of the first generation Skylanders? Guess Activision lost/gave up the trademark.

we're both wrong! nuts to me! these are galvatron's specialized armymen, the PURPLESHOCKS!!!
MrSoundmeister
Warnado. Looks like Hasbro is unleashing more of their Hardcore Pun Names again, don't you love it?
Sweeps? They are His/The Armada! Sweeps are Scourge's thing, remember?
Applejacktimus
I bet he's British.
marvel b
yet another seems likely!
Purple Heart
Oh wow those names.
T-Hybrid
According to TFWiki the drones for Galvatronus are: Cyberwarp, Skyjack, Treadshock, and Riotgear.
So either the names have changed or there's yet *another* combiner coming.
marvel b
cyclonus is already getting a figure ultrabee style for galvatronus. i'm thinking that all these guys are sweeps with actual names!!!!
T-Hybrid
These are just repaints of the Skyhammer set, right?

Shockdrive & Tornado…
What is the hidden hint of Galvatron and Cyclonus?

I wonder if Shockdrive has any relation to Shockwave then.
I wonder what Lunar Force is about.
Shocknado's is awesome. Those animation models intrigue me. The lunar force recolor is fantastic and Dragbreak looks cool, though the v-modes are inaccurate.
The Combiner Force sublime continues to deliver masterpiece figures from all size classes/assortments.
Speaking of which, the Team Combiners are fantastic and I hope we see Bruticus at SDCC
WishfulThinking
Hopefully, they fix the spring tolerance on Warnado.

That's interesting.
I should have snuck a photo of the pack at the Australian Toyfair, because it definitely said Shockwave and Tornado.
Maybe it was just a mock-up pack, and they changed the names later.
Nevermore
