Now it’s time to head back to the small screen with the latest iteration of a new series with the surprising trailer for Transformers Robots in Disguise. Yes it sounded like Hasbro just recycled the title from the 2001 series, but with new animation but the same Cybertronians you’ve come to grow up with.
The series is set to be shown on The Hub Network this fall 2014, but there are no exact details on what the series is about only a preview of Bumblebee and a new cast of Autobots battling of course the Decepticons with the sneak peek clip courtesy of TFormers.com where you can catch it below:

Sideswipe has been a Lamborghini in the classic cartoon and a Corvette Stingray Concept. This time you may not be surprised about the latest car mode he takes form on the new RID series. But as mentioned above no details on what the show is about, but the head design might put some long time fans off with the new take on this well-known Autobot.
Cyberverse Legend Class Strong Arm:

The name Strong Arm has been used before in a previous series, but this new character is a pick-up truck with a crown on his head. Interesting design and yet still a mystery with no other details aside from being introduced as an Autobot.
One Step Change Legend Class Underbite:

This might be a drone creature that changes into an unexplained vehicle, and the other mode doesn’t look like a robot but a creature that reminds you of the Zod Monsters from Challenge of the Gobots. Interesting introduction for a character all too new to fans, and surely Hasbro will have further explanation of this characters soon.
There no details of price points for the figures revealed but Comic-Con International is just about heating up for now the images are good until they talk about the new series.
