Is the first RB Decepticon?

Well, technically, no, that would be... Wedge, from Rescue Bots Academy, who is revealed to be an ex-Decepticon in that show. But also, actually, no - a Megatron drill-tank was revealed a little while back. Although these also aren't Rescue Bots really, even if they exist in the same space. So it kinda doesn't count. But maybe also does.

This is a 'Classic Heroes Team' toy, not a Rescue Bot.

"later branched into its own toyline".
So it was and now it isn't. We need a new thread!

Does this mean the original Classic Heroes like Prowl, Jazz, Tracks etc. are now the Classic Classic Heroes?

They are now known as G1 Classic Heroes.

Isn't this Classic Heroes Team though?

This is a Team. The old Classic Heroes were independent agents.

Exactly, so now Phil has amended the thread title there will be no confusion between this bobbins and the glorious golden encore of the Perchance to Dream team.

I think the music on the twitter video at the top of this page says it all.

Bobbins isn't a bad word.
Many wonderful things are absolute bobbins.

Wow! Crocodile Megatron! How deliciously obscure! I can't help wondering if it's one that was pitched for Legacy but the powers-that-be decided it was too left-field in comparison to the tyrannosaurus and dragon versions - yet too good an idea to pass up!

Well, it's taken 40 years, but I guess 'my' Mirage has finally been replaced by a much easier car to make toys of.

Been there... *takes a long, slow drag on his cigar and pours you a whisky* The thing that disappoints me most about these though is that they've literally made the least possible effort. If they'd bothered to remold Quicksilver's head for that reuse as Mirage that'd be something, but no. It's so sad how much they've decided to just run this once great toyline (in its prior incarnation as Rescue Bots) right into the ground.
