Remember the
Rescue Bots Optimus Prime Tow Truck Amazon exclusive we reported on not too long ago? It seems that Amazon has a second exclusive Rescue Bots figure. Introducing the
Rescue Bots Ambulance Heatwave, a reuse of the
Rescue Bots Medix figure with a new head sculpt. This ambulance Heatwave seems to have borrowed his deco from the Transformers Movie Ratchet. He’s available now on Amazon, at a price of $14.99.

Via
Tumblr, we have a look at the retailer incentive cover for More than Meets the Eye 42! It’s a party in this cover as the crew of the Lost Light enjoy some Energon goodies while watching fireworks. Like the MTME 41 retailer incentive cover, do not expect this one to necessarily represent any events taking place in the issue. It’s a really cool cover – check it out!

Via Ozformers member UltimateGalvatron, we have a first look at an upcoming Robots in Disguise toy. Listed on the

The price on the listing is AU$59.99, which puts this toy in roughly the same ballpark as Mega 1-Step Optimus Prime, and potentially marks him out as a rival, both in the story and as a toy. Those waiting to find
