Known designers: Evan Brooks (Hasbro), Shogo Hasui (TakaraTomy)

Released in the fourth wave of Studio Series Core Class figures, "Rumble (Blue)” boasts greater screen-accuracy than his prior release and is a smaller mold than most of the other Core Class toys. However, this is offset due to his accessories and complexity, rivaling that of Kingdom/Legacy Eject. His accessories include the thruster guns that weren’t included with his prior Siege figure, as well as his piledrivers with non-movable pistons (although the tips are on 5mm pegs and can be shifted down to the end of the peg to simulate them moving or just be completely removed). Due to size and transformation constraints (chiefly the space needed to fold his fists into his forearms), he doesn’t have elbow joints.
His cassette mode is designed to the same specifications as the War for Cybertron Trilogy cassettes, and therefore can fit into any iteration of the Siege Soundwave and Kingdom Blaster molds’ chest compartments.
While the Core Class lacks the backdrops included with all other Studio Series size classes, the inside of Rumble’s packaging is decorated with art of the communications tower he breaks into at the beginning of the movie.
This figure was marketed as an iteration of Rumble even by TakaraTomy, who generally depict Frenzy consistently as the blue Mini-Cassette.
The figure was redecoed into his partner, Frenzy.
