Target Exclusive

[UltraPrimal]

Hot Spot looks like the canceled BotCon remold of the original mold. I'll probably get this one, since it looks less and less likely we'll get a release of the BotCon version.

Thrust is Thrust. Not interested.

Optimus Prime looks like a Powered Convoy repaint to me. I'm good with the original, unless I can some how find it cheap.

I wonder if this means we might get some of the canceled Titanium repaints like Primal Prime.

Front Paged and Credited. Thanks s250!

[Chaoslock]

Also pictured is War Within Optimus Prime, which appears to be the same figure in new packaging.

No, that's a repaint too.

[mattyc1007]

haha and i said i wouldnt spending this much this year haha

its the 3rd month of the year and ive alredy spent £260, i only 10 pound a week. and now they release these.

spendaholics here i come!

[emeraldbeacon]

Eh, they look nifty, but I don't care much for the "diecast for the sake of diecast" nature of the Titanium line. It tends to make then overly heavy and unposeable... like the bricks of G1. Don't get me wrong, G1 was cool... but I just prefer toys with articulation, now.

Reluctant pass.

[s250]

Hi Mkall,thanks for FPed
but I meant Titanium 6' repaint,not 6 repaint items

[Hard Hacker]

I'm liking that aborted exclusive reference.

[Firebird]

OTFCC Defensor!!!!!!!

There's a repaint that came out of left field. I need it.

WWI prime doesn't look that bad. Seems like a movie inspired repaint, but I prefer the original deco.

[Solrac333]

I would be great if they combined die cast and articulation. Like a titanium/classics line.

I hope they do more Titaniums.

WWI prime doesn't look that bad. Seems like a movie inspired repaint.

Yeah, I don't know why but that's what I thought when I saw it. I think it's the blue shoulders and thighs. Surprised they didn't put flames on it.

Really liking Hot Spot, but he'd be so small...

Wonder what these'll retail for now that Deluxes are $13 at Target and Wal-Mart (though still $10 at TRU, go figure)?

[Primus_feather]

Hopefully with these we'll see some of the old "Hard to find" previous released molds, and maybe some of the un-produced ones?
WW Grimlock (maybe in similar MP Grim colors?)
WW Prowl (Jazz?)
Ultra Magnus (just because I never found him)
and the never made molds..
Shockwave
Cosmos
Arcee (especially if she sells well in Ani and the Movie)

[Rodimus_NZ]

Hot Spot looks like a repaint of the R.I.D Optimus Prime figure, not a remould.

[typh0id]

Hot Spot doesn't look bad...Would rather have the original WW Prime than this repaint...But I'm really not crazy about Titaniums anyway...

[Jelze Bunnycat]

Target yet again! They'll be getting a lot of my business when I'm there

I'll be getting me Hot Zone and Prime for starters and see if I like them. Hot Spot was my first combiner part and very first regular figure so he holds a special place in my heart. And Prime just looks good in more blue. Hopefully he won't have loose joints like his first release.

[Overcracker]

Loving the Hotspot Repaint.


And being one of the molds I missed, I'm going to try to pick him up.

Thrust looks pretty cool, And the mold is one of the more solid ones in the line.

Prime, already have the original mold, and don;t need another one.

But still this is great knew, we might just get the un-produced molds out of this.

And a couple of other repaints too.

Like Primal Prime repaint for Optimal Optimus.

I can see a Purple repaint of WWI Megatron into WWI Galvatron.

[Gauntlet101010]

If this means there's a chance to get that Shockwave and Cosmos we saw prototypes of, then I'm all for Titanium making a comeback. But I have to admit, while I have a couple Titaniums, each figure is a mixed bag, some being stronger than others. Arcee not so much; I'd rather just stick with my Energon Arcee or treat Animated like she's G1.

As for these "new" figures ... none of them interest me. Well, the "Defensor" repaint does a bit, but with that head he's too "Prime" to fit. Same goes for Thrust. Given the nature of the mold, he could easily have been a conehead.

[rpetras]

I have no interest in the WW Prime repaint, but the other 2 are a must have for me!

[SentinelA]

probably will get Trust. That'll be it.

[Tigertrack]

Love the Hot Spot, I could leave the rest. Might get them though.

[Jaw Crusher]

Love the Hot Spot, I could leave the rest.

Same here.

[Megatron Wolf]

Awesome but if they're over $20 like Prowl and Grimlock were then i wont be getting these either. Now if they're $15 like they should be then they will be mine. If they do indeed come out.

[Wheeljack35]

Maybe they should of rereleased Ultra Magnus for us who never got him because we couldn't find him

[Dreadwinglord]

Awesome, I'll be picking up hot Spot, probably Prime and possibly Thrust

[Rated X]

Ill get Thrust, but I wish they would just have made him plastic instead of Titanium to go with the Target exclusives Dirge I recently picked up. No matter what series, Hasbro does not seem to care about relesing a complete line of seekers for retail...
