Yesterday's news of British Titans Return listings may have provided some pretty pictures, but it also made Britain sigh heavily at the high prices. That lead to some within the community to realize that the Takara versions might be a cheaper alternatives. After some quick research, it was found that, believe it or not, Kapow Toys has a near 30% discount on some upcoming Takara Legends figures. It actually seems that in the west, these are the best prices found, which is something you would not expect in England. The £ 20.99 being asked in these preorders below is a better price than any US counterpart (which sell these for £ 25). At the time this article is written, each of these toys below is priced at £ 20.99.

LG22 SKULLCRUNCHER

LG21 HARDHEAD

LG-30 WEIRDWOLF

Remember that these come with a more toon accurate headsculpt as well as a bonus triple changer gun that has to be bought individually if you go the Hasbro route.

Just pre-ordered LG30 Weirdwolf from Kapow. However I actually prefer the aesthetics of Hasbro's Hardhead and Skullcruncher, so I'll wait for those guys to come down in price.

With this line due out soon, and with some figures already out in Australia, I thought this would be a good time to update the Sightings Product Listings with Titans Return stuff. Wave 1 is in there, and some of Wave 2 as well. Hope it helps!

Just curious, what titan masters and full deluxe/voyager/leader figures ect. do you guys think would mix well? For example: I think Nightbeat's head might look good on Blurr's body.

I'm kinda hoping that Loudmouth looks nice on Cromedome and that Crashbash looks good on Skullcruncher (yes, I know he's called "Skullsmasher" now) and Mindwipe.

If they come out with a Nautica, I think Crashbash would look good on her too.

Brawn on Hardhead could be pretty funny.
Clobber could go with anyone potentially; black robot head with a mouthplate and red visor has very few things it doesn't complement.

I dunno, none of the figures are black... would look epic on Astrotrain... I wish Crashbash's color worked with other 'cons, it'll look AMAZING on Weird wolf :shock:

Interesting. It could be speculated Chase will be a repaint of Bumblebee; with new tooling saved for Goldbug. Or it could be Rescuebots chase. That's entirely possible.

I'm guessing ThunderClasp is most likely the new name for Thunderclash

Perceptor's probably a new mold. I'm willing to wager he'll turn into a microscope, not having to worry about the head; having the headmaster interact with the figure to homage the Microman function.

Fastlane? That's generic enough to be one of the autobot twins, or a replacement name.

Nautica's interesting choice. From the blurr to Brainstorm tooling, I'm hoping for an extensive retool. Both brainstorm and Blurr's legs already have a similar profile to nautica's and it's svelte. Her IDW alt mode has a large center cockpit that could become the chest, and the wing placement isn't dissimilar from brainstorm. I'm mostly worried how the head will look. I can only hope that three uses of the mold would be similar to the three uses of silverbolt.

One main figure Silverbolt/Blurr

an extensive purple retool; Cyclonus/Nautica,

one with some new parts but's mostly old: Scattorshot/Brainstorm.


Quickswitch. That's cool I guess, could lead to Sixknight, maybe even Greatshot.

Fast lane is one of the G1 Autobot Clones. There is a G1 character named Thunderclap, but it still could be Thunderclash. Sixnight sounds good to me! Sixnight was my favorite back when I first watched Masterforce. In fact, PMOP and Getaway are really making me hope we get more Powermaster from Titans Return just so I can convince myself they're the characters from Super-God Masterforce.

Now I can dig that city mode. And I love the titanic reference here!!

And with that new city mode, fan moded as it may be, it is really cool and does a lot more for the mold. makes it look different. Yes, he is still a retool to me, but he looks a bit better with that city mode. Makes me feel a bit better about getting him (which I was always going to do anyway). Still wish they had kept the treads. :MAXIMAL:

CYBERGEEKS Alliance's Facebook page has a ton of in hand images of upcoming Titans Return toys that come from both ChErikS and MasterRandy. These are also from the same TFND event we have previously seen but these offer some fun new comparisons like Titans Return Powermaster Optimus Prime and G1 Powermaster Optimus Prime along with Blurr and his remold Brainstorm side by side. The highlights are found below but you can click any link in this article to see the entire show gallery. Also, thanks to a video review of Fortress Maximus from kathleensklutter, we finally have a shot of what his open legs look like.

I can see it. Hardhead is more artillery than MBT, but I can see it.

I'm really starting to warm up to PMOP. At first I'm like "eh, cool", but the intrigue is definitely building. I enjoyed Ultra Magnus despite his useless hands, so I'm certain I'll pick PMOP up.

I am glad they fixed that part by adding incisions where you can plug in the weapons so they dont fall. Thats learning from one's mistakes and it deserves some credit :)

Also, I just realized how PMOP as a headmaster makes perfect sense. His G1 toy just had a headpiece go over his smaller head so I dont see this helmet being all that different from that. And now the powermaster becomes the headmaster so thats a fun and smart homage while making the transformation more streamlines and with less kibble.

Reaaaaaaaaaaaally can't wait for this stuff to start hitting stores! Powermaster Optimus Prime was my first Optimus as a kid, so he was an instabuy for me. I do like the fact that he is so similar to his original, and I feel like mine is less chromey than the one they have shown in the pictures. I know his legs aren't chrome, and I feel like I don't have the chrome Hi-Q either (just checked my picture thread and yeah, not chrome). So I'm guessing that is the SGMF God Ginrai or the TRU Commemorative re-release.

TL:DR, can't wait for this line to roll-out!! :michaelbay:

For me personally I like him as a headmaster more anyway. With the Powermaster, unless you cover it up with the Apex Armour that is like the worst weak spot ever. Punches and lasers tend to hit you in the chest more often than not so just putting your power source who is a living being in plain shot there is... just kind of stupid. Optimus at that point might as well open up his chest and say "HERE, LOOK, IT'S MY SPARK! SHOOT AWAY GUYS!". At least with a Headmaster you generally don't want your head being shot anyway, and this PM OP has the helmet.

Hmm...even though I already have Magnus, and I'll be getting the other Prime if that leak is true, I might still end up getting PM Prime after all. Might be a nice companion piece for CW Magnus.

In the same boat. I'll end up with both. It'll be fun to have both CW UM and TR PMOP to see the changes made to the mold in-hand.

Same here. I like them, and they break up the gray plastic better than not having them I think. I think my only complaint is the black rifles as I didn't like them on Magnus, although now I can give PMOP matching ones!

Posted by Kurona on May 31st, 2016 @ 9:47am CDT
In response to the whole thing about PM OP vs other OPs... for me at least, I see PM OP as the reborn super-powered evolution of Optimus from later years. I'd have him leading a different groups of guys; like 87-89 'bots while the classics/CW/TR Voyager Optimus or whatever leads the earlier years.
I see him as much an evolution of Optimus as Galvatron is of Megatron, and would have both him and a 'normal' Optimus for the same reasons I'd have both Megatron and Galvatron. Plus, while this is likely unintentional, I really like the parallels between Prime and Megsy's evolutions - Galvatron takes on a completely new identity born from a Dark God and in most cases loses his marbles, while Optimus keeps his identity and sanity. It's a cool thematic thing imo, even if Rodimus or Magnus are meant to be Galvy's opposite number.

As for the toy itself... I've adored it ever since I saw it and Powermaster Prime is just such a cool design in general. Maybe it's because I grew up with Cybertron but I always loved Optimus having a larger super mode and this is just perfect even if it's a retool (I'd have him displayed quite a bit aways from Magnus anyway). Heck, seeing this comparison completely sealed it - he looks so much like a modernization of the original toy and I have to get him at one point.
Only thing I don't particularly care for so far is that he keeps Magnus' ridiculously oversized cab grill. That... that really needed to be shortened. At least it isn't in view in Robot Mode.

Good points, Kurona. As a kid that grew up in a cab over, I'm terribly amused by it. My only real point of irritation is that the black guns don't match. If the main cannon had just been reflected, I would have been much happier.

Right now, my only disappointment with the line is that Brainstorm in robot mode looks too much like Blurr. Sure, I'm going to get it, but he won't be displayed on the shelf as Blurr because I'll be displaying the voyager with all the masters. Right now, I'm trying to pick up focus on unique versions of characters. The voyager just fit BS to a T and this Blurr mold has to be my Blurr to separate him from Drift. CW is a different story since I'm factoring in the look of the combined mode.

What sucks is that the grill is not even a carry over from the magnus mold. That area was completely remolded so they could have made it any length they wanted.

Do we have an approximative release date for Titan Return products to hits the shelves of retail stores? Seeing all those pictures is starting to convince me to pick up maybe more then just the autobots Headmasters for my classic collection. Fort Max and Powermaster Optimus are looking especially good and although they were not on my initial pick up list, I just might go for them both.

That's pretty much my only complaint about this mold apart from the feet. The grill is oversized and looks kinda dumb

Mine would be if it's using the same sh|t, buttery-soft plastic as magnus, I want this figure, but not if it's gonna be a piece of qc sh|t like the magnus' I bought =;

...? What was wrong with it? Mine's fine.

The plastic was too soft to handle the internal mechanism in the legs, and they snapped, leaving his legs jammed in-between bot and vehicle mode. This happened on both legs on both magnus' I bought; several others have had this problem, and now others are hearing the the horrid snapping click in there that precedes breakage. I'm not saying pmop is gonna be crap based on this, but I can see it happening if the plastic quality doesn't change

Seeing all those pictures is starting to convince me to pick up maybe more then just the autobots Headmasters for my classic collection. Fort Max and Powermaster Optimus are looking especially good and although they were not on my initial pick up list, I just might go for them both.


According to the placards at BotCon, the first wave should hit in the fall, but they may as come as early as July (which I'm hoping will happen).

They should be out about july/august online (unless a wave 4 august release happens again, like at target last year)

Mine's got a stress mark on one leg, but apart from that, I've had no issues with my Magnus. Well, the hands, but that's not his fault.

I never had any trouble with my CW Magnus (that being said, I really transform him and when doing so, I'm very careful) but with all that talk of wide breakage, I might just buy a second one next time the Leader class figures are on sale at Toys R us. There are plenty of him on the shelves right now.

I really like the look of this prime, though if I do get him I'll be giving him a name change, as that mould just screams Super Ginrai to me. It'll be interesting to see if takara do a translucent orange version for Fire Gutz glory ;-)

Now bring on the god bomber!

I would really like a orange God Ginrai. With all the headmasters coming our way, we might FINALY get a Minerva figure? Along with Go Shooter and Cab, that would be amazing! :D

That would be more TakaraTomy's department, not Hasbro. Though I could see Hasbro redeocing him as "Spark Attack" after the Heroes of Cybertron PVC figurine. :)

Speaking of TakaraTomy, they are releasing Loudmouth aka Siren as Goshooter, in a set with Wheelie. No further Headmaster Jr. have been announced, in fact Nightbeat will be released in Japan as... Nightbeat.

Well, I ama Super-God Masterforce fan, so I would love having a Godbomber and a super sweet Fire Guts God Ginrai repaint. Actuallly, Sentinal Prime is already Fire Guts! :lol:

I'm sad that neither Takara nor Hasbro seems to be planning to make figures of the Headmaster Jrs. with bodies. Though the fact that Takara is doing Nightbeat instead of Minerva kinda gives me hope that Takara might make a proper Minerva.

Anybody else think Titans Return Blurr looks decent in vehicle mode, but looks terrible in robot mode?
