This actually has me really nervous. Since his modes are the same as a titan master that they would be as a Voyager I wonder if they'll even bother to make him big. If they do though he'll have a mini me, which would be awesome.

It's a shame, because aesthetically a lot of these are really impressive. But they're so damn hollow...

So we're not getting individual Computron releases either? Guess that's a real nice piece of news for the people who went ahead and bought Scattershot. Why would anybody even bother to buy this when the Takara version is better, then?
So I guess anyone who wanted just one individual bot is also SOL. Guess the only way I'm getting a scrounge or a nosecone is by someone splitting the contents of boxed sets up and selling them at triple the price of a deluxe. How absolutely miserable.

It's a bad picture sure but he actually looks really good. Wonder if he'll get revealed later today.

Why in the world would they not announce Liokaiser at the panel but have it right there on a toy box?
Looks like it'll only be a complete package release as well. Guess when they're concentrating on titan wars, they won't want to release individual combiner limb toys. Muddies the waters too much.

At least there was some interesting thing revealed today. The only thing I got excited about was the Computron reveal. It made me realize I made the right decision by preordering the Takara version.

I am absolutely in love with Weirdwolf's alt mode. I want him right now.
And such a good job on Scrounge's face!

Alright, now I can get a little excited. Sad that I'm only excited for this and Overlord. Half of it is stuff I could care less about, and the other half had its hype nerves ruined by leaks.

Still on the fence with liokaiser, if I get him I'll have to do some head recannoning to say that an evil redeco of sky lynx reunited the five remaining members of the breastforce under orders, and reformed liokaiser.

I'm a bit disappointed that Brawn, so far, is just a Titan Master. We're so CLOSE to having all of the Minibots at the Legends scale. Just seal the deal, Hasbro! Give us Brawn and an Outback repaint along with Beachcomber and Seaspray, and we can be set!

You were expecting them to be individual releases even though we knew Combiner Wars individual releases were over after wave 6 and individual deluxes, voyagers, etc were going to be Titans Return branded? We knew, explicitly or implicitly, that further Combiner Wars releases would be box sets, this should not be a surprise.
So Hasbro can't even decide what way they want Nosecone to face.
The former looks bad but it's what Ramhorn and now Nosecone have been officially solicited as, while the latter makes more sense for the mold. However, Hasbro's Strafe looks surprisingly good. Kudos for that.
Liokaiser looks strange with that extra inch of height that not folding back the treads gives him. Odd that he's featured on the back of some packaging but they didn't want to reveal him yet. But that's been the trend of this con. Most of today's reveals were on the packaging of yesterday's figures, so what can you do.

I'm surprised they didn't reveal Liokaiser on the panel. He looks decent enough, but probably not something I would get. Same goes for Computron, the Takara version looks a lot better to me.
Brawn is an odd choice for a Titan Master (and I imagine everyone who ever wanted Legends Brawn from the Swerve mould are going to be furious), but his ATV/motorcycle is cool. Voyager Alpha Trion's alt modes don't look as good as I had hoped, but I'm still going to buy him, and a Lio Convoy repaint at some point would be great. And I'm probably kidding myself here, but Wolfwire looks like he could easily be retooled into a Transmetal style Cheetor and/or Tigatron, I hope that happens one day.

Lots of interesting figures here. Computron is so underwhelming. He's not BAD looking, but I'll stick to the Takara version. Overall, it's been a great display at BotCon.

I don't know about Cheetor or Tigatron remolds/repaints, but I can say that Hasbro has knocked it out of the park with Weirdwolf (aka, "Wolfwire"). It's hard to see how Takara Tomy could really improve on that for their Legends line.

So how has no-one posted Brainstorm yet?

I mean, yeah, this is just revealed for the Platinum set and we knew he was coming because of the leak a while ago, but... still.

We were leaving him with Platinum stuff because that is the only version showed off to date. We are waiting on the mainline release images to post in this thread. If you want to share images over here though of the platinum one no one will stop you

Can understand that, aye. Either way I think it's a beautiful remold that's really set apart from Blurr; remolds have really been stepping up recently with this, CW Onslaught and Takara's Nosecone imo.
