Also from the same Hasbro Taiwan-TFND hands-on event, we get a closer look at some figures we saw announced at BotCon 2016 (galleries to be found here!): the San Diego Comic Con Exclusive Titan Force Box Set, featuring triple changer Voyager Sentinel Prime in clear orange plastic (resurrection will do that to you), the new Robots in Disguise Windblade in new colours, and new Titans Return Brainstorm. Check them out below!

The colour scheme on that Windblade... :SICK:

That blue windblade is the only figure I want of those three, and only because I can pretend it is a different character.
If I knew anyone going, I would try to go in on this set together.

Am I the only person that thinks this looks bad and should feel bad for being an SDCC exclusive? It is a giant orange brick with almost no paint or stickers. If Hasbro was really wanting to make sure that Reprolabels stays in business, this is how to do it.

EDIT - I know the SDCC one is actually the translucent one. But my point remains. While I applaud Hasbro saving me money by not having to buy 3rd party toys, they are killing me by what I'm going to have to pay in stickers to make their toys pretty.

It is pretty... well, something, the renders made it look so much nicer, I'm actually changing my mind about him, he will likely be a pass :BANG_HEAD:

I really hope Reprolabels/Toyhax has a sticker set ready for Sentinel Prime because he needs some serious help in his spaceship and train modes. What a shame, it's a good mold too.

It's a great mold, and a (finally) unique character that is actually interesting, as well as cool visually - dat headsculpt :shock:

Which makes it doubly disappointing that he looks so... garish, he definitely needed some paint apps, but I guess Hasbro didn't want to use any on the TR figures >:oP

Despite having written the post... I just noticed this:

What we saw at BotCon...

...is not what just showed up.

Is it possible that this is an unfinished set, and the final SDCC one is the BotCon display? :-?

Well, that's clearly translucent in the pic at botcon, but some of the plastic shades do look a little off, you're right :-?

Oh, never mind, I just clicked, again. First photo below is regular Hasbro, second is SDCC translucent version. #-o

True, but this (newest one)

is definitely different from this (botcon)

Maybe it was just a lighting thing?

Probably, yes. Very bright cold vs warm yellowish light.

I was going to pass on this set at first but being able to see the different sentinel versions next to each other helped change my mind. I like the translucent plastics a lot more than i did originally.

is it just me, or does the new Brainstorm not look quite as good as the Voyager we already got in vehicle mode?

Yes, I know. But I meant all I can see is Blurr with wings.

I know, so can I, something to do with psychology and seeing things first, and knowing that it's blurr with wings... Also, the nose, trunk, and cabin do have a distinct whiff of blurr about them on brainstorm :-?

Even so, the retool game is strong in this one. Imagine if hasbro had done this with trailbreaker and hoist a few years back. Or Megatron and dreadwing. They are putting a bit more effort into diversifying their repaints and I think it's fantastic. ;)^

Well, to be fair, the nosecone is detachable, so 'changing' it is about as hard as it is to change the heads on these figures
