If I knew anyone going, I would try to go in on this set together.
Posted by Lucky Logician on May 28th, 2016 @ 3:44pm CDT
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

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

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.

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.

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
But, I agree, they have steeped up their retool game - this is a good thing

You people really try too hard to see problems with these figures.
Posted by Mr Skram on May 29th, 2016 @ 4:52am CDT
The thing I have a problem with is the nosecone. Those guns don't detach. The barrels stick too far down when the nosecone rests on his back. Fairly irksome to me. Removable guns would have helped so much.

astrotrain and blur are buys, sentinel and brainstorm probably only if they're on major reduction. I have generations wind blade and she wasn't the best figure, might eventually get a legends one to adorn metroplex

You people? I'm just stating my opinion... on a forum
Edit: I'm just in love with the previous Brainstorm and I don't think this one surpasses it

It's not Generations Windblade it's the new RID mold repainted as her.

think there's a 3rd party legends scale figure i was confusing her with.
might bit a bit too soon to buy a new deluxe
Posted by ScottyP on May 30th, 2016 @ 4:57pm CDT
I know this is the wrong forum but you're referring to Iron Factory's "Iron Giant's Maiden" and that is a gloriously well done little toy.frogbat wrote:think there's a 3rd party legends scale figure i was confusing her with.
To get back on topic, is there an official name for the Sentinel Prime and Infinitus in this set? Reborn version, Rebirth version (please be this, right?), or something like that? Asking for a "friend" that updates the site's database for these kinds of things.

Also, that Windblade is cool and I'd love her in that coloring by herself. She would go great with Fort Max (who I feel city sized is about to show up in IDW very very soon in addition to his regular self) as her original toy goes with Metroplex

Wasn't there something about Energized floating around at BotCon?

Maybe, but looking back I'm finding nothing official. Could just be missing it though

TRANSFORMERS GENERATIONS TITANS RETURN Titan Force Set
(Ages 8 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $74.99/Available at Booth #3329 at Comic-Con International in San Diego)
SENTINEL PRIME has plans to return Cybertron to glory, and he’ll use whatever force is necessary to achieve it. The TRANSFORMERS GENERATIONS TITANS RETURN Titan Force Set allows fans to bring the battle to life. The set features a Voyager Class SENTINEL PRIME figure, DELUXE CLASS BRAINSTORM and WINDBLADE figures, as well as 2 TITAN MASTER figures – AUTOBOT TESLOR and AUTOBOT INFINITUS. Unite the figures together and power up for battle! Fans can also bring the action up a notch by combining the TITAN MASTER figures with the DELUXE CLASS, VOYAGER CLASS or LEADER CLASS Titans Return figures (each sold separately). The Triple Changer SENTINEL PRIME figure can morph between robot, space jet and train modes, with the BRAINSTORM figure converting from robot to CYBERTRONIAN jet fighter, WINDBLADE converting from robot to VTOL jet and Titan Master figures converting from robot to head. The TRANSFORMERS GENERATIONS TITANS RETURN Titan Force Set will be for sale at San Diego Comic-Con 2016. Following the convention, a limited number will be available on HasbroToyShop.com.

Yes let's all blame hasbro for not keeping a trademark of a character that technically wasn't around for almost 20 years.
Who cares, it's your toy. You can and will call him whatever you want.

Looking at eBay I saw that some of them said sold out which makes me think that they're all gone and won't be appearing on HTS...
