Well...there you go WJ! Perceptor has a gun/canon alt mode, granted it's not a tank
btw loving the look of Broadsides jet mode
& i'm actually not hating on Overlords base mode as much, in those new pics

Very interesting you say this. It seems like the general consensus from everyone else on this thread is that they're buying everything in this line. Like you, I didn't know many of the characters, and had to google them. But yea, definitely can't wait for hot rod, perceptor, and brawn.
But I've also been recently watching the Japanese G1 cartoons (finished Headmasters and Masterforce, in the middle of Victory), so I'll also be picking up Sixshot and Overlord. I have no idea who Broadside is, but have to admit he looks pretty cool...so maybe.... Probably passing on everything else.
I'm curious how well this line will sell. While we're the minority on this forum, I'm guessing more people than not outside of this forum don't really know who these characters are, which may make them pass.

Broadside was the third Autobot Triple Changer from 1986, alongside Springer and Sandstorm. He was barely in season 3 of the G1 cartoon, appearing in only four episodes (and having his character model used for an illusory Decepticon in another episode).nycPrime wrote:I have no idea who Broadside is, but have to admit he looks pretty cool...so maybe....

Freakin' want Triggerhappy. And Twinferno's Titan Master has a kitty face with an eyepatch. I find that to be all kinds of awesome!

Broadside is glorious. At last, we get the 6th Triple Changer.
They all look great. Every time I say "That's it. I'm done collecting" they go and pull something like this.

I like the way Twinferno's titan master looks the leader of the good Battlebeast from the Headmaster cartoon.

Thanks! Is he a more important character in the comics or anywhere else, given he was a "minor" character in the G1 toon? Just trying to wrap my head around why Hasbro is giving us this.

To be frank, he's not exactly an enticing character since his bio tells us that he's both terrified of heights and gets seasick easily, despite his turning into both an aircraft and a seacraft.

The biggest reason seems to be that people simply want to complete their Autobot Triple Changer collection.nycPrime wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Broadside was the third Autobot Triple Changer from 1986, alongside Springer and Sandstorm.

I've been waiting for the renders to comment and I'm glad I did because they totally sold me on Black Shadow. The static pose they had him in on display made him look really chunky. Broadside looks great, the tiny aerial bots are a really cool touch but I'm not a fan of the really dark grey they used on him so I guess I'll wait and see what Takara does. Shuffler and Repugnus are my favorites of the bunch, they're so damn adorable. Still waiting on Takara for Sixshot. I like the look of him but something just seems off.
I'm really sick of them splitting up the waves in these reveals though. To me it doesn't feel like we're really getting anything. I mean the only new things that we saw were two titan masters, brawn, broadside and black shadow. Everything else we saw at the last reveal from the back of the other figures packaging.

Triggerhappy is looking good. I dig the alt-mode, and the robot mode looks like a much better put together Highbrow.
Black Shadow looks too...Puffy, especially compared to the Generations one I have. So Im happy to stick with that one and wait for Overlord.
The more I see of Sixshot, the less I like him. His proportions seem so wonky and he looks too much like 80s toy vs a toy homaging a toy from the 80s.

Would you mind showing me his official tank mode, because I think you are referring to his mobile laboratory mode, which is what the image you placed also shows. His actual tank mode was only part of the microchange line and looks like the pic below, not the one in the official image:

This is a mobile laboratory, not a tank mode.


Unless people mean mobiel laboratory when they mention "tank mode". But then, what do you call his actual tank mode?
EDIT: Sorry sureshot, I realize you included a pic in your post but I cant see it for some reason, it appears broken.

I love him.
Anyone else getting a little worried that for Sky Shadow there's only a render of one Titan Master, and in the interaction renders it only shows one Titan Master?

He's based on Overlord - a jet and a tank that combine into one robot, much like the Duocons.
