Once again. weibo user zmultiplier is running out of juice, and just posting artwork for the upcoming Titans Return line like there's no tomorrow. This time round, fellow Seibertronian Mindmaster has shared the full Brainstorm image, which we had partially seen a number of times - and which is mirrored below along with a dynamic shot of the toy, also featuring Sentinel Prime and Windblade.

You can also find out more about the toy in our gallery of both Toy Fair 2016 showroom display here, and official product image from Hasbro, right here!

Is that a new deco for windblade there? And what role will she play?

Is that con anyone or just a generic made for the art?

He seems kinda Predaconish.

That's just an official bad photo shop the real figure has a proper Rumble head

Maybe Seibertron should note that in the article so we don't get angry rant posts about it.

Can't wait to see that. :HEADHURTS:

Then again, his hands, whatever weapon he comes with and his tank treads could be gang-molded. Maybe the SDCC version since they aren't in the CG images?

oh yeah, good point, i completely forgot about those, maybe Hasbro thought that with them he'd look too much like Warden or something, i dunno?

That's probably the rumored SDCC Windblade / Brainstorm double pack from the Transmissions Podcast.

News update for November 25th, 2015, episode 141.

1. Soundwave's Titanmaster will now be colored like G1 Soundwave, not SG colors as previously reported.
2. Titanmaster Deluxe Brainstorm will be a remold of Titanmaster Deluxe Blurr (new head, and adds wings).
3. There will be another Windblade figure, who is not a Headmaster, potentially a repaint of RiD Windblade.
4. SDCC set will contain Sentinel Prime vs. Brainstorm and Windblade.

Is that his ship mode nose section on his arm and if so can it be taken off and put on his back? There are aspects about this Brainstorm I like (it's got nicer feet than the Voyager) but there's bits that annoy me too. I'm still very much undecided about all these original Headmasters as Titanmasters and they are too small for my main group of Transformers but I dunno... I feel like if I saw one in Toys R Us I might pick it up, which is something I haven't felt about Combiner Wars much at all.

Yeah, the arms and the back kibble (front of the car) are definitely the same (transformation). But the rest is very different, so really heavy retool. Or they just borrowed that transformation scheme like they did with CW Brawl's legs from Rook's.

The head/chest piece is also the same. As are the the crotch, thighs, knees and the panels closing around at the lower legs

However, this mold has separate feet.

I think the deluxes are the highlight of the line so far. The voyagers look a bit funny...Leaders are ok. Fort Max is spectacular due to its size. We'll see how it turns out in hand

Now that I look closer at the legs, that's true.
To me the Voyager's are also highlights. I love Triplechangers and will definitely get Sentinel and Alpha. And let's look foreward to what they haven't revealed yet. Still waiting for Broadside. He will at least be or should be a Voyager but they could also make him a Leader class and let the base mode look like an aircraftcarrier.

I think someone has already said that chromedome is his own mold but borrows engineering from dead end the same way g2 smokejumper and energon starscream do.

@deadput that's sentinel prime in that picture with windblade and brainstorm, not a generic con or a predacon.

This brings up an interesting question, why put those three in a set?

Personally they should of had a really nice set of chromedome and rewind as the exclusive

From the official render's silhouette, it seems like the head might flip up into part of a backpack. Don't seem to be able to see it hanging off his butt.

That's good to know. I thought it looked like a different head from the Seibertron video, but didn't want to get my hopes up.

That SDCC box set sounds interesting, but I wonder just how much they can improve the paint to make them worthwhile. We know Sentinel looks great already. Brainstorm looks like he'll be in blue as he sometimes appears, especially in the Japanese Headmasters show. Windblade, I don't know, I've already got two deluxe figures from Hasbro, I don't know if I need a blue RID Windblade before we even get a properly colored one (too much read on the head of the one Hasbro showed). I'm thinking Takara Tomy will probably do a blue Brainstorm this time around and a proper TAV Windblade so I don't know how much need there'll be for this set.

The main thing that I want from this series so far is Sentinel Prime. (Maybe Galvatron, Alpha Trion, and Powermaster Prime if I find them for a good price.) :RENEGADE:

(Also, to me, Frenzy is RED, Rumble is BLUE.)

Fort max would be nice but I already have metroplex and I'd rather try get the g1.. but ya never no. Hope the crotch is blue, the crotch screw holes don't show (Still think it looks like it should go the other way) and his fists are blue in the final version.

Skullcruncher, mind wipe, chromedome, blur and hard head are all buys. Blaster and soundwave yup.

Optimus, he could do with a darker shade of grey but I'll get him or the Takara version.

Sentinel, nope will skip. Brainstorm might get depending on price etc. I'm happy with my generations one.

Astrotrain, yup.

Wheelie major yaaaas. Really like it, my recent new found love for legends figures means he'll be a nice addition considering how rubbish the character and toy were. It's like he's getting a chance at redemption.

The little headmasters, if they were released as sets of 4 I'd have been more interested. The accessories / vehicle thingies they come with are a bit rubbish.

Frenzy, rumble. Bah. Not feeling them much. Might get them as I've never had a representation of these guys and Soundwave needs his minions, but they're far down on my list as are the other cassettes.

I'm glad combiner wars is more or less over, means slightly less figures to purchase.

Oh don't wanna jinx it but they haven't released a bumblebee in CW or Titans returns lines have they??

I like Fortress Maximus a lot, but his colors are just :SICK:

. Hopefully, the colors change, which will most likely happen. If not, well, that's just what we get from Hasbro until we patiently wait for Takara's take. Not hating on the figure itself, just the colors.

It's been said already, but everything looks awesome! Getting everything except Brainstorm, because I like the voyager.

Re: Transformers Titans Return Brainstorm Artwork 'Leaked' (1766292)
Posted by Gearslide on February 14th, 2016 @ 8:56am CST

So I was right about Brainstorm being G1 Toy accurate-focused with a faceplate, and not based on the cartoon.

Now I'm wondering if Takara's gonna give ol' brainy a mouth remold when he travels across the planet.

Oh I get that as sentinel wasn't a great guy in idw, kinda fitting he got beat to pulp by megs who actually in a counter, got more noble when people did more flash backs on his goals (he still lost his way but I can't see sentinel being apologetic for his actions)

But still, why windblade and brainstorm? Why not chromedome and hardhead?

Basically what's the fiction going to be.

Also what faction are they going to put sentinel in?

Most likely nominally an Autobot for advertisement reasons. Like how they label Lockdown as a Decepticon, even though technically he isn't one.

I noticed that about Scourge but I saw something extra cool about it too. For the first time ever (this being the 4th attempt at G1 Scourge), the lazer atop his head is not the lazer atop the vehicle. So he is the first Scourge to not have VHS. Instead, the lazer atop the vehicle mode becomes his gun in robot mode. Its a real treat that the gimick made them evolve his design to have an extra surprise in the transformation.

But Devy was also 6 figures in one. Plus, unlike Devy who didnt interact with other CW figures, Fort Max is designed to interact with all the TR figures (though the box says the leader bases attach to his flight mode and not his base mode, which is wierd)

Sabrblade wrote:To clarify something from earlier, Chromedome is not a retool of the CW Dead End mold. He is his own unique mold but may have some similar engineering to the Dead End mold, much like how Energon Starscream was engineered similar to G2 Smokescreen.

What is your source? His arms and transformation (with the front end of the car on his back) really make it seem like he is based on the same design as Dead End. There was a decade between G2 smokescreen and energon Starscream while in this case, the Dead End mold is still being used for this year's releases.

We are saying pretty much the same thing about the Fort Max sword, mainly that the version that comes with the sword will be limited in number compared to the version that doesnt come with the sowrd. As for what there is left to reveal, well we still havnet seen Computron or Liokaiser, plus the remaining deluxes (wierdwolf), voyagers (alpha trion), leaders (we only have 3 reveals so far) and legends (ravage) of this year's Titans return line. So yeah, a bunch left to reveal.

Yeah, the arms and the back kibble (front of the car) are definitely the same (transformation). But the rest is very different, so really heavy retool. Or they just borrowed that transformation scheme like they did with CW Brawl's legs from Rook's.

The head/chest piece is also the same. As are the the crotch, thighs, knees and the panels closing around at the lower legs
However, this mold has separate feet.

I think the deluxes are the highlight of the line so far. The voyagers look a bit funny...Leaders are ok. Fort Max is spectacular due to its size. We'll see how it turns out in hand

I think someone has already said that chromedome is his own mold but borrows engineering from dead end the same way g2 smokejumper and energon starscream do.

@deadput that's sentinel prime in that picture with windblade and brainstorm, not a generic con or a predacon.

This brings up an interesting question, why put those three in a set?

Personally they should of had a really nice set of chromedome and rewind as the exclusive

I'm sure that Sentinel is one of the baddies in the Prime Wars.

Oh I get that as sentinel wasn't a great guy in idw, kinda fitting he got beat to pulp by megs who actually in a counter, got more noble when people did more flash backs on his goals (he still lost his way but I can't see sentinel being apologetic for his actions)

But still, why windblade and brainstorm? Why not chromedome and hardhead?

Basically what's the fiction going to be.

Also what faction are they going to put sentinel in?

I think it's to give Brainstorm another version of the new mold with IDW colors and to reuse the RID Windblade mold in the Generations line. I'm really looking foreward to that set because I want Sentinel and the plastic if his regular retail version looks a bit to blank and toy-like. Also I like the new Windblade mold but not the RID colors and I think the IDW colors of Brainstorm will also be more to my likes.

I'd say given the boxiness of his chest that's a safe bet. As a consequence though, Cerebros has some serious Robo-nips now.

Not as bad as Wreck-Gar's.... Those things'll poke someone's eye out!

Can't give his a twist like you can with Cerebros though.

For the first time ever (this being the 4th attempt at G1 Scourge), the lazer atop his head is not the lazer atop the vehicle. So he is the first Scourge to not have VHS. Instead, the lazer atop the vehicle mode becomes his gun in robot mode. Its a real treat that the gimick made them evolve his design to have an extra surprise in the transformation.

But it results in a pretty bad head shape for him which is putting me off. Which is a shame cos the face looks decent. Maybe improved third party non-transforming heads to plug in the neck ports sometime?

Also Blurr's face is kinda creeping me out... The figure looks alright except for that. Cheer up Blurr!

Did you get a good picture of Galvatron? I cant wait to get him he is my favourite transformers character.

With the new close up pics you can see that the Headmasters have balljointed heads. So the complete figures will also have balljointed heads, but regardless it looks like there's not much room for articulation.

I really don't have the patients to go back and read through all the posts right now. Do we know the height of Fortress Maximus? Is he between Devastator and Metroplex? :VEHI:

That's a very immature thing to say. Especially since Hasbro made it abundantly clear that the two franchises you mention are not for us

Agreed, not to mention selfish and close-minded >:oP

Oh...wait...

Wait, there was a G1.5 line? Never heard of it.

Yeah, that's where the misuse of liokaiser and road ceasar are from and the neon uses of the machine wars figures hail from (stalker...) and the g2 jets as the predators I believe, not sure.

I dunno 'bout ball-joints, but there does seem to be some x-axis movement allowed, I'll be damned, my interest in this line has just sky-rocketed :-?
