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.

Alright, now time for my feelings: Alpha Trion looks great! Well done with him! Highbrow is what I wanted and I love it and am so looking forward to him. I like Brawn and Grimlock as titan masters, but man I was wishing for full scale bodies. Also, that Apeface titanmaster is pretty sweet as well. I can appreciate that, even if it is not full sized! Also love the titan master vehicles and how they are referencing the original characters :MAXIMAL:

That last pair of slides? Is that the Megatron triple or Overlord? Tank jet, looks like they might combine, could Duocons be the Pt.3 of Prime Wars?

"Monxo"? "Xort"? What's with all the X's?

It's been implied that that is Overlord! But while we should not rule out the duocons, Overlord was rumored and so far those rumors have proven to be pretty accurate :MAXIMAL:

I can't be the only one that thinks that tiny mech Apeface has is absolutely adorable.

He is a pretty sweet looking little dude :MAXIMAL:

I do like the little apeface and his ship/ape. My first thought about the tank and jet was the megs and prime set but it was the last slide with them combined that clinched it for overlord, was it rumoured to be leader class?

You know, Im glad Hasbro's releasing Computron but Takara has them beat. It's just better. I usually don't say it but using the rook mold is a +5 in my book.

Weirdwolf and Highbrow look great ,they're definitely on the TR wish list. Alpha Trion I'm not sure. His ship mode looks surprisingly good but his lion mode is a bit of a brick and his robot mode is a little too bulky for me.

On the other hand: :michaelbay:

OVERLORD!!! :michaelbay:

Do you want more photos of the new reveals from Botcon 2016? If so, you are in luck because Seibertron just updated all of its show galleries with new pics of these figures at various angles with some samples found below.

For new Titans Return images (they start at #169), click here.
(SDCC Titans Return set is included in this gallery)

For all we know, Takara might come out before. I don need to wait, I can judge that Takara's looks amazing and will be getting that one instead.

Probably same here. Here's hoping I can preorder it in July.

Alpha Lion looks absolutely ridiculous... I'm sorry, I just can't get past it. It just does not look good. ... good thing the Robot Mode's really badass

Also, yes, Wolfwire is like the best thing ever

Hm. Need to see more of Wolfwire but that wolf form in the photo disappoints me so far (mainly the legs look a bit but may be just way it's posed). Still not bad though and I'd be open to finally getting a proper new Carnivac figure even if just repainted from that with a new head.

Highbrow looks good. About as good as Highbrow can look (he's always been a bit boring).

86 movie set looks half ok. Well, Arcee, Springer and Magnus. That Drift Blurr ain't a patch on the new figure, especially Takara's version. And we need a new Kup!

Scrounge looks decent and I love that they gave him an accurate head. I never did manage to find the Cosmos mold but as Scrounge I would like to get him. Is he to be available seperate or just part of a big Computron pack I don't really want?

Scrounge only comes with Computron.

Seriously? Goddamnit. I just want Scrounge! What's he got to do with the Technobots anyways?

blah...

Is it just me, or does Kup have a new face? Not a new head, just his face? He doesn't look as.... gummy as the last version.

I agree mostly. I am super happy however that this set is coming out even though I don't really like Blurr in that set. Kup is a good placeholder until a new one comes out; that Magnus' paint scheme looks a lot better than the CW version; I am super stoked about the Arcee since I thought I would never be able to get her; and even though I already own Springer, this one can replace that one, so I can do that SillySpringer custom I have been wanting to do. All in all, this is the best Platinum set to me that we have gotten so far, besides the "Year-of-the" sets. This set is kinda an answer to prayer for me especially regarding Kup and Arcee.
