It's getting pretty late in the game for that kind of stuff, though. I'd imagine production has to be nearly finished by now if they are going to release a Fort Max in time for SDCC next month.
It would be unusual for them to only have the Titans Return Set and G.I.Joe crossover this year. There should also be one other transforming exclusive and maybe a Kreon Class of '86 set (if they keep doing them). Take a look at this:
2015- CW Devastator, CW Combiner Hunters set, and Kreon Class of '85
2014- Knights of Unicron set, Movie Dinobots G1 set, and Kreon Class of '84
2013- Generations Metroplex, Prime Shockwave's Lab, and crossover Jetfire
2012- FOC Bruticus set, Prime Terrorcon Cliffjumper, and crossover H.I.S.S. Tank Shockwave
2011- Prime Matrix of Leadership Optimus Prime, Movie Ultimate Optimus Prime, and crossover Skystriker Starscream
2010- Reissue Blaster set and Mighty Muggs Prowl
2009- Reissue Soundwave set and Mighty Muggs Optimus Prime
2008- Classics Nemesis Prime and Titanium Skywarp
2007- Alternators Hot Rod and Titanium Menasor
2006- Alternators Nemesis Prime
2005- Legends Skywarp
Only years they didn't have more than one transforming exclusive are '05, '06, '09, and '10. I can't see them suddenly deciding this year they're going back to doing just one exclusive.
