Since they're placing the Super Ginrai remold in one of the box sets, hopefully they'll stick Godbomber in one of them too. It would've been great if they were in the same set but whatever.

Getting Godbomber in one of the other box-sets is about as much a sure thing as getting Voyager Horrorcons in a line that features triple-changing Headmaster Voyagers.

Which is to say it should be a no-brainer when you first think about it, but the more new information that comes out the more worrying the situation gets.

The latest rumour is Deathsaurus (but its an old rumour).

Skywarp and Starscream. It was a double rerelease that we still see around in stores

Not this time. It was confirmed that he does not partform from trailer to robot.

I thought they were coming earlier than that, its too bad, they intrigue me quite a bit for some reason.

SillySpringer wrote:Hey guys, can we just go back and reflect on how awesome this Windblade looks for a bit? I feel like she didn't get the praise she deserves.

I feel we should wait to have it in hand before we praise it. You dont see it from the angles, but the ket mode is still quite gappy.

She certainly wont, thats a hand painted prototype.

I know right!

Is it just me or does the headsculpt not look feminine? Reminds me more of a stroic greek statue hero.

SillySpringer wrote:so we can assume that there will be more than 4 TR box sets.

We really cant. There are 4 clones and 4 tech stats in titans return. Everything leads to there being 4 boxsets. There might be more, of course, but we really cant assume there will be, we can only hope.

Deadput wrote:Exactly I'm surprised they made her at all and with any amount of retooling.

Me too especially since the deluxe in the other boxset has no retooling in the main body.

SillySpringer wrote:Oh yeah, I forgot that ugly thing is meant to be Metalhawk.

What are you talking about, he looks awesome!

Maximal Rainmaker wrote:I really want this...

This boxset is Toys R Us exclusive, right?

Yup

As was the case with TR Kup, I wouldn't be able to recognize this toy unless you told me. That's just not a believable head for her. HftD Tomahawk's head looks more like Nautica than this.

Nautica looks good. Wish they would have modded the chest and front end a bit, but it's one of the better TR molds and relatively easy to de-headmaster.

I agree with you Will. Nautica's headsculpt isn't that good. It's too stoic and chiseled. Her face is more round and usually smiling or some type of facial expression.

Exactly. That's kinda what kills the toy for me, and makes me want to just hand it to one of my siblings if I get this set. That and the fact that it's a PURPLE BLURR.

Overlord and Nautica both suffer from a severe lack of lips.

Duh. I mean as far as color placement. It looks pretty close at the event to the CG model colors. My point is I hope we're not gonna get a Galvatron situation with her and actually get that color palate on her head sculpt.

ThunderThruster wrote:Maybe it's the late hour, the fact I've had a long day or that I'm just going batsh*t crazy, but with some modding to the wings, plane nosecone and the titan master, Windblade could actually work nicely as Nautica.....

Way back when they first announced tr windblade (you know like a month ago) I noticed that she shared parts and a transformation scheme with scourge, whose altmode is similar to nautica's. Knowing that, I bought a cheap scourge to Frankenstein together with her to make an actually good nautica.

I figure that I can keep most of scourge the same and fit windblade's torso on it, add in a shapeways tm face (already bought) and paint, and I'll have a pretty good figure.

It would help a lot if you explained what you meant. I believe the colour placement will remain the same but depending on the plastic used it can give a different result as to what clour stands out or how shiney it is.

Anyways, I am looking at this old list and wondering what we actually have confirmed now:


•Perceptor yes
•Cliffjumper
•Beachcomber
•Huffer
•Seaspray yes
•Cosmos yes
•Kup yes
•Broadside yes
•Hubcap
•Crosshairs
•Fastlane yes
•Cloudraker
•Doublecross yes
•Grotusque
•Chase yes
•Freeway
•Searchlight
•Bliztwing yes
•Trypticon yes
•Octane yes
•Sixshot yes
•Slugslinger yes
•Triggerhappy yes
•Battletrap
•Flywheels (titan master)
•Pounce yes
•Wingspan
•Arcee
•Shockwave
•Snapdragon
•Apeface (tian master)
•Misfire yes
•Getaway yes
•Nightbeat (titan master)
•Hosehead
•Quickswitch yes
•Needlenose
•Sky Shadow yes
•Nautica yes
•Tidalwave yes
•Deathasaurus
•Abominus (I am thinking now it might be that TLK repaint using most of the Prime abominus molds)
•Sharkticon yes
•Ranger
•Godbomber
•Tidal Wave yes again

What did you not know the only emotion that exists is staring blankly at space?

No but seriously all of the Hasbro generations toys that have come out recently have no emotion at all the only one I can think of is Bumblebee's small smirk.

Say what you will about RID but at least their warrior figures have something on their faces most of the time.

It looks like we've got some more news on upcoming Titans Return figures, this time our first look at the collector's cards for Deluxe Class Slugslinger, Voyager Blitzwing and Octone! Take a look at a scan of the cards below! (You can also see photos of the figures these cards will be accompanying at our Australia Toy Fair Coverage!)

Yep! My mistake. Was fixed in the article, now is fixed on the boards.

Octone????

Octone and his triple changing friends Blastwing... and... Startrain...

Anyway, I am looking forward to Blitzwing.

How dare you forget the Autobots! Leaper, Sandnado, and Longside are timeless characters with flawless names!

Who could forget Sandnado.

That actually cracked me up for some reason.

Can't wait for new versions of their mortal enemies, sunsquirm, sprinkler, and bradside

There's also Megatron who has one sick scowl on both his Leader and Voyager toys.
Menasor's pretty angry, so is Blades; the Torchbearers all have some smile going on, and Offroad in particular stands out as suitably creepy. Not to mention some of the Titan Masters; Thunderwing's crazy, Rodimus is old and Nightbeat needs psychiatric help. There's some range of emotion if you look hard enough.

Rook is frowning, probably because of his ushanka/ football helmet hybrid

Fangry has a.... well, angry scowl.

I don't own Megatron (yet) so I wouldn't know but anyways now we have stare, angry, a couple of smirks and whatever expression Nightbeat is supposed to have.

I despise that expression on Nightbeat a lot it really should of been Siren/Loundmouth since that would actually make sense for him to be "yelling" in fact I think that's what was supposed to happen looking at the the two of them but the colors were switched for toy accuracy despite the fact that no other Nightbeat has had the toy face like ever.

Unfortunately, I think this is simply another symptom of the current design team's rampant toy-accuracy. Blurr's colour scheme, Hardhead not having a face... and Nightbeat not actually looking like how he looked in every fictional appearance he had ever. But it's fine because he looks like the toy a handful of people had as a kid and half of that handful were annoyed he didn't have his shades from Marvel.
Sorry if I seem bitter; it just seems like Barber and his team could use a bit of tact every now and then.
