The Energon Pub

I heard a passing comment in a video of their being a running change in Titans Returns (heads) that some have pinned legs at both joints and others only the knees are pinned.

Opinions on this please ?

Is there actual toys hat have both as a running change say Hardhead for example ?

Also if you folded down Alpha Trion's paws in robot mode down in the front they might look like hip covers somewhat like the Botcon one has.

My far, the better price for titans return wave 2 online. the set of 4 deluxes is $67.99 so 16.99 a figure and you get free shipping on orders above $50. That beats BBTS by quite a bit.

Never heard of this. Is it legit? Cuz it looks sketch.

They are 100% legit. And that's great because they are now the least costly place on the web to buy the wave 2 deluxes. Don't know if you will get hit with tax though.

I went to the Walgreens in OPL, and to 3 in LFT, one in LFT had Highbrow and only Highbrow. Asked stock guy to see if they had any more. He looked and said nope. A small premium is worth it to have it now rather than wait for other retailers to untangle their supply train and clearance CW guys.

A buddy of mine that works at a Walgreens in town got a Chromedome and a Highbrow. Another Walgreens in town had Chromedome. The initial Walgreens I reported to Cobotron about also had a Highbrow that I didn't mention because I had purchased it.

I think I'm going to wait to see what the repaint of Alpha Trion is before jumping on the mold. I guess all I need now is Soundwave and the Legends and I'm done with TR Wave 2.

Frenzy/Rumble Pistons? ^^

Finally got myself a Titans Return figure! Sure, its only Wheelie, but I am really impressed with it! Really fun and engaging transformation, and overall looks really good in both vehicle and robot mode, and at the moment is currently sitting on CW Ultra Magnus' shoulders!

Due to me passing all my exams, my Dad gave me £100, which I, without a single thought, ordered the entire of Wave 1 Deluxes, which will be arriving in a couple days! Are there any problems I should be aware with relating to any of Wave 1? I'd rather know before getting before I accidentally break them!

There's been some reports of Skullcruncher having loose hips; but aside from that I don't recall anything major. Just be a bit careful when posing him and stuff

Oh, I have the same issue with my Scavenger from Combiner Wars Devastator, hopefully its not as bad because though its only on one, it means that Scavenger now has to try and balance on one foot when posing!

Its really easy to fix though, just take a piece of tissue paper (ex: Kleenex) and place it between the ball joint and the leg when you plug it in and done, easy peasy

Gave this a shot, and now my Scavenger can actually stand! Thanks for the advice!

All the Hasbro ones are!(Scourge's head)

let us hope that the Takara one sorts that out

Have any of you been having a tough time finding the Wave 1 Titans Return figures at retail? With different classes of Wave 2 coming in hot and already being found at retail across North America, it could be that the first wave Deluxes could be hard to find for some. However, it looks like Hasbro might have you back with this new listing from Diamond showing a revision wave featuring all the wave 1 Deluxe figures along with the wave 2 figures Highbrow and Chromedome. It is unconfirmed if this revision case will be available to retailers outside of Diamond at this time. Also, this should not be confused as being a new wave, unlike the Robots in Disguise toys which do repackage older toys in new waves, since this has the same code (DLX AF ASST 201602) as wave 2.

These things are still only worth $9.99 IMO.

What has been your success rate at waiting and still getting the figures you want? You have a strategy in terms of grabbing a few early and waiting on others? I'm still trying to figure out how to gauge which figures I can wait for to get a good discount, and which ones I should just snag when available at close to MSRP rather than taking a chance at saving a few bucks.

Just curious guys, I hear Hasbro Toy Shop is the way to go in the US if you want to pay the least possible, but do they get every figure that gets released?

Yeah. I think so. Eventually.

They never got Sky Lynx.


-sulks back to corner, bitter that he had to go to UNIVERSAL FRICKIN STUDIOS to get one-

In my time, the only sale I saw was on the original wave of Clash RiD figures, and those were buy $30 get $5 off, which I couldn't get cause it was only for those 3 (they never got Megatronus) and I only wanted 2 of them.

They'll sometimes have BOGO 40% or 50% off. Nothing great.

I've not been lucky enough to find that sale.

Walmart and Target are my best 2 sources. Target somehow manages to find deluxes earlier than the others most of the time (looking at you combaticons) and Walmart gets the waves all at once usually (looking at you TR leaders) and keep the $4.99, $9.99, $14.99, $24.99, and $44.99, unlike TRU where they get stuff half the time the quickest, but have consistently been up about 20% ($6.99, $12.99, $23.99, $29.99, $50.99)

Target's awesome. That's where I found Alpha Bravo, my first AerialBot, and it was the place of my greatest find: They had Legends Tailgate Two to three months before his release date, and at 50% off because of a small crumple on his packaging. That was awesome. Don't ask me how they got it.

Seibertronians, thanks to users RodimusConvoy and Autobot N, we've got some potentially big news coming out of the Transformers Facebook fan page TFND. They've shared what could be a production sample of the rumored Titans Return Broadside! Take a look down below, and then compare it to the G1 toy by checking out our galleries here!







What do you think about this leak? Does it look official? Does it look like Broadside to you? Leave a comment ans tell us! And, as always, stay tuned to Seibertron.com for all your latest Transformers news and reviews.

Broadside?

Oh wow...that looks really good. I think it's retooled from Alpha Trion? Maybe? Can't quite tell...either way, I hope this is legit.

Yeah it looks a bit like it with the legs. If it is, I hope they ditched the whole beast mode and gave him a jet mode. (looks like it with the lack of beast kibble and added jet wings on him.) Kinda wonder how they'd turn a lion into a jet though.

It is. Look at the toes and outer lower-legs...

Also, when I realized we'd be getting all six Triple Changers released (TR Astrotrain and the eventual Blitzwing and Octane repaints + Gen Springer, Gen Sandstorm and this guy):

Same here! Though, I kinda wonder if they'd make a new Sandstorm and Springer. If they do I'd be glad to have a better Sandstorm than the old and harder-to-get one. (Unless if Sandstorm were to be a Walgreens exclusive! )

This should be fantastic. Been looking forward to a Broadside that much it made join the boards after all this time just reading everyones comments.

This looks like an official Hasbro figure, granted it's only a test shot. I really like what I see so far.

Seems pretty legit to me. I hope they paint the face tho
