Quarter 2, so technically no later than april-june.

Finally got myself a Fort Max for Christmas, so much bigger in person, and I personally wont be applying the stickers aside from the autobot symbols, as I think it looks really nice without.

Here's part of my December/Christmas haul. I travelled near and far for a couple of these figures. Plus I bought another TR Galvatron, a PM Optimus, and a CW Motormaster, who was found while looking for the Ross Fort Max.

I got TR Midnwipe, Hot Rod, Brainstorm and Twinferno along with G1 Getaway (complete), Krok (Missing Gun) and Scorponok (Missing fastrack and base parts)

Great hauls! Keep the pics comin!

I got my very first Titan Master toy... picked by my 6-year-old nephew: Voyager Class Galvatron. And he's actually pretty neat. Sure, helmet could be better, but strangely I adore his spaceship mode. Must be the cockpit.

Warning: Avoid using the pseudo-Powermaster modes on Titan Master vehicles. Rarely works, and the heads pop off a lot.

What pseudo power master mode?

I've used the engine modes many times and have never had an issue, nor have I ever had a Titan Master lose its head. Just need to make sure you're putting the heads in the right way, they aren't all the same.

I think he means the modes that allow the Titan Masters to combine with the Titan Master Vehicles.

Went to a Wal-Mart in my area yesterday and was pleasantly surprised to find the wave 3 Titan Masters. When I went to self-checkout, they did not scan. The clerk came over and said "yeah someone else tried to purchase these today, I think there's a recall, I cant sell these to you if they do not scan" and tried to take them away from me. I promptly stopped him, told them they were $4.93 (most checkers will take your word, or a least ask another employee to go do a price check), but he was having none of that. It was only when I demanded the items back to take them to customer service that he reluctantly relinquished them. The lady at customer service wanted to give me a hard time as well, but before I went there, I went all the way back to toys, got an older TM I knew would scan to show her as proof. She didn't believe me at first, but reluctantly made the transaction happen. I know my $20 isn't really going to matter to them, but its sad when one corporation is so large, they think they can get away with crappy customer service.

Anyway...I'm pretty sure I'm not the first person in the U.S. to purchase Titan Masters wave 3 from a Wal-Mart...anyone else have this issue? I know glitches sometimes happen, but this is a national chain and I would think UPC's are linked to all stores...?

Bought an Overboard kill at my local Walmart last week. Didn't have any problems doing so.

I bolded it for you, but to spell it out - Wave 3 of the Titan Master figures consists of:

Overboard
Autobot Ptero
Sawback &
Decepticon Fangry

I've read somewhere in the web we could have Titan Returns dinobots? It's a fake news? Seem strange to me...

Oh ok. Thanks.

Two Titan Masters thus far have been homages to original Dinobots

Clobber=Grimlock &
Autobot Ptero=Swoop

ToyFair 2017 happens in New York on Feb 18th-21st, that is likely where most of the remainder of Titans Return will be revealed. If there are any actual Dinobot toys is anybody's guess at this time. Personally I'd like to see if a proposed continuation of Combiner Wars happens in 2018, and would love to see an official, proper Dinobot combiner.

Thank you!

I want Dinobot in evry toy line, so yes I would love to see an official, proper Dinobot combiner too!

If we do get dinobots in titans return, sludge will probably shuffler with the trunk spun 180 degrees

I don't think we need to fear that, only the Titan Masters themselves in that Class are retooled, not the vehicles. That said, their potential reuse will make them more likely to be made:

Snarl: Slugfest
Sludge/Slog: W Cassettebot Saur
Slag/Slug: uhm... I'll go hide now.

I bought mine at the self-checkout. They showed up as not in the system and locked me out of the transaction, but I had a previous wave TM with me at the time (buying gifts for friends) and when the employee overseeing the self-checkout area came over she told me to just scan that one two more times in place of the ones that didn't scan.

We are not going to see the entire 2017 toyline at an event in February. We'll probably see the remainder of wave 4 and some of wave 5.

Well that employee needs to be reported right away because now that stores inventory is going to be all messed up. j/k...at least you had someone who was helpful.
