Would it really have killed them to do a little more retooling? Puma head for Quickswitch and a rounder shield/front for Nautica. It can't have been that difficult.

Hasbro you were being a bit cheap with the render showing Quickswitch with a new helm then not actually giving him it.
And do I need to come round to Rhode Island and explain to you personally that a Doggy-&-a-Pussy are not the same thing.

The Clones are all tentatively designated as Legends Class figures, but a combination of factors renders them unfit for individual sale. Fastclash having no cockpit is directly inspired by G1 Fastlane:

Other Legends Class figures, except for Rewind and Rumble have no weapons either, so it's par on course. Fastclash should have the standard 5mm holes, so he could always borrow some guns.
And I hope that helmet is an overlooked error on Quickswitch, so it can be fixed with a running change. Not that I should care, right?

Also from these boxsets I believe we're evening out on Leaders by faction.

At least for me, the clones will probably get Hot Rod's guns...
Or he'll keep them and Titan Master Roddy Prime will man them like a boss. I haven't decided yet

Clones are their own class and not linked to Titans Return in aany way in terms of functionality. So no titan masters, no way to pilot them, really their own subline divided up in 4 boxsets. They are also the size of the old scouts.

The entire figure's a huge mistake, so...
That's kind of interesting about the clones - the only figures in TR without any sort of Titan Master compatibility whatsoever? Not even some token feet pegs like on Laserbeak? Weird.
Maaaan it frustrates me that Laser Prime looks so good though... I want nothing else in this set and he looks bloody amazing.

This set has a brand new mold in it, which is already more than can be said for the CW boxed sets. Nautica has two very large new pieces relative to the size of the figure.
Of course they could have "done more". This is almost always true. Will, you seem especially price conscious for these products throughout the various discussions on these boards. Would you be willing to pay $125-$150 for these sets if it meant more tooling? Hasbro likely has numbers to say that the aggregate of the fandom wouldn't.
Not seeing more retooling isn't laziness, it's cost control.

This. Aside from Optimus Prime (and even then it's a fairly obtuse version of him) and Hot Rod's head this set is total D-listers. I love Quickswitch but I'm honestly astounded there's an updated figure of him at all, and I'm sure that that's only attributable to the fact that Titans Returns allows for even cheaper than usual head retools.
