how many modes is sixshot assumed to have

Sixshot is apparently "like G1, but the robot mode is shorter than G1", so to me, that probably implies he has his six modes.

In the same way the Titans Return Powermaster Prime is a power master, Blurr is a target master, Apeface is a triple changer, Flywheels is a duocon, Lione's alt mode is a lion, etc?

Yeah but see I'm quoting a fan who's at the con rather than whatever Hasbro decides to say. I just figured that if he didn't have six modes - or even if one of the modes was different or swapped out, like say not having a gun mode in exchange for a base mode like all leaders have so far - that'd be something notable for them to point out.

Okay, so, I finally got my BBTS toy haul. (Two boxes....yeah, my accountant is making me sleep on the couch tonite...and maybe tomorrow nite too....) My initial impression of the Titan Masters vehicles like Brawn and Apeface, as well as the deluxes, is that they are small. I think I knew in my head that they all were small, given that the deluxes were supposed to be about the size of CW deluxes. But, the pictures, particularly the awesome ones by Seibertron himself, all showed so much detail that they always looked bigger in those pics.

I don't mean to say this as a negative. Okay, they are small, but that's good for my available storage space. (Silver lining!) But, the important thing, to me, is that there is a level of detail in those small packages that impresses me no end. Bravo designers!

So...now I need to figure out what I'm going to fiddle with first, all while I have too much work and homework to do.

Homework?!

I vote, Blurr first!

He's stacked under scourge. I started into the legends (wheelie just looks like a rhyming bot) and am working through the Titan Masters. I try to do a little work and then fiddle with the next one as a break.

(And I don't have much excuse. I have 7 weeks left in my Master's program... Then I can play a whole bunch! Well, except for the Honey-do list...)

These Titan Masters are friggin' awesome! Crashbash is so cleverly done for such a small package. Alas, back to cloud computing...

Are you getting your Titan Master's?

Okay, I had to go back to this comment. I had intended to open Scourge first to decide if I wanted to get 2 more for my Sweeps. Instead, I opened Blurr. And I cannot put him down. Wow, what a great toy!!

[Edit] One thing, though...I didn't know Blurr was technically a convertible....

It's official six shot has seven modes
http://tformers.com/cybertron-con-2016- ... /news.html

Fellow Seibertronians, Shanghai's Cybertron Con has just revealed Leader Class Sixshot. Thanks to 52Toys, we can now see Sixshot in all of his glorious seven modes! Now sporting an updated: spaceship, tank (and for some reason uses the same image for the 'battle car' mode), beast, submarine (which kind of looks like his gun mode upside down) and battle station - possibly retaining the leader class connectivity gimmick of the line. His Titanmaster has been revealed to be named Revolver. So check out the images and let us know what you think of Sixshot in the comments below.

I count 6. Tank and Battle Car look the same to me. There was text saying station mode that might have been tank mode, I think, but no picture depicting that. And the display appears to only showing 5 modes, the one tank mode/station mode not showing in the display, that I see. So, the six modes are, I think:

Robot
Submarine (Upside down gun mode to get past US toy gun laws? o_O )
Spaceship
Winged
Battle Car
Tank mode/Station Mode?

Fellow Seibertronians, Shanghai's Cybertron Con is in full swing with reveals. Thanks to 52Toys, we now
get to see Titanmaster Fangry and Ptero (Fangry looking fairly horrifying with his head-in-belly beast mode) as well as legends class Kickback, deluxe class Hotrod with Firedrive, and voyager class Optimus Prime with Diac. Optimus is now sporting a very Octane-esque triple-changing body. All of these are new molds, so check them out and let us know what you think of them in the comments below.

"Submarine" mode kinda makes me think of the Decepticon ship/underwater base from the cartoon, thanks to the huge tail fin.

I was just going by what the thing said.

About time we got a Legends Kickback! Though now I want a Head-Louse-Master Insecticon to go with, given he's got space for a passenger now.

Kinda want to get Fangry purely because of the Krang-esque face-stomach thing.

Fellow Seibertronians, Shanghai's Cybertron Con hot on the heels of the reveal of Leader Class Sixshot, we now get much a much better look at this highly anticipated figure. Thanks to 52Toys, we can now see Sixshot in all of his glorious seven modes! Now sporting an updated: spaceship, tank, beast, submarine and battle station mode. His Titanmaster has been revealed to be named Revolver. So check out the images and let us know what you think of Sixshot in the comments below.

Oh, yeah. Not being critical of you, so sorry if it seemed like that. I'm guessing the station mode was not shown... But it makes sense to have a station mode...

Oh dear Primus I want EVERYTHING.

Yeah, Sixshot is bought - and so are his repaints - and so is Fangry, but seriously, his beast mode(?) is horrifying

That's okay I wasn't even thinking about it like that at all. I was so excited when I first saw them that I didn't even notice that. Yeah so that we can have two autobot bases and two decepticon bases. Plus he is a leader so he would have to have some sort of base mode.

Sixshot totally stole the show, lol. I sense he'll be like Ultra Magnus and'll play hard-to-get.

Kickback is amazing, even with his slightly goofy proportions. I'm just happy they followed up on their promise of completing the original Insecticons!

*dumps Reveal the Shield Hot Rod at the sight of Titans Return Hot Rod* Freaking finally, a decent Hot Rod!

Fangry is terrifyingly adorable. He'll look good next to the Titans!

Ptero, while a pass, looks cool. I'd like to see who'd he would be potentially redecoed into.

Initially wanted to pass on Optimus in the hopes of him getting retooled and redecoed as Octane/Tankor, but... damn, he looks way better than I anticipated. He's going to be hard to say no to. Octane/Tankor, like Blitzwing, is bound to happen, sure, but Optimus actually looks bitchin'...

I just have one thing to say, during me catching up with all the news I've missed the past week, and it concerns Optimus Prime:

"Hi there Octane"
