Is TR Fort Max cheaper than the regular retail release Titan Metroplex was? $149.99 seems very reasonable for him, but I remember Metroplex was closer to $175.00, wasn't it? Maybe I'm "mis-remembering" things 8-}

, but I definitely paid much more than that for my HK ACG-Con Metroplex. What was his regular MSRP anyway?

Fellow Seibertronians, Shanghai's Cybertron Con has really upped their game. Thanks to 52Toys we get our very first look at the extremely anticipated Transformers Titans Return: Titan Class Trypticon! Mirrored below are three highly cropped images showing off what looks to be a massive city mode, with several of the newly revealed Titanmasters interacting with it, and a very large, and G1 faithful beast mode. So check the images out, and let us know how excited you are for this figure in the comments below.

Oh, how they tease us...

Man, he looks f%$king massive, is he gonna be 18+ inches tall in dino mode? Because if he is, that will yield one hell of a base mode, and I can't wait to see his 'attack/battle' station mode :shock:

I'm going to assume these are like hotel photos and everything ends a millimeter outside of the cropped edges.

...and now I see Trypticon's head in the pic with Highbrow.

Oh, jaws are hitting floors... if he is any yard stick, Scorponok could be massive :shock:

Need a jaw drop to the floor emoticon!

So it seems it's cheaper to make new molds than re-issue ( reference to g1 Scorponok). Please Hb or TT, re-issue G1 Scorponok first the way you re-issued Trypticon G1 :PRAY:

Yeah, this is good stuff :DANCE:

On another note, oh man, that molded detail is lush, like nothing else, gotta wonder if it'll all make it through to the final production model, and if so, just how much of it will be painted. He could have incredible potential for customized paint jobs :-?

I believe you, abnd you may have, but, between SDCC and the Shanghai Cybertron-Con, and the staffs' personal lives, it's been a very hectic week; but, this is a discussion thread, so let us know now, where you found it at and at what price

I can't remember the name of the town it's in, but the closest TRU is about a half-hour away from where I live (a small town in the state of Ohio in the U.S.A. about 15 minutes away from the city of Toledo), so it's not really local. I found Fort Max at the same price they did. I didn't buy him because I can can't afford him right now and I didn't take any photos because I didn't didn't have my phone on me. I did buy Blurr and Skullsmasher while I was there, though.

Shouldn't we put the first two letters in capitals?

TRypticon

TR as in Titans Return

by **frogbat** » Sat Jul 30, 2016 1:29 am

Yep. Yes please. Hope the final reveal is as impressive as these first teases. Makes me hold out for discounts on fort max even more. This guy might hit the 200 usd mark. Think hasbro have figured that collectors are willing to pay certain sums.

He does seem massive,,, look at soundwave attached! Wonder if they will somehow build him with a possibility of reengineering him into something else. Also... Wil he have a Titan master head gimmick. Maybe it will just be a separate vehicle?

Wonder bout hasbro' strategy. They held six shot, prime and trypticon reveals for this show, almost snubbing sdcc. They did hint with some artwork... Might be timing or it was some particular marketing plans who knows. Looks like a very strong effort and I'm curious to see hasbro con.

When will the next show/ event take place where we can expect some more news?

Or maybe he will come with a Titanmaster/Headmaster Full-Tilt who's Headmaster looks like Wipeout.

I have no idea why I needed an obscure reference to say that, Must be the coffee.

Here are a few things I noticed from the reveals I have not seen pointed out yet.

Fangry- I'm thinking this is probably transformed wrong. Just as most of the other titan masters could be transformed to have a face showing, but instead usually show off the titan masters legs/chest to fill in the empty spaces of the vehicle/dino/wolf mode, I don't think Fangry is supposed to be showing off the robot face. That said, I won't be the one to stop you, should you decide to 'Krang' it up with your own Fangry!

Sixshot- I noticed the back of the wolf head was empty in some images, an not in others. It looks like it is designed for his titan master to fill in that space.

Who ever did that trypticon artwork has obviously seen a lot of godzilla movies ;-)

in fact I would love to see a trypticon coloured as mecha godzilla.

Oh and stu when you mentioned a potential repaint of tryp, I think you meant gigastorm not gigatron :-P

As for how tryp looks...my god he is a beautiful beast, can't wait to see him against his rival metroplex.

As for the other reveals, looks like thin tankor is finally getting a good figure after his universe figure. Though optimus does look good in the mold ;-)

has it already been explained though about what happened to the other head he was rumoured to come with?

Everything else is shaping up really well :-)

though I guess this is the last of the official reveals this year?
