Makes more sense than Sky Shadow from Overlord, at least they have very similar transformations.

Not sure about Grimlock being a Leader though. Ultra, sure, but...

Why wouldn't you want the biggest Grimlock possible? People are already using MP Grimlock as a substitute for a G1 Generations Grimlock and it's a better idea than Leader Seeker Jets.

Powerhouse being Tidal Wave's Titan Master seems to be a misunderstanding. Chainclaw was the one that first posted that back in February, but sources since then have contradicted him saying that Powerhouse is an exclusive die cast Titan Master.

Because Grimlock is big but not quite that big. Him being the same size as Magnus and PM OP would just... really bug me.

I'd love it. I want big, beefy dinobots, like how FOC had Grimlock towering over everyone

But in the cartoon he's bigger than Magnus in dino mode and about he same size in bot mode if you use Optimus as the measuring stick. This (huge) scale chart illustrates it well.

Yeah but the cartoon was dumb

And also you linked me a size chart which literally lists him as Voyager at the exact same size as Optimus and Megatron

It's better to ignore the added size classes, that's derived from the official size chart from the cartoon. Here's a better one with the same info, but actually sticks them all together.

And is it fixable ?

---------

The SDCC Sentinel has the Titan Master head socket assembled backward. Here's a pic I took:


If you look closely, the narrower part of the socket is toward the back of the figure. These are the tabs on the socket that slot into the grooves on the Titan Master head. On all other figures that I have, the socket is reversed with the narrower part of the opening toward the front of the figure. (Pic is Sentinel on his back.

It really doesn't affect function that much, but if anyone is concerned about it, turning the Titan Master head around 180 degrees should keep the tabs from being broken or warn down excessively. As for fixing it, I don't want to mess with that chest cavity to get at the socket and turn it around. There are springs involved...

I always turn my titan master heads 180 when they're linking up. They either fit the same, or fit better. I've never had one fit better the proper way.

Do you really want Grimlock to be the same size as Jetfire?

Werdwolf can't be turned

Um, yes

Grimlock's not supposed to be that big. Jetfire's supposed to tower over every non-Combiner-sized/non-Citybot-sized Autobot.

emphasis on supposed to. I preferred the Fall of Cybertron scale:


He towered over all, and that was awesome.

But aren't we talking about the Primax Jetfire and Grimlock rather than the Uniend ones?

I really don't care too much about that. When I imagine Dinobots, I imagine giant, hulking muscle-bound bruisers with attitude issues and a fiery temperament. If we got Generations Dinobots, as in all 5, based closer on their G1 selves than others, I'd still like them big, like Leader Grimlock and voyager the rest save maybe Swoop.

But that's my interpretation. For "correct G1 scale" you could just do them as 1 voyager and like 4 deluxes, but I'd prefer big guys that loom over most all the others. Fall of Cybertron pictured that perfectly for me, and is what I think about when I hear "dinobots"

I prefer em as guys that are bigger than most like Optimus, but not as big as Jetfire and Magnus. That's why I feel Ultra suits them best.
... apart from Swoop. He's like small voyager or tall deluxe or something

I like Getaway, but mostly for his alt mode. Robot mode looks kinda blah.

Fine I'll give you another

That's the same one.

John Garringer is at it again folks. After giving us our first review of Triggerhappy he has brought to us today his latest review, that of Titans Return Deluxe Breakaway, or as we all know him: Getaway! Breakaway is a redeco of Wave 2 Chromedome with a new face sculpt, and is based on the Powermaster of the same name. You can check out the video review below, and let us know what you think of him in the comments section below. And head on over to one of our sponsors to pre-order yours now!

I was the one who posted it first, and technically I should get credit, but it doesn't really matter. Breakaway isn't that amazing of a toy anyway.

Edit: Stupid me, I didn't know I can click on the News Credits thing to see. Sorry.

The only other figure I'm excited to see a review for next in this wave is Sixshot.

Check your credits it did. People aren't Always mentioned. Of course I'm missing a credit but that's not the point. You deserve the credit. I never said it was mine. You posted it first. I just posted it so people could watch it before it was needed itlf they wanted to.
