And now for something completely different. I just noticed this:


Those are box set Titan Masters Rodimus and Thunderwing, retools of Ptero and Fangry respectively. One can tell by the heads, arms and legs... but the chest is a newly tooled piece, shared between them. That's a first.
at this point i don't even know what's real any more
But really, that's interesting - and actually, on further thought, it makes a bit of sense with the facts we already know! We can tell by this point that at the very least a Titan Master's torso seems to be on a parts tree with a few other things (like Chromedome/Blurr's thighs and gun), but that the limbs are perhaps on their own tree (or with minimal other items). Since these Titan Masters are (presumably) being molded without any other pieces or vehicles, then it actually makes sense for Hasbro to create a new parts tree that contains
just that one new torso piece - that way there's minimal waste from having to discard any other pieces that would have had to be molded alongside. And since the TM limbs and head seem not to be tied to the torsos or any other parts, and probably function as their own tree already, Hasbro could just pick whichever "set" of extremities they wanted to attach to the new "single-Titan-Master" torso for each one!
Is that making sense to anyone else, or just me? I can't always tell if I'm explaining stuff well
