• Titan class Fortress Maximus – said to be very massive and very G1-accurate, city mode is very much like in the previous leaked photo, did not appear to feature the IDW-inspired tread backpack
• Most of the already-known TR toys in package, including the Deluxes and Chromedome’s head; packaging is said to be very similar to Combiner Wars, and Skullsmasher (Skullcruncher) seemed larger than the CW Deluxes
That's a bit disappointing but I heard a rumor that all the heads will be getting proper bodies and these titan masters give the fans a choice between comic and g1 heads.
I've noticed an inconsistency in this description:

Besides a blurry image of the head and the Transmissions Podcast (who stated that Chromedome was a full figure), we have received no confirmation thus far that Chromedome actually exists. And anyway, a TFW member asked the TP about the Chromedome/Dead End rumor, and they said this:
Transmissions Podcast wrote:At first we didn't think so, but after comparing pics of Dead-End to what we've seen of Chromedome, this looks like it could be plausible. It's difficult to judge because the Chromedome images are not of a finished toy. But the arms & legs do look similar and transformation and vehicle modes look similar enough that it could be a retool. Chromedome's vehicle mode looks very much G1 and his robot mode is a mix of G1 and IDW.
With the conflicting sources here, I am not sure who to trust.
