Technically, they've revealed Fortress Maximus, they have not revealed the cerebros headmaster figure, or their master sword.

Now this is what the generations line is supposed to be. Cool, updated designs of old figures. (That and some wicked cool idw stuff)
I think I'll get all the figures that were headmasters originally and pass on all the random figures they made headmasters for no reason.
Just like I passed on the characters they made combiners for no reason.
Not a G1 purest by any means, but some gimmicks just don't match some characters.

Chromedome and Highbrow look really cool in these pics. I don't know if I'll be able to wait till wave two to get them.

?? Takara never revealed what their head looks like. If you have any questions or thoughts on the takara one, just post them here: takara-tomy-transformers-legends-thread-p1798728.php#p1798728

As was the case with Combiner Wars, it seems there will be promotional sticker sheets made for the Titans Return products. A sheet covering the entirety of wave 1 was found on TFND's Facebook page. These stickers are for Powermaster Prime, Blaster, Galvatron, Sentinel Prime, Blurr, Scourge, Skulsmasher and Hardhead. An accompanying diagram shows where the stickers would go on the figures.
These are given out in China, promotionally, and will probably be linked with purchases exceeding a certain limit from Chinese retailers. These will probably also be available on e-bay for westerners to acquire, as is the case with the combiner wars stickers.

Huh, they officially make these?
That's... weird to me...
But it seems fun regardless.

Whoever did the display model didn't transform the right leg properly & 2nd, ALL versions of Fortress Maximus come w/the guns. The leg guns detach & have pop-out handles that fit perfectly in-hand. The only difference seems to be the Master sword. Overall nice figure. I will be picking up the Takara version.

Right leg who cares not transformed properly not hurting anyone figures look good bit small side but looking good

Wave 2 Titanmasters reminds me of action masters!

Titan Masters in general remind me of Action Masters. They don't really transform into anything on their own (Okay yeah they do turn into heads but... y'know), they're small and they ride little transforming vehicles.
When are we getting this mofo tbh?

Actually they said that the Titan Masters are a mix of all the different 'masters' we've had:

Headmasters: They turn into heads

Powermasters: They combine with their smaller vehicles when the vehicles transform

Targetmasters: The smaller vehicles become 5mm weapons for larger figures

Action masters: When not combined with their vehicles, they can pilot them

Huh, really? When'd they say that?

John Warden said that now all the masters were titanmasters. Which would explain why we will get triggerhappy as part of the line.

While I couldnt find the video, I did find this video which confirms something else:
Brainstorm is exclusive to the SDCC set.

Wait, does this mean we will not be getting Deluxe Brainstorm any other way? I thought it was just the paint deco...

Yes, that is currently the official word on the streets Makes sense though, he didnt appear on any of the waves rumoured.

That...
I have to be honest, that makes me a little angry.

Hopefully Takara uses it, so we can still get it without the box set...

I did just think of that, yeah -- definitely a possibility, right?

Most likely, since they'd be leaving a major character out of the Headmaster lineup if they didn't.

...come to think of it, maybe it's Hasbro using a Takara-made retool as an exclusive, like SDCC Fort Max.

Just had a thought: you might could get a pretty sweet custom Guiltaur out of PMOP if you do it right; paint the legs and weapons up like Megatron's, get him a huge screw-you cannon to strap on his arm, and give him Galvatron's Titanmaster so he could sorta emulate that concept art of Megatron wearing an Optimus Prime hat, and blam! Honestly, I might actually pick up both versions of the mold after all instead of just going Takara and calling it even so I can do that...

Yeah I'm... speechless. I had no idea he was a platinum exclusive! I was even kinda considering buying him! Well that sucks.

Hopefully they'll at least release a Misfire repaint or retool of Brainstorm in the normal line at some point.

He is not a platinum exclusive, he is a SDCC exclusive.
