Sorta new to the whole transformers toy scene.
Was wondering what is going on with the 6-inch Die Cast Titanium line...
Are there anymore G1 figures coming out?
Best Regards,
Ed

CANCELLED

I know, it sucks. I never got a chance to get Ultra Magnus.

Why cancelled? :sad:

They only made 4? G1 figures too... :-?

They made more than four.

Because the line didn't sell well and some of the figure were of questionable quality that the short answer. I'm sure someone who was a botcon can give a more detailed explanation.

Ive got Prime and Megatron. Both great, but Prime and Magnus have really wobbly leg joints. Plus I've heard a few cases where Soundwave literally fell apart when they opened the box.

Its likely complaints like this led to cancellation.

NOT CANCELLED

While in SDCC, I spoke with a Hasbro spokesperson who said that both TITANIUM and Alternators were "up in the air right now". I asked him, does that mean the lines are dead, and he said NO. It sounds like they're pondering it over right now. With the sh**load of people wanting the SDCC Alt Hot Rod, and Ti Nemesis, they may consider that to be a sign of interest. Other than the ones coming out, no new molds are planned at the moment, he said. He did say that repaints are a possibility. We shall see...

There's still some yet to come out, they had a Soundwave repaint at BOTCON, it was Soundblaster naturally.

And we've also seen a WW Prowl figure, plus there's rumor of a Grimlock and Skywarp(Thundercracker repaint).

I like the Titaniums, they make nice poseable display pieces and give off a very different asthetic to other TFs.

I hope I can get a SDCC Menasor

That says it in a nutshell. Hope it continues alongside the Alts line.
