I was wondering if anyone else thought it would be a cool idea for Hasbro to release color or mold variant Titanmasters for already released Leaders, Voyagers and Deluxes. For example, if they released a Purple Helmet Astrotrain Titanmaster, or a Hardhead Titanmaster with a mouth instead of a mouthplate, would you want them?

Wouldn't surprise me if they did something like that later to pad the Titan Master price point. We do have an Optimus Prime head coming at some point (assumed to be the unused Star Convoy head for Voyager Prime) so there's that. If Overlord only comes with Mega (like how Sky Shadow only uses that mold) I could seem them releasing Giga alone. The face would be the same (or similar), but the bot mode would be different.

I've said this before and I'll say it again, but I REALLY wish Hasbro would put out weapon packs for the figures like they used to do with G.I. Joe. Just to have a whole bunch of Hardhead cannons to spruce up Fort Max with would be great. All those Titan Returns seat/guns would be wonderful in large numbers.

Speaking of variations has anyone listed which Titanmasters have clip on legs which have pinned and which have a variation or running change that can be either (on the same character)- and where (I.e. Hasbro or Takara).

It seems whatever I buy alternates between pinned legs or clip on legs with no rhyme or reason.

I've done some investigating and made a list based on the galleries. To keep it simple, I've listed one version per mold, as I haven't noticed changes in type of connection between redecos/retools (for instance, Fracas would include Xort):

Clips
Fracas
Grax
Infinitus
Monxo
Terri-Bull
Crashbash

Closed off
Vorath
Nightbeat
Loudmouth
Apex

Pinned
Stylor
Furos
Sovereign
Twin Cast
Apeface
Brawn
Nucleon

They'd have to come up with a better name if they wanted to get it into normal retailers and not adult novelty shops! :oops:
