a thing I have been doing with astrotrain's backpack is mounting it on his shoulder as a drone like thing

I saw some wave 2 voyagers in several walmarts and targets near me, so they're definitely starting to make it around. Deluxes are a little less prolific but hopefully everything will start to reach saturation by mid-December. The two wave 3 deluxes I ordered are on their way from BBTS to me, should show up tomorrow. I don't expect to see their assortment hit saturation until January or February or later though. The polar opposite of Combiner Wars where it seemed like everything saturated early and there were long stretches with no new product.

Sixshot video review by Optibotimus.

Today we bring you not one but two new video reviews, by fellow Seibertronians optibotimus and chuckdawg1999, featuring the Leader Class figure of the latest wave of Transformers Titans Return toys: Sixshot! The Decepticon six-changer (including the new 'submarine' mode) is the first official full update of the G1 toy, and you can check out two different opinions on him below!

Six Shot is a fantastic figure, the perfect G1 update. All six modes are represented and are just fun, each mode being solid and hefty. This is a must have figure and a crown jewel of the Titans Return line.

That little blurb before the video was all I needed to know.

I was interested in this figure. Now I'm sold.

I was waiting for someone to comment in video review to call submarine mode fund mode upside down rename him seven shot not six shot thanks for sharing video I skipped through articulation I skipped passed it in video I may get him in decided for now

Holy cats. Why didn't they do that helmet type deal with Galvatron?!

I don't see the harm in picking TR Sixshot up AND the eventual Takara Legends version

Cuz Galvatron's a Voyager, not a Leader. Leaders get big "G1 Scorponok"-esque helmet heads to bulk up the tiny Titan Master heads up to Leader-sized heads.

Speaking of Sixshot's helmet, it looks as if it can fold into the body with the headmaster still inside like PMOP.

You can. I cut that part in my video because i thought it was fairly obvious while going through the transformation that you could do it. Guess i should have left it in lol But yeah you can leave Revolver in if you wish and not remove him for transformation

I was merely commenting that it would've worked much better for Galvatron specifically. Woulda been nice to have more of a helmet instead of a mask.

After the Australian sighting of the wave 3 Deluxes of Transformers Titans Return, fellow Seibertronian cdavid3 sends us proof that Getaway, Hot Rod, Triggerhappy, and Twinferno have made it to US soil at $16.99 each - specifically, the photo below is from the Toys'R'Us store in Fremont, California. Check it out, and make sure to flag them up in our Sightings database and board section to help out other collectors!

As Cleveland Brown would say, "Ooh, that's nice."

sadly however you cant do that with blaster or soundwave

Soundwave and Sixshot look like they have Headmaster heads with no brains.

My Triggerhappy and Twinferno came in today. They're both great, but Triggerhappy is clearly the better of the two. Unfortunately, my Twinferno came with two of the same gun (the left side one, from the wielder's perspective) rather than mirrored guns to create the proper Titan Master sled. I've emailed BBTS about this, but I probably won't hear back until Monday because it's the weekend. So learn from this when shopping, carefully look at the guns before you buy.

Thought this looked rather cool, was faffing around with Astrotrain then started overly decorating with weapons. Does this make a good base mode?

thats actually a good looking base mode

*RANDOM THOUGHT* Maybe Skullsmasher can be retooled into Grotesque?

CMI-SillySpringer wrote:*RANDOM THOUGHT* Maybe Skullsmasher can be retooled into Grotesque?

Bloody hell, that would require very little retooling.
... in theory, at least. I don't think it'd be able to balance on two legs like the original toy.

Otherwise this is an awesome idea

This is too coincidental to not be at least considered by Hasbro/Takara.


If not a retail toy perhaps it could be a Hasbro convention exclusive.

It would need to be a heavy retool. I'm pretty sure most convention exclusives aren't that highly retooled for alt mode. He would need a new beast head, new back legs, wings, and modified front arms at least.

A Grotusque is rumored to be in the works. Supposedly he'll be the same size as Repugnus

That said, I finally saw Astrotrain and Alpha Trion in store! Almost picked one up too, but eh, getting really picky.
