I have trust issues

[Albatross250]

Looks like 's Overlord is gonna have these 2 tank/jet vehicles.

Glad i bought both of them
(I'm actually gonna use Skytread and Terri-bull as an application for Overlord's..... weaponry.... yeah )
They are pesky and hard to find last month, *SIIIIIGH*

Annnd there's this:

Whoops!

Don't bend your crocodile heads too far back, kids. Any ideas for a solution to this problem? I'm thinking just putting a little superglue there and clamping it shut. Any better way?

Oww that is a new one. Not seen one break there before on that toy - I hope Hasbro can look into a new plastic supplier or check their manufacturing sites have the machines on the right settings as that is a lot of breakages Titan Returns toys are having.

I'd recommend a resin glue and bind the part tight shut .

I wish they would make Dai Atlas using Sky Shadow's mold

RAR, please, we have an entire forum for KOs and the like.

I know you know this, as I just found a post by you there about these very KOs you are speaking of here.
Feel free to start a new thread over there about these TR KOs. This thread is for and about the official toys.

Thanks.

OK will do. Didn't mean to cause any drama.

Well, I got roadburn, Brawn, and Sky Shadow today, and they are all really good.

Roadburn is actually a lot more fun than I thought he would be. The transformation is fun, and the paint work is pretty spot on. He's really fun to fiddle with, and red and black is a personal favorite of mine

Brawn is awesome despite only bending his knees and shrugging to transform. they did kill his look and he does look great with his titan master self. These 2 are really good legends figures, glad I found them!

And then Sky Shadow. oh man. no kidding, he is the best leader class figure I have gotten since Ultra Magnus 2 years ago. he is incredibly satisfying, the 2 alt modes are gorgeous, and the colors are great and perfect! the transformation and combination are fun, and he looks great overall, nothing to complain about! even though he is simple, the simple works for him. the combining 2 alt mode gimmicks is a personal favorite, and we need more duo-cons/bots!

Man, seeing pics like that are annoying because I can't get to a store that sells them. Now I want Overlord or that repaint really bad.

To all those who have sky shadow, what is up with the green painted little bits on the tank. what are they supposed to be and why are they highlighted? I just found it an odd place to go paint instead of highlighting other parts.

So someone called Michael Ivey (@GeneralTenko on Twitter) got hold of Siege on Cybertron, and for some reason the box has the Beast Wars logo on the side.

Because Pounce is a beast? Are they Hinting at something down the line? Seems really random.

[Cobotron]

Beast Wars?! Strange and wonderful.

Did a round of head swappin' last night. Just for fun.
Thought I'd share one I thought looked real cool. It's a faction masher, but that's where a little of the old imagination comes in handy.


Shuffletone!

[Bronzewolf]

Put on your sleuthing hats, folks! Seibertronian Munky has pointed toward a tweet by GeneralTekno, who in turn reposts a photo from someone who got their hands on the Siege of Cybertron box set. The photo depicts the side of the box the figures come in, which strangely has the Beast Wars logo printed on it. Check out the photo and see if you can make heads or tails of it below in the discussion forums!

Probably just an IP grab or so to hold onto the trademark or whatever I feel. Still interesting though, especially with the MP Dinobot in the pipeline, but that is more on the Takara end and not so much the Hasbro end of things. Though Siege on Cybertron set has things from the Japanese side of the continuity if I'm not mistaken...

That's more than likely what it is, however I still have my fingers crossed that we'll get a Beast Wars themed "Something on Eukaris" box set.

I think "Beast Wars on Eukaris" would work reasonably well.

And the recent events in IDW's Revolutionaries comic provides some interesting possibilities.

On the Hasbro end of things, there is a new Primal toy coming out since he won the Prime contest.

Double post fail. Sorry.

It wouldn't be too hard to do with existing moulds, you could have Alligator Megatron from Skullsmasher, Bat Optimus Primal (or even Nightscream!) from Mindwipe, or a Hasbro version of Takara's Legends Lio Convoy.

Hasbro doesn't switch out head molds as readily as TakaraTomy (the molds are tied to Galvatron and Sentinel Prime), so I'd consider those somewhat unlikely. I wonder they've be cheeky enough to retool Skullsmasher into Iguanus

I did forget about that actually...but that was because Megatron should have won. XD

Yet more weirdness from whoever is in charge of the Titans Return packaging. First the screwup with Galvatron and Broadside, and now this.

What screwup was on Galvatron and Broadside?

Galvy was in Autobot packaging and Broadside was in Decepticon packaging

[o.supreme]

looks like there might be some merit to my idea about a Eukaris set (and the 4th being an Earth Set).

We just don't have a Beast themed "Leader" yet (Unless they used Sixshopt for a 3rd time as Greatshot). As much as I would have rather had that than Quickswitch for the Speed set, I would not want a 3rd of this mold in a single toy line. We have Lio Convoy as a potential Voyager, Several Deluxes to choose from, Wingspan as the Legends Class, and as for the TM Head...Perhaps Tigatron, or Air Razor?

Ah, that's just a thing in general. All Wave 1-3 boxes had Autobot symbols, while all Wave 4 onward boxes had Decepticon symbols.

Why is it wave-dependant instead of aligning it with the individual figure included? ... I dunno, it's kinda dumb.
