And pants.

LOL, "Titan class"

Should be "Shampoo Bottle" class

No "Class". It's just "Titan Heroes" and "Titan Guardians". If you want a Titan Class go look at Metroplex and Devastator

Not Titan class. Titan Heroes and Titan Guardians.

Yeah guys, if anyone checks, the word class is no where to be found in the news post.

I think we can all agree these have no class.

Haha, also there is a third line called Tiny Titans which goes along with these in that they are not articulated and simple action figures.



So three Titan lines.

To be fair, the Rescue Bots once at least tried to have some playability with their interactive compatibility with the human mini-figures able to fit inside their torso cockpits. They're the only ones of these kinds of TF toys that I bought because of that feature.

I understand that the titans are cheap to produce and sell well in international markets.... but does anybody actually buy them in the US?

No articulation = INaction figures

Dollar general?


Sorry, not loving this concept and would not buy these for my kids.

If they actually were a dollar or two (or filled with shampoo) I might be a little more interested.

These are just garbage.

Might have been tempted to buy some of these Titan toys. If they had fully articulated robot modes.

Oh I wasn't including Rescue Bots in that joke. They have a specific and special job to do all on their own. Every time I pass one of those giant Primes in the clearance isles, I'm really tempted. I just want to fill him full of Micromans.

Eecccch - I can't believe ANYONE buys these butt-ugly 'titan' figures, never mind enough people buying them to the point that Hasbro keeps MAKING them.

What a waste of plastic that Hasbro SHOULD be using to make the generations figures more solid...

Lets be fair guys. These things are meant for 5 year olds if not younger. Who here has seen how 5 and under boys play with toys. SMASH, BASH, CRASH, then TOSS! These are perfect for that. If I had boys I would gladly get these for them.

Figures similar to these from the AOE line still clutter the shelves in many of the local retail stores in my surrounding areas. Even marked down, no one is buying this crap! If I had a kid that these are aimed toward, he'd be smart enough to know that with the name "Transformers," it better damn well transform.

I just wish Hasbro wouldn't pump out so many of these things from their factories because, like I said, they clutter the shelves intended for actual "transforming" Transformers. They're just as bad as those AOE Power Attacker that cost more than the actual transforming AOE action figures and do nothing but have some sort of spring action attack. Lame! Or those sparking Dinobots with an Autobot rider. Double Lame! I think those were about $13 a pop and did nothing but encourage a kid to start fires.

Side note, wolverinetodd, the Power Attackers still transformed.

Oh yeah, I did that all the time with my toys. I even peeled off all the chrome on purpose thinking it was some kind of packaging skin

These are new to you? They´ve been in Costa Rican shelves for a month now.
Hasbro also released 17 cm Titans for their Marvel line, special focus on The Avengers.
Haven´t picked one yet, but they look fun.

Then make sure to let us know when you see stuff that hasnt been announced on the site yet. And you can even take a picture for our sightings. We would give you the credit for it.

And they have the 6 inch ones too? Do they have other characters?

I thought they were already announced here.
We got Bumblebee, Optimus, Stelljaw and Sideswipe, all in 6 inches.
For the Marvel line, we got Spiderman, Ironman, Hulk and Thor, in case someone´s curious.

*sigh* Pointless.

Well, we only deal with Transformers news here, so the next time you go to the store, please take some photos of the transformer toys you see, especially those. And send them to news@seibertron.com.

If anyone in the UK wants the AOE Silver Prime versions of these toys. They're in Tesco reduced from £17 to £12 to £10 to £7 to £5. It's almost as if no-one wants unpainted, non-transforming, unarticulated bricks.

Except maybe to build a wall with.

LOL.......I stand corrected. Thanks for correcting me Cobotron. The others tried and failed, but you nailed it.

This should speak volumes about how much these cost to produce. Probably about $.30 a unit.

These are an unnecessary, tremendous, and awful waste of resources that contribute to our planet’s pollution... at least with regular TF figures, those can provide years of enjoyment and brain exercises because of the transformations. These things are MASSIVE and a complete waste of oil and plastic (plastic being on the rise in cost, so it shouldn’t be wasted). As other people have mentioned, they should be sold for $2 filled with shampoo, not for $10 and that’s all you get. At least shampoo and then their bottles would serve a purpose.

Even when I was 5 I would have called bullshit on a Transformer that couldn't transform.

I'm sure the worlds landfills are filled with more empty shampoo bottles than these toys.

If Hasbro didn't turn a profit from these crappy things, they wouldn't keep making them. My whole point is, If you don't like them, don't buy them. Our entire way of life is a tremendous, and awful waste of resources. That's why I prefer my petroleum products in the form of Warrior Class RID and Combiner Wars.

I can honestly and truly say that I don't care about how much Hasbro contributes to waste and pollution when I think about everything else wasteful that humanity (myself included) involves itself in. I seriously doubt the amount of waste generated by the manufacture of these toys is even in the top 100,000 wasteful actions committed by humans daily. I would say it is probably safe to say that wiping our butts with toilet paper has a far larger impact on resources and the environment. Let's wash, not wipe, people.

Did you just turn a thread about plastic toys into a pro-bidet propaganda?

That Bot wrote:Did you just turn a thread about plastic toys into a pro-bidet propaganda?

yep

For what it's worth, these are a thousand times more destructive to the environment than our toys.

Ewwww... keurig

Moving this thread back to its intended subject matter....

I took a look at some of the RID Decepticons on TFWiki. Now I want good toys of all of them. Damn it Hasbro I want to give you my money!

"These are a waste of plastic" someone could easily say that about all toys bought by adults who most feel have no business owning toys. In the box collectors are especially thought of by normal people as wasteful. This kinda stuff is why the TF fandom is looked down upon by people unfortunate enough to encounter it.

I have this very fond memory of buying a relatively expensive G1 Thunderclash MISB and breaking that seal. I kpet the packaging intact because I had no where better to put it at the time, but I take a lot of pleasure in releasing toys from the constraints of packaging hell.

I always try to keep my boxes from larger figures (leader/voyager/etc), never the blister packaging from smaller ones (deluxe/warrior/etc).

I only keep import/classy packaging. So most of my stuff is clutter free, but I have a lot of boxes from my addiction to Asian goods.

NuclearConvoy wrote:I only keep import/classy packaging. So most of my stuff is clutter free, but I have a lot of boxes from my addiction to Asian goods.

Same here. I just got some Beast Wars Neo figures from Sonokong and those boxes are just too awesome not to keep

I always think it is kind of funny that people actually have a stance on whether or not unboxing toys is the right thing to do. Personally, I do both. I like at least one iteration of a certain mold to be displayed out of box. On the other hand, why devalue and Masterpiece Seekers if I don't need to. To me, they are all the same damn thing anyhow, just with a different paint job.

To be perfectly blunt, I have the right to crush them into little pieces and then set them on fire if I feel so compelled.

Sure. It's yours.

The Wave 1 One-Step changers are at a reasonable enough price that I got Underbite and Strongarm off Amazon. The instructions for Strongarm, as usual, aren't clear but what's really bad is on mine the arms tend to lean inward. Underbite had the issue everyone else has where you have to push the legs in just so, to get them to stay. I like the transformation on Strongarm but Underbite is the better overall toy. Really don't think we need an Underbite in another size class.

Cobro that is AWESOME! Very smooth.

But then doesnt he look too small facing any of the warrior class figures?

And isn't his articulation nearly non existent?
In general, I just look at the 1-Steps and long for more joints and a better set of paint apps and a bigger scale.
I think we NEED a Warrior-class Underbite (and, frankly, pretty much all of the Decepticons seen so far) and, well, Hasbro can't please everyone but this is one of the first times in years that a show has come along where I have been thoroughly enthralled by the aesthetics. Prime offered up some decent options, but very few I felt I had to own (in fact, while not entirely by my design, the only two Prime figures I have are a Cliffjumper and an Insecticon), the last time I felt so captivated by a series aesthetically was Animated and I bought everything I could get my hands on (and I still desperately wish to fill in the gaps in that line).

I sure hope that's First Edition Cliffjumper because that is a wonderful and unique transformer toy and deserves a place in a collection.

I totally agree with that, I like the aesthetic too. But I feel Underbite would be better for a Hyperchange class to tower a bit over the warrior class figures, as he does on the show.

Uhm, I would, personally, rather have Warrior-class specifically because I like a) a modicum of complexity in a transformation, b) a decent amount of articulation (which neither 1-Step nor Hyperchange offer) and c) a figure that fits nicely into the space I have available. As I have moved out of my family home and time has gone onwards, I have found that larger figures are less-and-less likely to draw my attention unless they REALLY offer something special. In the RID15 line we have been told the most complex toys will be the Warrior-class, therefore that is the ideal class to meet all of my demands.

Also, I don't think it is first edition Cliffjumper as, while I loved the Dwayne Johnson voiced character, the toy I have is a bit underwhelming. I think that I had thought it was the first edition when I got it, but that was only because it was the first CJ from Prime I had found at retail (which, while I was living in Quebec, means that it easily could have been delayed a long time, retail shelves were horrible for my buying habits in Quebec).

I'm rambling a bit now...

Easy way to determine if it's the FE or RID cliffjumper:
Is the chest the actual car roof or is it fake kibble?
Real roof is FE. Faux kibble is RID.
