There was a Trial and Play event in Hong Kong where fans can play with yet to be released figures. What is fun about these new photos from that event, found on TFmiser's Facebook page, is that they show the poses you can pull off with the figures along with aspects of the playability and many comparisons. Most are from the Titans Return line. We have comparisons with G1 figures and redecos within the line like Rewind and Rumble and Blurr with the SDCC Exclusive Brainstorm.
There are also more images of Hasbro's Computron both combined and seperated as well as more images of the upcoming Power Surge Optimus Prime from the Robots in Disguise line.

There is lots of great stuff below so take a look and let us know what excited you most and if you have learnt anything new.

Oh whoa! You can put the little headmasters in Wheelie?! Usually that kind of gimmick just makes a toy look bad, yet Wheelie's one of the best-looking Legends figures there are. Crazy.

Soundwave and Blaster look weird with swapped faces.

This is not how you Headmaster.

And that SDCC Windblade isn't really doing it for me. I guess I never got a close look at RiD Windblade. If I don't get that SDCC 3-pack, I think I can rest easy...

It's a cross-company thing. It's a new iteration of Soundwave that transforms into a tablet.
So no, not Vos

Little things amuse me...

There's a PE-DX03 Warden in the glass case over his shoulder.

Not only does he come with the Master Sword, there will also be a poster - just like we saw with the Victorion set - featuring some tasty sword action. Check it out below!

Just a question. Will IDW support a back story for this line? Will this be the "warden" Fortmax we all have come to love? 'cause that image sure is an angry angry 'max!

That illustration doesn't look like Fortmax. It has two antennas on his ears like 'plex. 'max has those horn like things.

Thanks you two. I remember that article now, but couldn't place the figure in only bot mode. (Plus, I like the Vos idea better...)

One is the retail, the other is the SDCC version. The one with the actual Autobrands is the retail version

You went Takara for Prime? Any reason why you preferred the stickers over paint apps? Or is it because you liked the extra microns?

Didn't Metroplex have a gun that flipped out of his arm? I'm asking because that Max looks like he still has it. There's a red patch on his arm. But I'm probably seeing things.

He does not have it. It was shown that the hole and flap are still there, but the gun has been removed

You asked if Titans Return would be given a story in the comic, that's a comic that says "Titans Return" on the cover. You asked if "warden" Fort Max would be used, that's him on the bottom looking over a bunch of dead(?) Titans.
