And honestly, I am much happier with that. I am super stoked to actually get that tooling, and maybe an eventual Godbomber!

On the other hand, Nautica's vehicle mode is really just disappointing. Notably moreso than Brainstorm, it's literally just a purple Blurr with some turbines on the sides. Not to mention the fact that she still has that convertible-canopy thing going on - how is she meant to function as a submarine with a giant gaping hole in the cabin roof?
I also spy a sneaky Skrapnel in among the Trypticon display! It could just be so they can have all the Insecticons together, but the only other old figure in the display seems to be Cosmos - who's getting a reissue in TR. Could this mean a reissued Skrapnel in the near-ish future? (Wishful thinking I'm sure but I really hope so, T30 Legends never appeared in my area and now he's the only Insecticon I don't have.

Still pretty certain that Seaspray is going to be one of the line's biggest slam-dunks. He just looks totally flawless!

We got Apex Bomber, a retooled GodBomber
YAY

Magnus Prime can't be bought on his own, only in a BBTS-exclusive boxset which will probably be above 100$. Have fun!
Done. I love me a good boxset and as long as I get anything else in it, I'm still paying less than takara. and I'm still getting more SILVER PAINT

G2 Prime looks funky.
Blitzwing is the best toy Blitz has ever got and far better than the Generations one but I'm much happier with the mold as my Megatron.
So yeah thankfully I can skip most Titans now cos Last Knight's gonna cost me enough.

I'm not sure my signature can even be fulfilled anymore

Sea spray looks great if a little boxy
Blitzwing looks good and will get though I have the thrilling 30s one which is nice enough, he had too many design issues
Octane is a good update and always liked the character
Overlord will be a buy too.
Though it was a no brainier that they'd release twin twist I'm glad its there... besides having him as a kid and actually I recall finding him quite a fun figure in spite of his simplicity, it would've been quite bad if they didn't complete the set.
Bit disappointed regarding the thunderwing and rodimus heads as I was hoping to see new figures
Trypticon is great and makes one wonder what could have been with fortress if the designers had carte Blanche
Quick switch is meh
Magnus prime is a cool name
I like windblade... I have the original release and she was a bit unstable..
Still hoping for more targetmasters... misfire, slug singer and crosshairs seem to be the ones that could use existing molds relatively easily

Those are Master ports, they insert and gain a gimmick on some Headmaster/Powermaster bots

Well they wouldn't be able to use ginrai though?
Yeah saw the octone and well erm no hasbro, no. It has musical connotations... tankor would've been better.
There is no wallet left

They kinda Redecoed the Super Ginrai with more guns [it's better now] it's going to have an Apex Bomber [Godbomber]

Octone is a pun

Overlord burns the wallet of us Transformers fans

It's the exact same mold as Wave 3 Optimus with absolutely no changes, so yeah, it has a jet mode. They just didn't show it for... reasons.
Which is a shame, because the deco now means that Optimus turns into a jet that flies past you at extreme speeds while showing a picture of him burning down a forest. If anything could be added to him to make that sticker from the original toy more awesome, it's that

I wouldn't hold out on Iron Apex/Apex Bomber. The single rumour for him comes from a mostly-accurate list that said these boxsets would contain a deluxe Iron Apex that attaches to a Delta Magnus-coloured Powermaster Optimus Prime (ie not the Ginrai mold). The same rumours also failed to mention Metalhawk, said one of the included Titan Masters would be 'Thunderclap', and if I recall correctly said the clones would be Deluxe.
Given all this it's safe to assume that these particular rumours on the list were either wildly inaccurate or were working from early information and plans for the sets that for some reason Hasbro changed later (speculate on that as you may). Hence right now, we have no indication that Hasbro plans to release a Godbomber/Iron Apex to combine with either Powermaster Optimus Prime or Magnus Prime.
... also, he's called Octone? I'm not disbelieving you, but where'd you see that? That's... that's just a really dumb name.
