Hasbro wrote:Dear Transformers fans,

We’re excited to share with you today some news about the future of the Transformers line, including another chance for fans to have their voices heard!

At New York Comic Con last month, Transformers fans were officially introduced to the new chapter in the Transformers Generations Prime Wars Trilogy, TITANS RETURN! The reaction to the new figures and the Titan Master system has been great, but some fans were wondering where the Titans in TITANS RETURN were. We can now officially confirm that TITAN SCALE FORTRESS MAXIMUS will be available in Fall 2016, the first Titan Scale figure in the TITANS RETURN line!

The first ... but not the last! We’re turning to our fans to help us determine which titanic character from Transformers history should be the next Titan Scale figure for Fall 2017. Starting Tuesday, November 24th on the official Transformers Facebook Page (Facebook.com/Transformers), fans will be able to cast a vote for which of the following fan-favorite characters should be added to the line:

- Scorponok
- Trypticon
- Omega Supreme

Starting today, fans will be treated to campaign-style posts featuring each of the three characters, leading up to Tuesday's official voting post, which will be active from 10:00 am PST to 12:00 am PST. Fans will be able to vote in the comments section.

Additionally, this will be the first Transformers Fan Vote that will include fans from China. Chinese fans will be voting on WeChat, and their vote totals will be joined with the Facebook vote totals to determine the winner, whose identity will be shared with fans in the near future.

In addition to the fan vote, we’re also happy to share with you some new figure images, including new Transformers: Robots in Disguise Mini-Cons, the hotly anticipated Transformers Generations: Titans Return Leader Class Power Master Optimus Prime, Transformers Generations: Combiner Wars G2 Bruticus Series Pack, and the brand new line of Transformers Generations Alt-Modes, featuring classic G1 styling and fun and innovative instant conversions!

Images and information can be found at the links above or below. Please let us know if you have any questions about the Fan Vote or the new figures.


For your convenience, here's a round-up of all of the news stories posted this morning. Please post comments about each subject in their respective topics. Thanks!

Well look at it this way, The Botcon Headmaster Scorponok is a pretty good representation of the character, and the Year of the Snake Omega Supreme is also a great representation of the charcater. Meanwhile Trypticon has had only one modern update... in the form of a legion class recolor of Cybertron Scourge.

Ideally I wish all three could be done, but as of now it's either a Titan OS to go with Titan Devastator, Titan Trypicon to go with Titan Metroplex, or Titan Scorponok to go with Titan Fortress Maximus.

I agree that Trypticon needs the most love. Scorponok and Omega Supreme seem like we'll get them at some point regardless in some form or another. Trypticon, on the other hand, is a special case because of his primary mode being so unique and large. As much as I'd love to see Scorponok done right, I think Trypticon is the more unique option.

I don't disagree with you but I'm voting for Scorponok solely bc a Titan Class Scorponok will bring us that much closer to getting the Black Zarak recolor. :-D

I reserve judgment on Fort Max until I see pics of the actual figure. But I am quite happy with my original (NOT encore) Fort Max who turned 28 this year, so the new one has to really impress me, especially if it will have Metroplex's price tag, or possibly even more expensive, considering the changes made to the body. I wasn't impressed with Metroplex, so it will be tough. As for the voting, put me down for Scorponok. I never cared about the other 2. Maybe if Hasbro revealed some sketches or crude designs regarding the 3 figures, I would vote for 1 of the others. I would like to see a Trypticon done WFC style. But I'm not voting for a brick dinosaur or a Godzilla knock off.

Oh man. I love difficult decisions like these. Such a huge fan of all of these toys and characters. Whichever one is picked we all win!

So, our choices are either Titan Metroplex's rival, Titan Devastator's rival, or Titan Fort Max's rival?

Meh, I ain't voting anyway.

(deja vu, amirite)

Then what is the point of your post if you're choosing to be non-productive?

Fan votes are a bit of a scam, there's too much work that goes into a figure like this. The figure is already made, and that will just be the result, or else they have repaintS ready to go.

As someone who does not wish to use Facebook - I guess that is me out of the voting then.

I would vote Scorponok - as he suits the theme best and I want Hasbro to have the chance for complaints about making substandard toys to filter through to increase the chances that a Trypticon that they do eventually make is a thus a toy worth having in terms of product quality but also one that does not need to be needlessly polluted by a Headmaster Gimmick he has no need off.

If Trypticon is a 2018 or 2019 item then whatever the them is by then might suit him better.

I do still want a Metro Titan toy though too.
