It's not known who the previously-unseen figure is for sure obviously, as this is a leak, but he has been a long-rumored figure, and the context of the photo (seemingly G1 Crosshairs jokingly in the place of Movie Crosshairs, racing TLK Barricade) seems to point toward Crosshairs being the correct assumption. However, the other obvious theory is that this is actually Orion Pax, as TFormers notes the blue tint of the windshield, and the distinctive (yet small) Cybertron Elite Guard insignia on his side.
So is this figure Pax or 'Hairs? Please discuss and decide down in the forums, after looking at the photo below!

That screams Orion Pax to me....not to mention that the paint apps on the figure and the guns seem more reminiscent of something Takara would do rather than Hasbro.
It really looks like Orion Pax, you can see the IDW picture that i posted and it has the exact color of it.

Compare to his G1 targetmaster which was also a Kup repaint

Orion makes sense too as Kup would've been his contemporary perhaps and hence share the same mould. + I already have a good generations Orion whereas it would be nice to have a character that hasn't been given an update yet.

Yeah. Hopefully we get a crosshairs head, as we already have a Pax one.

Convex's head is quite a bit narrower than my other Titan Masters. On the Autobot side I have Hot Rod, Chromedome and Sawback and on the Decepticon side I have Galvatron, Scourge and Fangry. All heads have no issue swapping with each other although I do have to slide all heads into and out of Hot Rod's slot at an angle along the rear of his neck.D-Maximus_Prime wrote:My Kup's hips are sort of loose, but they are not enough that he flops around. Just a smidge loose, nothing more than that.
As for Perceptor, I think that is sort of based on how much stress you are willing to put on the head swap, and some luck. My Perceptor is pretty good, but Rodimus Prime and Diac are troublesome with going on any body, even Prime's own body.
Thanks for the Kup info. I guess mine is just a fluke so I'm willing to play the exchange game until I get one that isn't floppy.
I actually tried quite a bit of force with Perceptor as well as trying to insert heads from different angles. I'm not sure if this is a widespread issue or if this is an occasional fluke based on the following:RodimusConvoy13 wrote:My Kup also had some loose hips. I fixed them with some napkins on the ball joints. I don't know if it's a widespread issue.
My Perceptor can have different heads other than Convex.
Do those heads just slide in like the average Titan Master or are you using a bit of force? I'm becoming hopeful that a simple exchange will solve my problems.
They slide in pretty easily. Sorry for the long quote, but on my phone so hard to edit. I got Topspin's head in with no issues.

This post has been found on the Ozformers Facebook page:
They are here after all... the Autobot trio from Wave 4 TR Deluxe.
Found at a couple of BigW stores in NSW today, Kup, Perceptor and Topspin, for $25 each.
Hopefully they show up elsewhere as well, and not be just a small number of cases that end up at just a few stores of one retailer.

Sadly is looks like Pax, Crosshairs would have more Blue. It is a shame given he would be easy to do

having 2 deluxes side-by-side like that would be impossible with a standard box-set as the *top* would be to narrow. Considering the Decepticon Logo it could either be just a display platform, or perhaps the top of the Trypticon box.

I don't think it's a boxset. The boxes do have an Autobot/Decepticon logo on the top, but not far from that are circles showing each character in the box - and the top of the box we see on the picture does not have said circles showing any character. It's probably just Broadside or Overlord or something.

It's obvious from the begining it's Orion, the G1 Kup was already repainted the same way.
I even predicted it some pages ago (yes you can check).
I in fact, don't even understand why somebody would think crosshairs first by seing the picture instead of Orion.
Real question, for me it's like seeing a yellow F1 and guessing Sureshot instead of Dragstrip.. I don't get it.
Or is there something I missed (rumours etc) that would made seombody want to guess Crosshairs first?

If it is Crosshairs then i'll be dissapointed cause they'll probably just repaint Grimlock into Pinpointer or whatever **** rename Hasbro pulls out their ass.
Hasbro confirmed that for whatever reason they're not doing the blue cassettes. It's weird.

Do you talk about the little robot by itself, or the head ?
I hate Kup's head, really, this sculpt is terrible to me. I like the overral sculpt of Kup but the head is definitely a turnoff. I don't want this head to be an Orion Pax one.
(And I think the same about Takara's one, different issues but still Meh)
Prime Target wrote: and theres repaint potential for Brawn into Outback
They'll probably do a swerve in my opinion.
Without the Shield, Brawn looks like Thrilling 30 Swerve.

#IGotPrimeOnIt
And given all these boxsets so far have had a modicum of effort put into it by giving different faceplates (aside from obvious cases where it's not necessary; ie Laser Prime and Magnus Prime), I can imagine boxset Orion Pax here wouldn't use Kup's face.

I mean its not a bad Orion Pax...but no way that's Crosshairs.

Crosshairs was noted to have the same basic form as TR Kup, plus he already was one of the rumored characters. Plus, the Club had plans to redeco the first Gen. Kup as Crosshairs using the BotCon Hoist/Electrons head.
And I wouldn't rule him out just yet. We don't even know what kind of release this is: Hasbro, TakaraTomy, or eHobby even. It could be anything. The presence of a product code on the toy would indicate a Hasbro release, we could even guess what kind, but I don't think they'd stamp those on samples.

Yes, Crosshairs was mentioned while Orion Pax wasnt. Not saying this is Crosshairs, just pointing out why some people might think it is:

Well I would prefer (and I'm betting many others) for the Autobot Targetmasters to be done instead of another non "Master" toy, especially another Prime variant. Also Hasbro did show that a Crosshairs from Kup is possible, as they thought about doing it before. (Which was also the inspiration for my TR Crosshairs Digibash)

Looking at that picture of the G1 toy again proves to me that can't be Crosshairs. If it was, he'd be entirely blue aside from a red cockpit. There's too much red here for it to be Crosshairs.
Heck, the tire rims would have to be red too.

Boooooo.
I reckon Crosshairs should have a new mould that could be retooled into Spoilsport. Pointblank could work as a Hot Rod retool me thinks.

I don't mind which - it looks enough like Crosshairs to pass for him and Orion is a nice nod to the G1 reissue. Also even if it is Crosshairs - it's easy enough to buy 2 of them and put the Powermaster Prime head on one of them to make an Orion anyway.

Yeah, it does seem to be Pax. He even seems to have the lighter blue on the top of his legs/truck bed, just like the e-Hobby Orion Pax above.
(Also - are his cannons translucent-blue painted over with light blue, or is it just shiny dark-blue paint on the barrels that's tricking my eyes? Anyone who has TR Kup: Do his cannons share a plastic color with any other parts on him, and could that plastic be swapped out with a translucent color?)

Bleh, of course it's literally the day after my Big W completely removes the peg for TR Deluxes. Well, at least it means there's a chance that they'll be more widely available! I'll just have to keep a sharp(er) eye out for the next few weeks.

Kup's guns are cast in the same gray plastic his thighs, feet, waist, and parts of Flintlock are cast in. I was pondering the guns in that photo too. I think that detail is a darker or metallic paint app.Qwan wrote:(Also - are his cannons translucent-blue painted over with light blue, or is it just shiny dark-blue paint on the barrels that's tricking my eyes?

While I stick by the first half of my post, I'd like to retract that last sentence. Not sure what I was thinking. I just scanned a handful of Primes on my shelves and that is just wrong. Primes feet are almost always blue. Except Movie, and Prime Prime.

Ah, yes, but Orion Pax's feet were originally...
...red??
I guess it might be a molding thing, like if they wanted multiple other parts in the same tree to be gray and they'd already used their paint budget, or something. And now, let's compare to the other candidate!
Crosshairs, of course, has black feet so that doesn't align either - BUT. In his vehicle mode, he does have silver stripes in pretty much that exact spot! It's actually a bit surprising how well that detail lines up, so, more evidence for it being Crosshairs I guess?
It's also worth noting that while the extensive red on the vehicle seems to be more accurate to Pax, both he and Crosshairs have blue arms in robot mode (at least based on their original toys), meaning that the apparent red arms on this figure aren't accurate to either toy! Cartoon Orion had red arms, which could lend credence to it being a cartoon-accurate Takara/E-Hobby Pax; but if it is from Hasbro, then it seems strange that it'd be extremely toy-inaccurate either way!
Man, who knows at this point.

Roadburn is ok. Not familiar with the character, but I got it cuz I didn't want bee in this mold, and I'm a sucker for cool car toys. The car looks cool despite being a bit panely. Not crazy about the bot mode, but knew that going in. Head scuplt looks cool though. Overall, things don't feel as nice and tight as on Brawn. Still a decent figure overall.

My collecting of Titans Return started with an impulse buy of Hot Rod at Target - my G1 Hot Rod is in bad shape thanks to an unskilled attempt at articubashing, so he was really appealing. I like him, though I do want to modify him with the Legends versions rotatable engine block. Following that, I have added Kup, Overboard, Titan Master Brawn, Scourge, Blurr, Galvatron, and most recently a second Scourge and Six Shot. I've been meaning to get Loudmouth forever because I want to adapt him for my headless G1 Siren, but I stupidly passed on him the one time I saw him on a peg recently.
Further planned acquisitions: Perceptor, Wheelie, Bumblebee, Roadburn at least for the sake of making Cliffjumper, Legends Brawn, Octane when available, Trypticon if by some miracle I can scrape together the cash, Clobber, Ptero, ideally Nautica, Powermaster Optimus Prime, Blitzwing, Triggerhappy, Chromedome, Hardhead, Kickback, Fort Max if I win the lottery, any other 87 HM/TM characters, maybe Krok (not remotely a match to the AM's kibble but I like padding my 'Con ranks), more of Scourge because I want a Sweep army, maaaaybe Astrotrain
Releases I hope will be forthcoming:
* Deluxe Springer. The obligatory combining twin guns would be good for making the helicopter-mode guns.
* Deluxe Wreck-Gar
* Voyager/Ultra/Leader (however big he'll need to be) Rodimus Prime (using the Chaos on Velocitron face) that stands basically the same height as Galvatron, turns into basically his original cab mode with a cockpit that seats two Titan Masters, and his classic camper shell/Mobile Defense Bay (with plenty of ports and pegs for interacting with Titan Masters. Those three would essentially complete the TFTM set.
* Deluxe Ratchet and Ironhide (keeping to the Titans Return general shtick of "Direct upgrade of the original toy"). It would be so fitting. The detachable platform would go nicely with Titan Master figures, and just the idea of Headmaster versions of those two is highly amusing to me.
* Deluxe Sunstreaker. Possibly a new mold entirely, possibly extensive retool of Generations Tracks/Wheeljack
* Deluxe Hoist and Trailbreaker
* Deluxe Skids and Crosscut. If only for the sake of having a version of the Diaclone scooter that Titan Masters can ride.
* Voyager Starscream, Thundercracker, et al. With the Autobot cars bumped up to Deluxe size, the Decepticon jets need to be bumped up to Voyager to suit. Making them Headmasters eliminates the design worry of hiding the head in altmode, and gives the cockpit something to do.
* Apex Bomber
* Deluxe Arcee retooled as a Titans Return Headmaster
* Supreme (?) Optimus Prime. Voyager size (or at least height) cab robot, classic trailer and Roller but done up for Deluxes and Titan Masters. Might be dreaming
* Supreme (?) Ultra Magnus. Same cab robot, classic UM trailer that leaves his legs free to move in armor mode and that can carry 4 modern Deluxe Autobot cars, Large head + chestplate jet that can seat a Titan Master
* Legends character based on the Powered Buggy, A pipe dream, probably.
* Voyager Dinobots. Would take advantage of "Clobber" and "Ptero".

Titans Return has maybe one more full wave to go before it ends and we move on to Power of the Primes and whatever gimmick that has. So far all we know for certain about Titans Return wave 6 is Slugslinger will be one of the Deluxes. A rumour on 4Chan a few months ago claimed there'll be a Titanmaster Arcee from the Loudmouth mould, and all five Dinobots will be made in 2018, but no one knows if it's true yet.

Probably 2019 so we can keep up the alternating pattern of Autobot-Decepticon-Autobot-Decepticon.
I usually avoid Titans because they're out of my budget and I have little space for them, Devastator is the only Titan I own, but I wouldn't mind a Titan Omega Supreme now you mention it.

My biggest TFs are Cyberton Metroplex and Energon Omega Sentinel.
I have the money, I have the room, but there's a psychological step I'm not sure to want to cross. I'm afraid to be lost forever if I start getting Tf of this size.
