Wow. Where I'm at in Ohio has yet to get any of the Titans Return figures. Distribution is such a pain.
Thank goodness for the Internets.

Thanks man, but I preffer the arm cannon being where it is. It looks great and doesnt inhibit movement, and looks more accurate. The only thing I wished was for his wrist to swivel so it would look better when posed.

Ok, if I miss something it's cause I didn't feel like reading 40 pages to catch up, so summary of my thoughts from what I saw as front page news:
Sixshot: FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF yeah!!! That is my now most desired figure of the line.
Wave 3 titanmasters: I want all but one, whichever one uses the Crashbash/Clobber dino mode thingy.
Deluxes: I'm good with my T30 Brainstorm, but I so want Hot Rod.
Voyager: I will wait on Tankor. I will either get Megatron or Blitzwing (if that is the repaint). all depends on how well Blitzwings body would work with Flywheel's head.

Yeah the canon looks fine. That piece that's mentioned looks okay but shapeways stuff always has that fuzzy look that's really unattractive. Every time I see a review for a shapeways item it just makes me cringe because it doesn't look right. If the colors matched and was smoother without the fuzzy look, sure it'd be nice.

Haha yeah!
I can see what you mean about brainstorm, I love the thrilling 30 one but with having the SDCC one and standing him next to Hatdhead it makes you feel like half the team is complete. I don't get that feeling with the voyager. If by chance you see one at a Walgreens or online and have the spare cash. Get it, it's worth it. I don't even see Blurr when I look at him

Y'know, I never really liked that type of Galvatron head. I prefer three head spike...things, all connected to the forehead (a la G1), not the four horn thing that (I think) IDW started.

Ooo. Dat crown.
I don't know though, I'm still kind of in the mind of friction fitting the Galvatronus head in there instead. Though I might pick up the plug in any case to swap the cannon. Though my issue with it is what's said in the video here already.

One of the few good things about that toy.
Just kidding. It's definitely not the best, but it's not as bad as people say.

Actually u dont need a wrist swivel for Galvatron to fire his cannon "accurately", if there is a thing in G1 show, since sometimes in Sunbow G1 he would reach up under the barrel and pull a trigger. So for that he doesnt need a wrist swivel(although I would love it if he had one)

Wellp, mail person dropped off my Galvatron for me today. I'm actually pretty pleased with it for the most part. I mean yeah, the mask doesn't sit flush with the face like it is supposed to and that is a good reason to give it a bad mark I feel in this case. Also found a nice way try to get the Titan Master properly separated from the socket with turning the head around like its the exorcist (which that kind of crazy isn't exactly new for Galvy
) and gently pull. It comes out pretty easily that way.
Here he is in scale with CW G1 Megs:

Also... of course, way better than the Universe 2008 Galvy by leaps and bounds. I did order online since distribution here in North East Ohio leaves a lot to be desired at the moment.

I didn't know either of those points (really surprised they got Rebirth)but they sometimes make figures they KNOW will sell to Americans, Masterpiece for example.
The distribution for this line has been all over thus far. I find it funny that the Wave 2 Legends are out roughly a month if not more before Soundwave shows up.
Speaking of Soundwave, I realized today that the ramp clips on the back of Blaster are probably meant for Soundwave. Tripticon in Base mode has ramps that lie forward so Sounwave will probably connect backwards into it.

Yes, I would be totally up for a Headmaster Arcee...IF it was done well. It would have to be substantially different from other Headmasters so she retained her classic "Princess Leia Buns" head design. Square head with Arcee face = no sell. Also, the body figure would have to be an original mold. No retools of male figures thank you very much.
Should be Daniel, right? And in the exo suit, right?
It'd almost certainly be Daniel (which is annoying as I personally prefer the "Headmasters are the actual robots, the bodies are lifeless without a head" take on Headmasters). As for the exo-suit, you probably couldn't pull it off without making the head mode look like arse. A titan master vehicle styled after the exo-suit would be neat though.
And yes I am aware she was going to be redecoed from Chromedome, but really I don't think it would work.
I think the best hope for a Headmasters Arcee is Takara. They'll make a heavy remold out of Blurr and an all new Headmaster design that includes the buns. Plus the Titan Master vehicle will look like the exo-suit vehicle mode.
Thing is though, they don't really have any reason to do that. Headmaster Arcee wasn't part of their version of the cartoon, and even if they did get Rebirth (I know they got it years later, but c'mon), it's not exactly that significant.

Masterpiece figures only appeal to American fans as much as they appeal to Japanese fans. They're not made specifically for overseas markets, otherwise they'd probably make more of an effort to actually sell them overseas directly.

If Takara didn't make the Masterpiece line with Americans in mind, there'd be more figures like Star Saber and less like Sideswipe.
