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!

Titans Return is out there people! Not only is it available at retail around the world but even online stores are now shipping them out in the US, like Enertainment Earth which now has the Leaders and Titanmasters in stock.

Which ones are you gonna get right away? Are some a bigger priority than others? Let us know. We have reviews up for many toys if your mind isn't made yet, and we have a new one here from StarblightSkylynx featuring Stripes. Remember that this mold will be redeco'd into Ravage later this year.

Alright... that's cool. Kudos artist.

... looking at the perspective here though, does this mean that Fort Max is on Sentinel's side?
... that's a bit scary.

Whats the difference, you can just buy them online and they come to your door, plus its free shipping over 79$ Buy 2 leaders and shipping is free. It could take another month for theseto be at retail, but the boards will still be filled with fellow americans who aleady own them by then.

I think stripes himself looks decent, I wish the stripe panels could fold down in beast mode though. The plane mode is so stupid though and I absolutely love it. I feel like it's intentionally bad and it's daring you to take it seriously.

Yeah, and people thought it couldn't get worse than Silverbolt... that bar has now been raised :lol:

Yeah his is pretty bad too, I think the rewind mold is the only one that actually pulls off the three modes well.

Agreed! And unlike the others they arent random at all. One is an homage to the casette and the other homages the classics casettes that were turned into tanks while also homaging G1 casettes that turned into tanks.

That plan works better if you're a completionist - if you only want, say, half of any given wave, then that's problematic, as they end up being marked up more when sold individually. Assuming individual figures were in stock (which they aren't in the places I've looked), deluxe class figures have a have a 27% mark up vs. retail, and Legends and Titans class are as much as 40% over retail. :-/

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.

It's a cross-company thing. It's a new iteration of Soundwave that transforms into a tablet.

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

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.

Nice to see these side-by-side for a good comparison. The SDCC version has too much dark red for my tastes. The muted gray helps to break up the over-saturation. If you're into the Burning Convoy look, then he is great. But for me, I'm just afraid my eyeballs will catch fire from looking at him for too long.
