Theyabtill never released the face of the Magnus Titan master have there? Probably the Ginrai face I imagine.
I remember hearing this is a pre-release so it's probably going to be for online retailers
Later as a mass release.

I wish Hasbro would go ahead and let us know how it will be available later.

Online. It will be an online exclusive for 29.99-39.99 I guarantee
Like I said for over 6 months Slugslinger and Ramhorn were the last new retail figures for Titans Return and Arcee and this Magnus were probably the only figures that got to production for one of the box sets and they decided to can the rest because Titans Return box figures and make Arcee and Magnus a con exclusive then sell the rest to online exclusives.

I mean, they could've placed Slugslinger in with the previous wave of Windblade, Twintwist, and Misfire making it a four figure wave of all new figures. Ditto for Ramhorn being placed with Shuffler and Repugnus.
Even if brick & mortar stores are slow to get them (which always seems to be the case) online dealers would sell the whole wave as one item and it would be easy to get them. I have the WB, TT, and Misfire because I was able to buy them as one item.
He also would've come out sooner. Instead, there's a good chance the last wave will never make it to stores. They'll be something you'll have to hope gets dumped at Ross half a year from now.
Instead. Slugslinger is released as the only new item in a wave of rereleases. We'll be lucky if we ever see him in stores and online stores are lumping him in with Kup and Hot Rod as one item which is a pretty bad deal (Ramhorn will probably suffer the same fate)

Maybe maybe not. It's not surprising they filled the final wave with previous wave figures. The final wave of Dark cybertron was Arcee and Chromia and they were either a full case or a mix of previous waves. I think I saw them once at a store but I picked them up online. Same with Slugslinger. I got lucky to snag one at Ages three and up last week and he's awesome.

I see now. But Ramhorn wouldnt be the same problem since Ramhorn is wave 5, not wave 6. So he is not a tail ender like Slugslinger is and will be more easily found in stores. And yes, I do agree that switching out Slugslinger for Wolfwire between waves 5 and 6 would have been a smarter move in case retailers do not stock the last wave (as was the case with Skylynx last year).

Question is, are we getting a wave 6 of Titan Masters? If not wave 5 is the tail end for this size class until PotP.

Yes, it just won't contain anything new. Much like how Voyager Wave 6 is Optimus and Octone.

I didn't see it mentioned earlier in the thread but I have see it mentioned on other sites. Does anyone else have a problem getting Octone's cab section to stay tabbed together?

We've heard a fair amount about the new Arcee figure being offered as an early access Transformers exclusive (meaning it will also hit retail eventually) at Hascon, as part of the Titans Return toyline. The set also includes cards with tech specs, an Ultra Magnus diecast Titan Master (sporting the colour scheme of the original white Optimus cab), and the regular Arcee head Titan Master Daniel / Leinad. You can now check it all out in our in-hand gallery here at Seibertron.com!

Wow Arcee looks good. I hope the quality of her plastic is as good as Blurr's.

Is it me, or does Nautica fit this mold well enough but not so much for Arcee?

It looks like a Great figure, but can we agree that Ultra Magnus' head does not go On Arcees Body, theres just something disturbing about that.

Not bad, not bad at all. I'm really holding myself back from wanting her too much since I know there's basically zero chance of ever getting a hold of her where I am ("wider release" means nothing on my end if it's not full mass-retail), but boy is it hard not to NEED this so much. As an updated design for the classic 80s Arcee, she looks fantastic! Ultra Magnus is fine I guess, really not much to say here, it's Ultra Magnus' face on a Titan Master, coolio.
And yeah Riddler, I know it's a bit of a late response now but I have a helluva time trying to keep my Octone's cab together. Eh, I can live with it since it's not too bad, but I suppose it is a little frustrating that it's so eager so split right down the middle.

I really want it specially since I missed out on Generations Arcee,but either I want her.

If anything I feel the opposite! Not complaint though, I'm still thrilled that we got nautica at all (less so that she's difficult and expensive to get hold of...)
Arcee is a must buy for me but I can't help but wonder what nautica would look like with this tooling of the bonnet/shield section, my gut says it would have worked a lot better but I'm not certain either way
