Fellow Seibertronian bodrock has finally found Titans Return Sixshot as US retail. More specifically, he found it at TaRget, in Portland Oregon, the city where the 90s never ended. Here is what he had to say:

All I wanted was Repugnus & Shuffler today, maybe Kup, Percy or Topspin if I saw 'em....Sixshot ended my hunt due to his price tag.


This is the first sighting of this toy at a brick and mortar store in the US. We have yet to spot Sky Shadow , Broadside, Brawn or Roadburn at US retail so if any of you do, please let us know!

Yeah but the mold was literally the G2 Prime design. The one we got at retail is the predeco 8-}


Very good point indeed. Have a cookie :)

Anything else aside from his face and helmet?

Anyone who has Megatron: how do you get the bloody legs to work in alt mode? I cannot get his tank mode close to the ground and the legs just won't work

Right, yeah, that's the one other annoying thing I forgot about him. There's slots in his upper thighs for the lower legs to tab into. They're a bugger to actually get plugged in and I always dread getting to them; they're so easy to miss too at first.

So I know it's not the best megatron, but he's pretty damn cool

I'd be all over that Megatron if he were either a nice flat grey or a good shiny silver. That weird "Almost but not quite metallic" grey that's trying sooooo hard to be silver just looks horrible. The use of stickers kinda sucks too. Did Hasbro forget how tampographs work?

You just might be able to peg a Titan Master into the front guns on Cosmos.

I saw them but can't get to them. I got one leg to work but not the other. I'm scared to force it any more than I have

I'd have liked a repaint, myself. Something gunmetal grey like a stereotypical flying saucer (tho Cosmos echos the UFOs from the old Mars Attacks! cards, which is just delightful!), maybe using that Scrounge head for extra B-movie alien robot-ness. But hey, more Cosmos is never a bad thing. Hope this version actually casts the head in red instead of just painting it...

Give me my pathfinderrrrrrr :-(


Wasn't there supposed to be a Beachcomber coming soon? Why do I get the feeling Cosmos was a last minute replacement for a different figure they didn't have ready in time.

Ok, got Megatrons legs to work. Wow is this figure difficult. I'm having a ton of difficulty with him. He is very fiddly and not really much fun at the moment.

Beachcomber was rumored, but never properly confirmed. Cosmos was in the plans for a good while, he even got a product code that's in line with the rest of his wave.

I am so sorry that your experience with these figures you were hotly anticipating havent panned out too well.

Another speculation for a Firepower set: Voyager Megs in G2 deco?

Hopefully I'll find the deluxes and they will be better soon. Sixshot was a hot letdown and Megatron isn't that good either. I wasn't even going to get him, it was an impulse buy. Sigh

Or flywheels using that mold maybe

I suppose I'll throw my theory of the next box sets out there

Firepower: God Bomber, Shockwave from Galvatron (might sound odd however he's the only voyager to not have a second use yet), bomb burst from mindwipe or possibly crosshairs from Kup, wingspan, and I have no idea for the Titan master maybe black zarak.

Intelligence: leaders are hard since there's not too many uses you can get out of the current molds but I really think Dia Atlas is a good candidate seeing as how the base mode for sky shadow is based on his original one, vector prime out of alpha trion, I like the magnificus idea but I think carnivac is more likely, cloudraker, and maybe shockwave as the Titan master if he's not the voyager in the other set.

Given that most of the rumors that have come out have been true I honestly think that these are real possibilities. Except magnificus and dia atlas since they weren't rumored, but neither was metalhawk and here we are.

For Firepower and Intelligence heads, maybe Sunstreaker and Shockwave for Firepower, Wheeljack and Starscream for Intelligence?
