Titans Return Legends Roadburn aka Chase Revealed

Posted by william-james88 Dec 29, 2016 at 7:23am CST 50,694 views
We found something pretty cool on the Talk Transformers Facebook page, an image of Titans Return Roadburn in package. This will be part of the second wave of 2017 figures, along with Legends Brawn. While they are using the name Roadburn, this is essentially throttlebot Chase. It is using the Titans Return Bumblebee mold.

Hubcap gets the shaft again.

This still looks nice though.

Weird! I was just staring at a pic of Bumblebee last night thinking, I wonder if they could retool his alt mode just a little to be Cliffjumper. Then I thought, who else could a red repaint be?

There's my answer! :lol:
I'm glad it's not Cliff for a change.

Usually I will buy everything in CHUG but if they made a cliffjumper I'd pass on it. I've god the GDO prime cliffjumper with a G1 head and I'm good. It's great to finally have a G1 cliffjumper with no mold relation to Bumblebee.

How does that make sense, this isnt even cliffjumper. Wouldnt it be a shaft if he was once again just a redeco, like Chase is here?

Ya. My first thought was, maybe Cliff can get a new mold!

Sorry having a brain fart. Have we seen a review confirming or dispelling the belief that Bee can hold a TM as a pilot?

Yeah what is up with people thinking Bumblebee can't hold a Titan master? Even gnaw can hold one. It looks like he disturbanly eats one but he can hold one. Even kickback can.

If they're doing redecoes/new-head redecoes again so soon, I really hope they bring out Eject and Frenzy some time soon because I am actually adoring these cassettes; Rewind and Buzzsaw so far have just been incredible. I kinda like carting their cassette modes around in my pocket and their weird third modes are so cute and goofy.

nice to have another reveal, even if it is a repaint. I guess its nice that they add to the randomness of the line throwing in a little of everything that can in from 84-88 that wasn't released in CW (sans Optimus and Megatron which get multiple re-releases). I was hoping to see some more cassette tablet bots for legends class, to go with Soundwave & Blaster, but I guess time will tell. If there are 6 waves in TR, and 3 Legends in each wave, then there are still 7 spots coming. But that's 7 spots for any minibot, casettebot, throttlebot, most deluxe insecticons etc... I would have included the Battlehargers, but they were released in Japan, both as repaints of Blackjack from CW, I don't think Hasbro would copy that, but then again, you never know.

Seems to be that Hasbro wants to exclusively have toys that can interact with Titan Masters in this line, so we can probably count out redecoes of Legends class figures from previous lines. Which is a shame, 'cos I'd totally love some redecoes out of what we got in CW.

Every CW Legends figure except bombshell was redecoed to something else or from a previous line

Lol, true


also, speaking of interactive play, do all the Legends Class that are not tablets have the ability to have a TM heads as pilots? I have seen this with Wheelie, but not with any of the bots from wave 3 (BB, Gnaw or Kickback). I've seen some online reviews, but nothing that shows they have any integration with a Titan Master head, can anyone confirm?

It just seems to me that Buzzsaw was meant to be in the TR line, but since he was ready, and some other others were not, they just threw him into the end of CW.

Video Reviews have shown the wave 3 Legends do work with Titan Masters, Bumblebee has the same idea as Wheelie, Gnaw can "eat" them (they are stored in his mouth, and Kickback has posts on his back for a Titan Master near were his cockpit used to be.

To me it felt a bit more like they didn't have room for him in TR and there was space in CW, so they might as well. After all, the way things were laid out; the only Autobot Cassettes we've got so far were in Wave 1 - the same wave Blaster came out - and the only Decepticon Cassettes we've got so far were in Wave 2 - the same wave Soundwave came out. And Legends Wave 2 was already filled, so might as well chuck one of the birds into CW. Buzzsaw was probably chosen because he's less popular than Laserbeak and the later waves of a line aren't expected to sell as much as the start or middle. That's just me though; either way I think everyone agrees he's basically just the first TR figure but he happened to be in another line.
