You can tell that half the world is already experiencing Titans Return. Not only is the first wave out, but we now have reviews for the second wave deluxes Chrome Dome and Highbrow. We had a bunch of in hand images yesterday and today we get Chinese videos showcasing their transformation and features.

Another Titans Return related tidbit that warrants mentioning is the exclusivity of Titans Return Brainstorm. While we knew it was coming first as part of a SDCC exclusive set, there was an assumption that he would also get an individual release. However, an older interview with Hasbro surfaced on our boards with them saying that this Blurr retool was currently only planned to be available in this exclusive box set and would not be sold individually. While this wasn't known for certain, this shouldn't be such a big surprise since none of the rumours and confirmed Titans Return waves for 2017 include Brainstorm as a solo release.

Then I'll just have to get Voyager Brainstorm and balance his head really carefully on him.

Or, now bear with me here, buy voyager brainstorm since it's an amazing figure, and is probably a bit better than the titans return one.

Though this revelation about brainstorm does make me think a bit more about my hypothesis the Blurr mold we be used similar to CW silverbolt with the base mold release (blurr), a slight retool (Brainstorm), and an extensive purple retool (Nautica).

Oh no, I totally get you there. Nothing against Voyager Brainstorm.
... just that there's a bit of a problem in that I want him to scale with the other headmasters. The Voyager's way too big.

Pretty sure that voyager Brainstorm's head will not be compatible with Titan's return unless things have changed since I last heard about it.

Fellow Seibertronians, following on from our first set of Titans Return video reviews - and thanks to fellow fan Broadside 92, we get two more video reviews showcasing Voyager Class Sentinel Prime and Astrotrain, both of whom share a triple-changing mold consisting of a Cybertronian train and shuttle. Both video's have been mirrored, so check them out and let us know what you think of them in the comments below.

I really hope this person is just a bit dim and it's not actually that hard to put the headmasters in.

Having the voyager brainstorm, and with the small balljoints in the headmasters, I use extreme caution when interacting with the headmaster, so, I'll be just as cautious with these new ones...

Speaking of Voyager Brainstorm, I got him off the shelf in preparation for the return of the titans. He surprisingly made me even more excited for it! :D
I'll probably be displaying him at the back, I don't really mind that he's bigger. Still hope to get that deluxe, though...

It's a great figure; I'd be waiting for a TT release at this point, unless you get the sdcc set

Probably won't be. C'mon Takara, don't let me down! ;)

They likely won't in this case ;)

But are you guys ok with him having a mouth instead of a faceplate? Because if takara does do him, they will surely give him the show accurate head.

Uh, yeah... I literally have no connection to him, not from the g1 cartoon, nor the japanesse one, nor the comics, so yeah - that plus the fact that it would further differentiate it from my voyager class one ;)

I probably won't mind. But if I do, I can just plop the Voyager head on it or something...

That doesn't actually work...

I know it won't lock in, but can't it just balance there?
