Transformers Titans Return Wave 2 Deluxe and Voyager Class Video Reviews Now Online

Kurona wrote:Having now looked at that review... Chromedome's leg transformation is VERY impressive. I don't have the Dead End mold - not yet, anyway - so I don't know if Dead End's is the same but I assume it's the same accordion thing as the Aerialbots and Offroad? In any case it's still really impressive how the legs transform like that yet still have the cockpit be that accessible. I really love having my Transformers be pilotable in vehicle mode; something about it just feels more... I don't know, authentic and believable to me. So it's definitely a really big selling point.

I really want soundwave for the sake of finally retiring my FoC soundwave off my Classics shelve and he's a cassette playe...in 2016. Rumble and all the other cassette/tablets(except rewind) I'm fighting the urge because I already have the United rumble Frenzy tanks and those are still the best reinterpretations of those guys.

I like my FoC Soundblaster, so I fear not getting the leader class one. Plus, the only cassette I don't have is Laserbeak, and I really want a good Ravage for the Lost Light shelf, otherwise I'm good

Soundwave - FoC Voyager
Rumble - United/Adventure
Frenzy - United/Adventure
Laserbeak - FoC
Buzzsaw - FoC
Ravage - Titans Return/Device Label/Masterpiece/Universe (omg he is hard to decide on)
Overkill - Titans Return dinosaur mode
Wingthing - Titans Return Clobber dragon mdoe

And I don't even have a Ratbat!
Yeah, Wingthing seems a pretty weird choice, but... I think it works.
And as for Slugfest... well. If they're doing Grimlock and Swoop as Titan Masters, they're probably doing the other Dinobots, right? And if they're doing Snarl, they'll probably make Slugfest out of him. Hell, he's more likely than other to get a toy because of that redeco opportunity.

... jeez I need a Squawkbox.

I think sometimes as a fanbase we have a tendancy towards being really entitled.


I get a feeling about that Alpha trion figure that a heavy retool into razorclaw is in it's not so distant future. Everything seems to have a way it can sit into a configuration that looks a shitload like a predaking torso. The lion head on the chest, legs folded up to form thighs, a large waist skirt for the crotch plate, even the titan master cockpit can be shifted onto the top in prime position for a combiner head.

Just where the arm connectors would go is about the only thing I can't figure out, but then the chest has that whole mechanism in it for the springloaded automorph that could be gutted to accomodate more parts, sort of the reverse of how domey shares the dead end tooling but drops the combiner peg to accomodate the cockpit.
