Cuz Galvatron's a Voyager, not a Leader. Leaders get big "G1 Scorponok"-esque helmet heads to bulk up the tiny Titan Master heads up to Leader-sized heads.

sadly however you cant do that with blaster or soundwave :(

Soundwave and Sixshot look like they have Headmaster heads with no brains.

My Triggerhappy and Twinferno came in today. They're both great, but Triggerhappy is clearly the better of the two. Unfortunately, my Twinferno came with two of the same gun (the left side one, from the wielder's perspective) rather than mirrored guns to create the proper Titan Master sled. I've emailed BBTS about this, but I probably won't hear back until Monday because it's the weekend. So learn from this when shopping, carefully look at the guns before you buy.

Thought this looked rather cool, was faffing around with Astrotrain then started overly decorating with weapons. Does this make a good base mode?

*RANDOM THOUGHT* Maybe Skullsmasher can be retooled into Grotesque?

Bloody hell, that would require very little retooling.
... in theory, at least. I don't think it'd be able to balance on two legs like the original toy.

Otherwise this is an awesome idea

This is too coincidental to not be at least considered by Hasbro/Takara.


If not a retail toy perhaps it could be a Hasbro convention exclusive.

It would need to be a heavy retool. I'm pretty sure most convention exclusives aren't that highly retooled for alt mode. He would need a new beast head, new back legs, wings, and modified front arms at least.

A Grotusque is rumored to be in the works. Supposedly he'll be the same size as Repugnus ;)

That said, I finally saw Astrotrain and Alpha Trion in store! Almost picked one up too, but eh, getting really picky.

As I tend to use their data pads inside them and not the remote control / launcher thingie - but if you do use that in their chests there is a spot the titanmaster fits inside it flat so it can then slip inside the chest to store. I agree it would have been nice to be able to leave them inside the helmet though.

But that gap in the back of Blaster and Soundwave's neck is useful for storing any spare head you might have. and about another 4 can slip inside their chests too. More if folded up. Other things that fit inside TR Blaster and Soundwave's chests include a G1 Cassette while still in it's Takara style case and also some of the RID Minicons fit too.

I've been saying this from the beginning, it's about time someone else saw how amazing this would be. ;)^ Only changes required are new beast back legs, new smaller claws on the arms, maybe new shoulders, and a new beast head. He'd need a new tail, too, but I wonder if his gun could double as a tail since the original figure had a double tail anyway.

Image

Wings might be too tricky to include at this price point, they're pretty big. Might have to either shrink them down and double them as a shield and Titan Master vehicle or load them with holes to reduce the cost.

That said, I feel like it's more likely they'll just remold Twinferno with new bot arms that combine together in alt mode to make the beast head. That way they've got all the necessary parts for alt mode fit right in.

Could there be a way for them to use parts from Twinferno and Skully's legs?

Yeah and not all spiders are venomous but I'm still not going anywhere near the creepy looking things! :-P


In your country they are, they ALL are.

One point I want to stress is, that Revolver is VERY difficult to remove from Six Shot's helmet. I have to push up on the head band, and then sorta wedge a figure under the chin. I'm leaving it in for fear of drawing blood.
