That's why popping ball joints should be done sparingly and carefully... or not at all if it can be helped.

On the subject of redecos/pretools, in the second wave we already have two: Clobber aka Grimlock from Crashbash and Skytread aka Flywheels from Terri-Bull. That has me thinking: the vehicles fit the pretools more than the original releases (Dino/dragon for Clobber, jet/tank for Skytread). Think we can predict Titan Master pretools by their vehicles?

Yay Crashbash

Dunno if anyone has put this up already but here's the same German guy doing a YouTube video review for Loudmouth


Btw dunno if anyone's already checked it out, but Charles A Emanuele has done a video review of Wheelie

Sorry, stu. These have already been posted

That's already old news. Next time, not only check the previous pages, but also look at the date of the video. If it's more than a day old, chances are we already know about it.

Lessee...
Apeface is Apeface.
Nightbeat is a drill-tank/jet; maybe Twintwist/Topspin?

Loudmouth is a hovercar/tank; hovercar could fit a lot of bots, dunno about the rather distinctive tank

Brawn (in the back) is a... a... a thingy. Treaded car maybe, and auhhhhh.... train? bike? sword? bra?

That upside-down doesn't help...

Seriously, what is it?
Well whatever, the armored... car seems Brawn-esque as it is.

I think a motorcycle of some kind, maybe? Speederbike?

Tracked jeep and badass chopper with tracks to me

Wow, the head and the vehicle are a lot smaller than I thought. Big enough to be a Legend's ..target master?

While i am very excited to own a bunch of titan masters, I think I will wait as well for Clobber. It a more fun head to toss around on bots and I wontbe getting 2 of each triple changer (unless prices drop like crazy again).

The little guys are $5 MSRP, right? At that price, I may get both.

EDIT: The more I look at that gallery, the harder it gets to wait.

I believe so yes. They are going to be around Prime minicon prices in stores.

And I know, I can't wait for these guys too! We're in that void between lines where months go by with nothing new, so this is very anticipated here!

THIS!!! This is what is driving me nuts. I like going to Target or TRU and stuff on my lunch looking for new things. I know that I'm not going to see any new Transformers for another few months and it just makes my lunches boring. I suppose I could get off my ass and exercise on my lunch, but, really, how is that fun?

A good spotify list and some imagination makes for some fun stuff, it's what I do

And considering I have now seen wave 6 in stores for almost 2 months, I'm ready for what happens next!

Eh, even imagining I'm a Rock Star gets dull after a while.

While 5$ is the MSRP, stores may charge more, like BBTS which charges a 40% premium.

The Skyreign deluxes havent hit my area yet so there is new stuff to get if everit comes. Plus, many americans have yet to spot Skylynx in stores.

I did luck out there. So far that's the only place I found him for a decent price and I really got lucky since they had just restocked. And that was a month and a half ago, wow...

Well the average right now is that new waves come out every 3 months. So if you get it early in that three month window, then for sure it will take a whil to get the next one. I got my combaticons barely a month ago, so I am not as antsy about new stuff, especialyl since CW Wave 2 2016 should be coming out any time now.

Well technically you ARE exercising if you are going to Target AND TRU. Get those steps in!!

My local TRU finally has the Combaticon deluxes, the "G1" deluxes (Ironhide/Prowl/Sunstreaker/other bot I can't remember), but only Motormaster and Battle Core voyagers. I accidentally walked passed the Transformers section multiple times at Target, as they had 3 pegs of combined RiD/CW

Distribution has been very wonky in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. The Combaticon limbs were out for a short while right around the end of December and beginning of January. Then they quickly dried up and were replaced with the Sky Reign Autobot limbs, which have quickly saturated the shelves. Meanwhile, it took until March for any Onslaughts to pop up, and now you can't find the deluxe Combaticons anywhere. I had to order Onslaught from TFSource after finding the Combaticon deluxes around Xmas. I only ever spotted Sky Lynx ONCE in the wild at my local Target, and it wasn't even on the shelf! Luckily, a friendly employee there who knows me saw it and put Sky Lynx aside, figuring I'd be in that day to check out the Transformers stock. They didn't even have Sky Lynx entered in their system yet. The manager decided to price it at $17.99. Nice deal!

Great story! And yeah that disribution is all over the place in schedulign then. But thats why I just called it an average. 4 waves, 12 months, should be every 3 months but that seems to be askign too much

Here in Northwestern Ohio, U.S.A., where I live, Transformers distribution is really strange. Take CW, for example, where the only figures on shelves right now are the Optimus Maximus and Combaticon limbs, the waves 1 & 3 Legends, Voyagers Silverbolt, Motormaster, and (not)Scattorshot, and Leader Armada Megatron. I hope distribution isn't as strange with Titans Return. I'm personally exited for Galvatron and Scourge, mainly because I already have CW Cyclonus. For those who are saying "get Universe 2.0 Cyclonus and the older Generations Scourge, they're a 1,000,000 times better," I don't feel like going on EBay for an older figure when I already have a recent figure of one of those characters and a new figure of the other one is coming out soon. I also don't want the Platinum set. Oh, and Universe 2.0 Galvatron sucks.

I hear you. But I would still get Universe Cyclonus only because unlike the others you mention, its his own unique mold. And plus, he would be in scale with the new TR Scourge and hes not that expensive. Or else you end up with a voyager Galvatron, a voyager Cyclonus and a deluxe Scourge. Dont know how you might feel about it.

Also, if you care, those exact figures are being rereleased this year so no need of going on e-bay if you dont want to:



You do as you wish, but I did want you to know what all your options were in case you cared.

I don't really care about scale at all. I am fully aware of the Platinum set, but I can't really afford Platinum sets and that one just doesn't appeal to me at all.

Edit: I also kinda like the idea of Galvatron and Cyclonus being taller than Scourge. I don't know why.

It's a great figure, and an even better torso, go for it man, you won't regret it

I already have a CW Cyclonus. I was just saying why I decided to keep my CW Cyclonus instead of getting a Universe 2.0 Cyclonus and that I am going to be displaying him with Titans Return Galvatron and Scourge.
