Official stock images of Sentinel Prime from next year's Transformers Titans Return toy line

Cool though he is, I think I'll wait for the inevitable Astrotrain retool.

Those are some heels the figure has.

That is the lamest robot pose I have seen in a while.

Some Transformers have gorilla arms. Sentinel, however is looking like he WANTS to have gorilla arms.

Why is he standing as if he was about to start a rap battle?

Waitaminit... IT'S ORANGE ASTROTRAIN!

Why the helld didnt we get ASTROTRAIN from the start, and have that guy as a collector Club instead? It boggle the mind.

Cuz then we'd be complaining that the Club gave us an ORANGE ASTROTRAIN.

He does actually look good. I am very strongly considering getting him

I'll be getting Sentinel Prime and any repaint he could get.

Gotta hide those gaping holes somehow

He's showing off his big gun turrets that make him look beefy and boss and apex-armored off

Fixed.

alright how long until astrotrain?

I could see the inevitable Astrotrain retool or redeco (if they just change the head on these is it still a retool?) using the spaceship fronts for his feet instead of the train fronts. It looks like you already could use them on Sentinel if you wanted. Also, is it just me or does Blaster's headmaster without the helmet look like Perceptor?

I just spent a good chunk of change on a Henkei Ashrotrain so I'm reluctant to replace him as my astrotrain. But I also got a vector prime that I was using as Sentinel. So either way, something is replaced. Seriously though, I'm hoping we see a release for Nova Prime.

But it made sense!!! He has his apex armor look and he is big and beefy!!

Wow. I just noticed the orange plastic on the top is a cockpit which houses the headmaster.

Stupid Prognostication Time! Anyone think the smaller headmasters from IDW's past are taking bodies of dead Transformers and using them? I seem to recall Soundwave getting blasted in the head once, and he's a potential retool for Blaster (if the past few toys have been evidence).

Well, I am excited for a Prime Figure who isn't Optimus (Or Roddy) and is someone who's been in the mythos for a while but never got more than a few pages attention. So this is cool. Does it fit into my collection? Me thinks not, but I will probably have to buy in.

While there's nothing about the figure that specifically says Sentinel Prime to me (in my mind Sentinel will always be a blue and orange pick-up truck with a snow plough), It does look good and I'd like to have it. I don't know very much about Astrotrain as a character, so I'm not eagerly anticipating the inevitable retool, but if the colour scheme on Astrotrain looks good I'll more than likely get both versions of the mould.

Kinda bugs me that the vehicles are in scale with each other but not with the figure that rides in them.

Sabrblade wrote:Those are some heels the figure has.

Yeah, gotta wonder if the inevitable retool will reverse the legs and use the nosecone halves as the feet instead.

Well that's because this is based on IDW Sentinel Prime who was orange and not on the Animated Sentinel.

Am I the only one who's bothered by the fact that he'll have next to NO articulation with his head? Those two massive panels on either side of it block it from turning almost at all. I have no attachment to the character, and the colors are giving Victorion a run for her money in the eye-searing department.

Everyone thinks Sentinel will be repainted as Astrotrain, but watch Hasbro throw us a curve ball and do a straight repaint, head and all, as Armada Jetfire just because.

But seriously, I don't know if it's been mentioned since this thread is way longer than I have time to read, but does anyone else think Galvatron has potential to be remolded into Energon Megatron? Wouldn't take much work, they could make a new Titan Master for him that looks like Armada Megatron though the horns might be troublesome.

I think the Individual Titan Masters may be able to combine with their vehicles to make heads for Fortress Maximus. I could be wrong, they seem too small, but Crashbash's beast's sides look like the sides of a helmet and the handle peg could act as a neck. We haven't seen these guys in weapon mode so who knows what else they're hiding.

They really need to give us a Star Saber in this line. The way the larger figures do their heads are perfect for him and a great call back to the Brainmasters. An IDW style figure would be a lot of fun.

This guy rocks, and I think wins the award for smartest and most unobtrusive panel design ever

Technically they're all based on stormbringer astrotrain

IDW Sentinel wasn't, though:

Wow, that's quite a disparity, he would've made a cool toy though; well, then, the toy at least is based on stormbringer astrotrain (I grew up reading that in high school, it's so cool we're getting a toy from that series )

Heh, in my mind Sentinel will always be a big red rosenbauer fire engine. I don't like this figure much at all. It just doesn't seem very interesting and the bright orange seems a bit garish for what's not a paritcular exciting looking robot.

2 years til the til the 15th birthday of Energon... waits for the double Homage where the jet mode Homages Animated Omega supreme and the train mode homages Energon Omega supreme and the headmaster can be Omega

actually... look at all the possible retoolings and redecos this guy can serve for the UT characters im going to be one happy camper with all the possible Energon retoons and redecos that this guy can serve

was thinking about placing a image from another fandom i'm in to represent what i think of all the possibilities

Would folks be satisfied with a mere Voyager class Omega Supreme?

I too could appreciate a Star Saber. Give us some different characters

Wow I didn't even think about the potential of Star Saber and the Road Caesar Brainmasters in the Titan Masters line. If we get a proper Star Saber out of this, I'd be a really happy camper.

Hopefully they'll do Godmasters and targetmasters properly as well as engines and guns.

its almost like the feet should be flipped 180 degress so the rounded part would be the toes
i guess we cant be perfect

Yeah, I got him just to do the repaint but I'd like an official release that doesn't require me to buy a pinch of third party add ons.

The front of the legs flips up to allow for (I assume) 360 degree rotation, so it might yet be possible

Same reason we are getting Blaster before Soundwave. It seems Hasbro wisened up by giving the less popular characters a release first, encouraging kids to know new or lesser known characters first. I am sure there are other examples but I cant think of them at the moment.

Later waves are notoriously harder to find in stores too, so later, more popular characters whom adults really care for will be found easier since so many preorder or order online. Those lesser characters are thus more available in stores for the audience that only buys brick and mortar style.

That's just an idea of mine

Correct me if I'm wrong, but we've never, in any toy line, had a Leader Class Rodimus figure. Ever. (The MP doesn't count. It's MP.) I think this would be the perfect time.

Seibertron wrote:Hopefully they'll do Godmasters and targetmasters properly as well as engines and guns.

Supposedly there's a Powermaster Prime coming down the line, out of the Leader Ultra Magnus mold. If that's the case, we'll find out soon enough. They'd have to do a LOT of retooling to Magnus to get a proper Powermaster Prime, though.

I wish we would get a voyager Rodimus. it would match his size nicely and if they did it in MTMTE style I would buy without hesitation. The combiner wars guy just doesn't work in robot mode and he's tiny compared to the others, so he is in need of a good updated figure

You could always go with Cloud Hot Rodimus.

Yeah, but that to me does not scream Rodimus. While the size works, the body type doesn't fully fit Rodimus for me. He looks good don't get me wrong, but he's just too much for me to justify and he just doesn't look enough the part

Plus, there's the whole $200 thing.

Optimizzy wrote:Plus, there's the whole $200 thing.

Also true. I try to be realistic in costs. That cloud Rodimus is more than combiners is anther reason I won't go for him

I dont see why, its not like Rodimus is a helicopter and plus I dont find it super fair to just say "no need to complain, just pay 150$ and you'll get what you want". At that price, there is very little reason not to start looking at third party instead. I dont encourage it, but just the same that I dont encourage people to pay so much for a novelty figure that might end up being redundant in the long term. Unless they are passionate about said figure (but then, they dont need any advising)

I would have gotten him this last Christmas if I had been able to. Even at $90 it is quite an awesome look for Rodimus. But I'm not paying over $200 for him. Not while I think other versions could still be a possibility.

My Classics Rodimus with the fansproject protector armor still occupies shelf space as my classics/generations Rodimus. I'd selfishly hate to have to replace him.. Luckily that combiner wars legends guy was not a worthy replacement.

As soon as a 3rd party company gets to putting a voyager sized Rodimus... We'll get one fr Hasbro... If we don't get it in Titans return or the next Prime Wars installment.

Well I'm going to use the new MP Hot Rod as my Rodimus. It won't be perfect but it will do for me.

Call me picky, but I also am not a fan of a Rodimus that does not have a spoiler on his back and lacks exhaust pipes on his arms. Those 2 features make Rodimus stand out to me.

Heh, I've been using the Energon ROdimus. He's been palling around in a tub full of Wreckers.

I really wanted the fans project armor. I tried finding a KO but it didn't work out. And I'm not spending these crazy after market prices for armor.
