I can't really think of anything off the top of my head, seems like things show up in places like things show up in Canada or Australia or even parts of Europe long before we start seeing them here. Not that there's anything really wrong with that, it's just funny how much things have changed in the past 10 years or so.

Didnt you get the first wave of combiner wars first? The first RID one steps for sure, along with thé most recent RID warriors. And you also got the wave 2 TR deluxes and titan masters first.

I've used the engine modes many times and have never had an issue, nor have I ever had a Titan Master lose its head. Just need to make sure you're putting the heads in the right way, they aren't all the same.

Anyway...I'm pretty sure I'm not the first person in the U.S. to purchase Titan Masters wave 3 from a Wal-Mart...anyone else have this issue? I know glitches sometimes happen, but this is a national chain and I would think UPC's are linked to all stores...?

The lady at customer service wanted to give me a hard time as well, but before I went there, I went all the way back to toys, got an older TM I knew would scan to show her as proof. She didn't believe me at first, but reluctantly made the transaction happen. I know my $20 isn't really going to matter to them, but its sad when one corporation is so large, they think they can get away with crappy customer service.

Clobber=Grimlock &
Autobot Ptero=Swoop
ToyFair 2017 happens in New York on Feb 18th-21st, that is likely where most of the remainder of Titans Return will be revealed. If there are any actual Dinobot toys is anybody's guess at this time. Personally I'd like to see if a proposed continuation of Combiner Wars happens in 2018, and would love to see an official, proper Dinobot combiner.

I don't think we need to fear that, only the Titan Masters themselves in that Class are retooled, not the vehicles. That said, their potential reuse will make them more likely to be made:
Snarl: Slugfest
Sludge/Slog: W Cassettebot Saur
Slag/Slug: uhm... I'll go hide now.

I bought mine at the self-checkout. They showed up as not in the system and locked me out of the transaction, but I had a previous wave TM with me at the time (buying gifts for friends) and when the employee overseeing the self-checkout area came over she told me to just scan that one two more times in place of the ones that didn't scan.

We are not going to see the entire 2017 toyline at an event in February. We'll probably see the remainder of wave 4 and some of wave 5.

Well that employee needs to be reported right away because now that stores inventory is going to be all messed up. j/k...at least you had someone who was helpful.

If Prime Wars 3.0 is supposed to debut either very late 2017 or 1st Quarter 2018 The why would they even be telling us now ?
Is "Power of the Primes" more akin to "Unicron battles" in that it's a 2nd year refresh descriptor added to an existing brand name. ?
I wasn't to sure so I thought I'd ask.
---
Also I just got Voyager Optimus and Megatron from TRU (UK) I've opened the former and was pleased to discover he's actually pretty decent overall.
He has a few minor design quirks and perhaps he needs a few more 5mm holes on his body for weapon storage.
It does have a annoyance I've not seen for a while - I think it has popped up before tough which is parts are cast in the wrong colour from what you might prefer - such as the jet nose would have been better blue as being red it exposes a large amount of red on his legs that I don't much like.
The stickers are not an issue on him so far they don't seem to want to peel or anything like that. and they are in fairly non-intrusive places.
I'll open megs later see what I think of him.

They probably didn't mean to let the name out as early as it was since it was informally announced in a press release for something else.RAR wrote:So is Prime Wars Part 3 actually "The Power of the Primes" or is that just some sort of campaign title that isn't actually part of the Prime Wars 3.0

Wave 1 7/1/16-9/14/16
Wave 2 9/15-11/30/16
Wave 3 12/1/16-2/15/17
Wave 4 2/16/17-5/2/17
Wave 5 5/3/17-7/17/16
Wave 6 7/18/17-10/1/17
Seeing how there is basically 2 months until Toy Fair, we *may* get one or two sneak peeks at something else before then (like Kup and Topspin), but its not likely.
For me personally. I have seen all the figures in Wave 2 in stores with the exception of Soundwave. For Wave 3, I have only seen the Titan Masters and Deluxes thus far (No Legends, Voyagers, or Leader Class(Sixshot) yet). It seems the Leader Class figures are lagging a bit behind their respective waves, at least in my area, cant speak for everyone else. But seeing as how Soundwave and Sixshot are the only two bots remaining on my personal want list for this line at this point, that's not too bad, and seeing them both in store prior to February 15th doesn't seem that unreasonable IMHO.
However, if according to my estimates, wave 4 is to start hitting after Mid-February, then I guess we would have to have some more reveals prior to Toyfare, unless wave 3 is just going to be dragged out a bit longer than I anticipated.

Yep very different outcomes hapoen

Also, of all Titan Masters so far, Sawback has the very best integration with the Titan Master vehicle by filling out the mane of the lion. Here is a comparison between the lion mode on the G1 figure and its homage:
More comparisons with g1 we have Sawback on Hardhead and Skullcruncher and the G1 counterparts of the same combinations.
And here is Sawback with the other new molds from his wave:
Notice how well that Titan Master works to make up the mane.
Since Lione never had a robot mode (he was just a head), Sawback's robot mode is completely new and actually refers to the alt mode of his G1 counterpart by having a beast face:
The lion turns into a single pilot aircraft of some sort. What I find great is how there is painted detailing in the wings to give this form detailing not found in the other modes, with silver painted guns on the wings. While the instructions say to keep the legs up, I prefer them down.
Here is an alternate transformation for each new mold from this wave:
And here is Sawback in his shield mode, along with the other new Titan Masters in their respective weapons modes.
Let us know what you think of Sawback and the others.

He has a lot of issues with poor fit like plugging the legs together makes one of the leg hatches open slightly. he was also very very loose all over the place.
Nice head - no idea who the Titanmaster is supposed to resemble though.
he is quite a bit bigger than Optimus too.
I discovered earlier that the nub on the turret is actually removable and you can pull it straight forwards and plug it on his grey gun to make it longer or simply so he has no sticky up bit behind his head.
You can also use it as a shoulder cannon adaptor too. or to provide a 2nd handle for holding his combined guns as a rifle.
Once I spend 2 or 3 days worth or repeated floor polish dripping in his joints I expect i'll like him a lot more.
Oh and yes the stickers are pretty poor - don't do that again Hasbro.
