Titans Return Leader-class Overlord in-hand images

Saw on tfw idk the source

Courtesy of fellow Seibertron staff Scottyp, we've got some strange and for the moment ambiguous Titans Return reveals for you! After their clone-mates Fastlane and Pounce were released exclusively as parts of a couple boxsets, the upcoming SDCC seems to show that Cloudraker and Wingspan are in fact being released together as a 2-pack by Hasbro rather than in boxsets as earlier speculated! This news comes from Snakas' blog, though the meaning still isn't quite clear. Will Cloudraker and Wingspan still be released in boxsets? Will Fastlane and Pounce be re-released in a similar way? Either way, all we know right now is that they're being shown in Titans Return packaging at SDCC and that we get a very nice look at Wingspan's bird mode from the packaging. Check out the image below and give us your theories in the forums!

Hopefully this is a bellwether for Eject and blue Frumble to be in a similar two pack.

I now want a mix and match version of Frenzy/Rumble called Frumble. He'll hang out with Bumblejumper.

ScottyP wrote:Hopefully this is a bellwether for Eject and blue Frumble to be in a similar two pack.

Yes to this! But I also hope this doesn't mean they are ditching the last 2 boxed sets.

So Fastclash (Fastlane) was released in a TRU exclusive set, Pounce will be released in a BBTS exclusive set, but I am not sure how these will be released, but I am sure they will be another exclusive in keeping with the pattern.

Now I'm dying to see the Takara version. As that head roughly looks like Giga, will there be a Mega to go with it? And maybe with an alternate expression? I'd prefer if one of them were able to snap into the chest, powermaster style, but whatever.

Hopeful speculation here, but could the fact that the Clones are on display with a regular retail release point to the same for the two-pack?
Although the whole situation reeks of exclusivity.

Overlord has 2 spaces in his chest for titan masters to slot into, Powermaster style. One under each white pec.


Hhmmm. If those two clones are in a twin pack, I might be able to pick those up someday for a reasonable price.

In all honesty I truly believe the release of Ramhorn as a titan is a clear indication Hasbro deemed the data pads a failure and moved on. Partially because Blaster/Soundwave were the wrong scale and got a lot of hate. Partially because the laserbeak and Ravage molds really sucked. I would also like to see the repaints, but I really yearn for a voyager G1 soundwave with smaller cassettes that scale better and look good. The rumble version of the rewind mold also lacks the signature dual guns mounted on his back which for me makes the character.

YESSS THEY ARE IN LEADER CLASS BOXSET
WHY THEY TOOK MONTHS TO BE RELEASED?
And why Fastlane and Pounce are in different boxsets?

Overlord's a cheater lol

On Hasbro's side, they've already covered both between Overlord and Sky Shadow. Ominus's design is based on Mega while Dreadnaught's design is based on Giga. So Hasbro wants us to buy both figures to get both of the Titan Masters based on Overlord's original Godmasters.

I know the original layout of the g1 fig as I have one, I was wondering how they were going to stay somewhat true to that while updating the fig to titans return/ tt legends specs

Hold on, is the Boxset of the two clones (Wingspan and Cloudraker) is exclusive? or just part of the wave itself?

Hm yeah. Overlord was never a particularly interesting or stylish looking robot...

They're talking about the TR toy there, not the G1 toy.

Not bad, Hasbro -- I'm also eager to see what Takara does with Overlord....or if Imma still need to go with Carnifex.

I like that we're getting the other clones! I also want more info on upcoming Legend class figs -- still enjoying Wheelie!

I disagree with that, as Ramhorn's G1-styling is a mere add-on for something bigger: the Titan Master itself is modeled after an unused G1 Headmaster Warrior design, the rhino was a perfect candidate for the Shuffler mold to be retooled into. Look it up! Also keep in mind that all toys in the line are designed in roughly the same time period (1-2 years), so once they first hit stores everything is off the table.

And say what?!



Hey Hasbro, curve balls are a TakaraTomy thing, not yours!

Shame Fastlane's set was never even available in the TRU's around here. Probably left clogging shelves in the Philippines or wherever actually got them. I totally would get this if I had that set, as I dug the original Autobot clones.

Courtesy of Planet Iacon's Facebook page and thanks to fellow user Albatross250, we've got some new images of Titans Return products! In addition to the already-released Voyagers, the Deluxe wave - including Wave 2's Wolfwire as a re-release - and the Leader-Class Overlord from Wave 5, there's also quite a few new images of the newly-revealed 2-pack of Wingspan and Cloudraker. Check 'em out below and tell us what you think in the forums!

Oh, good; an actual chance to get Weirdwolf in a store.

Glarryg

The Autobot and Decepticon twins look great and I can not wait pick them up unfortunately while I managed to get Siege of Cybertron I missed Chaos on Velocitron, but beside that Cloudraker and Wingspan look great

They look fantastic. Just wish they had new guns!

So while it's been well-known for a while that Wolfwire's the one getting re-issued, does anyone know why he is? Obviously someone has to fill the fourth slot, but he seems to be a bit of a random choice.

Overlord,Windblade,Twin Twist,Misfire,Blitzwing, and Octane look great and it's nice to weridwolf get rereleased as he is an awesome figure.

I don't really care why, I'm just happy he's coming back because he's one of the two wave 2 deluxes I missed. They didn't stick around at all, they just came and went in a matter of days.

IIRC the original run of Wolfwire suffers from a back flap that WILL break regardless of how careful you are. Perhaps this revision fixes it?

Black Hat wrote:IIRC the original run of Wolfwire suffers from a back flap that WILL break regardless of how careful you are. Perhaps this revision fixes it?

Can testify. Took it off he shelf for the first time in months and it cracked the day after. Look at it wrong and expect breakage at the yellow hinges.

Okay... I was expecting to get Cloudraker from another box set and sell him with my Fastclash, but, now, I'll probably just put him up once the two-packs start to arrive. Should work just fine.

Still got my fingers crossed for the Horrorcons.

Aside from the hopeful (if unlikely) possibility that he's a fixed revision of the mold to combat the cockpit-breakage, I seem to remember something about that he was the only one of the original Headmasters who hadn't seen a second release yet (whether packed in with another wave, or just through a revision wave). Can anyone confirm that off the top of their head? I don't really want to go archive trawling a few months back to make sure.

Is false. Mindwipe never got a second release in a revision case. Everyone else through wave 2 has though as of wave 5.

Actually, it is true. Mindwipe did get a really weird revision case of all Mindwipes right around Christmas when the distribution everywhere for TR was all messed up (somewhere between waves 2 and 3). It wasn't very widespread, but there were a number of photos of stores with 8+ Mindwipes and nothing else.

Post of the week! They need their weapons, those were some of the best G1 blasters.

Absolutely, Hasbro always jumps to attention to correct any errors they have in a figure design... BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! Only on pain of DEATH has Hasbro ever fixed a design flaw in a figure. Just ask 25th anniversary Duke!

So, how foolish is it to hope for a Fastlane and Pounce set for those of us who didn't get the big boxes, to go with Cloudraker and Wingspan?

Smaller that a Titan master foot peg.
Actually, expect the next boxes to have regular legends or lazy redecos of the clones with new heads.

At this point, can we even be sure there will be more boxed sets? I mean I know Hasbro said there would be 4. But they also said:
The clones were their own class. (They are not, they are Legends)
The clones are not TM compatible. (Fastlane is, not sure on Pounce yet)
One of the clones would be in each boxed set and not for individual release. (This one is still up for debate and could still possibly be both right and sort of wrong)

Some of these are making me rethink my masterpiece only policy. Good work hasbro.

The proper statement is that the Clones are still their own class, officially. Even though they are Legends Class-sized, they have slightly more plastic than would normally be allowed for main retail Legends Class, hence them being bundled. I don't recall Hasbro stating that the Clones aren't TM compatible, but I do recall them not mentioning how the Clones would be released. Just one of the fans' educated guesses gone viral and taken for fact.

Does Anyone see Fastclash's pegs on the legs? can he combine with Cloudraker or not?

I found this Disturbing....
And the Helmet is way too large for overlord, i can see Takara can Retool the Helmet for the perfect Shape for it

Albatross250 wrote:Does Anyone see Fastclash's pegs on the legs? can he combine with Cloudraker or not?

I'm assuming you're talking about the ones on the inside of the legs? Those are for the alt mode.

And the Clones don't combine, at least not officially. The Clones' gimmick is that they have (roughly) the same robot form, but different alt modes, nothing more.

Overlord is very boring to me. Sky Shadow owns him in every regard.

And while Wingspan looks so much than Pounce, Cloudraker looks kinda shite

Nice Godmaster Engines, Overlord.

Not to burst your bubble, but sixshot came out a wave before him..........

First off, none of these are my designs. I got them from thingverse and used those designs to 3D print these.

Now to some fun Titans Return stuff. Definitely check these out.

first up, the Titan Hammer. It is a hammer that allows for titan master integration in head mode. Sticks out both ends, and holds well. You can use the different titan master powers to give the hammer unique abilities, like freezing an impact zone (Topspin/Freezeout) or shutting down the body part you hit (Sky shadow/Ominus)




Up next, the Titan Saber. Basic principles still apply, but now it is a sword, not a hammer




And finally, we have a blaster (one of 2 I printed) for Brawn and Roadburn, a slingshot for Wheelie, and a printed Mastersword for Fort Max! The Fort Max even includes an accidentally printed 2nd hilt for anything else I can come up with!




If you can get your hands on a 3D printer, there are lots of cool things in thingverse you can play with!

O, I could see TakaraTomy doing this:

- make Overlord a "Getmaster" like Ginrai, using the Headmasters in his pectorals
- include Sky Shadow's Onimus as Mega, with a retooled face plate to evoke IDW Overlord's kissable lips.

I did spot Sky Shadow at a Target today, looks good. I passed on him.

Heartless monster! One of the best TR figures solely due to the variety!
