Is that the Legends characters coming with Titanmaster figures also? Looks like Rewind/Rumble and Shockwave do. Interesting.

I've updated the above post with translation of the names, dates and prices.
September will not be a good month
The Legends appear to come with the Titanmaters separated from the weapons. The only one that looks like it might be interesting is Wheelie who comes with GoShooter who's probably a different colour to Siren.

Love the head sculpt on Deadlock but not a big fan of much else. The car mode is surprisingly minimal given the bot mode is so busy it looks almost Gundam-like.

Here's a thing: No Titanmaster weapons pictured for Blurr & Scourge Have they just been left out of those pictures? I thought you were just about to wonder whether they were getting their Targetmaster guns!  |

How much of an improved paint job are these toys going to get compared to the poor Hasbro ones?

I'll let you know when we see it.
I'm not sure the paint for the other two is better though!

Oh lord. So now we have to start comparing all the TR paint jobs? I was just going to go Hasbro for simplicity, but that's just so much better. Same head? different head? accessories? arg! no I do not want to do this!

Er. Yeah. That is a far superior paint job. Usually things like that don't matter so much to me. But that is so much nicer...
However, what I will say is that I had the same thoughts with Generations Brainstorm, and was tempted to go the Takara route because it had the better paint job. But then I saw the Reprolabels for the Hasbro version, and ultimately went for that mixture instead. Which wasn't cheaper (well - it was, but only because I got Brainstorm in B&M), but it did look better. So maybe I'll wait and see what they do for TR Blurr...

Very tempted to chuck in an HLJ preorder for Blurr because he's clearly got the better paint job. Have we seen clear enough pictures yet to know the head is the same figure on both versions?
This different Takara head business is going to do my, er, head in.
Like the Cancer with Shockwave. What? who is that?
I think I'll go Hasbro for the most part because I prefer the toy style heads to the anime ones.

I seem to be alone in preferring Hasbro Blurr to Takaras. I really don't like the Sunbow darker blue on the Takara version, much refer the toy colours on Hasbros.

But in case it is, Cancer is the name of the japanese release of Squeezeplay. Cancer, astrological name represented by a crab. And being a headmaster jr, Cancer was fundamentally just the head. So, basically Shockwave comes with Squeezeplay's head. |
