I thought it was from one of the more legit sources. Or at least not Planet of Giants 4 territory.

Is this the usual internet 'rumour' as in 'someone makes something up and everyone else repeats it instead of checking for a source'? -Ralph this was rumored by the transmissions podcast, whose source was on the nail about the titans reveals so far. The new headmasters are deluxe size, which is apparently a new deluxe size slightly larger than the current ones. They said there will be a new brainstorm along with the other three eventually, but so far we've only seen hardhead. It's got more credence than a random internet claim. |

This week's Transmissions podcast rumours (well, last week's, I'm always a week behind with this one):
The silhouettes on the NYCC Titans Return promo presentation are the other wave one Deluxes, which are new moulds for Scourge and Blurr - both Titan Master figures (personally it would make more sense to me if they were target masters, but hey ho). The Leader is Powermaster Prime, which we already knew.
Platinum boxset - Rodimus Prime vs Galvatron. Not clear which figures are in it.

Blurr we knew about: And two more deluxe, one of which looks like Blurr  Not sure the other dlx Silhouette looks like Scourge looking at it. Hasbro CW Computron will have new moulds for the combiner mode hands and feet. The only other combiner with new hands and feet is Victorion which suggests they may be going the boxset route with Computron. |

A little surgery has steered the relevant points concerning Legends and CW Computron into The Legends Thread and The Combiner Wars threadPlatinum boxset - Rodimus Prime vs Galvatron. Not clear which figures are in it. There's a Voyager TW Galvatron. VS a Western Cloud Rodimus? On the other hand Rodimus is a frequently rumoured toy so I'd not be surprised to see a TW version coming. |

I dunno, but there's a rumour that there's going to be a new Brainstorm as part of Titan Wars (which sounds odd to me, but eh) Well FOC gave us a combiner Bruticus which could be seen as testing the water. A few years later w get CW with another Bruticus. They tested teh headmaster water last year with Brainstorm and next year a full headmaster line with, probably somewhere near the end of the line, a new headmaster brainstorm. It would fit a pattern, well create a pattern. |

Blurr we knew about too: And two more deluxe, one of which looks like Blurr Not sure the other dlx Silhouette looks like Scourge looking at it. I've been reminded of another objection to Scourge being the other deluxe Silhouette: Sentinel Prime looks like he'd retool into a decent Scourge! |

I'm still not seeing the Scourge in that figure! But then I also have trouble believing Hasbro would make a Cyclonus and Galvatron that are roughly in scale and a Scourge that towers over them both (unless that mold is actually quite short and defends its price point by being dense and complex)

Post by Philip Ayres on Nov 19, 2015 12:58:36 GMT
It's a Voyager so should be the same size as CW Cyclonus and TR Galvatron

Sentinel Prime is a Leader class, I thought!

Huh. For some reason I had it in my head he was leader class. Maybe it is because they were talking of him as a 'leader'. That does make more sense then! I was baffled at the existence of a giant figure!!

I'd forgotten how much Sentinel Prime looks like he's dancing like MC Hammer.

The last Scourge rumour said he was a new Deluxe mould. We're also being told these deluxes are bigger than the current ones, so a Scourge somewhere between current deluxe and voyager size with CW Cyclonus and the forthcoming Galvatron might work well as trio.

Larger deluxe could also just mean a return to the pre-dotm sizes.

Definately. I'm predicting a full class bump, honestly. Deluxes rising to $20 usd (they're $15 presently), and with a bit more to them to help collectors justify that.
Makes me wish they'd either make the legends more worth their cost, or bring back scouts

Brainstorm from Blurr I can see. Give Blurr wings and you're pretty much there. Bit of a random set though. Presumably tied to a comic again.

Thinking about it, Brainstorm/Blurr is a pretty obvious remould. Very similar shapes and TFs.
