Yes, pointless to argue over something that never had reality.

The cross sell, with the relevant tech spec power highlighted, clearly implies another two. Two clones were left unproduced, and had to be done elsewhere, 2 more die cast heads turn up as pack ins. The evidence overwhelmingly suggests four was the plan and that Hasbro went off boxsets when they saw how the CW ones were selling.

As Ralph said.
There may have been an inkling to do four but nothing firm to suggest it was ever acted on.
The TR boxsets have always struck me as an afterthought of 'collections of random toys' to sell rather than 'boxsets with toys designed for them' therefore no surprise other toys have appeared in other ways than speculative boxsets.

finally got round to opening some old titans return while waiting for the football;
Triggerhappy - decent fun toy, transforms well, not amazing but better than some of the tosh this line has Kup - terrible so flimsy and floppy just feels really really cheap SlugSlinger - I really liked this toy, could be the desperation after the cost but he just feels really nice in hand, transforms well and is fun Topspin - again I really liked him, nice fun toy transforms well and looks good in both modes Twinferno- dinosaur hands, he has dinosaur heads for hands and little T-rex flaps, need I say more

There was no bad deluxe sized Titans Return.
Some of the repaints were a bit lazy (Hi, Breakaway!) but for my money it was far better than either Combiner Wars or POTP.

Some of the build quality was poor but the figures themselves were all great. I really enjoyed the entire line.

Oh yeah, I had to take a knife to my Skullcruncher to even make him transform, the pegs were so misshapen!

I bought a 2nd Skullcruncher for me and Mini B to play with when Tesco had them at £5 and the thing fell to pieces straight out the packaging. Claws fell off, tail wouldn't stay on, head wouldn't stay on, legs popped off when you looked at them, if you got the legs transformed they wouldn't peg together.

I like the Overflow suggestion on the thread. If you squint you could even believe its Overflow (and presumably Fullbarrel) in Micromaster HQ (ish) colours.
Otherwise its colours kinda politely saying Alpha Trion to me. But the closest robot mode would be Pipes or huffer. Or virtually any micromaster.

I suspect Tote or a repaint of him into Alpha Trion etc.

I don't think that's Siege? Optimus Prime doesn't match the Siege design (I know, like that's never happened before), and this doesn't have the god awful ugly Livio Ramondelli type finish that every piece of Siege art has had, so far.

Missed opportunity:
Quintesson Judge- deluxe sized Quint Judge body, comes with five titanmasters, and the slots can fit any titanmaster or primemaster.

Who am I missing? I must have the set!

Toph: I was unclear in my initial post. I was meaning the single packed Titanmasters.
Of course *all* Titanmasters are good.
