The fold down over the door panels are the blocks covering the lower chest in dinosaur mode   |

I'm an idiot!  Purple panels fold up 180° exposing what's underneath .... which is a cavity. You can see that at the bottom left of the panel, just to the left of his elbow. The green panels the legs are attached to also fold up 180° with the legs folding down 180° mounting the legs in the shoulder position for base mode! |

Hmmm. More Devastator height than Metroplex. Shame they won't be like for like, but then Trypt's added bulk was always going to make that unlikely. By the time this comes out it's going to cost at least £150 even for the Hasbro one, isn't it. Don't think I'll go the Takara route this time. |

You continue to both amaze and terrify me, Phil... I thank you. Haven't done this to a toy for a while trying to work out how it ticks. |

If the Japanese one has Brunt and the US one doesn't for example.... www.tfu.info/1986/Decepticon/Trypticon/trypticon.htm |

Unlikely. Everyone bet on SDCC Metrotitan, G2 Devastator, and RiD or Grand Fort Max. But Hasbro chose slight variant each time. (Did they even use Max?) |

Yeah pretty much everyone in the UK owns the SDCC Max instead of the retail one, as the retail one barely hit shelves (up for a few days at tesco) whereas the SDCC one was pretty much the same price online due to basically some sort of apocalypse where UK online stores seemingly ordered a billionty of them!!! |

You know the orange type central bit on the legs hip area. We can see 3 parts on the hip going forwards & a shadow at the rear & it looks like the whole circle central may rise up. It is not connected to the 3 bits - unless the whole leg lifts out & the centre part stays put.
The chest looks like a CW redo - something like Dragstrip crossed with someone else

Here's the big question: Just what will his Titanmaster do?  ?? Will his dino head fly off and turn into a robot? Or will the TItanmaster just be for Full Tilt (if there is one!) |

My mind has just boggled at the mad idea that Full Tilt turns into a giant head for an unseen humanoid robot mode! I now want this to happen in reality.

Or will the TItanmaster just be for Full Tilt (if there is one!) You can see Full Til, or parts of him in car mode, in several pictures. The Titanmaster being Full Tilt's is favourite. But I too like e idea of Full Tilt becoming something like a replacement Fort Max head ala Megabolt Megatron. |

Well yeah I mean there's a car on his chest, but will it actually be a robot too, or just a weird car?

I'd expect a robot mode.

I am now also looking forward to being disappointed that it won't do what Ralph has dreamed up.
Dammit.

Well, his head doesn't transform, so trypticon isn't a headmaster. Meaning Full Tilt would be. However, looking closely at him, he doesn't have an obvious cockpit. So I wonder if he's not PotP over TR. |

On Fulltilt you can see on the car side a slit & also 2 pin holds, So expect this arms?

The Big T is looking utterly mind-blowingly amazeballs, to be sure. May have to get this. Lord help me, I may have to get this.

Looks like they turned that weird battlestation mode into something that passes as a starship/carrier, without really changing it much. I approve.
The oversculpting isn't as obnoxious on the actual toy, as it is in the renders.
