Has anyone said how the Onslaught alternate colors thing will be handled? I'm assuming one will come in this wave, and the recolor will be with Skylynx's wave, but it's only a hunch.

Ugh, I just found a really cool thing for cheap and am having a raging internal debate on if I should give it as an SS present or keep it. Why did they only have one. Why...

Today I saw a 4x4 the same metallic colour as Takara Generations Kup and the plate said G1 KUP.. Dunno if it was a thing or just coincidence.

Got a RiD Underbite for my daughter, now I kinda want to get one for myself. That is a real good tiny wolf/future car toy. Reminds me a lot of G1 mini vehicles which is something I've been missing. Makes up for the clearance chainsaw slash vehicon which I just had to get yesterday. That is a bad toy. e: and my Retrax came in. I had originally intended to replace his head, tail and body segments with lexan, rotate the robot parts 90 degrees, add in a second pair of legs and generally make a decent toy out of him. Now that he's in my hands though I really just want to replace the arms. Any good arm donor suggestions? Should be deluxe size, preferably with a solid upper arm (to accommodate drilling so it can go on the rod that's already there) ball joint elbow and wrist swivel. Ideally it should look cool and be cheap and easy to find. Sizone fucked around with this message at 12:04 on Nov 13, 2015 |

I really don't want a guy to loose his job because Hasbro found out he said too much on some obscure Internet forum. I like the inside info as much as the next guy, but I don't really like asking him questions much because I don't want to get him in trouble. Then again, I might just be paranoid and worrying over nothing.

Kinda weird how it claims it is the FIRST titan wars product, but tfw2005 seems somewhat more convinced. Not really sure I want that anyway.

BIG TIP OFF THAT IT'S FAKE: It's not "Titan Wars", it's "Titans Return". We KNOW this. That's an inept forgery. EDIT: I mean it might be old enough to predate the name change (because they said at NYCC that at one point it WAS gonna be "Titan Wars") but I'm gonna be skeptical.

TFW was pretty quick to debunk the abominus one, yet this was embraced almost immediately. I'm skeptical, but it does look nice. We'll find out soon enough anyway.

That's pretty clearly Generations Metroplex and G1 Fort Max photoshopped together.

He's trying to go into the legal department (so he has some kind of aptitude for liability spotting) and never directly tells us anything that hasn't already been made public. He's a big boy and can handle himself. Also, that thing looks like rear end and I hope it's not true.

SirToys has started getting his OS MP-10's. I was the third guy to Want List it so I have one dibbed for 24 hours buuuuut I bought one on Ebay earlier this week from the trusted seller. But now a few people are posting on TFW that that seller has canceled their orders because of lack of stock. God drat it, I think I'm going to double down on this guy just in case the Ebay seller oversold his stock on my order as well.

He's a big boy and can handle himself. Okay. Again, sorry, I'm probably worrying over nothing. That said, I figured if they ever chose to make a Fort Max, they'd reuse tooling from Metroplex to save costs.

^Even the illustration seen makes it pretty obvious it's a Generation Metroplex retool. The red shins make me think that slide may not be on the up-and-up. Or maybe the Hasbro one will have inexplicable red shins just so Takara has something to fix for their version.

It's not showing as available for me yet on Sirtoys but when it does I think I'll be doubling down on it... I think it's unlikely someone won't at least break even. They may start doing palette swaps after this run, if so the red version will be in demand

I'm gonna buy it but put the shipping on hold til next week so I can snag a bunch of other stuff I want.

Someone fixed the aspect ratio of the picture by aligning Fort Max with the blueprints that showed up (at botcon I think?) when they weren't supposed to unveil Titans yet, and it fits. I'll try to find the pic. e: here

It does not look dissimilar nor is a Fort Max a surprise whatsoever. We know one is coming. But it is kinda weird that it is missing the huge tank tracks on the back of the blueprints. Also someone wake up DT I want to know what XFL means on a slide
