Either splurge on 'Plex or wait for Trypticon

You own Plex? It ain't worth it. Otherwise it's a question of how much you want a giant robot with no real alt mode

Do you have metroplex?

If no, then go for it if you have any desire.

If yes, consider, would you want a backwards facing metroplex that transformers less than his pre-tool that also cost significantly more who's only notable feature is being a double headmaster who doesn't have any intentional weapons (no gun no sword unless SDCC version/hk resident who got lucky) who doesn't have a proper city mode unless you consider fan mode options

>>5857592
If you can find him for 80-100, then yes, but he's not worth it since he's over all disappointing compared to Metro. The missing gun, and sword didn't help.

>>5857619
I own both and think Max is a better toy.
Paint apps are fine, apply the stickers to avoid the "blandness" people keep saying he has.

>>5857620

>>5857641
You could get Metro for 110, even less if you got him from Costco.

I don't understand the complaints about no gun no sword. There are third parties that have produced both for TR Fort Max you know...

>>5857642
And you can get max for the less if your willing to wait...

He has already been on sale for $130 and he has only just come out.

>>5857645
That's not really a sale, Amazon just has him for cheaper since one of their sellers has it lower than their price, so they change theirs to match.

You could probably find him cheap, but that depends if he's going to sell out as fast as Metroplex, or shelfwarm like Devastator.

Just people comparing it to his original toy and metroplex.

What they are not taking in to account is he is a bigger toy than metro was materials wise.

The upper chest alone is a solid mass of plastic baring the intentional holes and compartments.

Cerberos is not an lazy hollow figure either. He is a proper solid chunk of materials.

Plex was a hollow mess and just as big of a failure in city and alt modes....and if you want to talk about lack of paint and blandness merto was the epitome of that, they couldn't even be arsed to paint his face.

...don't even get started on the stocked sheet that contained stickers that where not even cut properly to fit the spaces they where meant to fill or the quailty of that paper stock they used to print them on.

Bang for buck max is a better value when all things are considered outside of personal preferences.

>>5857646
Ok, by that logic Costco was not a sale either.

Well I heard a rumor that apparently said shop chain had him for $200 at one point on clearance.

Thing is I checked several stores of said chain in my state (about 15, I had annual leave saved) and only one had him left, 3 of them, still showing at $250 as of now, this is big w for reference.

Somehow they've disappeared, meanwhile the other chain where he was originally spotted in the country (myers) still have him but only one per store (2 out of 5 stores checked, not many of them around) and still coming as full price, pic related.

To give you an idea of Myer's clearance model, one moment you got year of the goat soundwave for $150 sometime last year, the next...oh wait right now the website says $330.

They also still have the conehead platinum set for $150 and goat g2 laser optimus for $299 roughly from memory.

I don't even remember how much metroplex *might* of been because the first I ever heard about him was at $80 after that he was gone, it was a catalog sale much like fort max, but fort max was pushed at $250

Bit of a correction, I keep remembering I got him for $80 but according to this

I got him for $98, with the rival chain as mentioned (target) going for $120, I'm still trying to find the full rrp when he was in Australia, all I know is on ebay fellow Australians are fucking stupid

Getting sick of looking but from what I can tell, in Australia metroplex was $149 at highest retail price, perhaps around $179 at some point somewhere, like myers.

Which confirms my suspicions, regardless of sales fort max is way over priced than his pre-tool, we Australians got fucked over despite getting him before the rest of the world.

Oh well, I'm an even bigger idiot, going for the SDCC version and then finding out said store big W had an all toys 20% off the week he was paid for meant I payed $40 more for a plastic sword and a slight retool on cerebros, and even that sale didn't clear out the last 3 fort max at my nearest store before they mysteriously disappeared long after that sale.

Somebody is going to make a transformable Cab (with the proper engine block Ginrai) for the Takara Ginari Prime right?

We don't know, someone could make it, but since it's not out yet, and the cab attachment is different from PMOP.

For those saying FortMax ain't so great, and he's a reversed Metroplex, can you actually just transform him the same way you would Metro?

I don't own either, just curious.

>>5857760
BW Terrorsaur? That one triceratops Basic? Dinosaur Mini-Cons?

Otherwise you have the Animated Dinobots and the AoE Dinobots, which are both based off of the original team.

Don't have Fort but he has the same articulation joints, even the arm swing that is just usefull for Metro to deploy his helipad. Fort should've be able to follow the same transformation, well except for the upper chest.

That makes perfect sense.

Or does it combine with Powermaster Optimus?

>>5857891
Nah, His legs just look shorter because of the long arms which look long because of the wrist extention to give him wrist swivels, he looks better if you move the shoulders up.

Skullcruncher's legs are actually okay on mine.
They're loose but not to the point where floor polish is needed to be even pose-able.
I don't like the rubber plastic on him, though, especially the hatch in beast mode.

He wasn't. The Voy are all distinctively triple changers for TR.

I really liked this set, but could never quite justify paying to much for AoE molds. Just didn't sit right with me.

>>5857934
I buy the Titan master for the weapon mode, not the headsculpt.
They're targetmasters first, headmasters second, for me at least.
Which is why I won't be getting Loudmouth.

>>5857891
I want to know something about Blurr; does the antenna thing on his head extend? I've seen pictures of it very low like on yours, but also higher up.

Hardhead has no hint of a third mode and was the front runner of the Titans return announcement bring more doubt he was ever planned as something bigger. He has short legs because that's what a lot of TF tanks suffer: disproportionate bodies

It's a cute little boat.

Anyway, it has a QC issue where the 5mm peg is oversized. You need to sand it down for it to fit so that's another reason why you shouldn't get loudmouth.

>>5857940
But that's wrong you fucking retard

The whole point of them is the head, the targetmaster weapon is secondary. And Loudmouth's headsculpt is fantastic. And his weapon is cool, although the car mode is much nicer looking

It really boils down if you think the paint apps are worth the extra 15ish

>>5857965
If you bought them online, they'd cost around 58-62 (including shipping) with the current exchange rate

>>5857953
The vehicle is an extra. The titan master heads were an attempt to address numerous complaints over the years about people losing the heads.

And no, they're 100% headmaster. Those aren't transtectors, the fuck you on about? These are straight up headmasters and nothing else

Jesus, educate yourself you special retard

If these Titanmasters are headmasters then their head should fit into the vehicles they come with.
Those vehicles are NOT extra.
They're part of what make them a titanmaster, you retard.
They make a good emergency, on-the-fly adhoc replacement headmaster, but their main purpose in combat is to be a fucking targetmaster, and a brainmaster-sized pretender.

That's just your interperatation, and it's terrible.

>>5857984
Not even fucking close. Transtectors only appeared in Japanese G1.

But they do...? Have you seen Nightbeat's and Loudmouth's? The weapon modes for those require you to fold the into heads.

The vehicles are extra. They're like the targetmaster triplechangers from the T30 legends. Inconsequential and really a bonus if you think about it. That's why the figure is called Titanmaster Loudmouth, not Grey and Red Air Car.

So therefore Furos isn't a titanmaster because he doesn't come with a vehicle, only Hardhead. But yet he's called a titanmaster on the box....

Really makes you think huh?

And yes, they're supposed to be replacement headmasters. No, they're not supposed to be targetmasters, they're supposed to be TITANMASTERS. That's why they're marketed and billed AS TITANMASTERS. Not pretenders, not brainmasters, not targetmasters. TITANMASTERS.

Furos IS a Titanmaster because he DOES come with a vehicle.
The vehicle is called Hardhead.

that's ONE of their purpose.

>No, they're not supposed to be targetmasters
that's part of what makes them Titanmasters to begin with.
along with the head form they also have kibbles to fuck around with as weapons/indepedent vehicles.

>muh TITANMASTERS
did I say anywhere in my posts that they're NOT Titanmasters?
they have characteristics of headmasters (head form), pretenders (robot riding on vehicle), targetmaster (vehicle+robot turns into a gun) and brainmaster (robot is in similar size to brainmasters)

But they're still heads, yes? And this has nothing to do with godmasters, stop trying to namedrop Jap G1 to earn extra cred.

But Hardhead is a separate entity. It says so in the bio, and in the Titans Return storybook. The promo material surrounding all this has made it very clear that the heads and the bodies are separate conscious entities.

What's their other purpose? Other than piloting the cannons like with Hardhead of course.

They fuck around with weapons and independent vehicles, and? They don't actually convert into the weapons. They're not targetmasters.

And they sure as fucking hell aren't Pretenders. Do you even know what a pretender is? It's a cybertronian hiding inside a flesh body. Titanmasters have buttfuck nothing to do with that. And they don't turn into the weapons, they aren't targetmasters.

So you compared two different toys from two completely different lines and they're the same size. So they're the exact same thing now?

I give up. You're too dense to be reasoned with

>>5858048
>But they're still heads, yes?
heads that works with every other large transtector other than their own.
that ain't headmaster.

Wow, people are actually using this thread I made as a joke?

>>5858058
TRANSTECTORS ARE NOT HEADMASTERS.

GOD DAMNIT.

So Headmasters cannot be interchangeable? Omatedou, these are titanmasters. They're interchangeable, unlike headmasters. Happy? And they aren't transtectors either. Because transtectors involve a live being and a drone host. Titanmasters involve a live being and a live host.

Yes it did. It had to be a flesh body. That's the whole gimmick of pretenders.

So something as basic as pointing out painfully flawed logic is now playing semantics?

They have the live being and they connect to a live host. Done.

Give up.

>>5858075

Also, technically, titan masters are just the heads. They are interchangeable, alive, and connect to living hosts. So the titanmaster packs are still titanmasters, just that they don't come packaged with hosts.

Wew.

>>5858345
I don't like when characters are forced into size classes too small for them. The Insecticons should have been the same small Deluxe size as Classics Bumblebee. Instead, now they're the size of Cassette bots.

Stupid obsession with keeping formerly tiny characters stuck in a relative tiny toy instead of getting a size boost like all the other modern toys have gotten.

Who is the best titan master and why is it crashbash?

I just got wave 1 of the heads and I wish the vehicles they came with were a little more imaginitive, instead of just hallowed out boats that when you turn them over they are now planes. Crashbash's dinosaur thing is pretty dope though.

>>5858328
Because to do otherwise is either lazyness, or because of budget constraints. It's how he was originally and how he should be now, same with ultra magnus.

>>5858343
Nice fake knees.

>>5858343
Needs a more accurate face sculpt.

>>5858369
Ultra Magnus isn't fictionally a Prime robot underneath and that wasn't even part of his character until Dreamwave did it in the comics. And we don't need a Legends size Prime/Ginrai just to make the regular size robot to go into the trailer for the super robot. That would be retarded. It makes this version unique by eliminating the car robot that would look exactly like Optimus Prime anyway and going straight into the super mode.

Looking over info on the various releases of FM made me realize how weird it is that Hasbro didn't try doing what they did in Hong Kong with other TRU's (or stores) around the world.

It definitely would have given people a reason to pre-order FM, since the first release would include a sword (in fact, isn't Premiumcollectibles doing this somehow?)

Name*

>>5858024


I prefer to think that Headmasters, Targetmasters, Brainmasters and Powermasters came about on the planet Nebulos several centuries ago, and was used by Cybertronians since the mid 80s.

Research since then has allowed for Nebulans to upgrades all the aforementioned previous Master formats into one cohesive format called Titanmasters.

Which is why some like Getaway can now form the head of his mechsuit while still powering it like before.

The process can even convert any Transformer that was never a Titanmaster before into one, and his former body into a mechsuit for him.

Another function is it allows Titanmasters to disguise themselves as humans ala Alice in RotF to mingle with human society

>>5858741

>Deluxe Airrazor and Deluxe Tigatron become Voyager-sized Tigerhawk
>Airrazor + Silverbot wolf mode becomes Fuzor-style Silverbolt
>Deluxe Starscream and Deluxe Waspinator become jet with waspy parts that looks like Transmetal Waspinator
>Leader Optimus Primal and Leader Optimus Prime become fuckhuge trukkmunky like Optimal Optimus
>Ultra Magnus combines with elephant Ironhide to become Ultra Mammoth
>Prowl (lion) combines with Optimus Prime to become Lio Convoy/Leo Prime

Beast Wars gets something for the anniversary (even if it's a little late) and Gen 1 gets more combiners because then Hasbro makes money by making people buy 2 toys. Throw in some kind of "any bot can combine with any other bot" gimmick like the other 2 lines, and I think it could work.

>>5858191

The name is fine. It's a lot better than the majority of names given to characters that Hasbro doesn't have the rights to anymore.

Hasbro really needs give us cross compatibility between lines, fucking make the new pretender shells use Hero Masher limbs or something, or make the inner robot a micromaster/titanmaster size and have the shell be something a little larger than, say, Titanmaster Apeface or Fangry, the shells could make armor and weapons for the bigger figures, Monstructor would combine to the size of a voyager and wear his pretender shells as armor? Would be fucking awesome.

Have you been supporting the current Pretender shells on the shelves?

>wouldn't it be awesome to put our toys into cheap plastic bricks and sell that as the gimmick?
No

That counts as a cheap plastic brick anon

The Shell gimmick

>>5859261

Those are more Robots with passenger compartments

>>5859265

So does your head, apparently

They're either going to do a Pretender line or Beast line. My bet is on the former since Warden hates BW.

God help us if they decide to revisit Action Masters though.

Yes but if you want modern pretender shells from hasbro, these will be it. Don't kid yourself. What are you expecting from hasbro? effort...?

>>5859283

Bravo, Hasbro.

>(in fact, isn't Premiumcollectibles doing this somehow?)
Yep, but only on regular fort max, at the time and even now the cheapest way to get him in Australia.

No one now would be able to get him, the early adopters didn't know about the sword and now they're being rewarded for it

>>5859286
did you miss that hasbro and takara use the same designers and factories???

Isn't the sword just a lucky-draw item? Pic-related from Singapore.

>We heard, we listened, HERE'S COMPUTRON

He spends more time talking on the "new" legends scrounge than what they actually did for computron, oh and the new hands and feet get a good decent shove in his speech.

Honestly, I would of bought it, would of helped if he had a new chest (even the CW show on machinma done it better) and the throw ins of not brawl and not streetwise don't help, minimum new heads at the very least.

>>5859303
PC got their stock from hasbro asia, sometimes they throw in some freebies depending on what's going in at the time.

I actually got a CW sticker sheet for my optimus maximus...even though the order at the time was for a mp ramjet, UW grand galvatron and platinum junkion set (and yes got the coin for grand galvatron too), pure luck of the draw and pc announcing it once the stock came in was just the icing on the cake

>>5859306
>Hasbro Computron has the best car mold limb-bot, and good enough hands/feets, but shit nosecone. Also Scrounge
>Takara Computron has the better Strafe an Nosecone, but a not as good Lightspeed; it will also require third party hands/feet. No Scrounge

I really can't choose

>>5859313
The Computron hands and feet have basically no articulation and the feet are hollow with borderline no friction. I'd say you need the third party hands and feet either way

>>5859313
>Hasbro has the better Lightspeed
I dunno man, maybe in vehicle mode, at a push. The dead end mold is generally better received than breakdown, but the takara one just looks a hell of a lot more like lightspeed.

If you're still looking to get the SDCC Brainstorm, I could get rid of the Windblade for you, since it's the one I'm looking for, as long as the shipping isn't ridiculously high..
