    Crashbash is not compatible with Brainstorm. It says he is too loose, but goes on to say, by the next picture, that you can still adjust it to look cool.

    From this, we can guess that Brainstorm's Arcana will be too big to fit the bodies from this line.

    I worry that if I get these, later they'll be re-released, either with bodies, or as a multi-pack of just heads, or something. I don't like buying and then a new reveal of the same figure comes out, with slightly different deco or in a pack or something, and then wish I hadn't bought the one I have already.

    Sweet! he's got a "gun" mode that almost does not need the quotation marks.

    I think its clever how the titan masters feet become the dino lower jaw and the arms become the dino arms. very neat idea. but like prime roller said, I don't want duplicates so I'm out unless the body comes with it.

    The Titanmaster class is less for collectors like us and more for kids that have grown out of NuRiD, but still what to have Transformers. They might lose a head and this is a way to get a replacement for Autobot Apex with out having to spend $50. They use names of other characters to get the stores to stock "new" product, and to have something different than what comes with the bigger toys.

    These are beyond neat. It's been years since I've been excited about a retail tf line, and can't wait to pick these guys up. The interactivity between the HMs and the 'vehicle/animal' is fantastic.
    Awesome.

    I have a headless g1 Squeezeplay. I hope this guy can be used as a head for the g1 toy.

    No, they're not. These have a completely different connection system and are a lot smaller than old Headmasters.

    Yep, I think it's definitely the most gun-like out of the ones we've seen so far, but if Brawn's vehicle's peg is in the right place, that one will really look like an actual weapon.

    The peg on Brawn can be seen in the first picture sticking up in front of the rear track section.

    If the peg is in a fixed position then it's between the two treads in the lower picture.

    If the peg folds out, and judging by how much it's protruding I think it might, then the gun mode is upside down here (wouldn't be a first for a Hasbro publicity pic) and it folds out under where we can see it sticking up in the first picture.

    Either way it's situated in a decent position.

    I like this scale a lot more than I thought I would. Something about the robot (sans "titan") not being able to do much having a buddy unit that they can combine together into a something stronger. It gives me a very "evolution of transformation" vibe. Same vibe with the big integrated weapons we've been seeing.

    Well, everything in this line has at least 3-4 modes and in the Titanmasters case can be fitted into weapons, be heads, pilots. It's ridiculous.
