    That's fair. I'm looking forward to the POTP Metalhawk, and all the other Masterforce Pretenders. Want to see Takara's versions too, of course!

    I wonder is Takara is going to use the PotP pretenders as add ins for larger toys. It would be cool if the sold TR Metalhawk with is shell. Skullgrin could be a retool of someone I can't make hears or tails of what his alt mode is... But yeah a TR toy with a new Headmaster and pretender shell painteded up to be one of the G1 Pretenders seems like it could work.

    It'll be interesting to see what they do with them: the Titans Masters and their accessories ended up being split by Takara and I can't honestly see Takara doing the robots with the Prime symbols on their backs.

    Legends (size) and Leaders I expect to stay in Legends (Japanese toyline) but I expect Unite Warriors to return for the Deluxe and Voyagers

    Probably one last wave of Titans Return Legends first in March with Seaspray, Topspin & Twin Twist (and the other two Autobot Targetmaster weapons?) and MAYBE G2 Optimus Prime?

    See above for what I think is happening with the deluxe & voyager, which probably rules out them being packed with Primemasters.

    But in with the Leader, where the Primemaster in robot forms the Matrix core? Yes I could see that maybe ....

    I'm not talking about Prime Masters. What I'm saying is you get a TR figure and the Prime Master's shell for the titan Master to use.

    I think I see what you mean, something like Brainstorm as Cloudburst, with the shell, and Hardhead as Skullgrin?

    Yup, got money for that

    I think he means something like releasing titans return metalhawk with the potp metalhawk without the vector prime primemaster (only the shell without the master)

    Hey, Takara mole who may be lurking in the forums to see what fans might want, take note of this idea:

    DO IT.

    Oh that would be lovely. It'd be even better if they actually used the prime master instead of Triggerhappy's TM. So far 2 for 2 for having the Prime Masters be pretty close to how their old pretender selves looked. Now if Hasbro would just friggin show off Metalhawk already.

    Skullgrin I've been kind of thinking maybe they could use Twintist and just do some remolding. Skullgrin just looks like some oddball cybertronian mobile artillery piece to me.

    Could always get the renderform one off bbts for like $7, it's actually a pretty good fit

    I hadn't thought of swapping the faceplate for the primemaster tile! That's brilliant!

    They don't drop until the end of the month. If you ordered from a domestic source add a week or so.

    Good call! For now I'll dig out my G1 Metalhawk and see if his saber works.

    Also, if you want a good modern representation of his wing guns gonto www.nonnef.com and order some brainstorm guns in grey, they work really well along with the renderform sword

    I'd expect expect Takara to release the Legends Pretender shells with the 'Prime Masters' redecoed/remolded to look like the Pretender original inner robot selves.

    They already look like the original inner robots.
