    Nice. Bring it on! Victorion, Skullcruncher, and Titan Masters Leader Prime (aka Powermaster Prime) shall be mine. :)  Gonna have to take a pass on FortMax but awesome they're doing him.

    Interesting that Combiner Wars stuff like Victorion is almost being folded into the Titan Returns stuff despite still being labeled Combiner Wars. I like how the two lines are sort of dovetailing.

    Yeah, actually. I really like that their still releasing some Combiner's along with the upcoming line. :D 

    I just noticed the cool new Rescue bot is called "Quickshadow", looking forward to learning about her.

    Definitely not the first time Optimus Prime takes flight.
    Even for this version that ties back to the Transformers prime series.
    His beast hunters armor could fly.

    Ah well. Probably not going to see that tagline beyond this preview card.

    But its a cool super robot design. And At least gives me something to look forward to in the RID lineup this year.

    Titans return with the titan masters head robots being compatible with everything is perfect. I've wanted to see this vertical play pattern across the line again for years, more characters to collect and they can all interact and hang out in a way that makes sense for the transformers universe . (not three different bumblebees discussing their gimmicks for the pricepoint) This may be the best line since cybertron/galaxy force for doing just that.

    Cool that rescue bots is getting a new firehouse with a spacebridge.
    I enjoyed their old playsets a lot.

    Was Fortress Maximus supposed to be the same height as Metropolex? he looks smaller here...

    Fort Max WILL be mine!

    I'm not getting the whole line like I am with CW, but I will get a few. It seems it's mostly the bigger figures, alas..

    Blaster (and his minions), Sentinel Prime, PM Optimus Prime, Galvatron, Soundwave (and his minions). Also the theoretical Nightbeat and Siren full figures.

    Hey. Nice Fort Max looks... Pretty much as expected, and less Metroplex-y then I'd feared he might. Solid job.

    And they actually made Victorion look good for the first time in that picture... Are the colors tweaked?

    I like the Fort Max, but at that scale and with those proportions, the Cerebros head seems just a tad too big on the body. Despite that though it will be in my collection.

    Alas, no. The silver sword is breaking up all of the red and teal... Which just shows that she needs MORE SILVER in the individual bots...

    The Titans Return stuff looks pretty good. That Power Surge Optimus Prime, though... I want to get it... I want to get it and repurpose it as Thunderclash, the Greatest Autobot Who Ever Lived!

    None of the figures are properly in scale, but yes FM is Metroplex height.

    Wow, you're right. The chest is definitely inspired by Thunderclash at least. He's got some customizing potential...

    "First time Optimus Prime takes flight"

    I know this presentation is for investors, who may not be familiar with the fiction...
    but there were 3 highly profitable films in which Optimus flew. Lol.

    However, with the feathered wings we see in the preview, I'm thinking the idea being awkwardly conveyed is first winged flight. Which is accurate. Optimus Primal had a bat form which was toy only, but he is a different character. Not that marketing is likely to even be aware of 20 year old product.
    So Optimus gets his wings! Can we get a Nemesis Prime redeco, with some deco cues taken from Marvel's Archangel?

    Fortress Maximus looks amazing. He's on my list for sure. The new plans for RID look intriguing as well. I guess that part in the Season 2 trailer when Optimus Prime is in the air and being electrocuted, is when he will get his new form.

    Fort Max looks fantastic. Looking forward to seeing some physical shots of him, and of course eventually owning him.

    This is probably the 3-part movie mentioned in Season 2 sale sheets last year. They mentioned "19 episodes or 16 episodes + movie"

    Everything looks good to me. Can't wait to see Fort Max at retail.
