    Saw this video. At 5 minutes in the Hasbro exec talks to someone about wanting to get the most out of the tooling they can by recoloring it as Metrotitan.

    Staff edit: video is near 4:45.

    Little hard to get excited for that, isn't it? Sounds more like an exclusive.

    I'd prefer them re-tooling him and re-painting him into Fortress Maximus.

    Good news for us, bad news for our wallets. From the sound of it, they have big plans for the Titan class. Literally.

    What? NO. Just ... no.

    Exactly. Their bodies look nothing alike. Plus, if Hasbro is going to do a Fort Max anytime soon he'll be based on the IDW version, and be a voyager. Maaaaaybe an ultra at the biggest, but I doubt it.

    And this comes as a surprise to completely no one.

    I admit, i'll possibly bite on this, depending how great the toy ends up being.

    Good news: They are releasing Metrotitans in 8 different colors.

    Bad news: They are blind packed!
