    Or if they make Optimus not so much a headmaster as a re-paint of Minimus Ambus (I wouldn't put it passed Hasbro)

    They confirmed he's a Headmaster/Powermaster. I could see the Powermaster replacing Minimus Ambus.

    Give me a very G1/IDW looking Optimus with a bad ass Truck mode with guns all over and a bad ass robot mode that can actually hold his guns and I'll be happy.

    Essentially the Big Adventure Optimus Prime in G1 form.

    This is both pretty interesting and kinda underwhelming.

    I don't like how lines are having a running theme recently since I feel like Combiner Wars is overstaying its welcome and I want normal figures already, especially based on the characters who haven't received a recent update like Rodimus and Galvatron.

    However, a Leader-size Powermaster Optimus Prime would basically be Ginrai so I'm cool about that.

    I guess that means zero chance of a Titan Trypticon or Voyager Astrotrain.

    What about Soundwave and Blaster since we have gotten Buzzsaw and know Ravage is in the pipeline?

    Also Leader Megatron needs someone to go toe to toe with.

    On topic aside from the possibility of a Omega Supreme and a very likely retooled Magnus to Powermaster Optimus Prime, I am not really big on Headmasters.

    So this might give me the opportunity to save some money, which is always good.

    The whole affair was ambiguous in the sense that there was nothing more concrete than the juxtaposition of the "Titan Wars" branding, and the artwork - which appears to originate from the same source as this, which people similarly worked themselves up into a frenzy over, and amounted to nothing.

    At the end of the day, until we have some more substantial to go on, this speculation will likely go on endlessly. My gut feeling is that this either isn't going to go within a thousand miles of where people think it's going, or it's going to culminate in something significantly less noteworthy than anticipated.

    I can't even tell if you're kidding. TransMissions is pretty great.

    Eh, "pretty great" is pushing it. I'd put it at "It's ok".

    No thank you.

    I knew my gut feeling was right. That Titan Wars will be revealed at NYCC.

    This Powermaster Prime sounds very promising. Might use it as my definitive Classics Optimus Prime....maybe.

    of course this fandom will hate it as soon as its revealed and say it ruined it's childhood as always.

    There are notes showing at what time each subject in the podcast starts. You can hear the Titan Wars stuff at about 2 hours and 2 minutes in.

    That's why I keep my show about 15 minutes. I figure NO ONE wants to hear me talk for much longer.

    Yeah, Powermaster Prime will end up awesome immediately after I spent a bunch of money on paint and 3P parts to make my CW Optimus leader class.

    Lol.

    Question, will leader Optimus look like G1(sh) Powermaster Optimus or does anyone think they will do something completely different?
