    I like that Highbrow will be bigger, but honestly I've been having so much fun with the Titans Return playpattern that unless there was some sort of helmet gimmick that allows the cross-compatible titanmaster size to be retained I won't be interested.

    I just got Broadside tonight, and now I'm wishing they would upscale him to leader or bigger. He should have been the leader while blaster and soundwave could have been voyager. I know why it was done the way it was, but still can dream. I doubt WJ will give us an enlarged Broadside, but I can hope. (I'd really like him as a Titan, but Hah, yeah right)

    agreed. The cross compatibility is my favorite part.

    Still, I guess I may be interested in one or two of the molds being upsized. I wouldn't mind a larger version of that Chromedome to put in my IDW collection.

    Definitely in for a voyager Hardhead. Now @nonnef will have to upscale his feet though :p

    You inspire me to hope they might make a voyager sized but improved TR Galvatron ko with wings, thrusters, G1 shoulders, an adapter for the cannon and no helmet.
    Better still: they might re-engineer him so he wouldnt be a headmaster.

    I'm with ya there! I liked TR Blaster & Soundwave, but Voyagers would have been better. I'm back to using FOC Blaster & Soundy on my CHUG shelves.

    I could argue that Broadside isn't recognisable enough (compared to the likes of Soundwave) to merit such a large scale figure... but considering we just got a Leader class Black Shadow....

    A voyager scale Getaway and the voyager Megatron in Flywheels colours would be fantastic!

    Personally I think those hoping for these figures to be reengineered to the point of removing the headmasters are setting themselves up for disappointment. Small fixes like skullsmashers legs are one thing, removing the gimmick the figure is centered around would be a little more extensive on many of the figures

    I'd be all over that Flywheels like flies on poop. I'm still holding out hope one of these unannounced TR box sets will contain such a figure.

    I'm not getting these, but I would have if I didn't buy my kids the TR ones already.

    I think the TR figure I want an oversized version of most is Broadside, preferably Supreme-class.

    I'm a simple man with simple tastes. Just give me an up scaled Hardhead and I will be quite happy.

    And Brainstorm. Bur not as a Blurt remold. But like this Cheetimus custom. Works far better. :D

    Of course. Perceptor is best at voyager scale.

    Would definitely be interested in some of these upsized figures. I just hope they add some articulation to the molds where Hasbro forgot. For example, no reason Hardhead couldn't have had a mushroom peg waist.

    I also agree with those who want an upsized Broadside, I just hope they add an axe and work in the altered transformation to allow a flatter jet-mode. (like Stormvapor's custom: Minor/Repaint: - Better Jet Mode for TR Broadside...)

    That does look good. I hope they do some changes to the Mindwipe mold too: maybe give the feet a flip out piece so they can form the speakertowers in batmode.
