    Hi Guys, just got this guy today and is my first titanium figure (it's really great, i love the weight that it carries with it for such a small figure), and was wondering, is it just me or did ALL the Titaniums came with a pedestal kind of lije the ones for the MP Seekers?, or only SOME of the Titaniums did?
    Thanks for clarifying this since my Thrust didn't bring any.
    Thanks again.

    IIRC, all of the titaniums came with a pedestal, insignia and the name of the character. I sold all of mine long ago so that's going on memory.

    As far as I know, all of them did. At least all of mine did... Thrust doesn't have a stand?

    I don't think the Target exclusive Titantiums this time round come with stands.

    Are Titaniums really awesome? I've been on the fence on picking these up. I feel like I'm already too far behind to even start. What inspired these anyways? Is it some IDW or DW series?

    most of the designs were war within versions and the line didn't sell too well. I sold all of mine.

    Titaniums can't be... iffy on the floppy front, but they look good if they can hold a pose. Some are way better (like WW Grimlock) than others (Soundwave).

    I love mine, I got all of the WWI inspired ones. Yeah they (some) are a little floppy, but I still dig them.

    The Seeker molds are actually one of the best Titaniums in my opinion. Grimlock is fantastic. I really like the Prime/Magnus mold too. Scourge and Jetfire are also both great.

    Soundwave, both Megatrons and The Fallen are kinda crummy.

    BTW.. your sig has eaten up way too much of my time. Every time it catches my eye I sit and watch it all the way through. I think it's been about 6 or 7 times so far.

    Say whaaaat? That's bullshit. (not calling you a lair, just saying it sucks if they don't) Tfwiki.net says he comes with a stand, but I don't know if that's accurate yet. It seems pretty ******ed to add 3 figures so late in the line and suddenly they don't have stands.

    Er.. you bought him MISB right? Dang it. That's not what I wanted to read. Does it look like maybe there was space for one in the plastic and it was just missing? Did you get either of the two other Target titaniums that maybe had a stand or not?

    I don't see a stand behind him. I see a giant Decepticon logo in grey.

    All the other figures had them standing on the stands, in package. Like in this pic..

    I would rather loose the stand then pay five bucks more. All my other stands are in a drawer somewhere

    I have all mine on their stands. I kinda like them. Hell, if I could, I'd make stands for all my TFs. (That's a lot of freakin' stands!) I like my MP and tit' stands.

    Titaniums could (probably) have been great but I found them to just be mostly a disappointment overall. The distribution was poor (I never saw Ultra Magnus in a store and this might have been the case for others also). Some of the molds might actually have been more interesting if they were made all in plastic.

    they all came with stands except that one two-pack, but these 3 exclusives also don't come with stands. I never saw Ultra Magnus or WWI Megatron (except the 2 pack and I already had prime damnit!)
