    I haven't seen the pictures yet, but "Titanium War Within Optimus Prime" just made me cream my jeans. Badass.

    Everyone wants the images, it's the nature of the beast. I have no problems with other sites linking ot the gallery itself. This is the biggest news of the year so far, and there's ALOT of good stuff there.

    Interesting that the Cybertron packaging isn't really getting a redesign with Primus Unleashed like Armada and Energon did with Unicron Battles and Powerlinx Battles. No complaints here as I think the Cybertron packaging is fantastic, just an observation.

    I've somehow managed to see all the pictures.

    wow. I'm impressed with everything but the attacktix things.

    I really want to see the G1 classics though.

    good lord, I need a job.

    So far aside from War Within Titanium Prime and the other Titanium TF’s I'm pretty under whelmed to say the least.

    Those 20th anniversary BW Prime and Megs just look God awful, especially the Primal which I cant even make eye contact with its just so bad. The Megs I dont know yet as it looks like it may have potential but need a closer look at it as its hard to tell.

    Unicron looks OooK, a definite pickup but nothing exciting.

    Looks like all the hype around Hasbro doing something special for Primus was a bust, looks like I will be getting the Takara one after all.

    Hopefully more is to come, looking forward to seeing painted Mirage but I can already hazard a guess how amazing he is going to look :thumb

    Anyone else think the black smudges around WW Prime's upper body looks bad? Looks like someone wiped grease all over it.

    probably it's hand painted and that's exactly what happened.

    two questions:

    1. has any story been released to explain this unicron?

    and

    2. is this war within prime of the size class that's going to be transformable? I thought I heard that the larger size titaniums were going to be transformable.

    Yeah, it's almost certainly handpainted. People complain about that every year and every year the final toy ends up looking better.

    1. Actually yes. When they showed it at Botcon they explained that when the black hole is closed at the end of Cybertron then Unicron is reborn. Some kind of business about good not being able to exist without evil. The catch being that he starts out small (hence why he's a Deluxe) and will have to work to grow back to his planeteater god self again.

    2. Yes. It says so right on his box.
