Re: Titans Returns Trypticon - New Pic

I actually like the fugly Omega, lol...

Re: repaints, we haven't really seen any repaints of larger figures like Metroplex, Devastator, and Fortress Maximus to date. So I doubt we'll get any repaints from the Trypticon mold (unless you count slight changes to the decos of SDCC exclusives and takara figures).

I was hopeful we'd eventually get a Metrotitan, G2 Devy, Diaclone Devy, Brave Max, and Grand Max...

Hopefully, one day.

Platinum Metrotitan. 2025, when all interest in the mold will be lost. Just watch it.

Re: Titans Returns Trypticon - New Pic

I'm hoping for some shoulder pivot, among other things.

Disappointed that there isn't a FoC starship mode, or Trypticon station mode, but then you can't please everyone.

As for 3rd party add-ons, I can see a FoC arm and missile pack mod, tail mod, something for Brunt, and of course additional weapons to make him armed to the teeth.

Looking forward to seeing better views of Full-Tilt and who he could possibly be retooled into (I'm guessing Sureshot and Spoilsport). But then again, we never got a repaint/retool of Scamper (yet).

Much like Metroplex was a G1 update, Trypticon also looks like he has that sort of update too.

Odds are there are parts pre-tooled for Omega Supreme and Scorponok in there all over the place. I also wouldn't be surprised if some of Metroplex and Fortress Maximus' parts will also be recycled for Scorponok and Omega Supreme.

I thought there's a 3P prototype WFC Trypticon shown at TFCON last year?

Fort Max is a retool of Metroplex.

Not sure what Takara could add to Mecha Godzilla Trypticon. The colour may be a darker black/greyto match the TV animation.

But do add some buildings

I missed out last year, I meant in a HasTak release. I miss WfC and FoC, so sad that HasTak didn't do a full run of figures for those games.

Just found it: Planet X PX-11 Apocalypse (WFC Trypticon) set A and set B.

I need those sets in my life. How big were they?

Re: Titans Returns Trypticon - New Pic

Set A just came out. (The top half)

Set B comes out in March. It's big, and pricy, but I think it looks incredible. That will be my big purchase for 2017. Ha ha.
