Combiner Wars/Generations

I was messing with the Titan Masters tonight and noticed that none of the Wave 2 TM-class head figures have their faces painted. In contrast, the faces of their Wave 1 counterparts are all coloured in one way or another.

I'm a fan of the Titan Master figures so far, a surprised one, in fact, but seriously, what was RehashBro thinking? I'm totally fine with their doing repaint-jobs on these cute, little triple-changers, but where the hell are the paints?!

Powermaster OP was a great figure, and I wished we had an equivalent sized figure with the Headmaster gimmick for Megatron.

Is there a way to make the thruster looking holes on Prime's shoulder pylons to aim backwards to look more like thrusters? Even if they are upright, it might break up the whole "two halves of a truck cab hanging of a plane" look.

Astrotrain, Blitzwing, Octane, and Broadside are all the original uses of the molds (or pre-molds) of Sentinel, Prime, Megatron, and Tidal Wave.

They have been doing that for a while now.

Hopefully TR will release a better Wheeljack, Sunstreaker, Mirage, Prowl, Bluestreak, Smokescreen, Tracks figures

Unlikely. None of those are on the confirmed/rumoured lists, and by then we'll move on.

IMO Wheeljack, Tracks, Sunstreaker have terrific figures previously in CHUG. The Datsun bros have solid toys.

For me, I'm absolutely sick and tired of seeing season 1 Autobot Cars. I know they're among the most popular yet they're done to death. One thing I'm loving about Titans Return is getting toys of characters we've rarely seen updated, or NEVER gotten since G1. I'll take a Triggerhappy over another fucking car from the original MTMTE three-parter.

You can do this:
