![]() The front features the character's artwork, giving you a better look at the full body. However these cards are shaped differently, with corners cut out on two sides. Titans Return figures come with a collector card, similar to last year's "Combiner Wars" series. In the case of Breakaway his cosells are Autobot Ptero, Autobot Hot Rod, Voyager Class Optimus Prime and Leader Class Six Shot. The heads of the Titan Masters can be swapped from figure to figure, and the diagram helps illustrate this across size classes. ![]() The back of the packaging shows off the stock photography for the photo but more importantly, it shows off a diagram explaining the way the Titan Master play system works. The side has the now familiar "Generations" logo with an Autobot symbol on it and the vertical "Transformers" logo under it. While entire bodies were drawn for this line, the packaging zooms in to the chest and head to focus on the Titan Master gimmick, wth the head hovering a bit over the body as if it is about to connect. Most of the backing card is plastered with a close up of the character's package art. The side of the insert gives you a look at the character's artwork. An insert shows you the alt mode along with the names of the Titan Master and character along with the "Titans Return" logo. The figure is packaged in robot mode with its weapons to the side. The Titans Return packaging uses the design of the last few years and updates it. Breakaway is a retool/redeco of Chromedome so check out that review for my first impressions of this sculpt. In recent time this character has had a significant role in the IDW Publishing comic books, but for the most part he was ignored by Transformers fiction for many years. One such character is Breakaway (aka Getaway). Some of the characters being brought into "Titans Return" were not Headmasters in previous lines. In some ways the story resembles "Armada" which had a similar conceit for the Mini-Cons. Titan Masters focuses on the return of small robots to Cybertron that can unlock incredible power, and it is up to the Transformers to merge with them and harness those abilities and strengths. Now almost twenty years after they were originally introduced the Headmaster gimmick has returned in a new form: Titan Masters! Headmasters were Transformers whose heads detached and became smaller figures that could then pilot or ride the Transformers in beast and vehicle forms (or in a couple cases, their battle station or city forms!). In 1987 Hasbro and Takara took a bold step into a new play pattern by introducing Headmasters. Once figures like Combiners were introduced it became clear Transformers could be more than just a robot that changed from one form to another. ![]() Figure Specs: Deluxe Class Autobot Breakaway Modes: robot, sports car Converts in 12 Steps Works with other Titan Master figures (each sold separately) 2 accessories Comes with a collector card with tech specs Titan Master Autobot Throttle Modes: robot, head Converts in 1 step Transformers and all related characters are trademarks of Hasbro.Įarly on in the life of the Transformers line the toy line began to move away from the sole gimmick of transformation.
