When Trypticon was introduced in issue #27 of the Marvel title, he had some help in the form of a loyal minion named Wipe-Out not Full-Tilt. Necro is a fun homage and Easter Egg that calls back to the Generation One Marvel comic book. Under that is a description of Trypticon's ability to "eat" Titan Masters. To the right side is the"eco-system" for the Titan Master play pattern and cosell. The back of the box shows all three modes along with other figures "interacting" with it (such as Sky Shadow). Under that is the "Titans Return" logo along with the names of all the characters in the set. To the left are three smaller pictures showing each of Trypticon's modes. The right side has the vertical "Transformers" logo with the "Generations" logo above it. The box has gorgeous artwork in the front showing Trypticon in a battle. Trypticon is packaged in a large, rectangular box. You can get a look at the original Full-Tilt in my review of Platinum Edition/Reissue Trypticon. Returning with him is Full-Tilt, the vehicle/robot that also came with the original Trypticon. In true "Generations" fashion, Titans Return gives us characters from the Headmasters era in new forms that pay homage to the originals.Ĭontinuing the line of "Titan Class" figures that began with Metroplex and later continued with Fortress Maximus the Decepticons finally get their turn with the release of Trypticon! Trypticon is not alone however. 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. Wherever these Decepticons travel, they bring doom and ultimate destruction.Įarly on in the life of the Transformers line the toy line began to move away from the sole gimmick of transformation. Decepticon Necro harvests the sparks of other bots, consuming the very thing that gives them life. His own Titan Master servant, Decepticon Necro, hungers for something far more sinister. His appetite for destruction is rivaled only by his appetite for Titan Masters, which he consumes like other bots devour refined Energon cubes. With a spaceship mode that allows him to travel between planets and a battle station mode that establishes a stronghold when he arrives, the Decepticon Titan is capable of single-handedly wiping out any target in any location in the galaxy. It also works with Titans Return Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader Class figures (each sold The Decepticon Necro figure becomes the head of the Decepticon Full-Tilt figure. The towering Trypiticon figure comes with a Titan Master Decepticon Necro figure and a Deluxe Class Decepticon Full-Tilt figure. Convert to City Mode and attach Titans Return Leader Class figures to form Nemesis Command, a Decepticon base that works with other Titans Return figures. Imagine Trypticon chows down to power up. When the figure is in dino mode, it 'eats' Titan Master figures (each sold separately). This Titan Class Trypticon figure features three modes: dino, spaceship, and city. It comes with a Decepticon Full-Tilt figure that converts from robot to tank and a Titan Master Decepticon Necro figure that converts from robot to head. Voted into the line by fans, the Triple Changer figure converts from T-Rex to spaceship to city. This Transformers Generations Titans Return Titan Class Trypticon figure is the largest Titan Class Decepticon figure produced to date.
