Thanks to 2005 Boards Venksta from Renderforms for letting us know that they will be releasing a set of updated G1-style weapons for Titan Returns figures. The first set is for the original Autobot Headmasters.
Each set comes with two guns, color matched to the figure, in accordance to how the original G1 versions looked. You can pick the sets you want, or buy them as a bundle deal.
Also available are two different slingshots for TR Wheelie. One based off the TFTM look, and the other one based off the TR box art, designed by Marcelo Matere!
Finally, Renderform is releasing the Barbaric Emperor upgrade set for your Titans Return Galvatron. This set will convert the figure into the IDW comic version of Galvatron and includes a brand new head, three swappable faces, a side cannon adaptor and a battle axe.
You can check the pictures after the jump, and sound off at the 2005 Boards.

Will you release some more for the new retro headmasters colours?

Hey, anybody here interested in a Universe Skyfall (Skyjack) with upgrade kit? PM me if so, otherwise he’s off to eBay.
Venksta
If you didn't get a shipping confirmation by now, you need to get in touch with me. I'll send you a PM, Unicronic. I did have an order shipped to Hong Kong last weekend, so might of been yours.
I'd keep the blue and red Jazz rifle. Those actually are one of a kinds, and hard to replicate.

That mix-colour rifle is amazing. Too nice to repaint
Glad they're on the way though!

Just got mine yesterday. Venksta said that he is shipping out a big batch of 200 orders so hopefully others will get theirs soon too… I also got an OP G1 Ion Blaster, translucent Brainstorm rifle and some "bad batch" pieces I will repaint.

I got my legends set in mid July, although I know at the time he was still trying to catch up to orders.
Send him a PM, he's pretty good about responding when he can.
malcontentman
Anyone else receive their sets yet? Still waiting on mine…
pandaprime
well if i want to be super picky I can point out the red for chromedome's weapons is off slightly but i'm not sure if they were meant for the Takara version and not Hasbro version. Also one of hardhead's green guns fits too loosely in his fist hole but some clear nail polish will take care of that.
DanLyons
Glad to hear that they're finally arriving. I had just about given up hope of ever seeing them. Hopefully I'll get my order soon.
Optimugatron
Any noticeable changes from the website pics? They looked perfect online.

Ordered these weapons back on May 18, 2017 and finally received them today. It's a quality product. I guess customers have to show super patience when dealing with this seller.
unicronic
It is now over 365 days since I paid for this and no news on shipping.
Very disappointing.

Venksta is on the boards and does look at this thread. I have purchased from him a few times and even though it takes a long while since he does it all himself I believe, he has come through. If you requested a refund though, then yeah, I would PM him.

Best way I have found is to message him on Facebook. He is a great guy, and makes the items by hand with advanced design techniques, cadcam and I think 3D print design…I have found once the design and batch is complete he gets the items out quick and well packed. He usually responds promptly on Facebook ive found as well. I'd recommend certainly communicating with him if you can and give him the opportunity to fill the order or return funds.
Mecheon
Yeah, I ordered back in May and haven't heard anything as yet
Mind, y'know, I ordered it with the Galvatron head and that seems to be what are taking up the most time. But dang, when these finally show up, its gonna be great
CronoSabre
Thanks @Optimugatron, I will give that a shot. I have also been waiting about since around May/June of last year. I've had good experiences in the past with Venksta and his work is great, but it has just been too long at this point for me.
Strike Creamsicle
/agree with @Optimugatron on all counts. I ordered a set of these plus the Baldigus weapons and still waiting on them. I trust Venksta, even though it's been a real long while on this one. Still looking forward to getting them in hand, and thinking to order a few other pieces after that, too.
Optimugatron
Try a PM directly to him on this site. That was the best luck I had, aside from him popping on here to reply to the forum posts.
Actually yes. I have been waiting since June for my ordered weapons as well as the TR Galvatron upgrade kit. Others have been waiting longer. I know he is progressing toward filling older orders, but I have not seen an update in weeks. I can only assume new orders, such as yours will take even longer. He did state that he had substantially more orders than anticipated for the weapons and upgrade kits.
All things considered, Venksta is a stand-up guy who delivers top-notch products worth waiting for. I admit, however, that even my patience is wearing a bit thin, but I trust him, and look forward to receiving my orders, whenever that may be.

I ordered this set in December and still nothing, is this typical?
