Hasbro have sent us official images of the remaining two new entries in Titans Return Deluxe Wave 2 – Wolfwire (Weirdwolf) and Highbrow. Partnered with these two are Titanmasters Xort and Monxo. We’ve also got images – head modes only – of the four Titan Masters in Titan Masters Wave 2 – Clobber, Apeface, Skytread, and Brawn, who bear resemblance to Grimlock, Apeface, Flywheels, and Brawn respectively.
Check out the images after the jump!

I know I'm in the minority, but I really want a Voyager Overlord. They aimed big with the Constructicons last year and you can tell they suffered a little due to stretching out the plastic budget. A Voyager toy would allow for a much more solid figure.
Of course, TR Leaders are the ones with base modes, so I think it's a foregone conclusion. I might actually look and see what Takara does with the paint this one. If Hasbro's has an IDW face and Takara's doesn't than It's an automatic no sale, bit if the yen isn't too strong he might be for me.
It's already looking like I have my primary Transformers purchase for 2017 in the books then.

Yeah, current leaders = old Ultras (slightly bigger… But MUCH lighter)

Does anybody know how the new version of Brainstorm will be released. Will he be released individually or in a pack
SouthtownKid
In any case, if Overlord is scheduled for release in 2017, we already know what the one Titan release that year will be: Trypticon. So Titan class is off the table, regardless (thankfully).
Fort Max
My money is definitely on leader class for overlord, he's big and bad but he's no where close to being a titan.
SouthtownKid
Let's wait to see what that looks like and if it even actually happens.
Anyway, if they made Overlord a circa 2009-sized Leader, everything would work out, even if a Godbomber add-on increases PMOP's height. Magnus is a pretty small figure next to Leader figures of old. Absolutely tiny.

TR PMOP = CW Magnus = 9 inch
If TR Overlord will be 10 inch, that'll be great.

Except when Apex Armor/Godbomber is affixed onto Powermaster Optimus Prime.
I'll expect to see him taller with that.

Leader is the perfect size for Overlord: comparable in size to the Leader Powermaster Optimus that we're getting and also scaling appropriately with the Wreckers/Lost Light crew.

a thousand times yes. Please take heed Hasbro!
I'd also take a Pyro from Hotspot and, at a push, an Ironfist from Swindle.

Nope, Overlord was never in the UK comics. His only appearances are in IDW and in Masterforce. I'm happy with a large Leader class, that would be a suitably huge version of the guy. My preference is on having my characters within the same relative robot mode size – I'd have a hard time doing a showdown between my IDW Autobots and Overlord if Overlord is hugely oversized.
SouthtownKid
G1 Overlord was about the same size as God Ginrai in the cartoons. Not sure what other G1 fiction Overlord ever appeared in. I don't remember him showing up in the comics. Maybe a UK story? But as small as the comics had Fort Max and Scorponok being, I can't see them having Overlord larger.
And IDW Overlord clearly isn't Titan-sized, before anyone brings him up.
goobahead1
g1 overlord existed and he was massive wasn't it?
SouthtownKid
The only class larger than Leader right now is Titan, which is way way way too big for any version of the character that's ever existed. So I'm hoping and expecting Leader (although I'd prefer a larger Leader like we used to get, not a CW Magnus sized Leader).
Anyway, no way are they planning two Titans for 2017.

Here is a pic from TFormer's gallery. All they showed was this teaser slide on the Powerpoint presentation. It was animated with the silhouettes sliding into each other followed by a "2017" date popping up on top. The Hasbro people then said something along the lines of "we don't want to LORD things OVER you guys." Then they showed the animation a second time just in case anyone missed it.
If I had to guess I would probably think Leader class, but I would also prefer it to be something along the lines of the old supreme class (i.e. between a leader and a titan class.) While I'm throwing out wishful thinking, I'm hoping it comes with two Titanmasters (i.e. a Giga and a Mega) with one having the original head and the other a more IDW styled head.

Overlord eh? I didn't see any info on this does someone have a link to the poster/information? Thanks. If they do an OVERLORD he better not be a voyager or leader. Has to be bigger that's fo'sho
So yes!! SOLD

These figures look excellent so far, really tempted to collect some of those Titan Masters, and a few of the larger ones to go with them.

EVERY Titans Return deluxe is very very simple, often in "lazy" or expected ways. Highbrow transforms just like Skullcruncher except with LESS twists.
Mindwipe's wing/legs are the most inventive thing transformation wise out of all the deluxes.
TheGrognard
All of the beast mode headmasters are right out for me since I've seen more up to date photos. Just big flip of the animal mode head onto the back. Very, very lazy transformations from where I sit.
