I think I like the idea of them being Robots that build bigger bodies. Sharing a brain with someone else, out of the blue, and for the REST OF YOUR LIFE, seems torturous.

It was also more realistic (for a cartoon). I didn't give the American version the time of day as a kid when it was first released. I always imagined the humans breaking their bones during the transformation. The Japanese's version of smaller robots wanting to be bigger to fight made more sense.

The concept makes SO much more sense in Japan where the head is the only alive one. Otherwise what does the transformer actually DO when the head isn't around? Like are they even still them at this point if their brains are gone because this was before Sparks were a thing.

I have always loved the Headmasters subline, and I'll quote a response to someone else who likes Headmasters on another platform... "That is why the Headmasters/Brain Masters/Horrorcons/Titans Return have been my favourite sublines of Transformers. I could imagine, if they were real, I would love to be a Headmaster, transforming into the head, having full control over the Cybertronian warrior, and then being able to have a normal life otherwise."

I use to hate this concept but now I really like it. But I prefer how it’s handled in Japan. To reinterpret it for modern TF lore, Headmasters are a Minicon that turn into the heads of their vehicles’ robot modes. It’s much easier to understand than how it’s handled in the west. And makes it more believable than an organic being undergoing surgery to become a robot head. This is how I’d reintroduce the concept, anyway. I’d also change Nebulos into being a Cybertronian colony world. One founded by Micronus. Who later founded the world of the Micromasters. Nebulos would be home to the Head, Target, Power, Battle and any other type of master that act as an accessory to a larger robot. But in the case of Target and Battle masters they are simply a special type of Minicon partner. Not related beyond being a gimmick but the Pretenders I’d make a connection to Onyx Prime for the beastial Decepticons. Being a form of techno-organic beings. They go from beast to vehicle like in the Legacy line. While the Autobots would adopt the ability but use their mass shifting technology to turn into humans (or other aliens). This allows them to hide among worlds like in Japan. This method would later be used by the Cons to create criminal groups on other worlds. Part of their invasion strategy or just for their own profit.

Excellent idea!! I was just thinking about this the other day as well. The Japanese take on headmasters(as well as target masters) waa far better. I think the godmasters/powermasters was kinda lame, though. I think the European release of Overlord changed the Powermaster origin to say they were nameless energin clones, created by Overlord himself. This is a far better origin for them.

I have vivid memory of getting Chromedome at a garage sale when I was in elementary school, which became one of my favorite toys. Of course I didn't know his name until many years later when the Titans Return version came out, which of course I bought immediately. Come to think of it, I think that probably what got me back into collecting Transformers. The Titans Return figure still stands prominently on my shelf, a sort of icon of my history with these toys.

So I loved them and played with them for years.

I personally have a hard time keeping track of the heads' names. If I made a Transformers series my Headmaster origin would be an amalgam of past origins. When Micronus Prime split up from the others he encountered Nebulous. He would team up with the locals creating transforming armor for them that could empower large robots by attaching to them. Some would build larger bodies for themselves, others would team up with larger robots as weapons, and the remaining would remain independent but willing to help others they liked. Long after Micronus joined the Well of All Sparks the locals would evolve into their armor making them more robotic but still organic at their core. As time passed those with larger bodies would seek to control the smaller ones leading to events similar to The Rebirth that would see them meeting, and in some cases bonding to, Cybertronians. There are three types of Headmaster (and by extension Powermaster): converted Cybertronian where the body and head share a mind, bonded pair where they're separate individuals, and OGs from before Cybertron discovered them where the body is just a machine controlled by a smaller individual.

That G1 Fortress Maximums was one of the coolest things I've ever seen online as a kid. And at one point the biggest Transformer figure of all time. Also Headmasters "Head on". Till all are one!

One idea I REALLY want to see more of with the Headmasters themselves are just the robotic head that connects to a larger lifeless body, is for them to better interact with alien species that are close to human sized. Sure they might come off a bit intimidating at first. But not nearly as intimidating as the average sized Cybertronian. This can apply to the Powermasters as well.

And, Brainstorm wants to sue them for stealing his idea, always put copyright trademark on it. 5:21 That nerd should think about which size of heads does work on the Cybertonian tranforming into. 11:21 A one angry Headmaster loves ripping of any Decepticon's heads more deadly than Optimus Prime with taking facing off. 11:50 I with Scrouge's side. 13:15 *Rest in peace, Jason David Frank. You are the amazing actor ever.* 14:14 He will rule the galaxy? His destiny, yeah, sure, Meagt- I mean Galvatron. 16:00 The Japanese version of Transformers Headmasters' story works for me, hope the Headmasters and also Targetmasters return back soon, even non G1 Autobots and Decepticons before go with Headmasters characters form as well, thank you for the Headmasters history and *HEAD ON*

Headmasters were the best, unlike powermasters i never lost the heads of the toys. I still despair losing my darkwings powermaster seeing how much they cost now

Honestly, the Titans Return toyline is easily the most successful of the Prime Wars trilogy, seeing as how we're STILL getting Titan Master-associated toys as of July 2024, with Squeezeplay/Cancer. And I'm grateful that it has given me the best Arcee toy I could ever find. Killed my need for 86 or any other version. Also, it's interesting that, moving forward, it's the Japanese version of the system that has more or less been the norm for their portrayal, as seen with Cogman, and the Animated version prior, whenever we have new takes that aren't meant to be callbacks to The Rebirth. I didn't actually watch the Machinima show, so I didn't know that's how Emissary met his end. Rather ironic that a human-sized Transformer voiced by Jason David Frank gets eaten by a Godzilla-like machine. Nobody can convince me that wasn't intentionally written if he was already cast. Also RIP

I'm writing my own script about Headmasters, based on the Japanese concept of tiny robots that transform into larger bodies. It's a Pentalogy and I created many new ideas and characters and a creation story. Its been a challenge following in the G1 timeline, but I think I have it 😊 I'll be working on part 3 soon. I don't know where I'll go with it but its been an adventure for the past year.

That’s funny since my transformers fanfic series will include the Headmasters. It will mostly be based on the rebirth but it will have stuff from the Japanese series as well. Surprisingly it will lead into Beast Wars with an ending mix of the regeneration one and that Optimus Primal is Cerebros son.

I love Headmasters and Powermasters, not a big fan of target masters, though (isn't G1 Megatron technically a target master??). My favorite Headmasters were from the OG Marvel Comics. I think I recall that overtime, the consciousness of the Nebulon (or Human) fully merged with that of the Transformer they bonded with.
