I remember Omega Supreme being quite popular when I was young, but my favorite toy of all was Trypticon. I carried him everwhere I went like a teddy bear, and I even had him lay on the pillow next to me while I slept. My dad eventually gave the toy to charity, but I always wished he hadn't. When I finally started to earn real money as an adult, I purchased the reissued Typticon a couple years ago and he sits in my room once more

Had high moon been allowed to cobtinue making great Transformers games, and let the story continue, there's a simple way to bring him back. His Spark is inside the Ark now. When Autobot city us built on earth, the Autobots discover the conscious Titan spark, like a ghost in the machine and upload it into the new autobot city.

My favorite titan transformer is definitely Metroplex. I remember as a child watching Transformers Cybertron and enjoying its iteration of the character. Then, Fall of Cybertron comes out, and his version there is fantastic. I love how he’s this secret weapon slumbering for years, waiting for the call by whichever prime needed him. That, and I love how he’s essentially a walking talking artillery platform, destroying everything I tell him to.

I think I'm gonna have to pin this one - no, Omega Supreme isn't a Titan. He turns into a rocket launchpad, not a city. He's roughly the height of a combiner - he'd fit in the palm of a Titan's hand. He's now had a Titan-class figure released in the "Siege" line, but being a Titan-class figure isn't the same as being "A TITAN" in-fiction (elsewise Devastator and Predaking would count too), and while it's possible some media might take this approach with him in the future, none has yet. Same deal for Overlord, Star Convoy, Dai Atlas, Grandus, Gigastorm, etc - they are just tall, ordinary Transformers who, at best transform into bases scaled to be crewed by human/Micromaster-scale beings. That scale issue related to the matter of BlackZarak that a few people have brought up - my concern there was actually not "do I mention BlackZarak," but rather, "do I even mention Grand Maximus," because the fictional appearances of those these characters in the Masterforce cartoon only present them as being about combiner-height. In the end I went back to their tech specs, which specifically called out Grand as a huge fortress, and BlackZarak as shrunken from his original height, so I split the difference, also factoring in that Scorponok and BlackZarak are the same character, so I stressed that it was about "new characters," not "new toys," while also including a short clip of BZ. The greater complications of the Maximuses and Zaraks would, of course, be addressed in any future episodes dedicated to those individual characters.

Chris McFeely - I see. I just figured, OG Metroplex was just a fortress, not a whole city, and OG Omega Supreme is so big, his arms, alone, turn into a rocket big enough to carry most, if not all, of the season 1 and 2 Autobots, I thought they, or at least the original cartoon’s depiction, would be of comparable size.

Chris McFeely I'm pretty sure that combiners would reach up to Omega Supreme's knee( except Predaking or Volcanicus) . It would make sense if they did, I mean just think about the scale and Omega Supreme reaches up to a Titan's knee. But that's just my own personal opinion, and Omega Supreme is still not a Titan.

If I had to pick a favorite it would be Scorponok, mostly because of his figure design, the fact that he has a beast mode and the way he was portrayed in the Marvel G1 Comic. On that note I think that the many versions of Scorponok would make for a very intriguing episode of The Basics.

You mentioned the difficulty of scale for figures. I always thought the Energon line did this really well. Prime, Galvatron, and Omega stood their right size next to other bots, yet if you put them next to Unicorn and Primus planet figures, they matched the scale there for when they grew to larger sizes in the show. The scale matched for whichever figure they were next to.

I get scaling down Scorponok, but Fortress Maximus just sounds like Titan class name. Probably why I don't have associate Scorponok with being a cityfomer. Big at times, but not THAT kind of big. And Trypticon is often a kaiju bot, lest he be a knockoff Grimlock with a backpack. So this clears up some things on why I've felt it weird that the Autobots had Fortress Maximus and Metroplex, but the 'cons only had Trypticon. 6:30 Could they also combine into a single starship that doubled as Primus' BFG? :) 6:54 sounds like one of the better ones to be on. At minimum, probably going to have better equipment quality. 7:28 Now that's just wild to hear, but also a lot of fun story potential 9:04 So I know there's discrepancy in size, though Metroplex seems to usually be bigger, but when you have Omega Supreme manning a turret on your shoulder..... I also feel like this is just too ridiculous of a feature to have. Like... having Omega Supreme dock to Metroplex in multiple places like Armada's minicons (in both mode sets) would work better. Sitting in an existing turret? A bit much.

Muhd Wahid in head masters it was his head that was the 'brains'...he was known as "fortress" and the main (larger city bot) was simply a starship for the headmasters to travel around in.it didn't have a mind of its own or come "alive" untill fortress merged with it....and in headmasters ALL of the mini bots (heads in robot mode) were actually genuine transformers who built the larger bots (transtectors) so they could have vechilles to pilot and then transform into regular sized robots to enable them to join in the fight which is completley different to how the headmasters were portrayed in the west.

I have a couple of Titan class Transformers myself.. Destruction Scorpion & Odin from Master Made Toys.. I LOVE how intricate they are, considering their size!! They're SOOO small compared to their mainline counterparts & you wouldn't THINK considering their size & how they look that they could transform, but they DO!! Scorpinok has HIS Headmaster Zarek & Fortress Maximus has HIS Headmaster, as well as his Headmasters Headmaster, Cerebros & Spike/Emissary respectively.. Still wanna get my hands on the rest of their wares, JUST cuz they all look awesome, but "Bennies" ARE a thing & sadly, 3rd party figures aren't cheap..

9:10 Sometimes I really forget how big the Titans are sometimes. Omega Supreme can make most Combiners shake straight down to their core components but there he is manning a cannon on Metroplex's shoulder. If they ever release a Titan that is correctly scaled the thing would have to be like 6 foot tall and I guarantee, considering Haslab Unicron is like 500 to 600 USD, that a scaled Titan would be every bit of 2000 USD.

Apparently I need to check out IDW comics. I love the term Titans--mythic and visceral, and effortlessly communicates the vastness I have always imagined a city Transformer to have. Long time ago (early 90s), I started a screenplay for a new (animated) TF movie that opened with Trypticon descending, in dinosaur mode, into San Francisco bay, absolutely dwarfing the city itself and devastating it with a tsunami as his opening act. Fun fact: writing a screenplay is much harder than writing other sorts of fiction (for me, at any rate), and I gave up after what would have been about 20 minutes of screen time. I just got bored with fiddling with the format so much more than getting the story on paper.

It's a shame due to their size and how expensive they would be, they can't make many of them in toy form. I originally thought only four of them existist like Metroplex, Fortress Maxiumus, Scorponok and Trypicon but thanks to that Cyberverse cartoon showing more, I wanted to see those new ones in toy forms!

What I love about these videos is they are great research for my own Transformers continuity fic (hopefully I'll be able to start writing by the end of the year). Debating on kind of using a composite character for Omega Supreme and Fortress Maximus. Cause why shouldn't old OS be the biggest thing there is?

I would have thought that G1 Overlord would have counted as a city bot. Even the painted battle scene on the back of his packaging had him loom over the horizon. Gigastorm, the Trypticon retool or Black Zarak? Fortress Maximus was part of the RID Car Robots series and Robotmasters during the early 2000's. I'd have liked to see Armada Tidal Wave included among the Titans. While not a city, he was basically a base/full level on the wonderful Armada game on the PS2 and looked fantastic towering over the atoll as you fought him in the game.
