Checking out the manga that will accompany the Takara LGEX Titan Master set ("Hasbro" versions of Brainstorm, Chromedome, Hardhead, Flywheels, etc).

Some spoilers ahead

It looks like these Titan Masters aren't just the Hasbro versions of these toys, but they represent the characters as well..

i.e. Even though the "Chromedome" Titan Master becomes Chromedome's head, it actually represents Stylor, not Chromedome himself - unlike the Takara continuity where Chromedome's head is Chromedome... I hope that made sense...

Basically; it looks to me like the Brainstorm, Chromedome and Hardhead in this set are actually Arcana, Stylor and Duros.

I find Arcana's choice of head-wear to be strange since I thought he was a magician in the US cartoon/Marvel Continuity, not a doctor.. I dunno, I can't read Japanese.. Maybe that's Teslor, and Teslor is a medic??

I think it's cool that Arcana, Duros and Stylor are being released and represented in the Takara market as separate characters from Brainstorm, Chromedome and Hardhead (so to speak). I also think it'd be cool if they did the same for Gort, Vorath, Monzo and Grax later down the road. From memory, Vorath was a mad scientist, Monzo was a Pro-wrestler/mobster, and Grax was a ruthless businessman. It'd be interesting to see how they're portrayed in the manga.

EDIT: Ah! I stand corrected; Arcana was a medic. Now the topic well and truly matches the thread
