The last, and biggest, figure in the Chaos on Velocitron set. As with Laser Prime, this is my first experience with this mould. The original mould, Sixshot, is well summarised in a previous thread (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showth...hlight=sixshot). The only alterations here are a new face on the Titan Master figure and a new paint job. Although the picture on the back of the box shows a new helmet, the figure itself has the same helmet as Sixshot. The problem with this is that when you put the Titan Master in and close the helmet, the front of the helmet covers the eyes on the Titan Master. This can be prevented by leaving the helmet cocked open, but it doesn’t look that good, especially from the side. I don’t know if this is an issue with Sixshot, or a result of the new Titan Master face. The colours are a fairly good match for his G1 look, but they don't seem to suit the figure as well as Sixshot's do.




Submarine? No, never heard of it.
While the Laser Prime mould that I expected to be my least favourite figure in this set managed to impress me, this figure did not. It is a great mould, no doubt about it, but it is a great Sixshot. I know it’s unrealistic to expect a new mould with 5 different modes, but a little retooling would have gone a long way. Even a little work on the chest would have helped. You can differentiate the bot modes by rearranging wings and fins, but you have fewer options for the remaining five modes. They try to do as much as they can with the new colours but it falls short. If you were a massive Quickswitch fan (I assume such people are out there…) I think you would be quite disappointed. In my Nautica review I said if this was only Nautica ever made I would be happy. I can’t say the same for Quickswitch.
