No way. The helmets were ugly, restricted articulation and made the headmasters either have too small faces or make their dedicated headmasters have next to no helmet, compromising their cross compatibility anyway.
Sounds pretty accurate to G1 Scorponok to me....
It might work for IDW Fort Max.
But really he wasn't a headmaster.
On that note, it could also work for a bendy commander class G1 Metroplex who'd work great with mini-cons and micromasters like the original did.

That wasn’t Max. It was the DJD guy who had the chest grinder.
Oh...
Brutal.
Brutal.
And that was after he ripped the other Con in half with his bare hands. Because horrible gory violence doesn't count if they're robots.
Saban and The CW beg to differ.
In reference to how quite a lot of Transformers: Prime's robot violence was censored when the first season of that show aired on Vortexx.
Just ask Samurai Jack!
Walmart’s Star Raiders Leader class offering has been leaked, and it is a Thundertron set. Featuring Thundertron with a hook hand and new head sculpt (more evocative of the original toy’s design), he also comes with Calcitron (a Magneous retool in shades of blue) and a Siege Ratbat retool styled after RiD15’s Nightstrike.

My only real “meh” response is that Thundertron isn’t more visually interesting that his normal retail release. The new hand and head are nice…but the whole set is a lot of white and blue.
Legacy Star Raiders Leader Class Thundertron with Calcitron and Nightstrike First Look
Thanks to S.P.Z. on Instagram we have our first look at the leader class set from the upcoming Star Raiders Walmart Exclusive Capsule. This is actually a three pack with Voyager Thundertron (with a new head and a cool new hook!), Deluxe Calcitron (A partial from Legacy Magneous with a new head)...

If I didn't already have the regular version (and if my Walmart ever bothered to actually get any exclusives), I might go for it, but neither the deco nor mold are good enough to double dip, and I'm not paying leader price for a Ratbat recolor.
I can justify getting this set more for the add-ons than I can Thundertron.
the colors aren’t significantly different enough to make or break either way but I prefer this headsculpt. Less Santa Claus looking. The other dudes are okay I guess, so I’ll go with this release
I held of on Thundertron til this reveal because I wanted to compare. I think I’ll definitely hunt this down over the retail.
Same here.
