Compatible toys in other lines
Legends

The Titans Return line did not see release in Japanese markets; TakaraTomy instead elected to roll its toy molds into the concurrent Transformers Legends toyline. Legends releases were differentiated by their markedly different colours schemes, often including newly-tooled faces, generally attempting to replicate each character's appearance as seen in the original Generation 1 anime series. With the absence of a dedicated Titan Master Class price point, Legends released the single-packed Titan Master toolings split up as pack-in partners with larger toys; examples include the Titans Return Loudmouth toy, which became the separate robot Goshooter and vehicle Cargo, and the Titans Return Terri-Bull toy, which became Bullhorn and Tankette. This even extended to Titan Master Repugnus; for Japanese fans to get a complete "Repug", they had to purchase his head and body/vehicle separately with Gong and Broadside respectively. As the line proceeded, the amount of retooled parts increased from merely new faces to dedicated new Titan Master molds, extensive changes to the toy's appearance, and even one completely original Leader-sized toy.
Associated fiction generally repurposed the Titan Masters as Headmasters and Godmasters (with larger Transtector bodies), though in toy terms, they remain cross-compatible with the Titan Master head swapping gimmick. The Titans Return compatible toys in Legends are as follows:
