Part of the fifth and final wave of Titans Return Leader Class toys, ”Decepticon Overlord” is a heavy retool of the same line’s Sky Shadow: the tank component is mostly a redeco with the waist slightly retooled, but the jet component is an entirely new sculpt. He retains the ability to split into both a tank and a jet simultaneously, as well as a combined base mode. In another change from Sky Shadow, the jet nosecone is now removable and can be worn as a shield on either shoulder in robot mode. It can also plug into his chest as additional armor, and the tip can be removed to make the bottom hatch more accessible.
In homage to his original Godmaster gimmick, Overlord has two opening doors on his chest which reveal slots for the storage of two individual Titan Master or Prime Master figures (one in each pectoral) in head/spark mode. Care must be taken though, as these compartments are VERY snug and the Titan Master may get stuck inside or will not fit altogether, depending on the head sculpt. The pectoral slots are also not deep enough to allow the doors to close once a Titan Master or Prime Master has been inserted.
His tank mode still has the clips from Sky Shadow that allow for Sky Shadow’s jet component to carry it, but lacks the corresponding connector on his jet component. Instead the Jet can be mounted on top of the tank by clamping Overlord’s chest doors along the Tank’s cab sides, although this only loosely secures it. There is also a detail sculpted at the base of his torso (ostensibly landing gear) that can be used as a base connector like the ones in his feet.
On some figures, the 5 mm hole on his tank where his gun plugs in and the holes on his shoulders are extremely snug, which can make it difficult to remove anything that might be plugged into them. The 5 mm post on his jet’s nose that allows it to be used as a shield is also extremely prone to popping out, in part because of the former issue.
Both the CG renders depicted on the back of his packaging and the official stock photos depicting a near-final sample show both the tank and the jet mode with the gun/tank barrel attached, thereby implying that he includes two weapons, one to be used for each mode, even though the figure only includes one weapon. Additionally, both the CG render and the stock photo of his base mode have the section of the tank/right leg that contains a cockpit for a Titan Master flipped up, the same way Sky Shadow’s base mode is also depicted in his own CG renders and stock photos, even though the instructions show the cockpit being folded down for the base mode.
Sadly, his lips are not terribly kissable.
