Most of my interaction with the fandom comes from skimming over threads on Allspark and TFW, and direct interaction on the TCC board.
All I remember seeing about Titaniums when they came out on the popular messageboard was how glorious they are. Reinforced by some bigtime vocal fans on the TCC that would actively critisize someone for not thinking they're the greatest. For a long time anytime anyone got the chance "Why can't the club release the cancelled titaniums???"

I agree with you whole heartedly about diecast being overrated as a medium as a whole.
It drives figure costs up to unreasonable levels, kills detail, and makes joints insanely fragile.
Also agree with Gobots!
mmmmm.... gobots....
Fortunately mindless trendy hate against gobots for no reason at all is finally slowly starting to wane.
