There were no Titans in H1, while there were two versions of Lords of Thunder (upgraded Titan, level 8, shoots twice!) - but those were re-colored Titans. So, it's OK.
The pic is rather small, though. Would you make another and post it in this thread? I'm afraid you cannot edit your first post since the poll has already started.
Back on topic...
I really like the lightning in H2 (they were the most powerful, too, right?), the helmet and armor of the H3 rendition, and the size and posture of the H4 Titan. I simply cannot decide on this one! 
The H5 guy is... weird.

I almost liked the new one excepted that it doesn't look like a titan at all. I don't know exactly how to explain it, but it's nothing but a black guy with electricity around, it doesn't look big and tall.
I liked the upgraded H2 ones, but the color of the giant was a little weird. I would bet the giant in H5 is blue too, which is probably a good thing since it's in the blueskins town.
I don't like the H3 ones at all, they look weak. However I like that their skin is not pink.
And therefore I don't like the skin color of the H5 titan, it looks like a very tall guy. However I like the design. The way it was walking does not fit perfectly, but overall, I'll say this is my favorite.
Close second is the H5 titan which should look more impressive but is nice, and very close third is the H2 titan.

Homm2 for sure... the only, truly though looking guy. The homm5 titan is just plain weird... like a guy getting turned into charcoal from electricution.

The Heroes 2 guy is just wierd. He has a cartoon lightning bolt and looks fat.
The H4 one is not bad, nothing special though just looks like a barbarian who throws lightning.
The H5 one I think is actually pretty cool and it was a tough choice, but the Titan from H3 looks closest to the actual greek mythological Titan, and does it in a cool way. I especially like the thunderbolts he carries.

Although the H4 Titan looks best, I voted for the H3 one. (Probably becaused I'm biased since MM6 and its sequels got the H3 version  )
Where's the H5 picture from? It's the first time I see it, this Titan might become cool, too, but I can't judge from that small picture.

Okay, give him some armor, replace the white hair with a helmet or bald head, and REMOVE the idiotic red plushy...stuff on those...pin-thingies. Then and only then it might look cool.
Why on earth does the lead designer think that unmotivated, cheesy and often unidentifiable stuff protruding from various bodyparts will add "detail" or even make his models look cooler?!?
There's a long list of unexcusable examples: Skeleton boot, twisted Nightmare horn, generally stuff on the back of inferno creatures, Unicorn tattoos & hair, Titan bracers, Hydra skull chain, Ghost's crowns, and and and. My latest discovery are some sticks protruding from the back of the Lich.

This is indeed the most difficult poll, because all of them are flawed. It's either the posture, the helmet, the sword, the armor, etc.
In the end I had to go with the H5 despite the red feathers on his arms (which are, what, dischargers? ) But the fact he's "obsidianly" black, with white hair and all those electric arches around him make me like him as concept.

What are they smoking? The Titan costume looks like a gay parade. The Titans should be feared, and this one looks like a (bad) joke to me.
Once again, I'll wait and see what will be the final result. Maybe it will be better finished.

But then again when a design such as that was supposed to be a Titan, he has reasons to be negative lol... I mean come on, lose those braces and put on some decent armour. A helmet would do nicely too, as it follows the tradition of previous homm titans.

However I would prefer you to be less negative. The negativism spoils the thread atmosphere and it becomes not really pleasant to read. Honestly, because of you I was going to post a thread about negativism... From a members perspective I can honestly say that I lose interest in reading threads nor involving in discussions where only dirt is spilled over and over... Why not to say something positive ? Adn furhter more why to be so negative, when it's already too late to change anything in those creature's looks ?

Well, Lich King, he still has a point... I mean, I understand him, I was there a little while ago and I'll probably be again sometime soon (as soon as they reveal new info )
It seems it's not to late to alter the creatures, we've seen it done in the angel, right? Well, not that they've listened to our complaints, since they've remained unanswered, they just modified something that was of no importance, but still.
Sometime they bring forth some preposterous creatures, and they probably say "they'll get used to it, we like it..." and they really need to see that's not gonna happen. It's like a deja-vu, now that we know what happened to H4. And none of us wants an H4 experience (at least in term of creature design). Correction: maybe 1-2% still do.
So, true, strong language is to be avoided, but if I feel angry to see those creatures I have to let the developers know that, so they don't fool themselves thinking I will play the game for more than a couple of months. Now, while there's still time.

I agree with you, but there is a slight difference btw when you voice your opinion with a polite argumentation, like "I do not like the object design because of that and that and that, I would think that a proper that and that could really improve the designs...", but not start sentence with "What they were smoking ?". Of course I do not tell anyone what to write or not what to write, the post I posted above was my opnion. Anyway I think we got way offtopic.
Ontopic now. I can't say I dislike heroes V titan, it looks not like it looked in previous series. In Heroes IV it looked more like Giant, since Titans in previous series had lightning bolts in their hands. And as someone mentioned earlier, the Homm3 Titan was not built from MM6 Titan, since I think that MM Titan was built upon Homm2 designs. I need first see how Homm5 Titan looks in battle. For me it's new and as I saw most Academy creatures are redone, because they've changed native grounds.

OK, on topic:
I like at the H5 titan that you can see the effects of electricity on himself.
And I don't think he needs armor, his skin at that size should be pretty tough, just like dragon's. If that is skin, because, remember in the movie of H3 when he squashes the harpies he really looks like stone built.
But he needs to loose the feathers, those are hilarious and useless.
