This is one of those situations that there's SO MUCH remolding, you have to wonder where did they save money, over a new mold?

Even so, they probably save a ton in engineering and design costs for the transformation/tolerances etc.

I will fill my pants if there is a new Headmaster Fort Max. Now it is 100% confirmed with visual evidence of the toy, I fully expect Ralph to deliver on his promise. |

At least they have the whole hips section & know how much weight the toy can take - so all they did was stick on Metroplexs arms with some new parts.

Ooh- Adam White and I saw one in TRU Birmingham a couple of weeks ago. I could take a picture of it for you, or do you have to see it in person?

Who needs food when you can live off the GLORIOUS RADIANCE of Fortress Maximus?!?
I know I'm an unashamed Max fan, but even so, this is fantastic. It really is what Metroplex should've been - nice and chunky. And deserving of the status "city bot".
If there are any flaws, it's that his head is maybe a little too big. But I'll let that pass, given it's big and looks awesome.
I mean... just look at PM Prime stood there. Barely reaching up to Max's KNEE! I knew this was going to be big, but jeez...
The only other thing I'm hoping for now is that Cerebros has the animation model head. For reasons of nostalgia. But I don't see any pictures of that yet.

Max: No gun. No hand held dual cannon. No sword which proves the pic upthread refers to an exclusive edition |
