We've seen official color art for the upcoming Titans Return Fortress Maximus before. But fellow Seibertronian Mindmaster has sent us an image from weibo user zmultiplier. This is another teaser image along the same lines as the recently revealed Combiner Wars Computron. What makes this new picture stand out is what appears to be the Master Sword. Which was previously hinted at in Fort Max's first reveal.

An anonymous source informed us that Fortress Maximus might get a possible release at this year's SDCC, similar to Metroplex and Devastator in previous years. Our source told us that Fort Max MIGHT include the large sword and possibly his smaller gun, which we don't think the retail version will include. Currently, we do not have any confirmation from Hasbro about a SDCC release or any information about possible additional accessories.

That's why you preorder from TCP instead of TFSource; with TCP, you get an extra durable Hylian shield and a bonus Heart container.

I'd better lay off the Zelda jokes, lest Burn forcibly recruits me on Team Stalker!

I had to buy those two separate for my USA G1 Fortmax.

I'm doing an X.I hope Fortmax won't have any electronic gimmicks! Working gimmicks like ramp compartments, launchers,levers, pulleys or elevators fine (as a Fortress) Just no electronics.........PLEASE!

Back to the present fiction. Somehow, prior to the Titans scale, IDW laid down the foundation for Metroplex. What about Fortmax? Last I red he was a "warden" and new Tyrest Accords enforcer (correct me please if I'm wrong)

So how are they,IDW, gonna shoe horn the "character" into being a "fortress",headmaster.....will he also be the leader of the headmaster subgroup?

I still preferred him to being an architect (seems like architects and engineers make good killing machine Titans/combiners) in his old bio.

Reason why I'm pushing this is how creative TT did with Grand Galvatron. Somehow, fitting Galvatron's return between his death and resurrection as Super Megatron. Giving a product a proper back story for use "grown ups" really enhances the "buy me factor".

Original headmaster in the US version was to increase the Autobot's fighting skills (similar to Rebirth) and put the alien robot's under "human control". Even both Tomy and Hb UM had a good back story.

Also, how/where the Primus did Fort get that big@zz sword? Who's he gonna slice it with? Will the "truce"/peace between the 'cons be broken?

And no electronics! 8-}

Probally, like Combiner Wars, Hasbro will force IDW to shoehorn it in, regardless of fit. I really don't care, as long as they once again leave MTMTE alone.

iirc, the reason they called LeBeef's character in the movies 'Sam Witwicky' was because they can't secure spike as a trademark.
He's probably going to be called something completely made up.

I just assumed that it was because while you could just about getting away with Spike as the kid's name in a cartoon, it's less plasible in a live-action movie set in a more 'realistic' world. I know his folks were kooky (especially his mother) but I don't think they'd name a kid 'Spike'.



By the way, the earlier discussion about that Grimlock/Prime two pack? Just ordered from The Entertainer on their eBay listing for £17.49 plus £2.99 postage.

They could name cerebos mini head Fortess after his name in the headmasters cartoon.

I wonder if Takara are already looking at new designs for a pretender shell to go along with this ;)..Though I can't wait to see what they'll do with fort anyway!
Re: New Art - Titans Return Fortress Maximus and Possible Master Sword (1755393)
Posted by Stuartmaximus on January 14th, 2016 @ 8:37am CST
doubtful if they'll go that far with a Pretender Shell! + can't remember if the shell featured on the Headmasters show or not? but obviously there was a toy, speaking of things that may or may not have appeared on the show but obviously had a toy made is Gasket & Grommet! dunno if they'll include those too....with this new Fort Max? the obvious solution would probably be(seeing as this Max is basically a reuse of the Generations Metroplex mold....albeit with retools/repaints ect) Scamper repainted as Cog.

Nice snag! I paid retail for that and only display the Grimlock and I'm still happy with it. He suffers a little bit from giganto chest(and mondo gecko tail) but he looks incredible at the proper angles regardless.

The Shell came with Grand Maximus, which is what I was alluding to. He was in super God masterforce, appearing briefly to aid in fighting black zarak in the moon. He did use the shell briefly in his appearance.

Yeah I don't like his dino mode at all but the robot mode is mostly fine and will suffice. I just wanted a good affordable G1-esque robot Grimmy to pose with my AoE Voyager Grimmy (who at the moment has stolen the dual red swords from a constructbot megatron). The incredibly chromey deluxe Prime is to roll about on my desk and pose and play with while I'm struggling with game development issues. :P

Am looking forward to receiving them. :)

aye but this is Hasbro remember! you can't expect them to include every nuance! + the Cerebros pretender shell came with Grand Maximus was the Takara version of Fort Max! now....a Takara version of this new Fort Max could always include a Pretender Shell for Cerebros! but just don't expect that with the Hasbro version.

I never said hasbro though with regards to the pretender shell I always said Takara, and it's not a case of just putting a pretender shell with fort but them releasing a Grand Maximus and if they were feeling really crazy, a redco as Brave Maximus.

I am nervous to even mention this as people seem to get testy about getting Titan Master versions of characters that were not Headmasters back in the day but this is purely a flight of fancy so everybody chill.

The G1 Grimlock had that cockpit thing on his back, a holdover from the Diaclone version, right so I was imagining a new Titan Master Grimlock that can store it's Titan Master in a similar cockpit in Beast Mode. Name the Titan Master Magnus/Magnos or Rex or something else kingly.

Now if Hasbro wanted to squeeze as much money out of this newly created Grimlock mold as they can, and we know that they do, then they could release a Blue Generation 2 version down the line.

I suppose they could also do a green version in honor of RiD and then if they really, really wanted to I suppose they could release a purple version with a new Titan Master (This time called Darksyde or something)and slap on some Predacon logos for a timely Beast Wars Megatron homage.

Okay I am done and ready to be scolded.

I certainly wouldn't mind a titan master grimlock if they referenced the diaclone cockpit. Though what I really want for grimlock, just because of the sheer absurdity of it, is a retool of titan class trypticon into a godzilla like transector so grimlock can form the head.

did i not say HEAVY RETOOL?

Cyclonus wasn't a concorde or supersonic passenger jet!

Powermaster Optimus Prime wasn't a car transporter!

but we still got, or are getting those, heavy retooled from other characters

oh....& Doubledealer wasn't originally a tank! or a jet! but yet was accepted as such, with the Thrilling 30 Generations version


so anything's possible

How?

Why?


Doubledealer wasn't a space shuttle. Or an avian dino. Or a torso. Or a lynx.

He was a missile truck, a robot, and a condor.


did i not say HEAVY RETOOL?
You did not say how it would be done since Doubledealer's gimmick was having two of the same kind of mode and one kind of the other mode, while the Sky Lynx mold doesn't even have a humanoid robot mode.

it has partly a humanoid mode! with the Combiner torso!

+ how it's done isn't for me to figure out! i don't get paid for such things, that's the boffins at Hasbro to ponder over(if such a heavy retool were to ever be considered).

oh & if you read the additional line i added to my previous reply

so who says that they have to stick to the original design? they didn't with the Thrilling 30!

considering we already got a Doubledealer, I cannot see them doing something like that :BOT:

Big difference being they are probably going to make one more G1 and not IDW like his thrilling 30 in deluxe scale if he happens. and he is a very popular character nowadays thanks to MTMTE, whereas DD is dead ages ago :BOT:
