WOW! These are great!!!

Drone kit is sweet, I've already got a Tomahawk waiting!

Not-Trailbreaker is catching my eye too. Have to see when it's a little closer to being done though.

$59.99 is a little pricey for the Centurion set.

$59.99 is a little pricey for the Centurion set.

I've always preferred the US Cerebros to the Japanese version simply because I feel the Japanese one looks a little too derivative, but the US head just doesn't look right on THAT body. And doesn't $60 seem like quite a lot for two heads and a sword?

I think who ever is making this kit must have looked at the secondary prices that the real fort/grand max tiny headmaster goes for on ebay. they must have also seen the secondary market prices the Car robots brave maximus/godconvoy huge sword goes for on ebay in liscenses or repro versions.

Yes I also didn't like how the USA rounded off cartoon cerebros tiny headmaster/spike looked on that deluxe headmaster body/cerebros. the round spike headmaster head just doesn't match the aesthetics of the squared off boxy deluxe headmaster body/cerebros.

I have no interest in this set.

The upgrade sets look cool
Centurion is a lil out of my league as far as a need but looks good
Blood and Drone look cool but I got the Gyro and Blood1 sets
although the Drone upgrade may still get purchased

HR stated in their update that Centurion would be a limited release and because of that have a higher price point.

Yawn on the headmaster stuff.

But that Trailbreaker is SUPAH SWEET

I am glad I picked up that TRU Bludgeon/Whirl set a few years ago because that Blood set looks fantastic. Nice to see Trailbreaker getting some love, but I'm hoping the rumors of a Hasbro release for Trailbreaker and Hoist proves to be true so that will be affordable for my budget. I like the Centurion set as well, but alas I lack the figures it goes with. I actually love how that US head looks though.

So lemme get this straight. They're limiting their own release which in turn drives the price up to double what previous sets have been. You get the same robot mode that they've used for the FIFTH(!) time now. You get no guns or robot additions but one sword. Look, I want to support these guys because they have huge potential, I think. This is a frustratingly confusing move to make. Nevermind the fact that this is their third move that feels like they're trying to alienate their fan base. Gyro and Toxin, anyone? Come on guys, get it together.

FRAGNALH! I JUST GOT STRONGHOLD LAST WEEK!!!

I'm glad I didn't use any of the stickers from the set so I can resell it if I have to but this is closer to what I wanted anyway. Man, between this and the Shapeways stuff I ordered, I'm spending as much on a Classics Maximus as I did on RiD Brave Max!
