Not just that, but maybe sticky the Fortress Maximus gallery for a bit? Only fitting, especially considering the possibility of e-Hobby releasing Grand (once they find the mold for the Pretender shell that is)
Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for Arms Microns, especially Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Preparing to move to the US!

Huge Transformers News....?

Hmmm large sum of money on an obselete giant brick or awesome 3rd party homage, now thats a difficult decision! :CON:
For that price they need to articulated him into some sort of super Transformer!

Regarding the Masterpiece Evil Cassettes, do we know their sizing yet? Could I be right in saying they will be around the same size as the KO Oversized Cassettes that turn up every now and then?

Keen to keep picking up more Generations figures when ever we finally get them over here in the United Kingdom, Foc and Prime too! :P

Even though the shipping costs (and eventual customs costs) to Europe are through the roof, Encore FM is pre-ordered!!! Still going to end up cheaper for me than Brave Maximus was :D

Considering MP Soundwave was shown at a show holding a regular G1 mini-casette, I'm guessing the MP-15 cassettes will actually be around that size, so... pretty small (but much more intricate!).
I'm so meta, even this acronym...

This is the one Transformer I would have never guessed they'd reissue! Great news. I have no regrets about buying the original 2 years back but I will def. buy this one too.

Here's hoping they also reissue Grand Max! I really hope this is not some fake April fools joke. I would be Max'd out!

Expect ebay to have a crash in the price for Fort Max :lol:

Anyway, this is a good thing for collectors who have been waiting all these years :DANCE: Already own the USA version which, sadly lacks his "Master swords", so all I need are the reproduction swords to make him complete.

I hope to be able to score the MP cassettes, and no, the price justifies the intricate engineering that went into it. :x

To quote a line in a classic anime film " If there is a god, there must be a devil.........if there is a chojin........there must be an evil king/kyo....."

So, if Fortmax is coming, then SCORPONOK could be following next? :BOWDOWN:

I'd donate mine if they want to reverse engineer it and can assure me that they would be able to get it back to me in one piece.

No. I've wanted this since I was three years old.

This. He's within reach, but doesn't make me want him any less.

Preordered him and the MP-15 set. Good LORD this is a glorious day! :D
Not caring about scale since 1984. Just like Hasbro.

Oooh I must have missed that one, but interesting to know. Would you happen to have a size comparison of Soundwave against someone we all know and own?

If the MP Cassettes are coming out at the same size as the original G1 Cassettes, they make for a very small Masterpiece again!

Maybe its just me, but I kinda liked Masterpiece when they where bigger and bolder than everything else, not just a highly detailed Voyager! :???:
