Appears so. Hasn't there been a rumor flying around about a new Fort Max release?

Indeed there is. It was mentioned a couple weeks back, actually. A spokesperson for TakaraTomy said they were looking into a possible reissue.

He certainly looks like Ironhide, but....

My Japanese is probably getting rusty, but why does it say, "Nagoya Prime?"

Because that's the name, Nagoya Prime. Can't make heads or tails of the kanji however, but he is indeed a Commander (Shireikan). After some wiki'ing (which you all should do more often), it seems he's the mascot of the city of Nogaya, Aichi Prefecture, Japan.

or is it?

The Arms Micron version uses the Deluxe mold, not the Voyager one.

Added some additional character cards.

Those are interesting and seem to be mostly new characters. Tiger stripe Ratchet, whatever he is, looks pretty striking. Neat stuff. I wonder what the deal is with those. New manga maybe?

Like I said before, mascots of certain Japanese cities, according to TFWiki. The ones added are:

- Akiba Prime (for Akihabara, often shortened to Akiba)
- Kawasaki Prime (for Kawasaki, 3 different towns, most likely one being Kawasaki, Kanawaga Prefecture)
- Tachikawa (for Tachikawa)
- Umeda Prime (for Umeda)

Still love the alphabet.

That looks like a very angry yellow Ratchet with a tail.

Fort Max reissue=pure Win
