- Motto: "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes"
Probably one of the episodes that stands out the most to me is #13 -"Head On!! Fortress Maximus". This of course is the first time Fortress (Cerebros) uses the Master Sword to become the full city-sized robot. The idea of a monster plant in San Francisco was kind of neat also (The last episode which took place partly in San Francisco was - "The Secret of Omega Supreme", my favorite of the original series).
This episode features several nice, but all to quick appearances by several combiner teams. Of course, lets no forget the ending, which sets up Scorponok's big reveal which would come in the next two episodes (14 & 15).
The Fortress Maximus transformation sequence is really a thing of beauty, except for his final stance, which I always though looked a bit effeminate for some reason, not the stance I would give a gigantic robot, but I can look past it seeing as how Fort Max and really the whole 1987 toy line was butchered for the sake of a half-assed 3 part finale in North America.
Some other episodes I really enjoyed:
#3"Birth of the Dream Double Convoy"
#8"Terror! The Six Shadows"
#24"Ultra Magnus Dies!!" &
#35"The Final Showdown on Earth (Part Two)"
Bucket/Want List: Botcon 2016 Customization Class Ratchet (G2 Deco), or Customization Class Ratchet (Marvel Comics Deco) **would also be willing to pay for an Unpainted Botcon 2016 Ratchet, TT Legends Fortress Head (only) with working Electronics
Wish List of Modern Combiners: Road Caesar, Monstructor & Dinoking (proper size to fiction), Landcross, Guard City, Battle Gaia, & G2 Defensor. Wish List of Titans:Metrotitan,Majin Zarak
