How much did their not-Insecticons go for? They weren't triple changers. How about their Headmasters?

Insecticons were $52 from BBTS. Headmasters are $69.

It's definitely on my list to buy (along with MP Soundblaster; March will be an expensive month) and I agree with those who say it's a bit high at $140. I am debating if I hold off for a while if the price will drop or rise...

Detachable chest armour? Battle damage? Taking parts-formers to a new level? :-?

From my friend in HK... He's been teasing me again...

Even for $150, I think the awesomeness (and relative comic-accuracy) of the robot mode may end up outweighing the crappy, crappy tank mode. I'm waiting for reviews, but I doubt I'll need them to be convinced.

I'm gonna end up with a reissue fort max as an accessory for this ...

Looks pretty damn sharp. Too bad for me all those extra parts will be wasted, as I plan on using this as nothing but the head for my Fortress Maximus. I will use the main bot for the head, the gun, and the tracks on Max's back. Everything else? Stays in the box.

Love it. I'm so glad that I preordered it months ago. I don't have the G1 Fort Max and I've never been interested in it so it's the head mode that I won't be using. Robot mode looks so outstanding that I don't really care that much about the tank mode.

You don't need a G1 FortMax when you could always recreate the Japanese anime scenes where he spends most of his time in his "Creepy-head-on-a-desk" mode.

Wow! He looks awesome, and given the pics, we must be getting close. It's a race! Does Warden or Diesel drop into my POL first? :DANCE:

I trying to avoid getting the reissue fort max accessory myself!

They both are very close to being received by BBTS, more excited for Warden though!

It boggles my mind that anyone would actually consider using both of these figures for that purpose alone.

I'm still quite convinced that I really want this figure. I think he'll look great next to the Function-X figures and while I'm happy to have him be my Fortress Maximus I wouldn't be opposed to a city-sized transtector for him.
