Been working on this for quite a while, but only recently found my way back to the Seibertron forums so I thought I'd share the progress I've been making on this. Here is what my MP Fortress Maximus will feature:

- Ball-jointed head
- Articulated hands, and new forearms that bend at the elbow & swivel
- Articulated (bendable) kneejoints
- LED's all over the place
- Extra ammunition that befits a Fortress/Battle Station
- Panel-lining and detailed painting all over the place
- Brand new overall paint job reminiscent of the Japanese "Headmaster" 'toon

Okay, now for the pics. Here's a look at the arms and the head:

Full body shot, with panel-lining:

Another in battle-station mode:

A shot of some of the extra detail I'm bringing out of this thing:

Finally, a sneak-peek at the extra weaponry that he'll have:

Aside from some more weaponry here and there, everything's done except for the LED work. Oh, and this guy is definitely coming to Botcon with me. :grin:

This looks like being very cool. Unfortunately only the first and last pic work!

Where did the hands come from or how are they made? They are really well articulated.

Can he spread his arms and legs? It'd be a real shame if he can't. Looking forward to seeing more pics...

I re-posted the pics, can you see them now? Legs will spread, still working on the shoulder areas. The arms are from a kit I got from Hobby Link Japan, can't remember the name of if offhand.
