I didn't pre-order this because I didn't expect the estimated release date to be remotely correct. When I decided to check a few days after he was supposed to come out, I saw people were doing reviews, places were shipping, and everywhere was more or less sold out. Less than six hours later Robotkingdom listed him as in stock again, so I placed an order, it arrived last night, and while I haven't removed him from the clear plastic shell yet, I have to say he looks sweet. I was doubtful of the price because I'd kept hearing "About the size of a DVD", but the box was huge compared to what I expected, and seeing everything he comes with, well, I'm very happy, and anticipating a lot of fun.

I have only heard positives so far about this figure.

That's because there's no downsides.

This guy and Swoop have certainly started the year off right.

I've had mine for about 3 days now and I agree. Sure, the alt mode is basically a brick on wheels, but everything else screams "quality". So much articulation and detail!

I prefer these fan alt modes to the official one...

So all these "alt modes" are from someone's creativity, they're not official, right?

That's right, all fan made. Just the head and tank modes are official.

This is making me want to buy another Warden. I do want 1 for Max's head, but the other modes look so damn good, I might just double dip, if the figure is available in 2 weeks when I get my tax refund...

These fan modes are really cool.

I get mine Monday. Man, can't wait!

I'm really worried that when my PoL arrives next week Warden will make me want Fort Max more than ever, and the quoted post bellow from tfw didn't help :BANG_HEAD:

Thought I'd share the pain :twisted:

The gun looks incredible with the G1 toy! So much detail!

I love the beautifully painted red sniper scope lens and the reverse side with the green targeting system with the "plus" symbol. Intentional or not, I like that there's a "plus" symbol somewhere on the figure as a nod to the Marvel Comic likeness.

I almost need to buy a second one to go with my G1 Fortress Maximus...but the figure is honestly too good to leave in head mode.

I really dig that they found a place to store the treads...a place for everything!

My Fortress Maximus is completely unstickered...the only toy left from my childhood.

Finally some good shots of Warden connected to Max. I already have Max's original gun, and I got Grand Max's Grand Sword from Japan for him, so both his hands are full. Not sure what I'm gonna do with 1 of the guns...
