Fortress Maximus is a great piece of robot arse but he just doesn't do it for me. I paid $300 CAD for mine so I won't complain about how much I forked over. But I will complain about how much people are asking for it online (700-1000 US). This figure was made available in 1987 and for the screen time it got on the show Stateside it wasn't enough make this character a "Transformer God." Maybe watch the Japanese Headmaster episodes and you might get some satisfaction out of your toy. But here, especially in Canada, Fortress Maximus is not a topic of discussion when it comes to TF toys. Maybe just maybe we can hope for it to appear in a Transformer movie sequel! I know then Fortress Maximus can get all the hype it deserves online. But for now Fort Max gets the axe!

BLASPHAMY YOU NEVER INSULT THE MAXIMUS BLASPHAMAST. Fortress is limited
Fortress is huge
Fortress has multiple play points
Fortress has multiple arilery
Fortress IS A FREAKIN DOUBLE HEADMASTER
Fortress works with most figures
Fortress is a friggin sweet display peice
Fortress is MAXIMUS

A verbal assault and the wrong use of the word blasphemy. Next time use a dictionary. If you were really reading my last post (that's assuming you can), I'm not denying Fort Max is a great toy but his myth is that his character was popular. And it is his playabilty and sheer size that makes this toy expensive on the secondary market. :MAD:

I think he was joking.

There's no way someone could write that and mean it.

Fort Max is a grand figure, but I think I'll try and get the RiD version.
