Thing with Devastator is that he switched around his face from episode to episode, sometimes even from scene to scene - no matter which country you're in, it's hard to decide which one's "correct".
Fortress meanwhile kept his Headmasters-given face throughout the entirety of the series.

Now this route would be best. 2 heads are better than one or in this case, "3" heads.

Wouldn't that look a little strange, though? Takara Tomy's Fortress will most likely be gray and white like the original figure while Rebirth Cerebros was black and white with some gray. I'd just as well they left the Fortress head and ignore the Cerebros one.
I can't be the only one that wants a Marvel Comics Fortress Maximus head with the red lenses over his eyes, right?

I'm in. At least as an alternate to the Japanese Fortress-based head!

I think this is the only thing that would dissuade me from getting the SDCC version; if he came with both heads. Unlikely, but would still be rad as all dads.
They call me “Tanker Chungus”!

So here's the Japanese versions of "Cerebros" and "Spike" -- both are "Fortress" in Japan --
And more pix of the giant --

I wouldn't mind Fortress. Not maximus, just Fortress. Don't think that'll ever happen though.

That's the head being used for SDCC isn't it? It looks very similar to what hasbro is doing with cerebros for SDCC

It's a very pretty figure but I'm at a point where I look at my metroplex and notice how dusty he is. He's honestly a display piece. I've probably taken him down and "played" with him once this year and I know that's what will happen to Fort Max so I'm honestly contemplating not getting one.

God I wish it was easier to decide between versions of this guy. Metroplex was pretty easy.... Chome? y/n
I think takara's central grey tower, and the base "ramp" looks a lot better. and the sticker windows are a really nice plus.
But... SDCC's thighs look a lot better with some paint on them.
I'd argue the Hasbro retail version has the least going for it.... but at this point *it* has the exclusive titanmaster.

Yeah, what gives, Takara? Hasbro's already shown theirs for SDCC, so now you've got free reign to show off your own Master Sword. Let's see it already.

I am getting the retail US version because it'll have English phrases and the rebirth headmaster.
Looking to swap a takara Titan class fortress maximus head for a Hasbro US retail Titan fortress maximus head.
Would alternatively buy a Hasbro US retail fortress maximus head on its own if anyone had one for sale.
PM me.

Meh. All I need is to see a Master Sword from Takara to fully swing me over to their Fort Max.
