The whole set looks really impressive, especially the fact that Blue Bolts was turned into a full-blown Weaponizer like Cog, Sixgun, Slammer, and Fasttrack were. That's awesome. And the Matrix Blade being an all-new mold when they could have easily retooled TR Fortress Maximus's Master Sword with a new handle, but didn't, is even better.

I'm still content with the original. The TR Fort Max figure is, from the neck down, really
baaaaaaad.
I have the Legends Grand Max version and got the DNA Design upgrade kits for it, and even with those kits giving him much better hands, a good gun, better hip ratchets, and superfluous helipad boots, the base figure itself is still one of the most worst Titan class toys I've ever had.
He can't even
hold his sword, even with the upgraded hands, because the sword's handle is too thin to fit securely into the gripping slots of his hands (both the official and upgraded ones). It takes wrapping the fully articulated fingers of the upgraded hands around the sword to keep it from just falling out of his grip, and even then the sword is just barely holding on.
The only good thing about the TR Fort Max is the new head figure, which is a pretty good large Deluxe/small Voyager toy. But it isn't enough to salvage the rest of the set.
