Hasbro is now bringing one out as an individual item) or Slingshot(Quickslinger) or Breakdown(Brake Neck) or even a G1 Space Shuttle Blast Off(which I believe is happening) if it wasn't for Takara
No one hates Takara. All we are saying is you shouldnt expect miracles since they didnt change anything to the Hasbro Fort Max mold. They are the ones who designed this retool anyways.
Also Slingshot and Wildrider were Hasbro designs and Hasbro Wildrider (you wrote Breakdown) even came out before Takara's. Also, Takara's shuttle Blastoff is not impressive in the least but at least it isnt lazy.

I believe what our friend Hellscream is saying that Hasbro didn't think about making that an official mode.
There's a lot of "unofficial" modes out there for Transformers. That's part of the fun, discovering these things.But I guess there are some people who need instructions for everything in life.
You making fun of my honeymoon night?
Anyways, about this fort Max fan mode, I see it no different than the gun fan mode on Megatron last year. Its just us grasping for something that isnt there and that doesnt look that great when you think about it.
What I disliked about this new Fort Max was not just that it abandoned its city mode but that it didnt have much of a transformation and looked lazy with much reduced playability from the G1 version. And that it was just a retool. And this doesnt change anything. We just flipped his legs in the air to give the illusion that he looks like his G1 self (which he doesnt) when looking at him dead on. But its not like we can use them as towers when we play, since its not intended. Not like this:

Thats what I recomend anyone disatisfied with this toy.
