That Fort Max teaser image from way back when had treads on it, but this thing does not! That was what was missing!
Wonder whats up there, or more importantly: Is this a fake image or some badly incomplete photoshop? No way the treads would not be noticeable

They'd probably make him too top heavy, plus having giant hollow treads all out there like that, is just

1) it's fake, plain and simple
2) it got changed during design
3) that's a mock up and the treads haven't been finished yet

Right, because gen. metroplex wasn't a nightmare to pose/stand up; what with his piddly feet and non-existent heels. They'd need to do some serious reworking to get those kinks ironed out

Do you have Metroplex? Because he's really not that hard to get to stand up/pose and the only thing that really gets in the way of good posing are his weak knee ratchets.

I don't, but he had no heels, right? I've seen plenty of deluxe's fall over from having right angle heels, so, I figure that at his size he's bound to have more problems, I experienced something similar building one of my mechs

I mean you can't really have a foot without having a heel but I think he has some pretty big and solid feeties. They're about 3 inches long and about an inch and a half wide his main issue really isn't in the feet themselves but the hollow legs ( that needed to be hollow for the base mode) and his massive and heavy upper section. If he had a bit more weight lower down and much better ratchets I don't think he would have any problem at all standing in different poses.

Yeah, I'm sure the mostly solid arms don't help much either

Actually quite the contrary. Metroplex is almost impossible to tip over. He stands so well. The only thing is, like previously said, his knees were weak. But he is super stable.

And who could forget the treads not being there plus I highly doubt they will change their design at this point. Finally, it has on the pic that its first titan wars product which I would highly doubt it would be plus it was also changed to Titan's Return. So overall its most likely this is fake because it probably would and is.

While I do think it might be fake nowhere on it does it talk about the UK, it says US and global. Also it would be the first titan wars product if the release date of wave 1 is 3rd quarter of next year ( September) and the titans come out around July.

please highlight where this is written because i see this nowhere on the pic.

The arms are laid out in front of him and appear to be possibly split open. Plex's arms don't do that. The shape of his shoulders and forearms are completely different.
Let me show you. Firstly, the pictures is a bit squished so he should look a little tallker than this.
Look at the forearms on the picture below, especially the circle. Notice that there are also these lines pointing diagonally down from the circle on the forearms?
Now look at gen metroplex in the exact same area:
Those forearms are the exact same mold. With the same molded detail of the circle and diagonal lines. Then make your eyes go up to the shoulders and if you take into account that the picture is squished a bit, you will see it is the very same proportions as metroplex with very similar shoulders. The feet might be the same mold too, not sure. But yes, looking at them both, it is a reshell with the torso area reworked for transformation and to accomodate the headmaster.
Oh another thing guys, its written Titan Wars and not Titans Return, so this could be an early image that is just surfacing now.
