Sound Effects for Takara Tomy Transformers Legends LG-31 Fortress Maximus

Posted by william-james88 Sep 23, 2016 at 9:08am CDT 22,071 views
Fellow Seibertronian Logan79 is on fire today, finding Transformers news and sharing it with us. He has found this short video from "three star star" on youtube which shows us the sound effects made by Takara's Transformers Legends LG31 Fortress Maximus. The toy has far more sound effects than the standard Hasbro release with many Japanese lines along with "TransfOOOrm!" and, best of all, the Japanese theme song to the cartoon (starting at the 53 second mark). The toy is being released in Japan this week and should be shipping out to international customers soon, if not already.

Watch video

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

"Transform!"

"I'm Fortress"

"Master Sword!"

"Head On!"

"Here I come"

The rest I can't get

Yeah, maybe firewall against Decepticon hijackers. Or maybe Weirdwolf was overwhelmed by Fortress' power.

Seibertronian Cyberpath has alerted us to the presence of Takara Tomy's Transformers Legends Fortress Maximus, which has had its box art and manga revealed thanks to Loopaza Mega Store! The manga is a 6 page comic featuring Fortress as well as the full Fortress Maximus body, while the boxart shows off Fortress Maximus standing tall and ready to battle. You can check out the comic as well as the manga below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below.

Looks fun! Will someone please translate or at least provide a summary? It is cool to see Titan Metroplex in this story along with Fort Max. Bring on more Titans, I say!

Hmm...I guess that the Autobots don't have much of a clothing budget for T-Ai, unless they're just a bit too eager to see a nearly nude human female. :lol:

Basically, Fort Max decides to go out for a hamburger, he meets up with Metroplex who asks him to pick up a chicken sandwich while he's out, then at the end he realizes that he left his wallet on Cybertron.

Yep,......I can't read it either.

So what's with the beat up Brave Maximus early on? Seems a little out of place.

Ehe... that's one of the many retcons from... wait for it...

Kiss Play Position!

Long story short, lots of time/dimensions traveling, RiD Fortress Maximus was used in the past to protect something, and G1 Fortress Maximus is based on him. The End.

It's a reference to Kiss Players Position, in which Brave Maximus got sent back in time to crash-land on the Planet Master, where Fortress would see it crash and take inspiration from Brave Maximus to perfect his Headmaster technology and construct Battleship Maximus.

Hmmmm...and given that the Maximus battleship configuration and the Macross are probably loosely based on Whitebase, I believe that particular time travel trope is an Inverse-Macek-Loop.

BullsEye!

Kind of also a bit like how the Ark crashed into prehistoric Earth. Fortress reversed engineered the divine sourced technology into what would become planet Master's super science which G1 Optimus Prime didn't use back in the year 2000 up 'cause another retcon had Brave Max becoming the core of Autobot City aside from Metroplex being the mobile sentient portion of it. Just imagine if Optimus reversed engineered brave Max back then, then the war would have been over.

I'll be able to pay for him this Monday :x

Btw, sort of a reverse. In the original G1, Cerebros/Fortress is smaller than the regular Hm. Now, it's him who is taller (the head version compared to the deluxe Hms).

Fyi. Inspiration for Tai bikini armor archetype can be traced from these three especially the last one (US popular culture did,t add Jane Fonda ).

Leda

Princess Leia

Red Sonja

Except they do in bishoujo style

Wait, I've never seen this done before. Is this something intentional that Hasbro/TT forgot to tell us about or is it just something he figured out? There's no real need for this, but it's strange coincidence if it wasn't intended. When one of TT's designers does this it feels intentional.
