When online toystores started offering Pre-Orders on RiD Fortress Maximus (otherwise known as Brave Maximus from the japanese Car Robots line) they listed the item as coming in original japanese packaging. Now that Hasbro can no longer sell the Car Robots overstock (due to it failing the drop-test) the figure will most likely not be coming in it´s original japanese packaging (which is good news for those who already own a japanese Brave Max). This, of course, begs the question, "Well then, how WILL it be packaged?" It won´t be in the Car Robots box, and I´m assured it won´t be in ´reissue´ style packaging. Hasbro seems to have no less than FIVE concepts (or ´mock ups´ if you will) for its release. One of the better concepts is to release it in a variant of the "Heroes of Cybertron" style package.
