  • The surprise-appearance citybot from TFcon USA 2014 has an unassuming name and some very derivative design work. And ratchet joints!

    Getting a birthday present "From: Grant and INFINITOR" would be pretty amazing, though.

    Thanks for the shout out my friend! I too have been considering doing some extra paint work on the face. It just needs a bit more to feel really good.

    I get a guilty pleasure out of watching you apply those stickers...

    • @scrapmetal37
      @scrapmetal37 10 лет назад

      Guilty pleasure does not exist. You like it or you don't.

      I dunno, those stickers were pretty kinky...

    I'm so glad you went back to doing daily reviews.

    @Levitz9 10 лет назад

    I dig the background music you've started using. It adds a bit of production value to these things, and it never gets particularly intrusive.

    If you're worried about scratching rub-on stickers just hit them up with a coat or two of clear paint. That or Future Finish floor polish.

    I've always liked Metroplex more....but that might just be because he was the first cityformer I had heard of

    Cerbros insertion action?Did you realize how weird that sounded before you said it?

    @Nicks-Toy-Pics 10 лет назад

    I never got around to getting the actual GIANT Fort Max. So this will be nice to have for a fraction of the price. Will be pre ordering the mini fort max soon!

    really wish they would have done a pretender shell for the head. Thats the one add on that was REALLY needed for this guy

    They missed a trick by not calling this 'Bruce'.

  • @thunderstudent
    @thunderstudent 10 лет назад +1

    We need this upscaled to G1 size with all the gimmicks restored. I want a giant, super poseable G1 Fort Max that's taller than the original and just as bulky.

    • @dominique4663
      @dominique4663 9 лет назад

      I hope that happens, but it seems like as time goes on products by hasbro (at least) are scaled down and made more and more light weight...not bulky and big.

    • @muisverriet
      @muisverriet 5 лет назад

      Well, we got one now

  • @OptimusPhillip
    @OptimusPhillip 9 лет назад

    They should've cast the forearm gun covers in solid blue rather than the clear blue of the cockpit and other parts: the Infinitor release had red on the cockpit and stuff because they needed the covers to be red.

  • @DragoonMS
    @DragoonMS Год назад

    Guessing that this weirdness is why Toyworld never bothered to do a Brave Maximus repaint of this mold?

  • @donaldjackson4456
    @donaldjackson4456 3 года назад

    I wished I could find this version. I have all the others including the Zeta version

  • @angryvikings
    @angryvikings 10 лет назад

    Hmm so he would make a good Headmaster-Micromaster (and Minicon) Base. Do you have any G1 Micromaster bases you could City him with?

  • @cranethevillain4441

    i like it

    He's a little small i was hoping for him to be a little bigger, just enough to stand side by side with scorponok

    If they made a Metroplex, would it be called Sherman?

    • @ManOutofTime913
      @ManOutofTime913 2 года назад +1

      Their version of MegaZarak would be called Lee, then?

    "Why is he the exclusive?"
    Why does Brave Maximus not get represented at all?

    • @cinanuva3915
      @cinanuva3915 8 лет назад +1

      Third parties are largely aimed at collectors of characters from G1 franchises. Any other continuities - RiD, Unicron Trilogy, Animated and even Beast Wars - are rarely if ever represented. I remember there were a few add-on kits for TFP toys, like Dreadwing and Megatron getting proper weapons, but again it's very rare.

  • @KamisamanoOtaku
    @KamisamanoOtaku 10 лет назад +1

    Does the color scheme remind anyone of RiD Fortress Maximus? Or am I just looking at an excuse to get a tiny RiD Scourge? ;)

    • @shawnrc
      @shawnrc 10 лет назад +1

      That's Brave Maximus, the third color variation of Fort Max (Grant is based off Grand Maximus).

    • @KamisamanoOtaku
      @KamisamanoOtaku 10 лет назад

      shawnrc My bad; I didn't remember Grand's color scheme correctly.

    What is the green tank thing at 13:18? Do you have a review for that yet?

  • @Citrakite
    @Citrakite 10 лет назад

    11:55 So they made a non stupid looking version of Brainstorm.

  • @toyprime6881
    @toyprime6881 10 лет назад

    someone should make a K.O. of this and make it about 30".

  • @imadude85
    @imadude85 8 лет назад

    Its robot mode actually looks better proportioned than G1 maximus. To me at least..

    @megamanpwn3dmario 10 лет назад

    toyworld seems to have good ideas, but flawed execution. they really should listen to more feedback from consumers.

    Nice!! Kinda want...
    No space for Real fort max...lol

  • @cranethevillain4441
    @cranethevillain4441 9 лет назад +1

    but its to small

    • @cinanuva3915
      @cinanuva3915 8 лет назад

      +Elijah Salinas
      Not necessarily. There are quite a few continuities - such as IDW - where Fort Max and Scorponok are normal-sized, so it works if that's what you're going for.

    • @cranethevillain4441
      @cranethevillain4441 8 лет назад

      +Kurona Chan more of the actual size... i want a giant and articulate fort max, not a tiny and articulate fort max because then i cant really display it with mp01 even if it were from a univers were it is normal sized

    • @cinanuva3915
      @cinanuva3915 8 лет назад

      Elijah Salinas
      True, but this clearly isn't intended to be for Masterpiece so it's not really fair to judge it on that basis. I don't even want to imagine what a Masterpiece Fort Max would cost...

    • @cranethevillain4441
      @cranethevillain4441 8 лет назад

      yea...

    • @herenow8561
      @herenow8561 8 лет назад

      It is incredibly small and I've struggled for a place for it but it finally found a home with the DX-9 and Iron Factory legends figures. City mode is still a disappointment but the robot mode looks great
