    I'm a kid and I found it out. No offense, but he shouldn't be that hard to transform. Solve a 5x5 Rubik's Cube then go back to it

    Pretty sure it's Fort Max, as for hardest to TF, I've heard MP Megs takes that spot. If we get the fragility out of the way, then I think that'd belong to the BT/Alt Mustangs. Gawd, I want WJ...

    Biggest? No idea. Apparantly it's Fort Max.

    Hardest? All a matter of opinion. When it comes to me, I memorise each and every transformation first time. But out of all of my TF's, the hardest would be Alt Skids. Seriously. It's such a pain getting the chest and neck aligned the getting the head out of position.

    The bigger the toy, the easier it should be to transform. You don't want complexity when you're trying to get a bit to fold on a 10 pound toy.

    Very true. Fortress Maximus has a simple transformation, but he is pretty hard to do since his limbs are so big and heavy, especially those legs.

    Though I have to admit, I forgot about Don's Stronghold custom. I hear he's even in the IDW comics as Xantium or something...

    I owned a Fort Max once. Merely moving an arm or leg took effort thansk to the strong ratchet joints.

    I don't know about the drop tests, but no, it's not really a toy for kids. It's too heavy to really play with. Can someone get me a weight on the toy with full accessory load? Even as a base he had few real features.

    Not that I wouldn't object to owning the toy again in some form...

    In size along: definitely G1 FORTRESS MAXIMUS or Grand Maximus or Brave Maximus too.

    Difficulty I'd say MPP Prime, then Alt Mustang molds, MP Megatron too.

    When I was going to get one a few years back (but decided not to due to funds... I'd still be paying that thing off) the shipping weight was like 25 pounds.

    Biggest, fort max for sure, hardest to transform? Alts definitely, but I have to go with the megabolt megatron head attachment process on fortmax. Hasbro should seriously put directions online of that.

    I didn't say I couldn't transform i, just that I hadn't found a way to do it that didn't look like ass. His alt mode is pretty horrible, so he stays in bot mdoe most of the time.

    hardest to transform?

    Every Binaltech whose pain job you're afraid to chip would be the hardest TF's to transform.
