    A Fort Max reissue would be nice. But how much are we talking, ball park figure wise? 2010 Predaking Reissue will be $180. I'd hate to know how much a Fort Max reissue would be.

    Yeah, yeah, big shiney robot. But what I'm really interested in that paragraph at the top of the page:

    "Get those salt-shakers ready folks, because we have a very interesting - and unusual - item for you today."

    Get those salt-shakers ready!?! Wtf does that mean?:confused: :lol

    Of course it wouldn't be the same. A vintage one would still be the Holy Grail for most people. A reissue would just give most of us a chance to own the figure at a decent price. I, personally, just want to have a 2-ft tall giant TF in my toy room.

    Definitely $250-$300, but it would be worth it to get a complete, un-yellowed, mint Fortress Maximus when a vintage one would run you at least $700-$800. Plus, when you consider the fact that you can preorder and not have your card charged until it ships, it gives you time to build up the cash.


    It's a clever way of saying, "Take this with a grain of salt. A very, very large grain of salt."

    It means that you need to take these news with a grain of salt because it may be just a rumor that this item is going to be a lucky draw item.

    If this leads to a Fortress Maximus reissue down the road, I will squeal like a 12-year-old girl at a Justin Bieber concert.

    Won't be long to see KOToys dipping big chunk of plastics to make KOLD F0RT MAX.

    Wheres the security guard holding a hk 91 rifle?
    I once owned a mint in box Fort Max. Luckily got me almost 2k on ebay when I really needed the $. So Transformers have helped me after all.

    I looked at it and it kinda just blended together into one massive hunk of gold plastic.

    Thats funny cause there isnt one piece of gold plastic on it.

    Also, this isnt one of KOtoys customs-the chrome is way too nice on it. Someone really took some time a patience to make it look this good. That being said, if it was ever auctioned off-it would most definately get lucky draw money(may even surpass some of the more expensive LD's out there). The thing looks too badass.
