    How tall is Fort Max supposed to be? judging by the mini car in the photos, it seems like he could be hovering around the same height as that KO mini fort max toy thats been floating around the past few years.

    It looks like he's going to be a build-a-figure, with a different play feature for each build-a-part. Charger and/or launcher probably implies that he can launch the minibots hot-wheels style.

    I am intrigued and look forward to further developments.

    I am pretty sure it is a Partsformer just God bomber.
    I think What want to know is: DO FORTMAX comes with all the accessories?
    1. MAster Blade
    2. 2 guns
    3. The 2 mini robot (not the the powerglide or charger.
    4. (It will not included Grand max.)
    5. Will it have a RID/Car Robot Repaint!

    5. I think Scorpio will be the next .(I am only interested with Black Zarak

    No, "Charger" is just the Japanese name for Windcharger, as the "launcher" bit just describes what that base-part is (an aircraft carrier-style catapult launcher for aircraft). I'd be very surprised if they were to contain anything as involved as a launching mechanism - they ARE just cheap little model kits and gum, after all! They're nice for what they are, but Kabaya kits are very simple little things, and often total partsformers, which I don't think a lot of folk understand.

    The accessories besides the 2 guns are not in the pictures, so I am guessing they are not included. It is a Candy Toy after all; less than $5 per box, you are not getting a Minibot, a part of Fortress Maximus, and a part of Cog in a single box; that is way too much. I will jump for joy if Fortress comes with a transformable Headmaster Fortress.

    Also, I doubt we will get a repaint of a non-painted figure... what is the point?

    I guess Fortress Maximus will be the size of a Deluxe, just much bulkier. It will super cool if it is the size Candy Toy Super Dekaranger Robo.

    I own waves 2 3 4 and GaiaCross. I love Kabaya kits. 1, 5 and Fortress Minimus will be mine. I'll even do a comparison with my KO MiniMax I have once I get him.

    Size wise, i'm thinking that Fortress Maximus will probably be in line with Kabaya Victory Saber. :D

    Well, it'd be nice, but if not, I guess you can still use the tried and true method of "your finger" as a launching mechanism.

    I figured maybe they'd go farther with the kabaya kits given the increased size, but yeah, I guess what I said does seem a bit much.

    Can you tell who that grey tf is supposed to be in what looks to be the arm model? I'm wondering how they'll do the head, and maybe that's supposed to be cerebros.

    Thanks for doing that! I was worried since I missed out on preordering them before, so I've got them now.

    So now I've got like, three packages coming from you this month. It's gonna be fun.
