    No, IIRC there was never 100% confirmation since all the promo pictures up to this point A) used G1 Fort Max as a stand in and B) omitted the huge sword. Granted, you could see the small sword, but that was not proof positive that the large sword was also included.

    I think - not 100% sure - that they're fake sockets for headphones and stuff, like the original one had. Probably not functional, just a part of the minicassette recorder detailing.

    Ar the early days, e-HOBBY already has said "with Master Sword".

    I was not aware of this. Even so, I think we can agree that seeing the actual mold test for the sword sitting there makes it a whole lot more real than any line of text on a website ever could.

    They should leave Fort Max in that color scheme. Minus the brown.

    Shattered Glass Fort Max!

    It really looks like Soundwave could be a functional music player of some kind...

    Either MP Ravage is seriously mistransformed, or his head is built upside down.

    Pretty much everything shown is great.

    I actually really like Fortress Maximus in those colors.

    Poor Red Alert.

    Some of the Microns in the multi-packs are in fact clear (unlike the solicits show).

    Takara's Generations Bruticus is by far the nicest looking FoC Bruticus.

    From the looks of it just mistransformed...it looks to have a twist behind the front legs thats just been put upside down..this would also put the sticky out flaps on the outside of the forelegs rather than the inside

    I too like these colors. Zarak Magnus.

    It does look nice, but the OCD in me states that I'd have to get three more of those head mountings to put on every other release of that mold that I'd eventually track down.
