    I hope Takara also change the ball joint elbow of Cerebro/Fortress to a proper ratchet joint.

    Yes he does. I'm thinking more like Hasbro I.guess and forgot they really will go all out most likely. I think I'm.just hoping for a remolded chest/ab like area. I'm not hating the Hasbro version just not liking it to.its full potential u could say :)

    good question... it costs more than a deluxe?

    So it is either a voyager character, or a new mold deluxe?

    I'm on the fence over Fortress Maximus. I'd love to have something like Metroplex, but he's way too expensive. I can definitely swing Fort Max though. I'm going to wait for product pics before I make a decision on this.

    I will be ordering quite a few of those Legends, along with TAV Swipe and Bee. Just waiting on HLJ or AE to post them for preorder.

    Update, jokingly!

    Exact Translation:
    Yes, this is my own little thing concerning the round silhouette of LG30. Truly, I think it's either one set of Clones or a body for a lonely Titanmaster transtector.

    According to the retailer catalog pics in the opening post, the official announcement date for LG Fort Max is 11 May.

    Some retailers will put it up before then but the major stores like Amiami and HLJ will only put it up for order on 11 May.

    Not a question but a request if they're reading it. Thanks I'll keep checking on HLJ's website.

    With only two days left until the reveal of Fortress Maximus (Takara version), I would like to speculate (again) with the changes of this version:

    a) Cerebros (renamed to Fortress) repainted to grey & white
    b) Cerebros's face remolded to Headmasters cartoon version
    c) Both legs repainted with more grey
    d) Hidden cannons in the forearms
    e) Fortress Maximus' head with the horns repainted to dark blue
    f) Head on sound
    g) Little red sword connect to Fortress Maximus' head like Headmasters cartoon
    h) A gun for Cerebros
    i) A gun for Fortress Maximus that can connect with the starship mode

    There are my theories, I would like to read yours
