    dunno, that's outside of my AoE lol

    but a month for a campaign is fairly common. so we should have 2 more surges of backers, assuming peeps are holding out for pay checks before contributing

    Honestly Supermax might be my favorite 3P name after Ditka.

    Fort Max is a hair smaller than Overlord in the comic, though. Just sayin... look at the shots of them together in Under Cold Blue Stars.

    NOW, all that said, I'd still rather have him be Carnie's size for the nemeses-on-the-shelf factor.

    Realized just now its probably not front paged due to PSX's involvement. Since PSX is a store and since most of the site sponsors are stores TFW might not want to incur the wrath of said sponsors by giving PSX free advertisement? Just my interpretation with my tin foil hat on since TFW has front paged MFT prototype pics and hasbro sightings at retail.
    Hopefully after this post a mod front pages this to make me look crazy.
    Finally a Magnus! Guess I will be waiting a while longer to finish my IDW collection.
    Dai, Saber, and hopefully a Delta and Ultra Magnus!

    My thoughts exactly. It's a PSX exclusive,and they don't sponsor TFW. You don't bite the hand that feeds you.

    Would be nice if it was front page, but the best way to go about it is if people shared the news... Spread the word. :)

    Sadly, I don't know any colleagues, friends, or neighbours that also collect Transformers... but I like being in a 'niche'.

    Are there any PE Warden threads we can mention this on?

    I would back this project if the final colors would be closer to this, which is not unlikely given MMC's history of changing colors and design of a character (which I have been a 'victim' of many a time).

    I mentioned it in my post here...

    Yes, we should post the comparison pic on MMC and PSX Facebook.

    I think it's already been suggested that might not be happen because PSX is not a TFW2005 sponsor.

    Personally I don't mind as I want Supermax to get enough supporters to be built but businesses have to honour agreements etc.

    I know. But I figured tagging the big guy might get us some insight.

    Put in my order finally. Very excited for this bad boy. I have warden with the upgrade kit, but like everyone else is saying this guy blows him out of the water.
