Titan Returns Fortress Maximus

 

Thank you!

What are our thoughts on how it turned out versus the included sticker set?

 

I have bias for Reprolabels so I love their set. Better quality, too.

However, mentally I felt the need to put on the included TT set so I put those on first and then the Reprolabels. Not that much overlap.

Keep in mind though since you can't (without cutting open the calves) open the calves, you can't use a some of the Reprolabels for the inside.

 

Huh? I was able to open the calves on mine out of the box without having to cut anything. Do you mean cutting stickers that go across the seam lines where they open?

 

Sounds like you could be one of the few lucky LG Max buyers, most found their copies' lower legs solidly glued shut and had to cut, work, or otherwise overcome the factory gluing to get 'em open.

 

For the Japanese LG one? See this link for an example. TakaraTomy LG-31 Fortress Maximus

I guess you were the lucky ones like below

 

I developed a combined base model with Metroplex that works very well. Lots of places to hang out for those little Titan Masters! Also I like how I can finally put those unused CW hands and feet to good use. Titan Masters balance on them very well.

 

I just found out for myself that Fortress Maximus can hold Classics Megatron in gun mode.

Did anyone else know?

 

Pics or it didn't happen.

 

Neat. Although I forgot that hegemon wasn’t classics megatron lol.

 

Seeking recommendations on quality labels for TR Fort Max. Is Toyhax the only market in town? Their labels are $45 for the set. I’m just not sure that’s worth the price. They were half that a couple weeks ago. Any suggestions or insights would be appreciated. Thanks!

 

Should've bought them a couple of weeks ago with the 50% off sale. I go through and constantly add things to the cart that I want and wait for a big sale to check out. I had over $100 worth of stuff in there, but only paid a smidge over $50.

 

The toyhax sticker set for Maxx is an absolute must have if you ask me.

 

i tried but site wouldn’t let me process an order. Bummed.

 

Keep checking Toyhax constantly. They tend to have sales quite often lately.

 

Thanks. I’m trying to send them a message too but keep getting an error when I try to submit.

 

Try again in an hour.
By checking I mean just check their website for price of the item once a day or so. You eventually see the price slashed again.

 

It’s odd... Their frequent sales have essentially defined the price for their sticker sets.

For instance, I *know* they’re going to cut the price on the Trypticon set, so why would I pay $45 for it? And it’s not like they’re going to run out of stock, as happens with actual figures if you wait too long for a sale. They take orders, print, and sell.

So the end result is me just waiting til their next inevitable sale. I want to call them and say, “Dude ... you can either sell it to me for $28 now, or in two weeks. Can we skip the Kabuki dance, and just make a deal now while I’m in the mood to pimp my Trypticon?”

Oh well.
