    Got my notice too. Poor guys are still working at 9pm. Now I just need IF Jetfire and some Magic Square arrive so I can ship my stack.

    Not very pleased with how Snapdragon's waist hinge seems so floppy on your copy. Anyone else have these in hand to compare?

    My two sets were delivered last week while I was away for work, but I'll be home tomorrow and can't wait to get my hands on these suckers! Expect some pics soon!

    Got mine today - love them all. Some of the best engineering in the line here. Highbrow might even be better than the FP one.

    Cerebros is my least favorite, only because he has a useless head as an alt mode. If someone made a compatible fort max I'd like him more.

    I think this Fortress in head mode looks fine on Hasbro's Titan Class. It's Headmasters anime proportioned.

    Was surprised Highbrow's head doesn't swivel. Thought these 2 sets fixed that.

    In a weird way, I kinda like that. I'd rather have Highbrow have the same articulation as his fellow autobot headmasters, makes them feel more cohesive as a group.

    The triple changers, being more complex, having a head swivel helps to set them apart more.

    Agreed. I wish they'd included an adapter to mount the head on it; when you look at it's footprint in comparison to the attachment point on Maximus it's obvious they were thinking about it....

    I am still hoping they are working on their own Fort Max body for it to connect to, but I think Hastak one scales correctly with their figures.

    I haven't seen a lot of the Headmasters series though.

    Seems like something that someone could render and sell on Shapeways easy enough...

    It should be something so simple one could mock it easier than 3d design and print it... I could design one and maybe will but not sure i will bother for that reason.

    I ordered the highbrow ape set a while ago off ebay, still hasn't turned up yet. Getting itchy about it but hopful it should arrive this week. Want to get to painting apeface...

    Might order the other set sometime soon.
