>Weird that he got add on ramps, mini soundwave lamps and led eyes and gun, but no 3p hips to replace the undersized ones.I don't usually care about 3p add-ons but I would have been interested in those, shame.
>>10196290>>10196314>>10196321As someone who owns the Encore G1 Fort Max, I can say that I never cared about the Titans Return one even if the robot mode looks nice enough. For starters, I didn't like the Metroplex mold all that much either, the city mode didn't look good to me with that ramp that doesn't reach the ground, visible hands and no hint of actual buildings like the G1 toy to keep the illusion of it being some kind of city. But repurposing it as Fort Max made it even worse, because they left out almost all the gimmicks that made the original toy interesting. The new city mode is absolutely terrible compared to the original, and the worst offender is the lack of the deployable waist and arms canons in robot mode. I can understand the arm ones because they just used the Metroplex mold, but the giant waist canons are one of the most memorable things about Fort Max and there was no reason to not include them other than being cheap.
