It was a long process to order. Servers were overloaded. It ended up costing $207 with shipping and tax. While I wish I could had gotten it as the same as the store release, I wanted this one because of the takara head in bot mode, and the metallic stickers/ sword. It still ends up being cheaper than the takara version and has a mix of both versions.

Has anybody seen any websites taking pre-orders on wave 2 deluxes? Looking to pre-order Chromedome , Highbrow , Mindwipe and Wolf Wire.
Thanks

Thanks for the pics, coldiron...What are your thoughts of the quality? I have read some people complaining about the QC of the Fort Max.

I had not transformed him but the initial quality as a robot goes I find him excellent. I have not had any loose joints or anything so far. My only gripe is the same for all Titan masters. Their flimsy neck joint. To get around this they make a different way for the larger head to connect to prevent breakage. Other than that, my only gripe is the lack of collapsing hands when going into head mode. You don't see it from the front but it is a design short coming. I am surprised but I like it better than metroplex. |

I am surprised but I like it better than metroplex. What do you like specifically over Metroplex? I currently have metroplex out from display and fiddle with it quite a bit. Enjoying it while waiting for my Takara Fort Max. My Metroplex is quite solid, though the hip and knee ratchets could be tighter. Wonder if they improved the structure sturdiness on Fort Max, when you seem to have both. |

I would say joints are on par with Metroplex. Strong enough to hold poses, and hold stuff, but you can not hold it horizontal by the legs without it dropping. I do think metroplex was a little more stable, but it is because there is more mass to FM. The thing I like about FM better is the amount of detail. I really liked Metro, but he was very plain paint wise. I have actually taken mine apart and been customizing him. I do not feel the need to customize FM. I think he also has a little bit better playability to mess with since he has the headmaster gimmick. The details are really what makes him stand out to me though.

I just got the Walgreens exclusive Brainstorm. It is an awesome figure and one of my favorites of Titans Return so far. I also got the four wave 2 deluxes coming in the mail.

I got it from robotkingdom.com. I usually have no luck finding the store exclusives in the store.

So far Titans Return has been really cool. What I would really like is for Toyworld to do a version of Scorponok that's the same size as Infinitor and I would be really happy lol.
