These designers totally get us. Some of us wanted a Titan Tidal Wave. Some of us wanted the Megatron combination. They knew we were going to complain no matter which option they picked.
They found a third option none of us thought of. I can't get over it.
...but several of us thought of it?
Maybe not the exact method of implementation, but I know I had an idea for smaller parts to replicate the combination, and I'm sure I've seen others mention it.
As for Fort Max and Metroplex, I think the latter is the superior of the two in alt modes. Sucks he only has the one gun, but better than no guns, I guess. But at least, as annoyingly sprawling as his city mode is -- I mean, I get it, and I'm glad it can be, but some way to condense it a bit like G1 would have been nice as well -- at least there's places to go in and around it, rather than Fort Max, which is chiefly just "on." Even the "entrance" ramp feels kinda useless, with how steep it drops off and goes nowhere.
Heck, I think even that G1 Fort Max playground they had at a convention years ago has more of an interior to play around in than TR Fort Max.
I also wish he didn't look so annoyingly incomplete in every single mode if his head isn't attached. It almost defeats the purpose of him being a Headmaster -- er, Titan Master. Sure, Cerebros could integrate into G1 Fort Max's city and base modes, but not as the entire top of the tower, and there was a flap to close up where he'd be when he wasn't there.
Do we know anything about the drop tests that G1/Brave Max failed to prevent his rerelease over here? Like, specifically, what the point(s) of failure was/were?
