Transformers Legacy toyline

[lastmaximal]

I'm going to really enjoy getting that Excellion.

As far as Titans go, the major bases are covered. I'm glad they're continuing on, with Tidal Wave and all-new takes for Ark and Nemesis. But I wouldn't mind a better take on G1 Metroplex and Fortress Maximus. May sell off the originals if those new ones are solid.

Funny how "Force chip" is mistyped as "Force tip" since "chi" and "ti" use the same character in Japanese.

 

[LBD "Nytetrayn"]

I like the multiple places for his gun.

 

[unluckiness]

I really want Hot Shot but I'm not enthused about having to fix the yellow paint aps again. Prime your yellow Hasbro!

I can’t deny that a newer, better Titan Max would be nice to go along with Titan Scorpy/Black Zarak (I had to get both). However, the idea of more Marvel G1 inspired Max and Scorpy would be very awesome. Commander scale versions would be sweet. I’d even be ok if they worked in IDW max;s armoured tank mode in.

Those two being leaders in G1 made for some great stories. Scorpy blending with Zarak to become this tragic warrior, while Max ends up having to bond with Spike (who really doesn’t want to) was grear.

Plus, Fort Max vs Galvatron II at the end of the Marvel G1 one run was an awesome story.

I'd go for Fort Max and Scorponok at Leader or Commander scale. My main exposure to them as characters is the comics, where they're big dudes, but not nearly Titan-sized.

 

[unluckiness]

I’d only want them at Leader/Commander if they give them altmodes not compromised by a city mode. Scorponok’s almost there if they flatten the legs a little but Fort Max needs a complete redesign.

 

[GodSentinelOmega]

That’s why I think if they went for a fusion of IDW and G1 Max, it would solve that. Marvel G1 scale Max, with IDW Cybertronian assault vehicle mode.

Plus a rerelease of Cog and Fasttrack.
Also commander class Scorponok and Fort Max could still be headmasters with helmets like the TF leader class had.
As well as new weaponizers of Omega Spreem for Omega Supreme. Drill Bit for Megaloplex, Guardian X for Ark, Ramjet for Tidal Waaaaaaaave and something for Nemesis complete with the Heart of Cybertron and Covenant of Primus.

 

[Sabrblade]

Also commander class Scorponok and Fort Max could still be headmasters with helmets like the TF leader class had.

Scorponok can pull that off, but Fort Max might be a bit trickier if they'd want to keep the traditional look of his noggin.

 

[unluckiness]

No way. The helmets were ugly, restricted articulation and made the headmasters either have too small faces or make their dedicated headmasters have next to no helmet, compromising their cross compatibility anyway.

 

[G.B.Blackrock]

Sounds pretty accurate to G1 Scorponok to me....

 

[Steamed Hams]

It might work for IDW Fort Max.

But really he wasn't a headmaster.

On that note, it could also work for a bendy commander class G1 Metroplex who'd work great with mini-cons and micromasters like the original did.

 

[Haze Arquebus]

The only headmaster-adjacent gimmick an IDW Max needs is being able to scrunch heads into robo-gore in that chest compartment.

 

[GodSentinelOmega]

That wasn’t Max. It was the DJD guy who had the chest grinder.

 

[Xaaron]

Max had a thing, too, in MTMTE #5. He snapped off either Sonic or Boom's head using that glass canopy thing on his left pec.

 

[GodSentinelOmega]

Oh...

Brutal.

 

[Haze Arquebus]

Yeah, you can see the remnants of it in the picture Glitch posted.

 

[The Mighty Mollusk]

And that was after he ripped the other Con in half with his bare hands. Because horrible gory violence doesn't count if they're robots.

 

[Sabrblade]

Because horrible gory violence doesn't count if they're robots.

Saban and The CW beg to differ.

In reference to how quite a lot of Transformers: Prime's robot violence was censored when the first season of that show aired on Vortexx.
