Fort Max & G2 Bruticus confirmed; Powermaster Prime!

The modern comics universe has had such a different take on G1, one that's significantly represented by the Generations toys, so they share a forum. A modern take on a Real Cybertronian Hero. Currently starring Generations toys, IDW "The Transformers" comics, MTMTE, TF vs GI Joe, and Windblade. Oh wait, and now Skybound, wheee!

Fort Max & G2 Bruticus confirmed; Powermaster Prime!

Post by Onslaught Six »

Fort Max is confirmed as a retool of Metroplex, G2 Bruticus is a thing (and I am literally selling my FOC G2 Bruticus as we speak). Plus, the confirmed rumour of Leader Class Powermaster Prime! What we didn't know is, he's a retool of CW Ultra Magnus, very heavily--appears that the only original parts are the cab, guns and the robot feet, the rest looks entirely new. (This will be cool because now you can give matching guns to Magnus and Prime.) I'm weirdly super excited for it; he's gonna be my Ginrai!

Kinda wish they showed Metroplex rather than just artwork, but nice to have some confirmation about it at last. Got to say, I really like the G2 version of Bruticus. Powermaster Optimus looks really cool as well. Wouldn't have guessed it was a retool of Ultra Magnus. They've really been going all out with retools lately.

Also see they'll be having a fan vote for the next Titan Class figure with the choices being: Scorponok, Trypticon or Omega Supreme

And the winner of the Titan fan vote is... Trypticon.

I'm glad it's Trypticon simply because he's so unique compared to most other base-formers, and he's gonna look good next to my 'Plex but... LATE 2017? Jeebus.

Not unexpected. Fort Max is the biggun for 2016; the line's budget can't handle two Titans in a year. Plus, unlike the leading idiot rumour, I do not believe that any of the three were guaranteed to be made--so they need to start engineering Trypticon from scratch, which will take about 16-18 months.
