Some of you may remember I used a Cybertron Metroplex for my previous Fort Max (here: http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=16363&highlight=fortress+maximus)
. While happy with the robot mode I wasn't too thrilled with the scale, and as for the alt mode...:mad:
So this version uses an Armada Megatron. I kept the headmaster gimmick. The tank barrel can be removed and used as his hand gun.
It still has all the minicon traps, which I think fits in with his comics role as a prison warden.
It's more in scale with voyagers/deluxes.
The only justification I have for using a WFC sticker is because it was a perfect fit over the Decepticon logo (and it looked cool)

don't tell anyone but the autobot symbol on his chest is just the decepticon symbol painted red... i didn't have any small enough stickers and figured at that scale no one would notice...

love the beautiful paint application, so smooth and consistent.

Great choice of colours, that blue really says "Wreckers/MtMtE Maximus" to me.
