Awesome news, bringing Fort Max to the people!

Thanks everyone. Robotkingdom sounds good. Can't use my credit card atm (see Deluxe Venting thread (-_-)), but will put a preorder through ASAP. :)

No, this is an outrage! It is a travesty for an ignorant peasant to own a Fort Max! What has society come to? :mad:

:p

sweet news, been wanting one of these guys for a long time, just couldnt justify spending $1000+ on a figure (i dont care how rare/hard it is to get one) and bring on more reissues. :)

Be Nice if the Reissue looked slightly different, as people who already own one would like to buy it (kind of like Brave Max). Lets hope we see a Liokaiser reissue so i may be able to get a vintage one a bit cheaper :D

As for the "New grail" For US transformers , what comes to mind is :

We're one step closer to a reissue Scorponok. :eek:

Reissues usually are different in some way or another -- if nothing else, the copyright stampage will differ. :) I'd definitely get a reissue Lio Kaiser for sure! BREENG EET!! Ah, who am I kidding, I'd get a reissue of ANY G1 Transformer that I don't have or that needs "replacing" (like Monstructor... stupid GPS! I have _two_ Bristlebacks and they're both damaged from GPS! :rolleyes:)

I'd keep mine for the nostalgia --- these were my childhood toys after all. But I can't freaking play with them anymore, which frustrates me!! What I like to do is get a reissue to play with and "retire" the original G1 as a display piece. Monstructor's been put into "forced retirement," so I freakin' need a reissue!

The thing is... if TakaraTOMY reissues Dinoking, it'll have Dinoking's Pretender shells. Now, I don't mind if Hasbro takes the lazy option and just repaints them as Monster Pretenders, but keeps the Japanese shells -- I already have all the Monster Pretender shells, I need new robots! But I can understand that for anyone who doesn't already have Monstructor, this may be annoying to them. I can't envisage Hasbro taking the initiative to reissue the Monster Pretender shells themselves off their own bat -- not if "Apex Armour Optimus Prime" is any indication of how unwilling they are to modify a Japanese toy to "re-Hasbronise" it. :rolleyes:

We all vote with our wallets... if you want TakaraTOMY to do more reissues, then well... you know what to do! :D
