[gdmetro]

This turned out to be false information from the KOers so the figs will not be Koed at this time

OMG....


BOMBSHELL - and apparently at $300.

"An update regarding G1 KO REissues

Since everyone here asked for FORT MAX, we inquired and told them that people are really begging for FORT MAX.

Well u ask, you shall receive.

FORT MAX HAS BEEN MOVED AHEAD OF SCHEDULE. He will be made FIRST Ahead of both ABOMINUS and COMPUTRON (actually i think both abominus and max were in the first stages)

So, there will be all 3 versions of FORT MAX, the retail price will be around 300$ US.

Both Abominus and Computron will now be delayed until AFTER FORT MAX.

Stickers for all 3 have already been made.

FORT MAX ETA - 6 months from Today - August, or before August."


Dunno where to frantically get one or just cry because... how will this drop the price of g1s...

very interesting, I may have to overcome my hatred of KO's when these come out.

[Quickstrike]

The thought of paying $300 for a Knock-off toy hurts my brain. Even if it's a really big toy.

[gdmetro]

No offense to current g1 fort max owners.. but I'm hoping there is an inevitable slash in the current price of authentic g1 fort maxes so I can snag one for a substantially cheaper price than current market rated ones. The only problem is when does the drop- if at all and how much, occur... since if it happens after the KO is out... and lets say the KO is hard to distinguish then it will be too hard.

I'm also skeptical of the quality of the potential kos anyway... with such a large toy the stress tolerances on the plastic and weight.. would be problematic.

[Skullcruncher]

Wow all 3 versions... thats nuts...and bad news for everyone who wants to buy a g1 original (and the others) and all current owners too!

Personally I hope the quality is poor with obvious signs that they are KO's.

a few months back I saw a japanese Fort max for $12k HKD ($1500 HKD)

Seeing this makes my heart fly with happiness. I knew it was coming thanks to the guys in HK but never this soon.
THis will sell so well.

Count me in on 1 Fort max -tempted for brave max as well!

I can't overcome my hatred even for a cheap fort max.

But I do hope it brings the originals price down.

[5FDP]

Well, we all knew this was going to happen as it's been talked about for years. Still won't stop people from complaining.

$300 is actually quite reasonable for a toy of this size. If Hasbro was ever to reissue it (which they won't because it would fail drop-testing), you could expect the price to be a lot higher (which is another reason why they wouldn't).

If this is anything like the recent KO releases, the quality should be just fine.
