October Acquisitions.

Okay.. so its custom resin set for the maximus. Just had to try and find out what they were.

Nice molds. Fits the Fortress Maximus perfectly.

The items are heavy. Its made complete out of resin. The roller figure even got wheels that rolls instead of a set piece.

Overall, very happy with it. From the look, its the same as the original items.

Just heavier.

Radar, easily lost item looks perfect and hardier than original.

Comes with Grand max pretender sword and gun. Nice touch. For 69.99 shipped, its not a bad substitute to the original.

I picked up a similar set for Brave Max on ebay (when the AUD was doing much better).

The arm on Gasket/Grommet(?) broke on mine though (arm joint too tight) and the large gun is a bit loose in Brave Max's fist. Still looks ok for display pieces though.

But does it ( big guns) stick well in the peg holes on the sides of the main Tower in Battlestation mode? What's the material like?

This morning I picked up from the Post Office the latest OTFC Magazine, a replacement Classics Megatron, and my City Commander set.

Now I just have to find my Classics Ultra Magnus...

Are you going to try the armour first on a Prime?

What accident led to a "replacement" Classic Megatron?

I know where my Henkei Prime and my Nemesis Prime are so they might try it on first

I sold my Classic Megatron to STL then decided I wanted it back when I realised I had every 2006/07 Classics toy except that one.

Not quite. Lost the auction but the winner then quit Ebay and I got a second chance offer. Thanks for the tip.

His colours (in robot mode) aren't actually that bad, and the toy really grew on me. Even though I have the Henkei version now, I still think the Hasbro version is worth keeping.
