The new Hasbro titans Returns Fort Max? the SDCC version?
Or do I try and find an older city-former - Metroplex?
He wants big and highly playable with his other bots.

We have Trypticon... and now my son wants one of the even bigger guys.

What's going to be the biggest and best bot with a "reasonable" price tag?
I read a review over on Seibertron that said Fort Max felt lacking in pretty much all modes. Primarily since the original toy had a lot more play features in City mode. If you're looking specifically for playability, perhaps the reissue of the original might be a good option, or Metroplex, or the new Fort max, he might have been unnecessarily negative.
