Don't expect anything the size of Fortress Maximus to come out in the near future either. He's huge because it was the trend at the time.

Toylines would show how MEATY AND POWERFUL they were by releasing INSANELY ENORMOUS PLAYSETS.

In fact, by the standards of the 80s super-playsets Fortress Maximus is PUNY.

The Masters of the Universe ETERNIA playset was so big it had A WORKING MONORAIL.

The biggest, though, was the USS Flagg. That is, the G.I. Joe aircraft carrier. This thing was beyond big. It was about 228cm long... or 2.28 metres. That's right -- it was a toy playset for action figures which was LONGER THAN A MAN IS TALL.

So yeah... compared to Transformers, Fortress Maximus is huge.

Compared to other action figure lines, he's a baby.)

(That's how it often is with Transformers.)
