First glimpse of Titan Wars Fort Max?

His knees seem to be bent

The question remains... Is Fortress Maximus going to take back the title of largest Transformer from Metroplex?

I think it will depend if you counted Metroplex's shoulder cannons.

It also depends how you measure "largest". Metroplex is certainly the tallest Transformer ever produced, but Fortress Maximus beats him in the weight department quite significantly. On the other hand that's far from a fair comparison: as a modern toy, Metroplex has significantly improved engineering which allows him to have the same sort of strength and sturdiness without the need for the sheer amount of plastic. On the third hand (shut up I have three hands) some fans do seem to value the actual amount of plastic they get per toy quite highly, so taking that into account Fortress Maximus still gets the title.

I say who cares, they're about the same.

I reckon there might be a voyager sized one as well. Maybe, Didnt the scan lines image have tank looking treads on it? From this preliminary, unconfirmed image... They appear to be missing.

On another forum I saw speculation that this is a limited first release exclusive "G1" version, more g1 by not having the tank treads. The wording, that it comes with an "exclusive sword and Titan master figure" and "Premium G1 deco and labels", and the limited quantities would support that theory.

I think TakaraTomy/Hasbro will definitely be measuring "largeness" by height seeing how TFA Lockdown has been recently re-released in voyager-sized packaging and price point.

It wasn't a voyager price, but it was more expensive than the other deluxes. He was shoved into a voyager sized box though, which kind of makes sense since he was meant to be a voyager height robot. Comparing him to current deluxe trends, he is a fair bit larger.

From a marketting POV, if he isn't taller than Metro, they could always go with
The Heaviest Generations toy ever!

Labelling it as the "biggest" would still be accurate if Fort Max is heavier or bulkier, which it looks to be, going by that small image (even when stretched out).
If it is recycling Metroplex parts, it is probably just the legs and arms... the abdomen part between the waist joint and arms looks significantly different to Metroplex and a lot bulkier, which could make it weigh more if it doesn't stand taller.
(but I would assume for marketing purposes to retailers and on the box to consumers, they will do something with it to make it record-breaking in some way, otherwise it will just be "another" big expensive plastic robot to retailers who don't care about names and characters)
