Toy World has updated with scans of next months issue of Figure King. While most of the Transformers related items shown are of those we’ve seen before, there are a pair of images of Encore Fortress Maximus. The two images may serve as an indicator that he will be coming with the God sword and instead of tampographs, we will have to sticker up the big guy.
Also shown are: Transformers Prime Arms Micron AM-33 Final Battle Megatron, AM-34 Jet Vehicon General, Transformers Generations TG-08 through TG-12, Masterpiece MP-15 Ravage and Rumble, Encore 23 Fortress Maximus. Super GTR GT-01 Optimus Prime, GT-02 Star Saber, and GT Fortress Maximus and

GT Fort Max ???
i thought they were already pushing it with Star Saber
NemiMonkey
Well more incentive for me to get him then.
Meant JVG as in Jet Vehicon General. No idea how I manged a t instead of a j.

I would agree that majority of the Encore Fort Max won't be receiving the abuse their 80's ancestors suffered by the hands of those lucky young ones back in the day

Well too be fair I don't think these reissue Fort Max' are going to have to put up with as much abuse as the originals did. I can't see myself re-enacting battles (unfortunately) with cars driving up and down and robots fighting each other.
It's gonna probably just sit in one form or another maybe occasionally with a spychanger rolling down the ramps.
I would have prefered a well painted and tampographed item to one I have to put the stickers on though. I'm never 100% happy with them
Type-R
The GT series TFs will come with an out of scale Microman figure of their respective race queens. It's part of the reason why they're so expensive.
T-Logicon
I like those gt TFs. I wonder if they are going to come with a girl, ala BTasterisk, or Kissplay alt/BT.
Plus they are cute – esp the green one. I think she likes me….
Optimus Prime
That Jet Vehicon General could make for an awesome Go-Bots Tux custom…
Wu Jen
Tell that to my son's MetroPlex.

I would be tempted to suggest to people to buy an Arms Micron for Megatron to sit on his vehicle mode even if he's not supposed to use it in robot mode.
I wonder if Takara will ever do something to offer to retailers or the public some replacement crystals for all the times they provided the wrong one (especially the previous Crocodile Micron).
It's something I'd like to ask them but they no longer answer English e-mail and I'm not sure they'd answer English tweets either.
OMEGAPRIME1983
What's tvg??
Thundershot
In the end, this is all that really matters…

Encore Fort Max – my body is ready
PoweredConvoy
All information supports the fact that he does come with two.

Tampographs or not that Fortress Maximus is going to be awesome.

Really want to see protos of the actual Alternity GT-R Fort Max figure and his Racing Queen instead of the same promo art over and over again (I do find the colors and designs more appealing than red Convoy and blue Star Saber, Racing Queens included).
Darkest Megatron is still a huge disappointment. I'd rather just grab the third party add-on with the Prime arm and Dark Star Saber and put that on a stock RiD Megatron. Vehicon General I'll probably grab three of those to represent Starscream's mini brigade.
NemiMonkey
Still have no idea whether TVG comes with two microns or not. In the bot mode pics it sort of looks like there's another Igu on the wing, but can't say for sure since the pic is too small.
I was sort of meh towards the MP cassettes, but I have to say they are really starting to look pretty darn good. Okay ravage has some odditites with the cassette bits on his back legs, but that's forgivable considering how the rest of him looks. Now hopefully Takara makes Ratbat, Overkill and Slugfest.
Bossguy
They're the exact same weapons as we got. I want that kickback…
megatroptimus
Air Raid and Sideswipe come with new weapons? Are they AM Microns?
Bossguy
Well, that vehicon is definitely white.
