A recent posting on weibo has shown us final product images for the upcoming Prof. Heisenberg Solutions Set for Titans Return Fortress Maximus. The SS-01 Cleaver & Cannon set will come with a Master sword for Fort Max as well as his rifle. We’ve selected a few of the images from the post to include with this news story, but there are more to review inside the current discussion thread. This item is due for release this month.

Crap. I was hoping this got bumped because they were making a Grand Max gun…

Trying to figure out what to do with the sword in base mode, or how to stow it in bot mode. What am I missing?

not yet
well that sucks. Where's Dr. Wu or Shockwave Laboratory when you need them. Those Heisenberg kits aren't cheap!

My heisenberg set came in today and it was a massive pain getting the gun and sword to actually stay in the hands. The sword tabs in but as soon as you close the figures, or god forbid turn the hand at all, it just falls over. The gun has some weird tab at the bottom that make it impossible to tab into either hand so you just have to kind of fiddle with the fingers until the back of the guns rests on the hand just right so it wont fall off. Again, once its being held you'd better not ever touch the thing again or it just flops all over the place. So after some doing I have the sword in one hand and the gun in the other barely balanced and being held straight up in the air. Looks pretty stupid honestly…

Got any dual-wielding pics?
GAUGE
Yeah the DNA hands suck ass when holding the Heisenburg gun I gotta admit. but I'm not blaming DNA I'm blaming the Heisenburg Gun. that gun also has shitty 5mm pegs. they don't fit in any of the holes on Fort Max without being loose or floppy and just falling out the peg holes.
I also hate how the switch for the pegs does not lock into place when trying to peg the guns into things..
ChromeMagnus
I ended up getting the PH gun by itself as well as the PH gun and sword set. Now he can dual-wield guns and have a sword. Later I'll get the PH articulated hands & hip cannons set. Again I'm glad I paid only $39.99 for For Max himself because these 3P accessories add up. sheesh.

Is the sword a tight fit or is it loose like the gun?
Robots78
Everything is out except for DNA 03 (gun) and DNA 04 (legs/feet). No release dates for either (04 recently got pushed back for some design changes).
Since the PH sword is only available in a set with their gun, you could buy that and be all set, and then if the DNA gun strikes your fancy when it comes out you can upgrade to that.
ChromeMagnus
Hmm. It looks like I'll be going with PH/DNA for my For Max upgrade needs. Isn't the DNA DK-03 Weapons kit out yet? Are the rest of the PH & DNA stuff available now?
Robots78
Yeah the PE sword is pretty stylized and not very close to the G1 design.
I feel like the PH gun is kind of plain (not enough paint apps) and maybe a touch too small, while the PE gun has too many paint apps and looks too busy. The sculpt on PH is more G1.
I'm going to hold out for the DNA gun since it's configurable to be however you want it, you can have a smaller G1-accurate gun or add parts to make a huge gun almost as tall as Max is. Seems like it will be fun to play with.

But if you just want G1 accuracy, go for PH, I bet the DNA gun alone will cost more than the PH sword & gun set.
ChromeMagnus
Thanks guys. So when it comes to the gun and sword, prof Heisenberg and DNA have the best accuracy to the g1 toon/anime/toy?

I'm personally fine with the hips, but the upgrade gives him ratchets with more steps to make posing him easier. The slippers are in the same upgrade kit, they attach to the feet to give him n ankle tilt.

ChromeMagnus
is there a problem with the hips as is? What are these slippers?
Thundershot
It's not out yet but the hip ratchet upgrades and "slippers" from DNA…
I just want frickin' ramps, double barreled gun, and Cog, now!
ChromeMagnus
I just picked up Fort Max from Ollie's for the super low thanks to a tip on the coupons thread. Now I just need the G1/anime accurate weapons kit from Proff Heisenburg and the hands upgrade from DNA. Are there any other upgrades?
Thundershot
Crap I meant DNA.. I get so many upgrades for my figures I lose track of who makes what

PE released hands for Fortress Maximus? I know they released the Sword and Gun, but not hands. Unless you're referring to DNA Design's hands. DNA Design is also releasing feet and other add-ons for FM.
