Takara-Tomy has just updated their website with two Whopper sized reveals in the Transformers Legends EX line! First up is Great Shot! A retool of the Titans Return Sixshot mold pretender shell. Great Shot is looking spectacularly faithful to his Victory counterpart, complete with a remolded beast head. The other reveal is none other than Grand Maximus himself! Obviously, he’s a reuse of the Fortress Maximus mold. Grand Maximus will also come with a green Prime Master suit which will be unlocked when Grand Maximus reaches 3,000 preorders.
Grand Maximus will run you 25,000 yen while Great Shot will run 8,500 yen. Both figures are scheduled for a March 2018 release.
Update: High Quality images added
Update 2: Individual product photos added!

D@mn…
Seeing that the thread got bumped, I thought we're getting another chance at LG-EX Grand Maximus.

I got a Greatshot still MISB and I'm contemplating whether to open and keep it or move it on.

Part of me wants to get him, while the other part is hoping for a better Sixshot mold to be made in the next couple of years for a new Greatshot.

TakaraTomy Transformers Legends LG-EX GREATSHOT
this legit?
Fenrys
hell im currently looking to offload a clonedroid greatshot to get the takara one, so i'd lean towards takara
Bob Schoonover
I'd lean TT but it depends on a number of things. MMC's is far too large for a WFC-based collection, but works well w/other MMC and Planet X figures. It depends a bit on what you're looking for
IceConvoy
They’re both good figures. I do prefer the Takara-Tomy figure though. It’s anime accurate and has a much cleaner design. It also has better proportions in robot mode and is a lot more fun to transform.

For those who have both figures which would you recommend Takara/Tomy LG-EX Greatshot or MMC Grandus Hexatron?

Hello who is the second guy from the left in the attached picture?
DoubleClouder
Mine does the same thing
Mr H
Just got him delivered today from TFSource, really don't know why I waited so long to get a citybot. Question about the main head, is his forehead supposed to click above the face after transformation from bot mode or does it just stay in place. Mine is a little loose and moves down with the slightest touch.

£119.99 on kapow toys’ Black Friday sale today. I didnt intend to buy Grand Maximus when he was announced but seeing him for that price, I just had to cave in. I don’t have Fortress Maximus or Metroplex so he will be a new mold for me.
Fenrys
Agreed, think I’ll be sticking with my clonedroid great shot
Stepper
This MMC Greatshot looks good and the size is huge compare to LG Greatshot
Fenrys
Robot mode is just fine I’ve got the clonedroid so I was mainly curious about how they sized to each other
IceConvoy
Here’s a simple side by side comparison for now. I need to mess with the MMC figure to remember how to transform him if you want any alt mode pics.
