I've just been cleaning my detolf and my one is currently on the floor, waiting to go back to his shelf with the other headmasters...
I use mine to show off my utter lack of any sense of scale. But it works great for mix and matches on the Monster Shelf. The fists ARE held in by rings if plastic that can show stress marks (a hair dryer can help there) and it is possible to snap the little thin pegs on the arm ramps when first inserting them (fixed easily with a dab of super-glue, did not impact the joint), it's not super-durable, but no, it's not fragile either.
My only Kabaya breakage was one of WFC Prime's knees. That one has some faulty tolerances for sure. My Fort Max is fine.

Its two on one with two spectators waiting to see who the winner is and thinking about engaging in battle with said winner!
Did you wash Fort Max, I thought he be taller?
or did the wash cause him to shink? 
It's Marvel Fort Max, he's as tall as the artist felt like drawing him today.
But still up at TFSource, BBTS, and other retailers.
I really want Cerebros, but I don't need the rest since I imported the Japanese version with the sword and everything. Too bad there's no way to get him seperate(since I doublt anyone would ever want to sell him separate and I don't see Hasbro doing it either, like getting Mainframe separate from the Ark)
To be fair, Pulse probably only had a small limited stock compared to the other retailers.
To be fair, the last time Fortress Maximus has been available was back in 2017 (assuming stock carried into from 2016). In the years since, we've gotten the retro Headmasters and people come and go. Some skipped due to finances and some weren't even collectors at the time.
So I greatly appreciate Hasbro doing these reissues, and it's a great way to say "we don't plan on doing this again in the near future".
Have you thought about getting LG-54? Not only is the Bumblebee is nicer than the US version, but it came with Exosuit Spike which transformed into the Cerebros head. Probably easier/cheaper than trying to get another full Cerebros figure.
Yep, I get that and agree on both accounts: Pulse probably did have smaller quantities available and it surely has been a minute since he was easy to get at regular retail. However, I was really marveling at the notion that there would be a level of demand for him (he's merely passable-to-okay, IMO) that would warrant a full-on re-release, and that level of demand would translate to such quick movement on Pulse's site. It's interesting to me is all.
The toy is "ehhh" as a TF. Good robot mode, Really weak city/ship. But Fort Max was absolutely one of my favorite characters in the old Marvel comic and his toy was one of the crowning heights of G1. And this is his only modern toy.
I think that adds up to demand even if we all wish the toy was better.
-ZacWilliam, I would still be thrilled with a Leader or Commander scale Max figure to have him in Marvel scale.

Nah, there's differences in the main body of Cerebros too. That head might make a nice upgrade though for people who already have the Hasbro Fort Max.
Also, DNA Design is re-releasing their upgrade kits, including the ones for Fort Max (and at ShowZ, they cost around 20 dollars more than the originals).
Now if only they'd re-release Metroplex (and I don't mean the TF:Cybertron character)...
Well, the upgrade kit has been re-released so perhaps it will get one too? There's also a fairly large 3P "legends" version coming out for about 100 dollars that might do at a pinch too? Also, there's a HUGE one coming out for around 400 dollars as well.
All this time later, I'm still trying to get the Takara Cerebro Titan Master (toy-based vs Hasbro's show-based, which Takara used for the Exosuit Spike). Never even found the third party alternate faceplate set that had one based on that Cerebro; I'd take that too as an alternative.
