TKLegends Fortress ?overproduced? run
 
Just got one of these today, wanted to pass along the good

If you believe the backstory, apparently Takara overproduced LG-31’s deluxe headbot,
and these “factory rejects” are now being sold on Aliexpress

Saw it on tfw2005, a guy posted about his copy and everyone pressed him for details

I just got mine in today, and it’s pretty f*ckin beautiful imo -
it doesn’t have any interior electronics, and is missing the autobot chest logo
(but who among us doesn’t have extra faction logo stickers everywhere)

But for literally like $26 CAD (wife used a coupon)
this is a GREAT way for anyone who got the NA/TR FortMax,
but maybe always wanted a JP-colours Fortress?
Like his rendition in the Headmasters cartoon!
This is great value for my money, thought everyone here might like a shot at it

(sorry for giant pic below; I’m phoneposting and it’s exhausting)

Also I would just like to reiterate, this is ONLY the deluxe headbot,
NOT a full titan FortMax

But it’s (allegedly) from the original Has/Tak factory itself,
not made of any different materials or anything -
feels just like a real one to me

And the titanmaster is beautiful, he’s got his lil painted face
with two different colours on it, neither of which are the default plastic colour!
(This is huge if u like titanmasters)

I ordered one of these at the start of the month to use for parts to fix up my stock Cerebros. 25 bucks and free shipping and my Fort Max will be up to par in no time.

Someone on TFW2005 mentioned that there's concerns with the hips where the legs can shear off. How does your copy fare?

Also I seem to be the one weirdo who doesn't have spare faction stickers lying around, so... :o

Hmmm, my copy's legs haven't fallen off yet, though it does feel a bit slight around the thigh swivels
Though also, it's been ages since I fiddled with my 1st run TR FortMax Cerebros; for all I know the original is the same way?

I was thinking that if I end up getting that DNA kit with the replacement Cerebros legs/boots, that if they work with this guy too, I might put em on this guy instead, and the NA Cerebros can just stay as FortMax head - but we'll see
