But Fortress, it's a different feeling entirely. All the accessories included, big sword, japanese box. I remember having seen a FM G1 back in 1987 at my local TRU: I have a clear memory of this moment. The big box, sitting alone on a lower shelf. Price tag: about 89.99$CAN...or was it less? |
I understand completely. Got my Brave version of Fort Max years ago and still love it, but to have the re-issue original complete set is a different feeling.
Fort Max is my third expensive figure. Maketoys Devestator and ThreeA Metal Gear Rex rank up there too. Then again I need to keep track of the MMC Predaking/Feral Rex so that will be the fourth big expensive figure for me. Other than that, Brave Maximus was around 200 shipped or something back in the day and I really haven't gone more than that on a figure before. MP SW was up there...ehh yeah kinda add that to the list too.
Between you and ThreeA, I don't even wanna know what I spent on toys so far this past few months. Selling some old stuff to cover Fort Max's total cost certainly made a difference though. Was proud I made that goal since it officially had no affect on my budget and I still have some spare $$$ too. Actually covered the Rumble/Buzzsaw from you as well as a couple ThreeA figures. So that's been super helpful!!
