Hidden feature for Titans Return Fortress Maximus?

If others have already discovered this and it is not newsworthy please disregard this message

Anyway, I finally opened my US TR Fortress Maximus and I discovered something that is not mentioned in the instruction manual. While I was applying the stickers and raised the double barrels cannons/guns on the legs I saw something inside both cannons/guns. I flipped the hidden part out from each gun and low and behold it looks like a gun handle. I detached these two cannons/guns from the legs and Fortress Maximus now has two guns to hold! There is a tab on each of the handle such that both guns can be secured attached on the fists. So, yes, it may not be as cool as some of those canons/guns from 3rd party add-on sets but at least Fortress Maximus has two guns to hold. The drawback of this feature is that you may break something when you detached or reattached the double barrels gun on the legs (so if you attempt to do this and broke something don't blame me ).

(Now that I think about it I have saw pictures of the Japanese Fortress Maximus which have shown this feature. Why doesn't Hasbro make this feature known?? )

Re: Hidden feature for Titans Return Fortress Maximus?

I saw this feature from a review on YouTube. It still grinds my gears that Hasbro did not include 1 extra hand gun like in the photo of his box especially considering he is a $200 figure. I bought a PE Master Sword for mine so he is weapon ready. But anyway, good on you for pointing it out to everyone else.

Would have been awesome if FM came with a Big Red gun just like Metroplex in addition to the leg guns. Then my Mextroplex would more or less be complete.

By the way, the handles on those guns are identical to Big Red's handle.

Yeah, I think a few video reviews may have pointed out this feature.

Re: Hidden feature for Titans Return Fortress Maximus?

I noticed when I finally opened my Fort Max tonight that he has a double barreled gun pegged into his left side compartment on his upper chest that can be used by Cerebros in his robot form as a weapon. I know it's main use is for a Titan Master to sit in city or battle station mode but at least it has another option and can serve as a hand held weapon for Cerebros like the leg cannons can be guns for Fort Max.
