Masterpiece to me means being much more artculated and show accurate (in both modes) than the original but not nessarily mean bigger (that's why I don't consider the so called aftermarket 20th prime trailers masterpieces because it's just a supersized G1 trailer).  So if it accomplishes the first 2 criteria (heck just be articulated) and I'd buy it (not for $1000 though).  Having a 5'6" toy of any kind would be cool for about a minute, then it would be annoying after that.  By chance this possible commission you speak of, is it related to the wooden one shown in the kitbash forum being built?

wow,is it possible have MP fortmax??? :tfhuh

I'd like a regular sized Fort Max with better posability, some electronics, and some more "city features" (more hideway places and stuff)  that came with propotionate TFs (not transformable but maybe come with them in each mode) with little magnets on them that would stick to for max.

um.... you might want to read the whole thread noriko :tflaugh

ok guys, well heres the deal, i just found out how much it is that Dalianjj put into the trailer he had made.... yea.. something so small cost so much... I dont think that I would even be able to begine on even a hand for this guy... Kinda sux, but I thought that maybe it would be a fun idea to pass around... Im sorry if anyone ended thinking that this would actually happen.... mainly myself...  :tfsad ahhh well... maybe I could make one out of foam board at that sized.... that would be interesting... oh and sidewys, the wooden Metro is actually inspired me to go thru with this idea... I acctually have been thinking about doing this for the past.... 5 years I want to say... but now Im thinking its going to be nothing more than a foam board creation once im done with it...  as for all of your ideas, I was going to incorperate them all with the light up eyes, articulated hands like a PG Gundams, knees, rotating waist, and so on... As for your comment VP, There isnt much more to make accurate on Maximus unless you want the version of cerebros that was made state side, over the Fortress that was the Japanese version... I was acctually thinking that maybe I would do a design of both that way you could get the US or Jap versions of him, and the go down the line and use that JAp versions for the Grand and Brave Maximus's Or maybe I could get creative and just make the foam bord and then mold and cast it in colored resin... IDK, maybe im just  crazy person with a crazy dream...

66'' is too big. 44'' maybe... that's still a lot of money. If anything, I would try to make it 1.5 time the size of the original and make it better (head that could turn, poseable legs, arms, electronics, etc.).

I would tend to agree w/ these two. Except that I would make any accompanying figures able to transform.

 

An MP Fort Max would need to be something that is much more articulated and difficult to transform (think Autobot City in TF:TM w/ little panels everywhere) and has more city features, including a play mat or something.

 

I think that it should be to scale w/ either the minicons, or my personal preference, the WST.

 

It should definitely have articulated fingers, more moveable joints throughout (ie some damn knees), and some lights and cool sounds if possible.

 

I would pay upwards of $400 for something like that that was MP quality.

Never hurts to have a dream.

 

Plus, topics like this might someday convince Hasbro to make one (I know that Archer has said he doesn't like them, but that doesn't mean that he will be there forever, or might not get overruled).

I would agree with you on this one, however if you think about it then all I would need to do is reverse enginere any maximus and then modify the hands and knees.. because well, frankly, Maximus is already to scale with WSTF's in my opinion. What I wanted to do was create a mold that would be in scale with the 84' bots and cons. make the helipad big enough to hold atleast the RM seekers. The slide mechanisms on the city ramps big enough to hold the 84'-85' cars, and the main entrance ramp the the elevator big enought to house G1 Prime with his trailer. I want to make this this big enought to make G1 TF's look like WTF's when they are standing next to eachother... does anyone se this possibley happening??

Also, if for those of you who say that youde buy one at a reasonable price, what would you see that being at??
