You're right that it's not FOC Metroplex, but you're incorrect to say "It says Generations on the package and therefore is an updated G1 Metroplex." There are lots of figures (including the entire WFC and FOC lines) that say Generations on the package but are NOT updated G1 figures.

Me oh my...

The waist is a bit skinny, and I do appreciate criticisms people are making about possible articulation issues (it'd be a shame if you couldn't put him in some awesome dramatic poses) but good golly those textures are stunning.

And that head... *drools*

He's right insofar as it says "Generations" and not "Generations: Fall of Cybertron." Therefore, Ultra Markus was right to begin with. ;)

However, the WFC figures and Classics-style Generations figures used the same Generations logo.

Not to mention that this or any of the new Generations figures coming after the Wreckers do not say "Generations: IDW", yet they're all very certainly the IDW characters.
If you've read Exodus, wanna read the War For Cybertron comic? PM me.

This is Sabrblade we're talking about. His ability to store trivial information about TV shows is downright superhuman.

Immediately, two thoughts come to mind:
  1. I shudder at the thought of how big a Trypticon (or Fort Max) would be.
  2. Reprolabels, this is your mission, should you choose to accept it: Make NEW bridge/command center window decals with the following: G1 Ultra Magnus, G1 Scamper, G1 Springer, G1 Arcee and Daniel Witwicky. (G1 Silverbolt and Hot Spot would also make choice alternates.)
