Edit: I've had another look and noticed that leg articulation is limited and transformation is almost G1. All that money is going towards size, not inventiveness.


Okay so you're like, meh, not impressed.

Hasbro makes a Transformers toy bigger than Fortress Maximus, something that has never been done in the past 20+ years.

Wow, what toy or toyline does impress his excellency?

Anything with a good transformation and good articulation. Classics, TFP, MP. I'm more of a quality over size person. Oh, and BTW, I don't appreciate your tone.

Damn, how did I miss that? Looks like I stand partially corrected. I'm still not sure he's worth that much to me.

A 24" Metroplex is nice but I think to with this Hasbro/Takara should make a Trypticon to go with it thats in scale with the cyberverse. If so, there goes my a few of paychecks over the summer. :BOOM:

I have no problem buying this if the price is around the £100-120 mark i'm fine with that anything higher might be a stretch, it even has me wanting to those legends figures to make him look even more gigantic on display.

same here. If he's available from decent, online US-based retailers and they don't mark him up past the $125 we should be able to get him shipped for about £120, assuming customs guys don't decide to have a night at the pub.

Hmmm, that looks like a pretty friggin' cool figure.

Anyone on here want to buy it for me so I can buy it from you? I'll give you an extra $25 for it. I try not to purchase anything made in China that isn't an essential item for a family/home to have. So if I buy it 3rd party, I get my toy, the money goes to you and my conscience is clear.

This guy is about twice as big as Fort Max but is at the $125 price tag coming this August.

Sounds like a sweet deal seeing that I never had the chance to own a Citybot before.
