What stops me from collecting the MP line is scale. If Hasbro does eventually move on to doing all of Seasons 1-2, there will be no room to display them. Thats why I always joke about them being for coffee tables. I have my 3 MP seekers in jet mode doing a flyover in triangle formation. (right on my coffee table lol)

I have neither room, nor the want to drop that much money on a single thing. The Cyberverse version however, will likely stand proud with my Prime CVs on my computer desk here.
Which G1 continuity featured a normal-transformer-sized Metroplex, by the way? Or was that Fort Max?

the current IDW comics have Fort Max being the size of a large-ish normal Transformer. Think Ultra Magnus size, maybe a little bigger. The old Marvel comics had him sized all over the place, but he did wrestle Galvatron once and was not that much bigger than him. IDW's Metroplex is pretty gigantic, as is the one in the FOC game.

This thing looks AWESOME!
Now I really hope they bring out a Trypticon of the same scale...
I officially praise Hasbro today.![]()

Hasbro rep said they dropped about $400k to revamp the mold.

Giant, only because it's cheaper. Remember to get the green/purple variant (unless you like G2 over G1).

I have a sad because of how much Australian retailers will jack up the price.![]()

1) He does not fit in the Japan exclusive Commander sub-category (as the original debuted in Scramble City: Mobilization and became an Earth Commander in The Headmasters).
2) It has not been confirmed that TOMY will add him to their own "Generations" line.
3) I already own the "Encore" reissue of Metroflex.
4) TOMY hinted* that the "Fall of Cybertron" incarnations tied to their Generations line are tied to their G1 reboot (i.e. "ALL SPARK").
5) And yet, this incarnation of Metroplex appears to be tied to IDW's own G1 reboot, instead of a continuation of "FoC" versions of existing characters.
[*: I have all the Kerokero Ace issues that include "ALL SPARK." So nyah!]
However... I will not rule it out quite yet. That, and hightly recommend it to fans of the IDW/G1 fanbase. (Meanwhile... This is making me rething about praying for a G1 reissue of Metrotitan. But I doubt I will want him.)
