Maybe like how the Japanese treated Fort Max, maybe Metroplex's battle station mode could instead be used as a battleship mode.

I can see it as a land-based mobile airfield, even a spacefaring vessel, but a seafaring aircraft carrier is something that seems unconvincing to me.
They call me “Tanker Chungus”!

Now we get to see the color differences between the Hasbro and Takara version of Metroplex. Hasbro's is more pearl white and Takara's will be off white. Honestly, I prefer Hasbro's paint job this time round.
Watch the first of my youtube series, Friends Transform.

I meant like a space battleship, like how Fort Max's battle station mode was repurposed into.

Wait, is the figure we're looking at in these teasers the Takara version? I assumed it was a prototype, what with the lack of black and the yellow stripes indicating landing zones that was previously seem on the model at Toy Fair.

This piece looks amazing.
I've, more or less, given up on HasTak in general. I wasn't a fan of the changes to their products over the last couple years so I stopped buying them.
However, this can bring me, and others like me, back into giving HasTak another chance...
...Unless, of course, this IS an SDCC exclusive. That would be a fail moment in my eyes.

We never said that. There will be a general release and a SDCC repaint/repackage. I know, the original announcement was badly worded...
The resident Rewind... well, half of one
- Jelze Bunnycat =:3
Looking for: - TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him ) - PotP Punch head - TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one) - CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad - TR Twinferno & Grotusque - Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1 (plus repro Victorion hands and feet?)

He's at it again! TFYuki continues with his Transformers Generations Titan Class Metroplex teasers. Here he's seen with G1 Metroplex in robot mode, who only comes up to the upcoming figure's knees!
I'm gonna love the daylights outta this thing. Doggone.

Please I hope what im seeing is some knees that are able to bend on Big Metroplex That would be a huge plus if he could do that. Still might buy him though.
