Hasbro Transformers Platinum Edition G1 Reissue Trypticon: In-Box

Posted by shajaki May 24, 2015 at 7:10pm CDT 37,303 views
Thanks to Cybertron Philippines and Seibertronian Primeultimus we now have In-Box shots of Hasbro Transformers Platinum Edition G1 Reissue Trypticon! It was only days ago that the Trypticon Reissue went from rumor to confirmation (with a TFsource Pre-Order), and now we have shots of some stunning box artwork and the open flap picture window of the figure. Keep scrolling to see the pics, join the discussion in our Energon Pub, or browse our Exclusive Gallery section. There's always something to do at Seibertron.com!

Looks like the decals are already attached just like Piranacon.

Focus on one genre. What is your primary? I'm on G1 vintage. So I focused on it like my Seeker Squad. The UW line comes in 2 month intervals hence I can recharge the funds.

This statement tops the photo of Takara's Scourge riding Gel-shark for "best thing I've seen or heard all day". :lol: :lol:

That's pretty cool. But I think I'll still hold out for a generations remake of Trypticon that's even taller than Metroplex ;)

In the Japanese back story, the original Metroplex (Encore#12 recent release) was severely damaged. The reconstruction on him lead to his doubling/tripling size to that of Fortmax. So now, Maybe a new backstory for a generations remake of the big Dino. Though I wish for "less" electronic gimmicks this time.

But nearly 9 years from Tomy/Takara's Metroflex re-issue...........sigh.Now a Hasbor Asia/Platinum release! Our hobbies are quite a bit of a frustration and self flagellation. But rewards are quite priceless once completed. :DANCE:

Trypticon has been on my shortlist to buy for way too long and a true complete vintage one usually runs over $200 so I'll probably snag this.

Btw, for those who want a Titan Class version, good sales on both this and Devastator would probably help convince them to do one.

5 years ago and $100 less I'd have been up for this. But in a world where Botcon Scorponok and Titan Metroplex exist this thing seems, no pun intended, prehistoric.

I don't usually go for G1 reissues, but Trypticon is something unique that they don't seem ready to repeat yet. Shame it's so expensive, or I'd be all over it.

How big is he, BTW?

I'm surprised to read this from you ... and I'm surprised you don't have Titan Metroplex and BotCon Scorponok.

Mine is in base mode and covered in legions, but I'd guess between 12 to 14 inches in dino mode. Anyone feel free to correct me. ;)

I have both of those figures...which is another reason why I wouldn't want a G1 reissue of Tryppy at this price.

I got lucky to get a complete G1 Trypticon a few years back for about the cost of the Platinum.

I'm with Diem: this is fantastic for G1, but I want a Titan Trypticon
