Now, that looks more like Sixgun.

Looks good, but I'm still leaning toward Before and After's version of Sixgun. The proportions just look better.

Too big for my liking.

I'd certainly be curious to see a size comparison between it and the Before and After Six-Gun.

I'll admit my mind boggled a bit when I saw the photo here and saw that it was taller then Maketoys Giant! I know intellectually that Metroplex is, to put it bluntly, freakin' huge, and thus so would a corresponding Six-Gun be. But not having a Metroplex in hand yet, it is hard to visualize such things sometimes.

I'm hazarding a guess based off the photos we've had, but I'd say Before and After's looks ever-so-slightly smaller than Giant if you're going by head-height. I realise that doesn't really mean much until we see it.

Too big for me. Pass

I do have to agree with the size concerns. As big as it is, it's likely going to be out of my price range. But of all of them I've seen so far, this one looks the best as an actual modern take on the G1 Sixgun figure.

I like it. If it comes in at a decent price, I may bite. I am curious to see how he disassembles. I wonder if the torso becomes a tower like in G1. I'd love to see accessories that can help Metroplex look more like a city in city mode than a sitting bot.

This toy will no doubt cost over $90. Too rich for my blood for what your getting. 1986 Sixgun never really had a design I was fond of. I'd rather spend the $90 on a better 3rd party TF toy.

I think $90 is too low. I bet this thing goes near $200 if not more. Genesis was what, $350? This one's skinnier, but close to the same height, if I remember correctly.

Rechecking the Sixgun pics. It looks like this figure is a bit over sized in relation to Titan Metroplex. The Sixgun riffle looks a bit over sized in Metroplex's fist and on his ramp. It appears all the Sixgun parts that become metroplex's weapons are overly sized.

I think I like this design most of the 3, but I agree with others that it is too big.

B&A are winning this toss up for me right now.

Why's he so big? did Sixgun ever appeared in the cartoons and is this size? or is it this size in relation to G1 Metroplex and G1 Sixgun?

I'm guessing this.
