I'm trying to identify the figures that went into Metroplex...I see Primus , Super Valkyrie armor from Robotech, and pieces of Micro Machines on the head. Where'd you get the legs?

Also, very nice. I like the little O.P down there!

Thank you, you were right about all but micromachines, however the chestpeice on Scorponok is a matchbox jet that I modified. For Metroplex I used the head,arms and main body of primus, G-1 Metroplex's upper torso,arms,and toe caps.
From the waist down is Supreme Starscream but heavily modified as well as the shoulder armor, both of which took hours with the dremel tool, hollowing out the insides to allow for the feet to move and the shoulder armor to fit over the pre-existing arms of G-1 Metroplex. The guns on his head are Transformer weapons i'm pretty sure, however i'm not sure who they belonged to.The guns on his shoulders are from Grand Patriot, The hand Cannon is from Gundam Gpo2a Physalis, The backpack is from a Valkyrie, the tank tracks are from G.I. Joe. The infamous Metroplex head horns are from cybertron Metroplex.
There are 15 points of full articulation, all built with screws, very little glue was used in this build.

I used the Revoltek Prime to show scale but Metroplex is 19" tall, Tallest in my collection so far.

Yes, I recognize the legs now. The tracks threw me off. The reason I guessed Micro Machines for those guns was because I have two guns that look similar and are the same size. Now I want to use them to make my own 'Plex head!
