After 3 months he is finally finished, its been a hell of a ride and i have enjoyed every second of it.

His features include:

-Transforms into the Autobots most formidable weapon, to battle station.
-4 LED’s in the chest, head and weapons.
-Ultimate cannon features light and sound.
-2 large cannons that attach directly to his forearms that double as weapons in robot mode, or city towers in battle station form.
-Custom Minicon Six-Gun attaches to backpack and weapons, and transformers into his faithful Autobot AI.
-Custom Minicon Slammer has been reformatted to an osprey plane to make better use of his landing pad. He stores in Metroplex’s backpack in robot form, and transforms into a weapons tower on the battle station deck.
-Custom scout class Scamper has been given an upgrade, to fit in line as his only non AI ally.
-Command tower that plugs onto the deck on the battle station, or stores on his waist in robot form.
-Rotating shoulder cannons and Detachable Shoulder Towers.
-Stands over 16 inches tall.
-Over 18 points of articulation including full fingered hands and ball jointed toes.

HOPE YOU GUYS LIKE IT!!!!!!!

Of all the Metroplex customs I've seen, this has to rank as one of the top five.

Add a little weathering and a matte clear coat, and he'll look like he just walked out of game itself! Awesome work!

That is one damn impressive robot mode. I especially like the incorporation of the original Metroplex kneecaps into the upper legs of your design - it's a great callback.

Best Metroplex custom I can think of - most people make him too skinny. Well done.

thanks bud, i wish i could say he went to a nice home, but after the person i sold it too filed bogus claims on ebay, which he won. he was returned with absolutely 0 packing from when i sold it, and as a result he was pretty much destroyed. gonna take a long time before i can repair him up to what he was.
