Scramble City

Postby Repair Bay » Thu Oct 25, 2007 10:21 am

Hey, just wondering, would anyone be able to post pics of Metroplex with all four Scramble City Leaders (Hot Spot, Onslaught, Menasor, and Superion) connected in base mode?

This would be great :D
Thanks a lot

I may be wrong but the leaders don't connect to Metroplex. However, Trypticon has connecting pieces for The Decipticon leaders.

As far as I understood it, only the limb gestalts could link up with Metroplex

1) Don't let my wife find out I was wrong. She'd put it on a calendar and say, "I knew it would happen some day!"
2) Why would they make spots for connecting Decipticon Gestalt leaders? Metrotitan wasn't conceived yet.
3) D@mn, I need Metroplex.

It's possible they had four connection spots to offer the player the choice of putting any one of the Autobot combiner leaders in any of the four positions, if that makes sense.

1) I thought men were always wrong anyway?
2) Dunno. Maybe they were all designed in Diaclone days?
3) I need to repair my Metroplex. Goddamn waist connection. :MAD:

Metroplex was my favorite toy as a kid and I still really like him. He just needs reprolabels now.

They may have been designed prior to being assigned to a faction or they might have been trying to use a universal gimmick to save time and money. Maybe both.

They designed this feature before they had desided what gestalt teams were going to be made Bot's or Con's.

I agree! He made the most out of 2 decade old plastic and made what could be the ultimate G1 Metroplex figure.
