I think you'll have a hard time finding it in a physical store. It's so big I bet most retailers will only offer it online, or they'll only have two in stock.

It's gonna cost you $120-130. BBTS has it for $109, but you'll pay at least $10 shipping from them.

Metroplex was at three of the four Toys R Us's around San Diego today and wouldn't be surprised if he is around your local TRU also. One even had five so......

$129 bucks. Now....to those stickers.
New pics added as I find time.

Two of the TRU's around here have him. Don't give up keep searching..

2 flipping hours it took me to put all those stickers on nice and straight and even... With tweezers too.
Not a sheeple.
Think for yourself, don't let the magic TV box and social media do the thinking for you.
Question EVERYTHING!!
Just because you have a youtube review channel doesn't make you special.
I look forward to attending a Botcon soon only to settle matters with several idiots in person (yes this is a threat).

The stickers on mine keep popping up, especially the ones that have to lay around the various corners of the mold. I took THREE HOURS and used tweezers to make sure I put on each and every sticker precisely and firmly. Is everyone having this issue? I've got the SDCC version of Metroplex, and I wonder if part of the problem is that the stickers are printed on foil paper. I've had the same (ongoing) problem with my Universe 2008 reissued Insecticons TRU exclusives, whose stickers are also printed on foil.

I got mine from BBTS..No way I was gonna wait for TRU to put one out. I got mine for 109 and had the other 2 FP not stunticons and the shipping was only 15 for all 3. The box WAS HUGE..

Im taking my time with his sticker sheet..Im only displaying him in one position anyways..
