Is this Metroplex's design completely original, being just an modernized update to the original design like what any Classics-style figure has been? Or, is it actually based on some existing version of Metroplex (like, is there an IDW G1 version of Metroplex)?

That's not what I was asking. And this is not FOC Metroplex's design.craggy wrote:Fall Of Cybertron Metroplex is based on Metroplex's appearance in Fall Of Cybertron, an electronic video game based on Hasbro's The Transformers characters.

Yep. I think it is supposed to be FoC Metroplex, but all they did was scale up/slightly alter the G1 design instead of doing an extensive replication of the FoC character model (which is what I was really hoping for so I'm sad ).

This thing looks AWESOME!
Now I really hope they bring out a Trypticon of the same scale...

Look, what I was asking is if this particular Metroplex's design was a completely original G1-homage design or based on any existing G1-homage design. ALL Metroplexes homage the G1 design, but this is NOT the G1 design. This is some updated version of the G1 design, and I was asking if this particular updated design was made specificially for this toy or if it was taken from an existing source like a comic or something.craggy wrote:FOC Metroplex was clearly based on G1 Metroplex in the first place though, or was anyone confusing him with someone else when he showed up in the game trailers? He's a big white robot and the head is similar, and he transforms by sitting down. Not a huge departure in designs like say Beast Wars vs G1 Megatrons, Silverbolts or Rampages. IDW, FOC and pretty much every other version of Metroplex I've seen has taken it's basic design from the G1. Even the Cybertron one with it's crazy alt mode had the basics down.

If I were into Cyberverse, I'd stick him with them. But I'm not into Cyberverse, so he will have a most honorable place among my Supreme-class figures.
