And correctin myself earlier, it's deluxe class sized.

That is the one I have! And who is this guy doing the review?? He's hilarious!

"Miles Bennet Killbison!"

I've seen his videos listed on Youtube before, but that's the first time I've actually watched one. I've now got a sneaking suspicion I went to the same primary school as him. Either way he's bloody brilliant.

Here's a couple of additional images from TFYuki. Nothing new really, but fun images none the less. We've decided his images won't be hitting the frontpage unless they reveal something new. Enjoy!

Oh, work it, baby! Work those joints, Metroplex!

*sigh* We finally get a Blitzwing and Trailbreacutter, and then Metroplex happens, and we need to buy everyone again but in a smaller scale. This hobby will never end, will it?

I'll eat my Botcon T-shirt if it can actually stand in that pose.

There's little likelihood it'll -stay- in that pose, at least leaning forward like that, but the point is that he's VERY posable for being so huge.

Only if Ryan makes it Seibertron.com's banner image.

This confirm suspicions that this and Scampe are merely production samples. Not nearly enough red detailing, and his bridge-like area/canopy is unpainted.

I have to say... a LOT of what Hasbro has put out in the past couple of years has left me cold. The sculpts for a lot of the heads, vehicles, gestalts have been so far off the mark... comparing them with their 3rd party counterparts was pretty sad.

BUT... this. THIS is amazing. Great sculpt, detail, articulation, scale... respectful and well-executed homage. Bravo. You have me back on board. Keep it coming.

Those pictures are fricking awesome, can't wait to get mine in the hands.

News Credits: 4 · Mon May 06, 2013 12:40 pm

yeah, looking really good. hope to see some pics of the finished colours for both Hasbro and T/T versions soon, so I can decide which I want to preorder.

Mon May 06, 2013 12:43 pm

which version to order... or which VERSIONS? >:oP

for me, it'll just be one. £150 is a lot of money.

Kapow has the Hasbro for £155 and TT for £160 and it's free shipping over £100 so an extra fiver won't hurt for this bad boy.

'True dat' as a great Seibertronian once said! :lol:

Mon May 06, 2013 1:35 pm

Yeah, I just wish they'd release some final-version pics of each one... and metrotitan. ;-)

You know, some un-Photoshopped photos. Those Hasbro promotional pics are not completely useful, if you know what I mean.

The pic of him running is a little deceiving I think. Those legend figures are way in front of him making them look bigger than they are.

Hasbro has released a new set of official images for their upcoming Transformers Generations Titan Class Metroplex figure. These images reveal the massive figure in all his non-photoshoped glory, as we see actual production versions of both Metroplex and Scamper. Check out the images mirrored below, courtesy of TFW2005 user juise.
