While Metroplex does look accurate enough to the original, it doesn't look as if they've actually improved upon the original toy in any way, they've just scaled it up. The vehicle mode still looks like a big lump of parts, and if he doesn't have Drill Bit or a Cyber Key, then that would mean this new toy actually has fewer features than the original toy did. I'm not attached enough to Transformers: Cybertron to bother getting this, even though I watched the show when I was a kid.
Given how Siege Galaxy Prime was an incredible disappointing modern take on Cybertron Optimus Prime, I can't see this new Metroplex being anything special.
In all honesty, the original Cybertron Metroplex was nothing to get excited over. Most people splooge over the fact he has such a realistic alt mode, but other than that, there is nothing overly great about the figure.
Oh well, more money to spend on vintage G1 figures for me then.
