That's certainly impressive stuff. Clearly Mark's is going to be even better, but you know - we can't all aspire to that kind of level.
Wonder what happened to that wooden jobbie..?

Much as I like Mark's work, I think this one tops his design since it is more accurate in both modes. Mark is going to have a hard time topping this version.

I dunno... I think with a few exceptions (non-detachable hands, some extra articulation), this is to a large extent just an upscaled version of the original fig. Now I'm not saying that in any way to take down this guy's achievements - It's brilliant stuff, and I know I'd be hard pushed to top it. But from what we've seen of Mark's, I'm pretty sure that it'll be as far beyond this as this is beyond the original toy.

I think Marks is and will be mind-blowing when it'd done.

This Metroplex is amazing too, and as Tramp said it's more accurate in both modes. I'm a sucker for toon accuracy so I'd have a hard time deciding which toy I like more.

One thing I really don't like about this toy are the arm cannons. I don't get why they're so small. I could understand the size difference if he used the original arm cannons, but that's not the case here.
