Awesome! Thanks for the heads up on these. Just ordered them both. Doubt I will ever see these at retail locally and this saves me a ton of hassle and wasted gas.

Rock on! Got 'em. I had been hoping pre-ordering these on BBTS would prevent me from hunting all over town to find them, but my pre-order never came in. So I just cancelled it and ordered these. Boom. Thanks for the heads up!

Well I missed out on Springer but £25 for Blitzwing to be shipped to the UK is ok with me. Doubt we'll see him in UK stores anytime soon.

New Galleries: Generations Metroplex and Scamper -- Over 600 Pics!!!

PostPosted: Thu Jul 04, 2013 1:11 pm
by Seibertron
It's time to move over Fortress Maximus ... Generations Metroplex is here! Who needs fireworks on 4th of July when you've got this amazing gallery of the biggest Transformers toy ever made. Generations Metroplex arrived just in time to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the Transformers brand as part of Hasbro's Generations "Thrilling 30" line.

Image

This massive 2 feet tall Titan Class Autobot finally takes the long standing 26 year title as the tallest Transformers toy ever from fan-favorite Fortress Maximus. While Fort Max will always have a special place in the collections of Transformers fans across the world, Metroplex will undoubtedly shoot to the top as the must-have Transformers toy due to his sheer size, affordable price point, multitude of features, accessories and the fact that he's fully poseable (try putting your Fort Max into some action poses and you'll quickly see how Metroplex takes the top spot).

Image

Metroplex comes complete with lights, sounds, articulated eyes, three massive cannons (one of which is a missile launcher), ramps, hidden cannons, a battle station mode, a city mode, and even comes with his Legends Class buddy Scamper.

"The most vast and mighty Autobot ever created, Metroplex is a member of a race long thought of as nothing more than legend. He is impossibly ancient, brought online in a time before the long memory of his Autobot comrades even began. He is a living artifact of an era when Cybertron was united, and needed defenders only against hostile outsiders. It is his memory of that peaceful past that drives him to fight for the Autobots. It is hope for the return of peace that motivates him to crush every Decepticon he can see beneath his mighty feet."

The biggest Autobot ever is over 2 feet tall and he's going to crush his Decepticon foes! This enormous 3-in-1 Metroplex figure's glowing eyes will make even the fiercest Decepticon think twice about taking him on. His lights and sounds make the action even more intense! In robot mode his firing missile will take them down, and he converts to battle vehicle mode when he needs some enormous firepower! He even converts to fortified city mode for massive adventures! He comes with a Scamper Legends figure to fight at his side. Make your Transformers adventures gigantic with this awesome Metroplex figure!

PRODUCT FEATURES
2-foot-tall Metroplex figure is the biggest Autobot ever!
3-in-1 figure converts from robot mode to vehicle mode to city mode!
Glowing and articulated eyes!
Lights and sounds!
Firing missile!

Without further ado, you can't have the first ever Titan Class Transformer without an appropriately massive gallery to accompany it here on Seibertron.com. Check out over 600+ images of Metroplex and Scamper as we do our best to show you the scale of this incredible 10 out of 10 figure alongside his fellow Generations Autobots and Legends Class Transformers as well as comparison shots to Fortress Maximus, G1 Metroplex, Trypticon, Generations Bruticus, and more!

The unpainted face is a disappointment, but othewise...DANG, is he impressive!

Too bad I don't have space for him/my girlfriend will never let that in the apartment. :-(

Maybe if I rearrange the collection and put the MPs elsewhere...

Amazing pics dude. I have a question. Do any deluxe sized figures fit on the surfaces of Metroplex? I see you have Sideswipe rolling out of the edge of the track in base-mode. Does he actually fit further in? He is small for a deluxe, so was curious.

... so how long will it take for a third party to look at metroplex and create a kit to go with for creating Sixgun and Slammer

Six months to a year for the developmental phase, then another six to pump them out and get them ready for shipping.

Just an educated guess, nothing more. ;)

I am betting that Metroplex will be repainted into Fort Max.

While I welcome such a move, I'd much rather see a Decepticon counterpart come out first: more specifically, Metroplex's rival, Trypticon. In the same size in height, please. :grin:

If they do indeed retool this into Fortress Maximus, I ask that they retool the head for the Headmaster-ception gimmick and also make his corresponding rival, Scorponok.

Has a toy roughly his size actually been significantly repainted by Hasbro in recent years? I'm talking genuine new decos, not color variants or new stuff added.
