That Metroplex box is beautiful

The packaging for some of these are pretty impressive. Those 5 TF's for example, and especially the Deadpool Tacos!

That Metroplex looks so good in the package that it's going to be hard to open it...

Even when we can barely see it, Metroplex's box art is phenomenal!

...But still no images of those twelve minifigures that come with him?

Those PVCs don't even look that good, in my opinion. Revoltech and Robot Replicas pulled it off much better than these.

Shockwave and his laboratory is probably the only set here that piques my interest. Generation One-inspired deco? Move aside, Fall of Cybertron Shockwave, I've found a better Classics Shockwave!

Okay, I wasn't interested in much. I already preordered Metroplex from BBTS, so I guess I'll be passing on the SDCC version (though I will have time as BBTS has stated orders won't ship until Aug 1st.)

Then I saw the Deadpool Corps.

I now wish I could go to SDCC this year...

Did someone say metroplex comes with 12 figures ?

Ya. It looks like they will be non-transforming (except for Scamper, who doesn't count as one of these 12). I haven't seen anything but speculation on who the figures are or what exactly they will look like, and I've been very interested as I will have a choice to make between SDCC and the regular release of Metroplex.

Damn, I wish these were the exclusives when I went last year. Not holding my breath that I'll be able to nab Jetfife/Hound, Boba Fett, or that Metroplex on HTS. We'll see though-fingers crossed!

I would imagine the figures that come with metroplex to be those on the front of the box under his hand? Which look to be the titan gaurdians plus some I can't see.

I was hoping for transformer able figures

Ya, me too. I thought they would be Legends figures.

What are options to get SDCC Metroplex if not attending? Are SDCC exclusives usually available as preorders at the usual online retailers?

I think I remember seeing an SDCC exclusive at BBTS, but I'm not sure as I have not bought one there. The only way I've gotten one is through the Hasbro Toy Shop or Amazon.com (which was probably still HTS somehow.)

I got a few of the alternator exclusives from eBay

They all look kinda nice, but damn that 5 pack of non-transforming figures is the worst.

Look at Starscream, he doesn't look like Starscream, he looks like one of the girl cosplayers at Auto Assembly cosplaying as Starscream.

if those 12 figures were g1 legends it would've been more appetising i'm sure. If i do splurge on a plex it'll be the standard one, the only plus point i really see of the others is the extra gun which definitely adds to his look,

here's an idea for 3rd party figure makers... release an upgrade pack for metroplex with enough guns to form sixgun and slammer.

Damn. Metroplex box twice the size of retail = higher shipping charges (if I even manage to snag it). Mini-figures unpainted and looking like 1986 decoys. I hate to sound like an old fart, but I'm starting to wonder if this is worth the effort and expense just to get a second red gun without forking over even more money for the Takara Tomy edition.
