Kingdom Titan Class THE ARK video review

Posted by -Kanrabat- Jun 25, 2021 at 1:57pm CDT 41,462 views
Greetings Seibertronians!

The Ark is soon to be released worldwide and Prime VS Prime have provided the video review!

The Ark was the spaceship the Autobots used to escape the Decepticons to Earth millions of years ago in the G1 continuity. For the first time ever, the Ark have now his toy version. Furthermore, he can transform into what seems to be something inspired by "The Last Autobots from the comics.

He come with a tiny Optimus Prime for scale and a transformable Teletran-1.

This will be the last Titan to be released for a long while.

Are you excited for this release? Let us know!

Watch video

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

I have had my pre-order in for a while. I was actually impressed it is as tall as Omega Supreme in Robot Mode (though I disagree with PvP, Omega has way more engineering, The Ark is pretty simple). But I'm still looking forward to it. Mainframe/Teletran-1 is pretty cool as well.

Someone asked that at a sit down with the TF development team back on April 15th.

Can’t confirm or deny officially.

Not only am I excited and looking forward to his release, I already paid for my pre-order on Amazon using gift cards. This will be my second titan and my first Autobot titan so I'm glad it is something off the wall like the Ark itself. As TFWiki shows, the Transformers universe is a multi-verse and I don't view the WfC Trilogy as 'true' G1 or Beast Wars. So any and all deviances from the originals do not bother me like the Ark only having four thrusters instead of five and Mainframe also being Teletraan-1. I like alternate takes and the multi-versal outlook so all can exist at the same time.

Another early review, this time Road Rage from Chefatron. Will this better look change your opinion of her WJ? ;)

Maybe, maybe not. It could also be an artful dodge. Technically Black Zarak comes out after the Ark.

There will be another Metroplex, someday, somehow. Maybe it'll be another decade, but I have faith he'll be back.

Another 10 years is fair, but there are still several other Titans that could be made in the interim, not sure why everyone always obsesses over Metroplex.

Because let's be honest here. Generations Metroplex is a bad figure.

I would say no new Titans at retail for at least a year or two. Most leakers have said about the two commanders for next year. I do fully expect them to do a cartoon accurate metroplex with a metrotitan selects

I know a LOT of people don't like it, but I'd say more or less it hasn't aged well with some. I'm actually fine with it, considering I didn't get one until a little over 2 years ago.

The Original Metroplex wasn't that great either, honestly, although as a kid I loved it. I certainly don't think it will take until 2034 to get another one, but I'd rather us get at least one go with as many titans as possible before we start the whole cycle over again. One way they could go about it, that would be awesome, is if in another 2-3 years we finally got an Awesome new Metrotitan, with the guaranty that it would then be repainted as Metroplex in the near future after that. As opposed to getting Metrotitan repaint from T30.

I really hope they'll do. It could be a nice Select Titan.

In addition to the reasons others mentioned, do an eBay search on "Generations Metroplex" for another.

It's the right time to sell the thing. For some reasons, he became highly desirable and can be sold easily for between 400$ and 500$. So anyone who don't really like their Gen Metroplex like me can do as I did and sell the thing to buy the Ark, Commander Rodimus, and some more bots.

Hoping for a selects main frame in his action master colors.

The Ark feels like its heavy dependant on upgrade kits as per most titans. Not keen on the space ship legs and they could have engineered something to cover the side hollows. The little turrets just being sculpted detail sucks and showing once again that modern figures have some failings comppared to older toys. the grey area on teh ship looks like it should do something and there doesnt seem to be be any 'breast force' or even soundwave eject action going on for mainframe and the arks bot mode.

If it hits trypticon price drop lows then I'm not going to be able to say no but I think I'd rather have other things on display for the amount of space it will take up.

As I stated above, I just got mine 2 years ago, so yeah I was looking at similar prices. I was just patient and happened to find a good deal. If I didn't have it already, I'd still be patiently looking online rather than demanding Hasbro make another. I mean TT re-released it 2 more times as well, it not like there weren't sufficient chances. I believe BBTS had them as late as February 2019

If we get a redo on a titan figure, I think Fort Max should top that list. The base mode on the original G1 version was really nice looking, the one on the Titans return version, looks like someone vomited and turned it into a transformer.

Sorry if someone has already mentioned this, but if we got a transforming ark, it’s likely we will get a transforming nemesis. Also, I wish I would’ve gotten that metroplex back in 2014ish. That’s before I started spending BIG on figures.

The Ark's bridge is 100% based on the same "Starship Enterprise-D" styled bridge design seen in both Cyberverse and the Netflix cartoon.
