Leak Reveals New Legacy Line with Titan Cybertron Metroplex and Price Increase

Interseting how this presentation was given to a family dollar representative, which means that there's probably some more of those Authentics Figures coming out.

Also, that alt mode is just plain bad. Metroplex looks like he's someone's prison b!tch

Metroplex, huh?

If it were Tidal Wave I'd be down.

Cool

If that Metroplex dosent disintegrate in transformation like The Ark and have the satisfying clickity-clackytack joints of the original, I'll preorder him day one.

What do you mean disintegrate? Should I be worried about how much mine gets used?

Like a miniature Kup figure to ride his tank mode?

It would be nice if Blitzwing's tank mode is large enough so that it just about scales with Kup and you can recreate that scene. I doubt it will be of course, I'm expecting Blitzwing to be only slightly bigger than Voyager with extra parts and maybe some complex engineering to justify the Leader price point. But I am clinging to the feint hope that he is a big Leader, Hasbro heard the feedback on Siege Astrotrain and are making another, larger one.

What, AGAIN? That Astrotrain was great! Awesome even that they bothered to include him a tender for his locomotive mode

VERY eager to see better images of this guy, although that price stings. The fact that the saw end of his weapon actually looks more saw-like and they seem to have taken at least some steps to make the alt mode better looks promising and the fact that he even exists at all still doesn't feel real.

I wonder if he doesn't come with Drill Bit because they're planning to release him as a stand-alone Weaponizer like all the recent Titan partner characters, or if he does come with him and it just isn't shown on this slide that very obviously isn't intended to be used in/as an actual reveal. It's not like the PotP leak revealed every single detail of the leaked figures, after all.

Its not great, but at least its different. This'll be an easy pass for most, but they're trying which is nice.

I'm still hoping for a Titan Class Optimal Optimus and a Commander Class Transmetal Rampage.

For those that are excited, I am happy for them. For me, its an easy pass. I'm kind of sad as this will be the first Titan I don't own. But the good side is that is money reallocated to get the MP Raiden. (or at least one component of him) .

I'm just wondering what kind of research Hasbro has done to justify this Titan instead of something else.

The answer is simple, really.
Legacy will revive the Unicron Trilogy. Even if there's not much UC characters, the introduction is strong with that Metroplex. I do hope the titan for 2023 will be Cybertron Menasor to pit against him.

I sincerely doubt this will sell in any significant numbers. Seriously, as a fan of Galaxy Force, this is just as badly realised as the equally poor Galaxy Force Prime that was just released in Siege. In both cases, you might as well get the originals, which I think still sell for reasonable prices in collectors' shops or online.

Explain "reasonable".

Because the only way for the price to be "reasonable" is for an incomplete toy. And that damn minicon seem to be made out of cotton candy underwater.
I've got mine. It was stated as "mostly complete". And unlike my Cybertron Menasor (no key) that was found at a flea market for 15$CAN, there's no secret compartment where the minicon is hidden.

So the only option is to buy the thing mint in box for actual titan price.
