WIP G1-Classic Metroplex

Ok, so I see there's a ton of these coming up but I been working on this one since I finished MP Trypticon. This is where I'm at so far about 85 percent done with the build. I had a hard time keeping the transformation and making him articulated. But he will have all 3 modes. Here’s a few WIPS

I love how you managed to clean up the knees on this thing! I've seen some great Metroplex updates out there, but the wonky knees always killed it for me. This is bringin it back!

I'll be following this with interest, I really like what you did with Trypticon. I'm also liking what I'm seeing on Metroplex. As Autocon has mentioned, in a few others the knees haven't quite worked IMHO and how you've handled them here keeps the G1 Metroplex asthetic while retaining the articulation.
The key to the past is in the present
