    well as you can see here i,ve started to work on the rear of the legs because it,s a big factor in the robot,s and city,s stability... allot of detaillng and thrusters ....

    If your previous creations are any indication, we're all in for some seriously awesome eye candy here.

    I vote for cartoon accurate... but I don't really remember if that's two eyes or the visor. ;)

    well the reason metroplex will be so huge is because of the city mode... the sheer detailling on this one will dwarf anything i,ve done at this point... and i wont tell you all of the suprises this one will have.... you will see it for yourself at botcon 2007 (a good probability that i will be attending next year !!) let,s just say for now that you will be able to see the city in the dark and there will be movement as well !! as for the the cartoon acurate it,s with the visor.... and as for if it will be on sale..... well i would really be suprised if anyone ordered it because it would be VERY EXPENSIVE as you can imagine but the primary reason why i,m doing it is for the great challenge it presents !! and also metroplex has never been what he should have been.... a great autobot city !!!

    Well it certainly looks less heavy than the one made out of wood that showed up on the tfans board. Very nice.

    I think you should make the eyes like the original toy personally.

    This Metroplex is surely destined to be awesome.

    This is... potentially a thing of beauty...

    Also, I'd say go with the visor...
