    Hi, great pics of Trypticon. So excited! Could you make a pic of him with Metroplex when Tryp is as his biggest (20+ inch). And please make pics with him compared with Metroplex in City mode! Very curious about that size. As well as Nemesis and Battle platform of Metroplex. Thank you. Kind regards from the Netherlands.

    Your wish is my command....

    A picture speaks 1000 words... so here's a 6000 word review!

    ....oh and some points not in pics... ~160 stickers.... and Full-Tilt is bigger than Mindwipe!

    OMG it keeps getting better and better.

    I try not to request pics..but im goin crazy to see what kind of "interior" or inside space there is..is it a command center in addition to his gut? I see those lil door and that looks so awesome to me.

    ooh..and your pic of trypticon in base mode..can the purple "toes" fold down for "bridges"??

    Hot damn I love base bots

    and what the last pic of?

    Fold down... yes... make effective bridge... would have to check, but maybe only kinda.

    Nothing inside the "doors".... although haven't totally checked it out... just a pass through like G1 Max had (Minus the elevator of course)

    And nothing of real detail inside the chest... just one platform for the "food" to fall too... and another below but un-linked

    Secret fact i should have taken a pic of... there are 2 Titan footpegs just behind the mouth cannon... perfect for Silverbolt (From Broadside) to sit on and recreate the "The Ultimate Weapon" scene

    Last pic is the Tail bend... never knew it was there till i had him in hand

    Nice. Seeing that fully extended leg makes me want a top hat and cane on Tryppy even more.

    YES he does! Loving it.

    Someone here mentioned Metroplex choke holding Tryppy.

    Thanks for the pictures guys and I appreciate it but I agree that Tryticon is too small - he looks like Metroplex's pet. That being said, I'm still keeping my pre-order but if a 3P company upsizes him, I'm going to pick it up and replace this.

    Thanks! Really love the ship mode.

    It does't look like you've got the same warping problem with Full-Tilt that the first reviewer had, is that correct?

    I did have some issues. The second clear plastic piece wasn't inserted fully in the left side, so the left panel of torso wasn't in the right position. Quick bash on clear dropped it into the groove on left panel.

    Problem with this was the lower left hole/bump combo on the panel wasn't in place, and when I was opening the entire panel fell off (Full-Tilt ships attached, with Necro inside FT.)

    The top where OP had trouble needs a little force to make sit flush, but no issue once you whack it.

    LOL! Yeah all I'm hoping for are some decent 3P add on's to make him more menacing while standing next to Metro and Ft Maxx.

    I kind of find hilarious that Trypticon is like some drill instructor barking orders to both Fort Max and Metroplex, while the both of them are putting on a straight face of how short Trypticon is.

    im not really seeing the fuss for his size. I think is pretty good. of course we all want a 3 year old child size trypticon. but for what hasbro is producing, im happy with the size. personally if I think back at G1 ( I was a lucky kid who had Metroplex AND trypticon) I thought metroplex was too small as a kid.

    everyone has their own expectations and tastes, but I still feel Hasbro is going above and beyond by even putting this guy out.

    I would LOVE to see hard numbers of sales to see how many of these get bought for kids, and for adults.Im betting its only 10-20% that kids will actually want this. I may be wrong, but I feel this is a collector line, and this is a nice release.

    CANT EFFIN WAIT to own this dude.

    @Krayt can you recreate Metroplex and Trypticon's battle in FFoD part 5?
