    You're doing better than I am....my Micropolis went back in the box the day I had to trade space with the wife to have a pass for the Big Mill Falcon (that thing is a beast that takes up more room than My Fort Max) and now with Metrplex hiding behind the couch it's even less likely to come out again!

    I need a new house/wife i think.........must love Micronauts!

    I love some base bots, but I agree finding room is a pain in the ass. I have Fort Max on my desk but until I find a spot for him, Gen Metroplex is in bot mode playing peek a boo behind my 32" TV.

    Before long we'll have a house and I officially get to have a collection room again. I already have the Micronauts part planned out with a giant poster of a moonscape with Earth in the background that will be the backdrop :D 

    Just scored AMPZILLA, a piece I've been wanting since I was 7, now just Lobstros eludes me....

    Looks awesome man. I love what you did with Gen. Metroplex, never thought of doing that. More pics from other angles, please!

    Just... wow. I don't even want to know what these are lest I get tempted to get them.

    Autobot City! Our first and last line of defense against the Evil Decepticons!

    [​IMG]

    Humanity stands with out Autobot friends! Red Alert remains ever vigilant against the threat of Decepticon spies!

    [​IMG]

    The Autobot leadership discuss battle plans! Go get 'em men!

    [​IMG]

    Brave Autobot warriors patrol the perimeter! Be vigilant! Be pure! Behave!

    [​IMG]

    The runways thunder with the sound of constant flights taking off! The Autobot war machine rolls on!

    [​IMG]

    Autobot City, a busy metropolis! Some warriors even have time for illegal back street drag racing!

    [​IMG]

    But perhaps YOU can help with the war effort! Somewhere in these scenes lurk Soundwave and Ravage, two of the Decepticons spies! Can you find them?

    Red Alert needs a demotion then. Heh. Great stuff. Loving the look of the Reprolabel upgrades. I gave up stickering my SDCC Metroplex out of sheer frustration. Those stickers are the freaking worst! It's a real shame too since they look so nice.

    I have OCD when it comes to stickers. My Metroplex is the Hong Kong ACG version (basically the same as the SDCC one, but the minifigures are a different colour plastic) and I was trimming the oversize stickers to get them to fit.

    Which seriously sucks Hasbro. :rolleyes:

    Oh, I was trimming them too. They just don't stick for shit on anything that isn't a flat surface. I was even using alcohol and cleaning all the areas first. Started out okay. A couple days later, most of the ones that went around corners were all bubbled up around the bends. I quit at that point. I hope Reprolabels does the set and some upgrades too. Congrats on having the patience to finish the job!

    Trypticon could use some Reprolabels, preferably the upgrade set, but it's a great figure regardless. One of the prides of my collection.

    I only have Groundshaker, and the colors seem more vibrant on Landshaker.

    lol.

    guess this can go here as there are a ton of bases all displayed in base mode inside.

    My entire Micromaster collection, just got Skystalker back from Reprolabels, so for the first time since TFcon i have the whole thing in the same place at the same time.
