    Roflol! Google translate tells me this robot goes by "Sea Cucumber", and is "mighty handsome".

    That's the best Metroplex base mode I've seen to date. Wow. The main red guns look too large now, though.

    What's up with these new prices? Is that 4000+ USD, Int$, or Yuan the above linked sites are using? Presuming that's Yuan, that's over 600 USD!?

    Thanks. $137 US or so is much more reasonable.

    Well in any case this would put Trypticon in better scale, I guess.

    I actually really like this scale. I like Trypticon and Metroplex to be a bit smaller than Fortress and Scorponok, but I'll wait until I see an actual review.

    I wouldn't agree with that. Generations Metroplex is a good robot and a good city. Cybertron Metroplex, as always, has a really good robot and a really bad vehicle mode. The play factor is superior in Generations Metroplex for me, so a better toy in the end.

    this looks amazing, but def feel it needs to be bigger. id be happy if it was at least maketoys utopia height tbh. the problem with making a legends scale titan, is that the titans were already legends scale.

    OMP! has this listed for SG$184 plus shipping with a Q2 '23 release estimate. Puts it at about the same final cost, at least in Australia, as Generations was back when it was launched.

    that's definitely an ambitious price this new company has set. 10 times larger than a legends fig and less than most top tier legend leaders. you can color me sceptical to say the least.

    I forget where I saw it (perhaps I never did and it's a mandela effect, because I can't find it on the last two pages where alt-mode is shown) but I love the look of having the chest ramp going straight onto the right leg in city mode, rather than going to ground level. For some reason, it makes it more interesting. Nice to be able to have the option, anyway.

    Doesn't seem unreasonable if it's in the pangu/mft bracket.

    no it is definitely possible the margins on 3p bots are stupid crazy. so they could definitely pass that on to us if they wanted to. i am just surprised is all.

    Someone should make a Legends-sized Metroplex, so you can pair it with FansToys Fortress Maximus for Headmasters scaling...
