    That is a good looking Metroplex. I’d like to see it upscaled to Titan size though. Maybe not the same as the Hastak Metroplex but closer to Omega Supreme might be good. It’d work better for me, both to fill the Metroplex gap in my collection and having it at a better size for Diaclone.

    Just been to Star Wars Celebration in London today, no MGS on sale but got to meet the brand manager, was given a freebie blind box by him which was the escape pod and got to see and handle a really amazing looking AT-AT and Imperial Shuttle in person.

    https://twitter.com/MicroSquadron/status/1644387837482024961?t=1ce6bIYrjF-mjHG6kGinzQ&s=19

    https://twitter.com/Fort_Markimus/status/1644381632239894528?t=3zKkEQ4E0j7FeRycScm5zg&s=19

    These are both series four, AT-AT is the second Assault Class release after the Millennium Falcon, the price is going up to $60 but we are getting an incredibly well made toy for that and five figures plus a speeder bike (I believe, exact contents to be confirmed).
    The AT-AT has a lot to like, it's big, super detailed/accurate with ratchets in the legs at the hips and knees. Two buttons for sound effects with shooting, stomping and speech from ESB. There are lights in the interior and the red thing at the front of the machine.
    The cockpit has two seats with the captain's standing position behind, the neck moves with a clicky sound.
    Almost all of the main body is usuable interior space with two decks at the front with ten troop seats on the top, a command level below with computer screens and a winch that can swing out to lift up the speeder bike which can be stored in the rear section with space for four speeder bikes.
    Finally there is a second string winch in the underside and you get a Luke in pilot suit with lightsaber to ascend and blow the hell out of it.
    They've packed in a hell of a lot and it really felt good quality even though it wasn't a finished production copy.

    The shuttle is also big with huge ratcheted wings, a big cockpit with six seats that actually have space between them too. There's also an interior space in the back with a chair for the emperor and banks of seats at the sides.
    Max was telling me that they managed to get the scale for this one to be almost 1:1 to the figures and I can believe it, the interior looks fantastic.
    You get landing gear and moving guns too of course, finally it has a boarding ramp but it is just for show, they couldn't get it to be open at the top without causing engineering problems.

    More reveals to come for the further three days of the show but I was only there today.

    Definitely grabbing these and adding em to my already large collection of these magnificent vehicles.

    Edit: added pictures of the Tie-Bomber and Y-Wing.
    Also, I need to photograph and upload my collection so far!

    Yeah the Star Wars and light year stuff doesn’t do it for me except that light year buggy and truck. Maybe the mando micro turrets too.

    Those were the only Lightyear things I didn’t regret buying. Just like the MGS stuff, most of the Lightyear ships didn’t fit with what I wanted for my collection.
