He does make Fort Max look...lanky, in comparison, which I didn't think possible. You can. Just slide the cover slip off (cutting any tape in the process) and slide out the cardboard piece holding the instructions and sticker sheet. He has no true "back" packaging so you can inspect both the front and back of SDCC Metroplex without actually removing himfrom the packaging. That's awesome!
i need to know exactly what lights are those attatched to the display unit and if that is a detolf.My god I need to do this with my SDCC.screw keeping it MIB if i can do this
Jeez those pics look awesome. It is almost ironic that Not-SixShot and this guy are released in the same month (if you read the Metrplex IDW spotlight).
You monster !!! Hes still under 4ft tall and should be in a childs car seat and in the back !!! You could have killed him !!!
If you guys have a choice to buy only 1.would you pick the Mp 10 tru optimus prime or the tf devastor?
TRU MP-10 is the best money I've ever spent on a Transformer. Prolly helps that I am a G1 Optimus fanboy, but that set is all kinds of epic.
▲ Man that display kicks all kinds of ass ▲ Here's one I took before taking the whole setup down. Hope it'll help give those who haven't seen him in person an idea of just how massive this guy really is...
Still can't quite wrap my head around that. Herc's already a freakin' monster in his own right, and he only comes up to Metro's waist. That's nuts.
Good job on the painting! Looks sweet! By the way are there any differences between the SDCC and TakaraTomy versions? I'm kinda confused with all these variants! X)
I need this toy in my life. So the only difference between SDCC and Hasbro vanilla is the chrome on the thighs and face and the extra gun? So what differences exist between Takara and Hasbro? Or do we not know?
Takara has different paint than hasbro (such as the thighs being grey/black and the center light having white around it instead of black)
Wow that is amazing- I'm late to the painted face party. I was disappointed that I didn't get a SDCC metroplex but now I'm quite happy because I think the painted face you did is much better than the chrome face. It looks more 'natural' and the way metroplex looks on the box art! Do I need to use the sealer or am I good with just two light coats of the testors aluminum plate?
