    what the fuck kind of titan did i just stumble upon? 122 cm? that is taller than a small child. transforming this is probably better than going to planet fitness. also what is the projected price estimate, seeing as they havent opened PO

    Haha welcome to this thread, it's an adventure here. And honestly you know as much as everybody else already. As for price, expect to hear a lot of "they said under a thousand" and a lot of "there's no way they can do this for under a thousand." Other popular sentiments include "this looks awesome, can't wait to see it for real" and "yeah this is never coming out."

    I think the general consensus is that the gentleman that is LikeToys, made this for himself, and that the Lionel Hutz guy from the Facebook group was trying to say that this was going to be for sale and that he was a part of LikeToys. It came out that all Lionel Hutz is, is a middle man that buys the figures from LikeToys for other people, like a Taobao agent. Bottom line is, I think this is just a one off. There are videos on YouTube of him putting it together and transforming it. It actually looks really cool.

    Lionel Hutz is a cool guy with an even cooler car. That's what really matters.

    It's still all just 3D printed. I see nothing that looks like there's any work done to prep it for injection molding.

    I assume there's work being done but there's not much of that to show to fans

    Uhm, well, Lewin Resources has actually produced nearly meter tall TFs before in the form of their massively oversized knockoffs of MP10 Optimus Prime.

    So, if you really want a meter and a fifth tall Metroplex, I strongly encourage you to keep your eyes on the following project, rather than one that is primarily made of smoke and mirrors...

    Lewin Resources 120cm Metroplex

    Sir, they are simply living up to their name.

    The honesty at least is commendable. :rolleyes:
