During the start of the battle station mode transformation, the audio overlaps. It isn't like that in the edit and for some reason every time I upload it it does that so I guess YT thinks it should overlap so oh well. Pain
I used a tutorial to make my own purple and red Metroplex out of LEGO. I call him Microcity since, despite being pretty much a recolor of Metroplex, he's as tall as Studio Series Grimlock
My copy plays the voice phrases such as "These Decepticons scatter like cowards", "Metroplex heeds the call of The Last Prime", "Target synchronization initiated", "Target obliterated", and "Till all are one".
i live in asia. my copy i think was one of the painted ones he mentioned, came with 2 of the red guns. it had voicelines i recognised from the game, and a few of the noises as well from what i remember. sold it off a while back though
So funny story about mine. I was looking for one, but the prices were insane. I basically gave up on it. Out of the blue, my buddy calls me up telling me he found one for sale. Place was asking for $200. He was missing everything and he was in rough shape. His thumbs were missing, his head was messed up, a plastic piece was broken at the bottom of his foot, and he had crayon streaks. It took a lot of work, but I was able to fix him up greatly. I got both his DNA Design upgrade kit, AND his Unique Toys upgrade kit, which was not easy to get. Terry from Terry's TFS Club hooked me up by buying one he found for me, and I just paid the cost he covered, which was something never done. I am eternally grateful to him for that. Anywho, I was able to get everything for him. Including the little plastic set that came with the SDCC set! I have all the 3rd party and official Six Gun, Slammer, and Scamper figures. I feel like mine has a story, and I love every part about him! Great review of him!
The previous owner bringing the red gun in after they found it is clutch. Lots of people wouldn’t even bother. That’s how you know they valued this toy and want whoever has it next to experience what they did with the toy.
A big impressive figure much in need of a Modern Titan redo. Really gotta love that finger articulation. Okay, this is the first time I've seen Cyberteon Metroplex next to Tidal Wave and didn't realize he was scaled that much shorter. I can see why the price is steadily dropping on Amazon.
I bought this guy at Costco years ago on sale right before Christmas for $75 brand new. He's still sealed in box out in my garage in a tote. It's crazy how much he's being sold for on eBay right now. If I hold out maybe in a couple of years I can trade him in for a house
Speaking of Fall of Cybertron, I would've loved an actual FoC-accurate Metroplex, cause I just love the proportions of that version. The classic FoC bulk really works to sell his size. Plus, his alt mode's probably the most convincing "building" a metroplex has ever been, so much so that I didn't even notice him in the background of the prime level the first time I played it. I know there were prototypes of a 3rd party FoC Metroplex a while ago, I wonder if that'll ever come out.
So a couple things: The helmet on your copy is attached the wrong way, and I think your audio chip is also busted. I've had this original version of Metroplex for years and there are voice clips that play when I press my copy's button. But great review regardless!
@@OptimusPhillip the sound clips gets cycling the same first two noise sounds when the battery is low. My has the same problem when it is time to change batteries.
That G1 cartoon Metroplex is my favorite Transformer and goes amazingly with Legion and Core class. I wish we could bet a tripticon that scales with metroplex
That's the OG of all Titans. You are lucky to have found one that is not all messed up for the price that you did. Be grateful. The aftermarket is what it is because for a mint one and a new one is the collectible value that itnis the oldest Titan and the first one and the G1 that everyone wants.
You're very lucky on getting him as well getting his gun, i still got mine and while it does do a lot of sound effects he does say some words like someone already posted but you have to cycle the sounds a lot. However what is more important is that the electronics are working, they're a lot of people that had issues with their copies which for some reason they wouldn't work at all.( luckily mine work just fine) Still got mine, it has yellowed a bit but their is nothing one can do about it since its the nature of the white plastic to yellow overtime, I might try to do the hydro peroxide treatment asap before it yellows far to much. As for the sticker they already started to rip and tear so i might try to get reprolabels stickers for him.
This plot does NOT match up with the plot from Transformers General 1 Season 3 at all! We know "Autobot City" was created on Earth sometime between 1986 to 2005. This refers to the Autobot City we saw in Transformers: The Movie that has a City mode and a Battle Station mode. This likely does NOT refer to "Metroplex." The "Robot" mode called "Metroplex" was apparently built after Autobot City was extremely damaged in 2005 by the sneak attack of the Decepticons. This is why we've seen Metroplex as "Part Of" Autobot City in 2006 during Season 3.
I absolutely love that shot you use of the three of them standing together. You've got Cybertron Metroplex, and you can feel the dynamicness about him. Then you've got T30, who commands presence by just standing there. And to the side you've got the original, who is just a big little dude
Getting him for regular titan class price is a *steal*. I like to keep Scamper in the turret on his shoulder. Slammer fits perfectly into the chest compartment. I have one of the Japanese versions with two of the red guns. It’s epic to have one as the shoulder cannon and a second one for him to hold.
I got lucky with someone selling one of these on a collector group I’m on, he did me a deal and included extras (the kingdom tank guy and the one that turns into a red gun). When he arrived I realised that he was so dusty and it was caked everywhere. It took 3 microfibre clothes and 2 cans of compressed air to clear. I then bought the DNA hands (showz), a set of lights (TFSafari) and Bingo toys Windblade (she’s not the “correct” scale but looks great sat on Metroplex’s shoulder. This is my grail and I’ll die on that hill.
I don't know if you care for addon kits, but the DNA Designs hands and Red guns for Brave Maximus are nice. They both were recently reissued and I have them on mine. I am still hunting the red X2 Toys gun for mine.
I definitely remember that there was a version with voice clips and i think it was the SDCC version, as the one I got was the main retail release and he just makes noises
@@RodimusMinor1987 oh wow I looked it up in the tf wiki "The version released in various multilingual packaging variants (notably in Canada and the UK) has a different soundbox, omitting all of Metroplex's voice clips. " that is bad...
I can’t speak for the Metroplex, but I know one of the upgrade kits for the Fort Max comes with replacement ratchets for the upper thigh that give him some added clicks of articulation. I’m not sure if there was a similar kit made for Meteoplex, but since he’s a mold mate with Fort Max, maybe you can use the ratchets from that kit. Can’t confirm if it will, but just a thought of you’re looking to strengthen that ratchet joint.
Mine has gotten very brittle over time, the pegs that hold the legs together in the carrier mode snapped off. Half of the stickers peeled off too. I won't transform it anymore because I don't want it to break more.
I happened to pick up my Metroplex for reasons some month back. He's on top of a library with all the CW Combiners. I got on a chair, grabbed him by a leg to take him down and he promptly headbutted me sinche the knees just bent forward without warning... it WAS painful. Mine does talk, though.
i got this a while back and out of all the titans i own (the ark, the nemesis, trypticon, legacy metroplex and this) he's probably my favorite despite how simple he is compared to them, because 1 he's fucking huge and 2 he's clearly made to be fun and not made to be a collectable, like he's a walking playset which the others i own don't seems to try to be besides trypticon, he's got cool and dumb play features, and whats even cooler is the gun he comes with can double as a ship (and even looks like the frigates from halo)
I just had a great birthday two weeks ago and actually got the Legacy Cybertron Metroplex, it’s awesome. I did also get an original print run version of issue 6 from the G1 Transformers Marvel comic.
Yes this titan holds up! I have the Comic Con version with the chrome face and legs and TWO red guns! It is fantastic and the sounds do have voice recordings. Better than Fort Max! Only Scorponok comes close to this guy in the amount of fun you can have with it!
"Metroplex heeds the call of the Last Prime" is prolly one of the most kickass reinforcements have arrived lines in fiction. 😅 I really hope Hasbro does a Metrotitan redeco of Metroplex, and redeco TR Fort Max as a Legends Titan RiD Brave Max.
as a guy who is really not a fan of these city modes I’m impressed on how good these look, like they look like what they were intended and not like a man lying down…and of course its on a figure I’d need to sell my kidneys to even THINK about getting the money for it
I couldn’t find anyone else who made this comment, but, there is a way to fix the way the helmet looks. A lot of the copies of this figure came misassembled, it’s a extremely tight fit and with the aging of the plastic it might be a good idea to be careful. But, I was able to get the peg holes at the side of the head to fit in the slots on the inside of the head, just above how you have them in the video. I wish I could show pictures to better show what I mean. But, I was able to fix my figure’s issue with this. The helmet still slides over forward it is just a more tighter fit and it is likely the way that the figure was designed to work that way. Anyways hope this helps out in fixing that problem for those who have this guy and have this problem.
got a used hasbro one, as my 1st one... got the takara re-issue much later, still MISB. I got them all. all the titans at their retail price. including grand maximus and unicron. waiting for my tidal wave to arrive. Cool to have caught them all... but eats storage space pretty fast. 😅 guardian robot took a while because of the bloated price but when it got to 150, pulled the trigger.
This figure was so amazing at the time, despite some obvious shortcomings. If they take another stab at him I'd be REALLY interested. Not just a reissue. He needs ankle tilt so badly, plus the alt modes aren't very good.
My stickers aren't pealing at all, maybe they didn't stick them down fully when they applied them or something but I've had mine for years and other than being very dusty it's still mint. Also, mine says the "head the call of the last prime" phrase. As for Scamper, he's perpetually manning the gun on Metroplex's left shoulder. What i really want is an upgrade kit that gives him proper hand that i can also find...and my ratchets seem to be holding up as well, can easily get him in a squat pose and he'll hold it... I had no idea this guy is going for $600 on the market! Jeez
I got the Takara version of this and it's still great. I never bothered with "Notroplex" as it was too expensive for what it's essentially a poor man's G1 Metroplex and/or not as good as the original Cybertron/Galaxy Force version.
The Canadian release doesn't have the voice effects just sound effects because of language laws - they were in English only so instead of translating them to French, Hasbro removed them 👿
Man, could have bought this guy on clearance back in the day, but I didn't have room fir him at that time... Kicking myself for not buying him ever since
This is the one that got away, when i was young my dad and I never got a chance to pick it up, my only real regret as it is basically impossible to get.
This review is probably 10 years too late. Sure, it doesn't hold up to the newer ones in terms of articulation but man, I still remember when this released in 2014. Most, including the old school TF toy reviewers, were in awe. I have the Hasbro and the Takara versions, and if there's a figure in my collection that I'd part last, it'd be either version of Metroplex. To me, it stands the test of time, but I admit my bias due to nostalgia. This toy reminds me of my broke a$$ days as a college student and how cheap this was on retail in my country - a little under $100 USD.
I would love a G1 style titan Metroplex but they already used titan metroplex as a name on MegaloConvoy so I really dont see them making another titan metroplex. But Im not holding my breath because Ive seen bad odds overcome so many times in my life that 1 in 100000 is basically 1 in 50 so it could still happen

you also called him ultra magnus during your final thoughts by accident
"Metroplex heeds the call of the last prime" "Till are all one"
I read that at the same moment the metroplex dialog started playing
Its till all are one not till are all one

He said that and I immediately opened the comments to see if any one else noticed lol
was just gonna say XD
With the prices for SS 86 Magnus. I don't think he is wrong lol
I could see Hasbro doing a legit Titan Optimus Prime for the meme. Probably not an Ultra Magnus, though.

So I wasn't the only who heard it
@@awkwardgamer7759 nope lmao
I was confused for a sec there, I was like "ultra magnus??? WAT" I thought I had an audio error
This figure is definitely showing its age. I would love a new Legacy mold that more closely resembles his G1 appearance.
I would like one that does just sit Indian style as transformation and look like an actual part of a city (buildings/ towers)
Same here. This one just looks bad now. Especially with thay 3rd party one showing up recently. But that one is WAY too small.
I'm waiting for a Studio Series one that actually commits to the FOC look

I think it holds up I might buy it someday
This review is probably 10 years too late. Sure, it doesn't hold up to the newer ones in terms of articulation but man, I still remember when this released in 2014. Most, including the old school TF toy reviewers, were in awe. I have the Hasbro and the Takara versions, and if there's a figure in my collection that I'd part last, it'd be either version of Metroplex.
To me, it stands the test of time, but I admit my bias due to nostalgia. This toy reminds me of my broke a$$ days as a college student and how cheap this was on retail in my country - a little under $100 USD.
my brother has had one since 2013
it fell of a shelf and broke 2 months ago
pain
"Metroples needs the call of the last prime" ahh vid
Got mine from tfcon Toronto years ago for $110 lol And it's the acg version so like the sdcc but with different color decoys.
Beast machines tankor also has the moving eye gimmick
That is the coolest transformer I have ever seen out of a Titan
I would love a G1 style titan Metroplex but they already used titan metroplex as a name on MegaloConvoy so I really dont see them making another titan metroplex. But Im not holding my breath because Ive seen bad odds overcome so many times in my life that 1 in 100000 is basically 1 in 50 so it could still happen
So did you pay 2013 price or 700 eBay price
Metroplex is a great figure. I have the Japanese release so all details are painted in no stickers
14:19 what figure is the blue helicopter?
