Anyone else notice that the camera was focused directly on Six Sigma's groin when Vangelus said "Here's something that makes me happy!", then his thumb on the crotch, "This feels really solid!" lol! Great review as always!
Dear GOD! And I though Metroplex was impressive enough on his own. The only thing he was missing was his partner Sixgun and this figure blows it out of the water. Six Sigma really is the Sixgun homage that Metroplex deserves. Great review as always.
Hey vange1us, do you think that a coat of floor polish on the thighs' pegs would help the connection between him in tower mode and the 2 holes behind Metroplex in city mode?
WOW, Took me by surprise with this review of Sigma! Awesome review as well. I have to say that if the guns don't interact with the base or carrier modes, this is a pass for me. they could have done a better job on that "weapons emplacement" as well. He totally shines as Six-Gun...but that is all I'm afraid.
If I were you I'd make that end screen last a bit longer, like maybe another 10 to 20 seconds. It looks really nice but it went by so fast I had to pause the video to read it.
asdaasfasfa ALL OF THE 5MM PORTS ON MINE HAVE SPLIT OPEN. I even tried shaving down the posts on the tank and Metroplex's shoulder guns, and they STILL broke.
Sounds like you had some pretty bad QC issues, ive had mine for over a year and with quite a bit of transformation and 5 mm peg and port play, i have had absolutely 0 QC issues
So the Tower can't connect to Metro when he's in Robot mode and the Leg guns can't connect to the city or battle platform modes? That seems wrong to me. There should be uses in every mode for all parts.
+Dan Bacon I was just looking to bust out and upgrade my Metroplex after seeing all the cool DX9 and Iron Factory legends that are coming out (also the new Fort Max), and this was the exact thing that made me skip on this guy. Because he's not actually compatible with Metroplex in any of its modes.
I dunno man, I only have a strange feeling about the design of this guy. It's just that the torso and the thighs doesn't really match both the detail and shape design of the official toys. It's more like a Japanese robot design from the 80's more than a transformer, besides of the head sculpt. While I heard there is another sixgun from TFC, even though I think it's giant arms are a bit out of proportion, I kinda like that one better, because it has a strong guardian feel to it since that is what sixgun's character used to be according to TFwiki. This six sigma just look like a random soldier that will die so easily in the wfc games. Not enough character to me.
See, I saw this on BBTS and said "Meh", I mean it didn't look worth anything in the pics they have of it and the description was nothing, literally just saying which version of 'Plex it was made for. I figured for less than $90 and being a 3rd party figure we'd be lucky if it was the size of a deluxe. I see this review and now I must have him. Damn you, RUclips always making my bank account shrink and kicking my puppy...
Only in Vangelus's videos is throwing expensive toys at walls an essential part of a review.
@Johnny Milo Why would a bot think this 7 year old comment is a good place to advertise that?

I might have to get the red arm version since the product shots show the inside being painted black when in gun tower mode. Bit more detail.

I need this! Just wish I could get the tank now. Thanks for the vid friend.
Not bad. But I'm giving TFC another chance before I look at their next big combiner.
After all this time..... FINALLY. An outro. :D

RETRO LOOKING/ COLORS ARE AWSOME !!!

Really sweet man. I'd definitely get him if 1) I had a Metroplex, and 2) I wasn't broke.
***** lucky.
***** cool.
no place to attach the turret mode when Metro is in robot mode?
Sixgun was in the Cartoon???
He appeared only in one episode, "Thief in the Night"

Oh no the rob ford reference...

I love the DX9 guys and I also got the TFC guy. There's a way to build a tower mode out of the tfc version and set it up.
Dan Bacon I think I might to with that one. SLammer and Scamp look cool and playable, but a bit too small. We'll see.
So.. about that Patreon account, have you given it any thought?
The only real question is red arms or black arms...
Your ''toss'' hurts my collectors hart :(
Every time you toss a transformer(or try to make one float),I cringe.
When every he yeets a toy a very small distance, I smile
Are there any other figures that use 7mm ports and pegs?
SamuRaptor not that I know of
Where are my royalties? From Mr. Meat and Potatoes.
*Before and after's first and final peice.
Nice !!!!

This guy looks pretty snazzy.
Six Sigma Stands a Somewhat Suprising? TO MUCH ALLITERATION
he deserves the name of six *ligma*
Tfcs six gun deserves the name six *ligma* because he was garbage!

Autobot Six Gun
Shame that Before and After kinda vanished after this.
yeah :/ I really really dug their final(?) release Engineer General, and wish they'd been able to release the other big cartoony combiner figures
Well I got plenty of laughs from this one.
Eh I like gears of war version of sixgun more
Shake him like a baby!
Topical then and dated now.
