Cant wait for that Metroplex!

Was that a Silverbolt in the pics as well ?

[sifun]

silverbolt looks pretty bland. Onslaught looks pretty much the same as the american one, are you guys sure theres a difference between releases?

[Pulse]

& we have to wait 'til October for these Ultras...?! :(

Atleast we have plenty more Classics 2.0 figures to keep our wallets empty until then... :)

Very nice, looks like that's a confirmation on gold on Silverbolt.

Edit:

what's the circled part on Metroplex's tank?

[MV75]

A post so you can take it off the tank and use it as a tower in city mode. Look closer to where you'd originally put the antenna instead. ;)

EDIT: I also notice no helipad stickers in city mode. I hope they just forgot to apply them.

Wasn't that always the case? Or is this a new mod? My Metroplex is in storage so I can't confirm.

[MV75]

New mod. ;)

It's the first time Metroplex has been reissued since 1986 so it's pretty special... :)

(fingers crossed that we'll also get an E-Hobby Metrotitan ;))

Btw that tank's name is Slammer. :)

That's because they're USA Edition (i.e.: Universe), not Henkeis. :p

Yes yes, and there's also six gun and scamper.

Anyway, why do they call it usa edition? They're clearly painted differently and are nothing like the Hasbro versions.

USA Editions often have some variations to the Hasbro version. Article (http://transformers.wikia.com/wiki/USA_Edition)
Sorry if I implied otherwise.

Yea, this is the part I don't get. They change it and call it the USA edition. Why? Just because of the box it comes in? So the difference between these and Henkei is that these are imported, redone, and reboxed and called USA editions while the henkei are severly redone and put in different boxes?

I'd say that the Henkeis are generally marketed towards kids whereas USA Editions seem to be marketed more toward collectors.

SCAMPER!! Been waiting a while to get one again and now I finally can.

[Robzy]

These all look so nice! Can't wait for Metroplex!!! I actually really like the colours of this Silverbolt... the white head, the lack of fluro orange, and the white scheme instead of grey!

[Lint]

This stuff looks great! Look forward to seeing metroplex on the market.

[autobreadticon]

Greenish onslaught, red powerglide and whitey silverbolt looks great, Metroplex looks awesome1!

[MV75]

I'm genuinely surprised at the amount of people that didn't know about metroplex.

And Zippo knows the score. Scamper is the best part of the entire set. :cool:
