    Only if Metrotitan had 13 Gary Coleman quotes on it's voice chip (12 and a baby crying is acceptable)

    Only if you had the option of dressing him up as a cop

    Only if it comes packaged with a plethora of well written alt-lit feminist diatribes.

    After doing some research I have figured out who metrotitan is, and I think at most it should be a limited release, either ehobby or convention.

    After looking above I changed my mind to "general release everywhere" so it shelf warms and i can eventually get it for $20 and use the gun for my proper Metroplex. then i realised the gun would probably be white, so my revised single vote is:

    I get that Metrotitan is a bit obscure, but he did feature in the two IDW annuals last year so he shouldn't be too obscure. I guess the name being used as a generic term in IDW it does rob him of some individuality.

    I don't think the toy should be repainted as a general release. I personally prefer the big toys to be individuals (ala Hasbro) not one of 2 or more with the same base toy (ala Takara). But I do think that instead of the two current shiny Metroplex exclusives one of those should have been Metrotitan.
