Toy Review: Generations Metroplex (all versions)

[Omega Metro]

On Tuesday my Tak/Tom version of Metroplex arrived; here's a couple of pics that might help to highlight some of the differences between theirs & Hasbro's releases :
(Please Note: I've not applied any stickers as of yet )

Looks a lot more colourful than the Poverty Pack version doesn't it? My only gripe with it is the white runway/road sections on the legs.

So Hursty, does the Takara version speak English?

You know I cannot believe that after all this, after SO much time wondering, I completely forgot to disclose this!

Takara-Tomy's - Generations: Metroplex does indeed speak in English.

Mot interesting indeed. now to deide if I get the hasbro version from Big W or spend nearly twice as much for better (robot) paint apps and a second gun.


BTW Willowcrew, Great review. thanks

Most interesting indeed. now to decide if I get the Hasbro version from Big W or spend nearly twice as much for better (robot) paint apps and a second gun.

I spent a LONG time saving up for the TakTom version (Close to 3-4 months) as I love big robot toys, but also because this figure will almost always remain in Bot mode - I went for the version that, in my opinion, would look the best in such a state.

The added gun was just a happy little addition.

BTW Willowcrew, Great review. thanks

Agreed! A very detailed & informative review indeed.

The stickers on this figure are just disappointing, i've lost a couple and I have only put them two hours ago and they are peeling off, even worse than takara's arms micron stickers. Anyone know where I get a new set of stickers? Does reprolabels have Metroplex stickers?

Reprolabels haven't got anything yet.

I have only put minimal stickers on my Metroplex, only in robot mode. I have put the knee stickers on, as it breaks up all the white there, the booster/rocket stickers on the back and the black ones on the top of him. Yet to have any issues with them falling off, will see what happens over the week.

Reprolabels set is now out. $35US, looks absolutely astounding.
