A fair point, then again how many Optimus (Optimi?), Bumblebees, Megatrons or Starscreams does the average collector own?

As everyone Said There is already an official Metroplex that does just fine, not spectacular but it does the job and is affordably priced enough. Had they done say, Trypticon, people might've been more drooling and throwing those "take my money" memes more.
Fingers crossed for a range from $200-300. 3rd party gestalts have commanded ranges higher than that - especially Feral Rex (but he's friggin' awesome). However, considering that city-formers have fairly simple transformations, or may even parts-form, I'd rather not pay above that range for what may turn out to be a heavy chunk of plastic (this is probably where Gen Metroplex was perfect).

Though Leige is probably right - considering how much Maketoys was asking for not-Nova Prime..
