    Default e-Hobby Metrotitan: would you get one?

    Well we all know that Metroplex is getting reissued as part of the Encore series... so the question is, if e-Hobby reissued Metrotitan would you get it?



    I'd get one in a heartbeat, regardless of Metrobomb. I already have Skystalker and Metrobomb isn't different enough that I would care if a reissue Metrotitan came with it or not.

    Only if I could sell it to you-know-who for $700.

    (Gok & Fungal know who I mean).

    Who Dirge?

    And no, I wouldn't buy it at all. The character is too obscure to me, I only know it by name and that it's a metroplex repaint. Same goes for the guardian robot.

    The guardian robot actually appears in English-language canon dude, and in the cartoon no less! They also appeared in the Canadian TF comics (known as Omega Sentinels). That's not really that obscure IMO (certainly not compared to Metrotitan).

    The body of a Guardian robot also appeared in the Australian convention TF comic "Prelude to Chaos."

    Nope, I don't really collect G1 tho.

    BTW: Do e-Hobby do reissues? Or is it only certain exclusives that they won't reissue...?

    Nice. Is this comic available online or anything?

    Is Mr McAvaney still active nowadays? Wonder if he ever got round to getting the Grand Maximus he was boasting about getting soon at the time.....
