    I second this, what were they thinking? A silver matt finish is better.

    Saying this, if it arrives in Aust, I don't think I have a choice and take whatever is available.

    Modifying topic to include the other Asian exclusive version of an SDCC exclusive.

    Similar to the Metroplex having some minor differences (well, the decoys are probably the only difference), the Shockwave Lab set has Predaking done in translucent dark yellow compared to the clear white & blue of the SDCC version. Shockwave appears to be the unchanged though.

    G1 Metroplex had a chromed face and thighs- later replaced with chrome thigh stickers. it's nothing new, we've seen it all before.

    Yeah no problem just a personal preference I would prefer if it was just a normal silver finish.

    Just got my ACG-con Metroplex. I can confirm it has the retail stickers not the SDCC metallic stickers. Given the problems people reported with placeing the metallic stickers I'm happy to have the retail stickers.
