    Default Planet X Apocalypse (FoC Trypticon)

    Posting this up as prototype shots are out for this monster bot, the beastly Planet X Apocalypse (aka Fall of Cybertron Trypticon)!

    From Planet X's Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/planet.x.un...81742455226236
    Hello All,
    Planet X "Apocalypse" will be released in Set A and Set B, expected to release 1 month apart, release date not confirmed yet.
    Require both sets to combine into "Apocalypse".
    Hope our fans appreciate our effort on this, very difficult fan-request project with less profit margin, much easier effort to create 5 to 6 characters instead, but our team determine to finish this monster for our fans sake! Hope everyone will enjoy this!
    More info will be updated later!

    Interesting that it'll be split into 2 sets.
    I've not played the game so I've no idea what kinda base he transforms into.
    Hoping that this is massive!

    Orbital cannon. But we don't actually see the shape in game, so could look like anything

    In the games he turned into a cannon as said and a big boring space ship.
    We didn't see a base mode, but before he transforms, he was in some sort of dormant state, you play whole level inside Trypticon, so that was the closest to base mode.
    I'm guessing this toy will do its own thin, as never saw the exterior of Trippy con in the games in his inert state all at once, just bits at a time during the level.

    Same deal in the optimus level where you reactivate metroplex.
    But no official base mode in the games.

    Actually I'd like to see this turn into the Nemesis... That was a sweet design...

    His arms are just a little too big IMO... undoubtedly this is in line with the game but i kinda prefer the G1 look a little more for ole Tryppy.

    One of the things u liked about TFPrime.
    Any figure that comes with swords demands wrist articulation.

    actually... you did see Metroplex in the opening vista of the first level you play as Prime, and later on in that mission on Grimlock's display too... (Yes I have played this game far too much)

    And I first saw the Nemesis in FOC... I wonder which came first?
