Witness Transformers: Fall Of Cybertron's Metroplex
Transformers: Fall of Cybertron released last year, and the game was filled with fantastic depictions of the Autobots and Decepticons. In fact, those versions of the characters looked so cool that Hasbro has continued to release new Transformers figures inspired by the game.
The upcoming Metroplex figure draws inspiration both from the character's appearance in Fall of Cybertron, as well as his original 1986 toy. When in robot form, the over two-foot final figure is the tallest Transformers toy ever released, inching out the mammoth 1987 Fortress Maximus. Metroplex can turn into a wheeled aircraft carrier style vehicle, as well as a city mode to serve as home to smaller toys. However, the towering robot mode is certainly the most exciting.
A version of the new figure released at this year's San Diego Comic Con, but the wider public will have a chance to snatch him up beginning in August.
All in the name of good fun, we've put together footage of Metroplex from Fall of Cybertron, and combined it with a time-lapse look at the new figure being transformed. Enjoy!
