That vehicle mode reminds me of SDF-1.  :thumb

well, what I did was I pull the shoulder forward in vehicle mode so the front wheels and the wheels on his arm are closer, making it more 'belivable'.

Thats what I did.

 

Honestly though I like the vehicle mode.  I hated it in pictures and made fun of it more then anyone, but when you see it in person it's not too bad. 

 

I really like his "work mode"  In my head I think I'll see him more as a Super Hero Transformer.  He is work mode most of the time and no one gives him a second thought, but then he gets his ax, and Transforms into his super poseable robot mode.  No other Transformer knows his TRUE identity.

 

Yes I'm pathetic.

so basically you see him as a cybertronian he-man?

Yes thats exactly what he is. haha!  He-Metroplex

Cybertron Metroplex transforms into a "Federal Pound-Me-In-The-Ass Prison".

I've got some ideas to improve on some of the alternate transformations for Metroplex. I'm adding a few little accessories and what not and the end result should be a helluva sight. If I should ever do any of the detail work and repaints that I have in mind for this, I think it could even be incredible.

 

I've even gone so far as to start thinking up an addition to his bio.

 

This is a rough idea, I'll write a better sounding one later.

 

Metroplex is a bot of many talents. While constructing magnificient cities is his passion when called upon in times of war he is one of the Autobots greatest weapons against the Decepticons.

 

One of his most unique abilities is to transform himself into the ultimate defensive battlestations that can conform to just about any kind of terrain or strategic need. Partnered with some of the most powerful minicons the mere sight of Metroplex in full armed battlestation mode strikes fear into even the strongest of the Decepticons.

 

 

Well, that's the teaser. Hopefully I'll get around to putting everything together and getting some cool pics to post.

:pfx to the 100th degree.

 

He doesn't even look like a sex position when he's in hand and TFed. 

 

I mean, for 40 bucks, just keep him in work mode and Globetrotter mode if you're gonna Starscream.  But then again, we are collectors.....There's always something to Starscream about. :thumb
