... Well this is dissapointing, to find out that both QuickMix and Menasor are out, and I've not seen either. =/

Edit: And I probably won't, either. Although Voyager price point figs seem to move quickly, they are starting to get backlogged.. and don't even mention Ultras, where we've had more Red alerts and Dark Scorpinok's come out of the woodwork than I care to think about. i've only seen 1 Wing Saber and 2 Sky Shadows, after all.

Cyb Metroplex kinda reminds me of Ultra Magnus...

His alt mode stinks but robot mode is AWSOME!

Brute mode is cool and you can add tons of minicons or weapons to his multiple ports... Great bot mode. Lots of articulation and nice paint job. Could be more details painted, but ...

Metroplex should be a definate addition to your Cyberton Autobot forces!

In my opinion...both of their vehicle modes are jokes.

With Metroplex you got a bot that is basically bent over, and with Menasor you got a bot thats bent over and legs spread. Both are basically useless. Although the fact that Metroplex's alternate mode is loosely based in reality is a definite plus.

Metroplex is TONS of fun in robot mode though. You get a really nice 'brute mode" with a shorter looking bot...who looks really tough. Then you have the full-size tall mode, which is equally BA for bad@$$, and is really quite poseable.

Menasor is also insanely poseable...and definitely has that "Big O" feel as previously mentioned (I sense a kitbash possibility)

Menasor's minicon is insanely unique, I don't think we have anything like it...and it is also insanely "mini!"

Metroplex's minicon is beasically Leader-1 from Armada in disguise...a very weak disguise. The minicon is also not so "mini."

I say go Metroplex if you have the choice...and wait to see if Menasor hits the clearance bin. Althought the Decepticons are lacking in Cybertron.

If there were my options, menasor!

I'm glad these are not my options....

Menasor won't hit the clearance bins before all the CD Red alerts that are choking the aisles do.

AHHH that POS is the bain of my existance. It kept me from finding a Wing Saber for at least 4 MONTHS!!! (but I will buy CD Red alert whenever he goes on clearance).

I still say Menasor. I opened mine yesterday and it is a pretty cool figure.
