Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

I feel sorry for all the TRU employees working customer service in the morning. Yet another highly anticipated piece has been spotted on Canadian shelves. Generations Titan Class Metroplex has been purchased at a Toys R Us in British Columbia.

Let us know when you find the newest Transformers in your area by posting in the Canadian Transformers Sightings Forum.

Do we have definite confirmation that TRU's Metroplexes have gimped electronics?

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

and for that matter, are the loose joints still an issue?

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

I thought somebody on here was telling us it would be an online exclusive only, because it was to big for the shelves lol.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

It's not that the joints are loose per say, it's just that they could use a bit more spring tension. There's a tutorial on Youtube that shows how.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

I guess we just can't trust any toy's r us employee.... But it is great that they r showing up at retail!

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

lol i knew there wasn't going to be any issue with metroplex being in the stores. even if they didn't have space on the shelf theres always storage space. how many dotm ultimate primes did you see in your local tru? thats a pretty big figure as well and i saw plenty. i think people were just scared not to be able to get one. also this isn't a tru exclusive, so means other places such as walmart or target might also carry them. having said that, i got mine early as well :P

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

oh ya I knew all along this would be in store , I have inside info from a tru employee , the info can be verified by a western Canada mod.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

awesome

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

looks trilingual

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

Inside info from a tru employee means less then squat unless they work at head office or the warehouse.

I use to work at tru and they don't tell their employees shit or they tell them total bs. And managers know less then the floor employees and read my first part of this about how much they know ;)

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

Is Metroplex on for 25% off? Was that in BC last week tho? Anybody know the price? Wonder if it will be another MP SW fiasco.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

W00T!! "Online only" from some "insider info"? Ha!

I slept on the recent sale before the link went down, hope another one pops up as Metro hits my local store shelves.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

What's the retail going for this guy again?

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

I think it's $139.99

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

just now I saw someone sell this on Kijiji for 420, it might be a different version, but still too much

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

I think that is the SDCC version.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

Lol that's way too much, they were selling it at the expo for 300 and Ithink the hk one is the same price

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

Sorry, I thought you meant the Hasbro version from TRU.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

So is Metroplex a TRU exclusive or will he be showing up at other retailers as well?

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

it should be on sell in other retailers. i don't know when though

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

lets hope it shows up here before there all sold out cant understand why they are not released everywhere at once like in the past hope it isn't another mp 10 screw up

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

Too big for shelves? Hahah. Just build/rebuild the display arrangement with the large box in mind. Done. :D

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

They can also display it in the hallway, too.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

Hopefully this means my TRU pre-order will be shipped soon.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

so anyone knows whether it still talks or thats been taken out like some ppl say...

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

its gone, all it makes is weird transforming noises

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

150$ figure and they stinged out on the batteries too :banghead:

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

Too bad you'll still get charged that 40 cents.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

This is what I want to know.

Probably the same person who has been going around saying that "he knows" that the electronics have been neutered because "someone on the board" got one way ahead of everyone else and told him so, but he won't say who that "someone" is.

Because they're fictional and don't exist.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

well I got my Metroplex from TRU (tri-lingual packaging) and after putting in the batteries all it does is make some crummy noises. No words at all.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

Wow that's a major turn off for this toy.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

Once again the whole country gets screwed by Quebec.

Well that kinda sucks. Not too much for me though since I likely would have taken the batteries out anyways. And I'm still not sure if I want this one or the Hong Kong version.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

I really wanted the "Metroplex heeds the call of the last Prime" sound. Of all the sounds and lights and gimmicks, that single phrase is all I would have been happy with.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

no talk at all.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

So glad I didn't preorder him now. Going to hunt down the US version I guess. Stalk Amazon.com around Christmas maybe.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

He's available for preorder on bbts for $110usd

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

shipping is the issue here....

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

I wonder how hard it would be to replace the electronics with a really small and really cheap MP3 player. You could pop in all of the Metroplex soundbites from FoC in that case. Among other things.

I mean, the figure certainly is big enough.

If I open him up to tighten to joints, I might as well upgrade the sound.

If I manage the MP3 thing, I'll do my best to make a tutorial.

Re: Generations Titan Class Metroplex Released at Canadian Retail
 

And the risk of taxes. I have some other stuff I need to get from BBTS in the coming months so maybe that's an option. If they are easy to find across the border I may do that.
