2013 Metroplex.. need opinion my fellow collectors

Hey guys,

I'm in need of some of your guys advice.

Looking to pick up the new Metroplex but don't know which version I want... the Retail one (if I can get one!) and or the SDCC Metroplex (can get one as they are available now)

Not saying price is an issue but considering I didn't have to go to SD or waste time waiting in line should it be a no brainer for the SDCC version?

Any input would be helpful - thanks!

Like you say, if money is no issue, go for SDCC version, at least that one comes with those mini figures.

Which mini figures?
Nevermind. Looked it up and I prefer the retail. Not a fan of chrome. Would rather paint him up myself.

SDCC one for sure. If anyone knows where to get one for a reasonable price, let me know!

That photo has the BotCon minis. The SDCC minis are gold and silver, I think.

Personally, I don't care much for the minis. The extra gun is basically the only thing SDCC Metroplex has for me, I just don't care fore the chrome thighs or face.
