How about we continue the theme of using the Planet Map art for the Cybertron Planet leaders? Does anybody have a good scanner to scan in Metroplex's bio pic (drawn by Don IIRC)? My scanner is busted :( --FFN 05:00, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Monz sent me his scan of it, I just haven't gotten around to clipping the main art from the backdrop. I find incomplete text boxes behind art to be highly distracting. --M Sipher 06:24, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
Cool, I tried searching for a scan last night, managed to find one (and its more of a photo of the map). But the close up of Metro had a watermark over the top of Metro, so didn't feel right using it (plus it would look dumb). Oh, on a side note, I think we should replace some of the images seen here and there on this wiki that have the originating site URLs on them. The fact the pics are on here might annoy their owners. --FFN 07:58, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Work mode

Anyone got a better pic of Metroplex's Work Mode? This one's mistransformed. --Detour 06:52, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

Is it? The torso's shortened, the shoulders are slid forward, the legs are shortened, and the lower body's spun around 180 degrees. Everything seems to be in place. What do you see that's wrong?--Apcog 15:27, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
The lower body isn't spun 180 degrees. Only the lower legs are. That's the part that's wrong. Note the minicon ports are now on the inner part of his legs. --Detour 15:53, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

"Vehicle" Mode

Is it essentially just him bending over, in a, erm..."doggy position"? Or am I just seeing things?KrytenKoro 07:59, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

It's an easy mistake to make, but no, he's sitting down with his legs tucked up against his chest, not on all fours. His elbows reverse so his arms can support him.--Apcog 16:43, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Repurposing

Since this guy's alt-mode isn't anything like a building, base, city, or anything of the like, is there another character he more closely resembles? If it weren't for the head, I'd probably paint mine up like Omega Supreme. Still might if I can ever figure out a good way to scratch build one. --72.215.154.250 13:27, 21 February 2012 (EST)
