Metroplex (G1)
| This article is about the Generation 1 Autobot. For the Cybertron-series leader of Gigantion, see Metroplex (Cybertron). |
Metroplex is a city-sized Autobot from the Generation 1 continuity.
Metroplex is either the proper name for Autobot City or simply a region inside Autobot city itself. Either way, Metroplex is big. Crazy big. He isn't very talkative, but then, few cities are. He has a deep seated rivalry with the gargantuan Decepticon, Trypticon.
Fiction
Animated Continuity
Metroplex might have appeared in the movie, he might not have, it's hard to tell. Either way, he didn't transform into his robot form due to the fact that his Transformation Cog was destroyed early in the attack. As a result, if he DID appear, he was stuck in Base Mode.
After the Movie, Perceptor built a new Cog, and entrusted its delivery to Blurr and Wheelie. After numerous setbacks (including nearly getting killed by Galvatron and being stranded on Jupiter's moon Io), the Cog was safely delivered and inserted into Metroplex. Who promptly transformed and had a horribly animated battle against Trypticon.
