The origins of this building were long forgotten, though legends remained claiming that it was once a capital during Cybertron's Golden Age. EX Metroplex was later tied up in special keep-out tape by Skids, who intended to send him and all other dimension-hoppers back to their home universes, though in the end he changed his mind and let them stay.
He was only available as a pack-in with the larger Metroplex toy, released first in the fourteenth wave of Takara's Galaxy Force line, and later in the third wave of Hasbro's Cybertron Leader-class toys. The Reluctant Specialist Legends claimed that he, Chela and Metrotitan had once fought alongside Primus himself, Origin Myths and he was said to have defeated the monster known as Trypticon and watched as it was sealed away in the depths of Cybertron. LG-43 Trypticon Project Chapter His injuries and loss of his cog rendered him unable to transform into robot mode during the Battle of Autobot City years later. After the threat was over, Metroplex was seen standing alongside his fellow Transformers on his new home, Earth. During the Decepticons' attack on the city, the transforming cog which allowed Metroplex to transform to robot mode was destroyed, preventing him from participating in the battle, although he was manually converted to battle station mode by the Autobots inhabiting him.
The Great Cassette Operation Soon after, Metroplex joined the Autobot Headmasters in traveling to Britain and New York to investigate attacks by a mysterious blackmailer. Due to him having a similar hand design to Optimus Prime, he can use Optimus's rifle, while Optimus can use his giant Sparkdrinker weapon.
A more than capable arsenal in the Autobot ranks, Metroplex doesn't care for his own safety and is more than willing to sacrifice anything if it means securing the victory for his fellow comrades in the war. With their planet now in danger, Metroplex and Quickmix realized that they needed to violate tradition to protect their world. When the Hate Plague swept the universe, Rodimus Prime realized the danger that an infected Metroplex would pose, and reluctantly decided to deactivate him. A rival Decepticon faction led by Weirdwolf attacked Metroplex for his transformation cog, intending to use it to rebuild Trypticon. After rescuing the alien scientist Doctor Dalton from the clutches of the Decepticons, the Autobots brought him to Metroplex for safe-keeping.In the other universe, Metroplex, Quickmix, and Menasor took a temporary leave of the other Autobots and piloted the Lemuria back to Gigantion to collect reinforcements. Oddly, the front and back of the packaging is lacking the Generations moniker, instead being simply branded Transformers. The Dead Are Not Enough The crew met up with Windblade's team, who had hidden Metroplex's brain module in his shoulder. To complete the Scramble City project, the Autobots moved their operation to a secret underground cavern, but the Decepticons' spy cassettes located the subterranean base, and an all-out Decepticon attack was initiated. At one point Metroplex was attacked by Devastator, Bruticus, and Predaking, though the three were driven off by Superion before they could knock off too many of the city's bricks.
Using a control device, Tarantulas then took control of Metroplex's body and used him to attack the Maximus, but Fortress transformed the base into Fortress Maximus and pierced the device with the Master Sword, freeing Metroplex from mind control. Finis Temporis As the Necrotitan was destroyed, Metroplex settled himself to continue recuperating, but soon an army of 70 billion Ammonites lay siege to Cybertron on Shockwave's command. Alpha Trion left with his old friend, as the two intended to combat Shockwave's mysterious machinations out in the cosmos.After the battle, he became Iacon's new capital by transforming into city mode over the ruins of the Citadel. Scourge came crashing out of Metroplex just as he transformed to robot mode, and beat a hasty retreat as the giant discovered that he was blind and went into a maddened rage, firing upon all the Transformers in the vicinity. It will be very interesting to see how Hasbro updates the combiner feature, if they do in fact combine (and why wouldn't they?
