Keeping an eye on Metropolis in the pool. Interested to see what people would put alongside it in the six.

Eimear, i am following this thread for exactly that reason. Happy to hear a few different opinions.

Metropolis is one I am weighing up. Leaving a boost while I decide. The hard bit is narrowing the list down to just one.

Cian, that is what I like about a shortlist. It makes me stop endlessly browsing and actually choose.

For anyone considering Metropolis: Would love to hear a different take too. The interesting picks are often the ones people split on.
