Already addressed here:
Where was the judgment Christ promised at the Transfiguration?
Further, about a week after the Transfiguration, Jesus said this to the Sanhedrin:
“You have said so,” Jesus replied. “But I say to all of you: From now on you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven.” Matthew 26:64
Having said essentially the same thing to the Sanhedrin in Matthew 26 that He said to His disciples in Matthew 16 rules out the Transfiguration as the fulfillment of Matthew 16:27-28.
