Thanks to Amazon Japan :)
On first glance, he's missing his fusion cannon? But the artwork had it so i'm theorizing that his swords join together to form it... I'm glad it's more of a departure from Alternity Prime than i was expecting!
Man that would make an awesome Bludgeon repaint.
It's a real stretch seeing the buckethead of Megs in that particular car mould...
Looking good. The price and size isn't though
Looks pretty good, the chest and shoulders area look a bit funny, like his shoulders are too far back, I think it would look better if his arms came out from where the wheels are and the wheels were behind the shoulders or on the forearm, like BT/ALTs..
But apart from that looks pretty sweet and will definitely be picking it up sometime down the line
Based on those protopics - with the sword and skirt - he looks like a samurai warrior. :)
he'd have to look pretty amazing in final colours to be even a consideration...
I really hope the engine blocks stuck onto their heads are as easily removed as his fusion cannon appears to be. Pity it's such a dull looking car, hopefully it will look better painted up in enamels.
Car looks a bit strange but the robot mode... he has swords! :D
I second that!Quote:

Or the fact that Megatron was a car (Porsche) in Generation 2. At least this time he has a more traditional looking Megatron style head.Quote:

Furthermore, G1 Goodbye Megatron had a sword (as do all G1 Megatron reissues) - so it makes sense for the Japanese market. The dual sword thing is also a kinda cool nod to Animated, but that might be a purely unintentional coincidence.
I've actually got that book from my childhood & at that age, I can recall wondering why the cartoon Megs looked so different to the Megs in my book... :oQuote:
