    I can appreciate that as a sort of massive exo-suit for Megs. If Hasbro did something similar, I'd be much more tempted by that than the grey hulk repaint we're getting. The mould itself is a good'n though.

    Nerfgun or real gun... Megatron is and will always be a gun to me! A tank he aint!!

    PS: I'm not a fan of this custom (if you didn't already guess)

    Well, he was a tank long before someone at Hasbro decided that bright orange psuedo-guns work as Transformer alt modes. So I can live with a tank.

    I'd rather Megatron as a menacing tank (cannon, plane, guard dog, whatever) than a Dayglo nerf accessory. I can deal with the fact that you like Megatron as a gun, but I just don't see a Nerfgun as a decent representation. He's meant to be the most evil guy in the universe (insert evil 80s cartoon laugh) and Hasbro relegated him to firing foam at 8 year olds?

    I don't blame Hasbro for the fact that US gun laws don't allow them to do the Megatron we know from 1984, but hey I do blame them for not portraying him as a cannon, a tank or... something... menacing.

    Fair enough. For me the idea (if not the mould) is a stronger concept for a Classics Megatron than what we got.

    I admire your passion Dirge!

    To be fair, I agree that I would rather see Megatron as a "real" gun rather than a toy gun - but I actually don't mind the Henkei/Classics mould! (although the colours on the Henkei version are the only ones I like)
