Maketoys take on Megatron

The choosenprime have good pics and is out on pre order.

So who wants this?

He looks a little chunky for my liking, like Megatron on steroids.

I'll stick with my Appolyon until TT come up with something better (yeah right)

Actually that's what I felt about Appolyon and this actually looks right.

Lol, funny how people see things completely differently. A side-by-side comparison would be interesting in the future.

[Smint]

I want this. Nice and beefy just the way i like them.

The thing is this version the gun also looks right.

Anyone seen the dx9 version? Ben's collectable has a video review on him already, minus the back pack and lack of waist swivel he looks pretty good. But still not enough for me to replace my Apollyon.

This maketoys version looks just as good as the dx9 version but they r adding their own twist to the g1 aesthetic much like their gundog, in which I'm not the biggest fan of.

so does anyone here know of any aussie retailers that are getting this guy in? are any of you guys setup with your licenses that would get an extra for someone else.

No, not that I know any who would bother for the amount of hassles. You just need to have the balls to buy one. You are probably afraid which is understandable however given that maketoys has made efforts not showing him in gun mode in any pics of their box and have excluded the silencer and extend stalk. It's probably going to pass right through.

You can pay someone in wa to buy it and send it to you otherwise .

There is a video review now

I wished I had more face choices but I am okay with it.

I was all "im happy with my Apolly but have a look at that Despotron! holy moly he looks fine with different faces and wot not....i want him"

And now im all "oooooh wow, look at what Takara has over in that corner"
