    I think he'll stand well next to all my other MP figures. Aesthetically he is appealing to me. I am yet to be disappointed by a release

    I'm still waiting on a G2 version of MP-10 with the trailer airfoil, new guns & new Yaniger style head with optional battle damage, I know we can just swap the trailer from SG OP, but it's missing the pulse side decos and the blue components are too washed out for my liking - also no airfoil.

    As for MP-36, it's almost inevitable that we'll get recolours as US style Silver Megatron, Black Megatron & Megaplex, but we might also get UK Marvel Megatron (where the silver is more gold) and I'm certain there'll be a Lucky Draw/Golden Lagoon Megatron.

    For our younger members who didn't grow up with G1, the half gold half silver colouring on Megatron which Ark-Ivor speaks of did indeed appear in the early Marvel UK comics and was actually based on G1 Megatron's colours on his original box art. Perhaps they should call it Kaon Gladiator Megatron and include an axe and shield (similar to how Marvel US coloured MP Grimlock came with the crown).

    I'd say there would be a definite black megatron but i would also go as far to say that there will be homage to browning at some stage too.

    I'd love to see a reissue or separate MP Browning figure, but I fear that the character may be too obscure to warrant it. Of course, I'm also waiting for a reissue and MP version of Time Warrior, so...

    Is too much to hope for the Autobot Headmaster Jrs. while we are wishing for obscure Japanese G1 toy reissues?

    Why not a retool/redeco of the Real Gear watch Meantime from the movieline?

    Meanwhile I'm a worrier.

    I used to have a G1 Meantime!. Unfortunately Movieverse Meantime was only redecoed as another Decepticon (Midnighter XR-4). The sculpted Decepticon logo on the watch face/chest makes it impractical to redeco as an Autobot without retooling said portion. I would've loved a Movieverse Time Warrior though.
