    As noticed at the Brisbane meet yesterday, Megatron sorta has 3 modes. The hover tank in the first posting, and a tank mode (created by flipping out from underneath, the black tank treads, in that photo).

    It's barely a third mode. You flip out treads on the side for ground mode. Flip 'em under for flight mode.

    Yes. It's detached and reattached in both directions of transformation.

    Fantastic robot mode, really emphasises the menace Megs exudes. Alt mode is a little left to be desired, I do prefer it with the treads down for a more 'traditional' tank mode. Would be happy to replace my Classics voyager Megs placement on the display shelf with this one.

    The only problem I have is a manufacturing issue. The left shoulder of mine doesn't slot in all the way when converting to alt mode. Apart from that, love him.

    Looks nice, sculpting is impressive.

    The treads aren't nearly as token as I thought theyd be, they're a lovely touch.

    I had the same issue, but I have a fix for this. Lemme find where I posted it...

    Ahh, here we go:

    ...I thought it might be a bit of platic from the tree that hadn't been cut of properly, or a clearance issue, but I couldn't find anything. I tried forcing it but it wouldn't budge and I felt that I might be stressing some plastic somewhere. I thought, "Maybe they misassembled something?", so I took the arm apart, turned it around and tada! Perfect.

    So if anyone else has this issue, just unscrew the two screws in the middle of the back of his shoulder. Loosen the top shoulder screw (don't need to fully remove it). Then take off his arm, rotate the black shoulder joint bit 180 degrees, and put the arm back on.
