Toy Review - Generations Cybertronian Megatron

[Tetsuwan Convoy]

Does the gun barrel detach?

Left and right arm mountable as well.

Blad vehcile mode, slightly limited movement in robot mode, but robot mode just looks frikkin coooool! Don't regret buyinh one bit!

Seige mode.



Gerwalk mode?

Boom-chicka-waa-wow!

Love this mold, but I could say that about all the WGC figure. Awesome megatron cannot recommend highly enough.

Ha haaaa! Here is a good spot for these pics...

I got bored with his blandness and went over him with my Gundam marker and the results came out pretty good. this was my first time using this pen too. I didn't want to got too overboard with it. I attempted the back, but there is too much there and I think it would lose the effect.




I like this figure more and more every day. The power of the bot mode rawks!1

oh thats an interesting idea, but your inking seems a bit feint.

I personally want to improve my Megatron by adding 2 more of his arm cannons as he is conveniently able to attach it to his left arm too. but i guess 1 more on the back is a bit overkill.

the problem is what to do with the left over megatrons....

It is the first time I used the markers ever, and the lines to getthe pen in are a bit thin. I am not too sure I would want to go much darker anyway as I didn't want the lines to become the focus point. Maybe I will darken them up, I can always grab another body if its too much, but for now it ok.

Looking forward to this one, my only concern is his little lady hips.

Got this guy today... went in knowing i wouldn't like the Alt mode (breaking one of my purchasing rules while i was at it) ... but tbh i don't mind it, at least in hover mode. The treads don't lock in as a tank, and look flimsy and stupid. At least he holds together better than Animated Blitzwing which he kinda reminds me of. I think it can pass as a legitimate Megatron alt-mode considering the history of tanks/gun emplacements, moreso than Animated Megatron's flying blob.

Robot mode is where it's at though! He's just really nicely designed aesthetically.. great colours (i actually like the plain white/grey, creates a nice contrast), good proportions, very menacing. Not perfect as a toy though - his chest is loose and his cannon likes to pop off a bit easily. I don't understand how people who design transformers all day (some excellent ones at that) can overlook non-locking in chestplates and barely clipping on guns! His backplate afterall clips in very solidly!

Overall recommended!

I am clearly in the minority here but I am impressed by the plastic quality and paint apps on this toy. The white is solid with a nice mat finish - We could have easily have ended up with a crappy thin (almost translucent) 'Alternator' white or a Hasbro swirly cheapo grey but instead we have a solid color. The red metallic paint also looks really nice.

When I stand WFC Prime next to Megatron, Prime is the one that looks KOish. I have grown to gradually dislike WFC Prime's paint finish so I may end up getting the superior Japanese release and flog the Hasbro one.

I wouldn't call the hover tank mode a 'third mode'. It's the tank mode in hover function just like in the game - The tracks are for speed function, kind of like changing gears on a car.
