Id prefer a Masterpiece Dragon Megatron. Those tattered wings spread wide and a big red metal dragon looks so majestic on display it's what triggered me to collect at least all the Beast figures that appeared in the show - TM (better) version.... I didnt like the dinoskater version - plus I didnt want the hassle of dealing with BPS

Which one is the show accurate version of Rampage though - Takara's or Hasbro's? I got the Hasbro one and Im fine with it... havent really transformed it though in Tank mode... need instructions heheheh

Really I'd be happy with Masterpiece 'anything' Beast Wars

Don't rule out the TM Rollerblade Megs. If you're scared of GPS, get hold of the Takara version. He's too good of a figure not to have.

I think Takara Rampage is closer to the mark colour-wise. But still a bit off in spots.

Seconded!

I definitely agree here, Goki very kindly proved it to me 1st hand that the Takara Release is the superior product but if you're not intending to muck around with Hasbro's version a lot then you should be right.

Hmm, I don't know; I've always felt that the Hasbro version was way closer as the Takara version's silver paint apps are way off, that being said though it still is a stunning version of the figure/character.

I love Takara Rampage! Yeah, neither is one is perfect in terms of show accuracy (especially both faces), but I think takara is closer. Especially with the purple X (for protoform X) on the shell.

Very Envious of that TM2 megatron, 1 of 7 figures that I still need to get.

That purple X sure looks snazzy. Imagine if the Masterpiece version's packaging was a big Stasis Pod!

What are the other 6 you're after?

[King Atlas]

The others I'm missing are:

Transmutate
10th anniversary Tarantulas
Telemocha Cheetor
Telemocha boldfang
Moon
and Heinlad

What are your thoughts on the Starwars transformers.

What are your thoughts on the Starwars transformers.

They're "o.k".
They have very simple transformations (they almost feel like up-scaled legends).
The robot modes don't look too bad but they have balance issues and the alt modes are nice from the top but are just robots hanging underneath.
I would strongly recommend against paying full price for these but if you can get them for a discount and you like the look of the crossover line, give them a try.
