    I can second that. I still have my first TM Megatron with me unwanted (only good for parts) because its whole chest area broke leaving it with only one arm and no practical way of re-attaching it.
    If Takara used a different plastic that makes it more stable, I'd recommend it as well. I'd be guessing it looks exactly the same, just different packaging (that you probably won't be able to read).

    I have a TM Megatron, not very good with the Beats Wars figs though, since I have only recently started collecting that line. Anyways here is a pic, if your interested let me know.



    And I have this Armada version which is the same fig just repainted. Think his name was Predacon for this series.

    Predacon is an entirely different character from Megatron. He's also retooled with dead mini-con ports.

    I also strongly recommend getting the Japanese version of Transmetal Megatron as it is made of much better quality plastic that isn't as brittle as the Hasbro version.

    i've no idea...wasn't a big fan of Beast Wars and realised about toy figures (action toys) about 2-3 years ago. before that, only knew comics and DVDs exist. before that, thought it had already extincted!

    Predacon is pretty hard to find. Just as much as the Armada Dinobots purely b/c they weren't in high demand when they weren't released in great numbers either.
