Seeing as how they were able to make a Browning accessory for the new Squeezeplay toy, they ought to be able to do the same for Megatron.
There's already been the one that came with the Centurion pack and the one that was part of Core Class Megs. They could use either of those.
If they insist on sticking with tanks, I'd like to see them return to the old Quake transformation instead of dumping half the tank on Megatron's back.
The problem typically is they want him to look like cartoon Megatron and that requires finding places for tank kibble so his legs and chest look sufficiently G1.
I really feel like some characters, such as Megatron and Arcee, just need new designs instead of trying to fit the square pegs of G1 designs into the round holes of "Trying to make them turn into vehicles those designs have no business turning into."

I kind of wish the real G2 "tank front chest" style transformation had stuck around. That's a great look. You lose the iconic arm cannon, but you could always make it detach and connect to the arm as an option.
With any luck, hell have a nifty "submarine" mode...
Also, I'm also up for cassette multipacks, but I suspect if they do, they'll be Target/USA exclusive.
I would love to see SS86 Megatron be a handgun again. I would lose my mind.
I know it's not likely to happen again, but man, that would be awesome.

Agreed. It's somewhat ironic that now that
Same. It's somewhat ironic that once "tank" became Megatron's normal alt-mode, we never actually see the original G2 tank silhouette for his bot mode (Legends class aside), all because they want to match the P38=based chest.

I would buy that. Or, for that matter, a Megatron with an F-15 altmode that doesn't use the Seeker transformation pattern. (He could always crib Leader-1's transformation, could make for some interesting redeco options...)

I have never forgiven Titans Return for not doing this.

Ooh! Make this a new iteration of Megaplex. His normal form is a Seeker, but he can also transform into a Megatron body double when needed.
I honestly expect 86 Megatron to look like his G1 self as a robot but changing into a tank with a hidden alt mode, while packing a accessory that looks like his G1 alt mode so that he can do his best impression of Shockwave, holding himself or for Starscream to get a hold of, to gun down, Prowl, Ironhide, Ratchet & Brawn, after yelling "DIE AUTOBOTS!!!"
Would be wild if this were an arc in a cartoon, but with Starscream instead of Skywarp. And it's this being forced to cohabit a body that finally gets him to stop trying to overthrow Megatron (at least, from the motivation of reckless ambition and dissatisfaction with Megs' leadership).
Titan Magazines had just such an arc in their fiction, but springboarding from an alternate ending of the 2007 Movie -- so different Megatron, different Starscream....
Nah. I need this Megaplex idea now.
I'd rather have this one.Bring this forgotten clusterfuck concept back.
But seriously, though: While I know that he wouldn't actually be transforming into it, given he has to shrink anyway, I say make him come with a smaller replica of his gun alt mode as they've done before.
This doesn't have to be either/or. Give us a whole subline of this crazy nonsense.
