BM Megatron just wasn't a very good toy. He really needed to be at least an Ultra. As is, weight aside, he really is an enhanced Deluxe. It comes across in his size, simplicity, and "sloppiness", for lack of a better word. His robot stomach is just his dragon arms shoved into the gap between his chest and waist, with nothing holding it all together into a cohesive torso. His wings are segmented into a top half and bottom half on a hinge joint, leaving the whole assembly kind of floppy. And even with his cloak, his small size means he just has virtually no presence around the rest of the line, which leaves him very underwhelming as the big threat.
It really doesn't help that the gimmick he gets from his higher price class feels like more of a detriment than a plus. The dragon head/arm gimmick just makes it so you have to fight against it to do much of anything with it.
I would love to see him redone with much more room to work. Probably as a Commander in the current line.
