I don't really mind that he doesn't turn into a gun anymore. I'm willing to let them fudge on this one character's alt mode if the only other choice is that we don't get a Studio Series Megatron. As long as the robot mode is on-point, that is (which it appears to be).
From Takara Tomy's X account, we have our first look at several upcoming Studio Series figures, including our first image (doctored though it may be) of SS86 Megatron.
The picture is posterized and blackened to hide details, but we can still get a decent look at upcoming figures including...
I'm loving the Wild King energy beasts, but there are several Cyberworld toys I'm wanting, too (bull Megatron, Junkion dinosaurs), so I'm glad we're getting both!
Which ITSELF has really been Shockwave all along!
But seriously, what we can see of Megatron looks pretty good! It looks like the headsculpt/face is well done, which seems to give designers trouble sometimes so glad to see this one looks nice. From the silhouette, he seems to be extremely...
I just now noticed that he has an Autobot symbol, which is unusual for a Nemesis Prime, I think? I could be 100% wrong on that, though. I'm sure it makes sense in this story, as I assume this Nemesis Prime will literally be normal Optimus Prime corrupted or controlled by an evil force as...
My one complaint is the gap under the back of Abyss Rain's back piece. I wonder if the energy-symbol-thingy can fit between it and the main body to close that gap up?
Liking all of these. Nemesis Prime is a bit boring as a by-the-numbers Optimus repaint, but that Megatron is pretty beautiful. Very surprised that the the Leaf-energy bird wasn't in this wave, as it was the only leaked figure that hasn't shown up yet. Did it get cancelled, or are there more...
From Amazon Japan, we have the official reveal of Wave 3 of Takara's Transformers Wild King toyline! This wave features redecos of the two core bots as Nemesis Prime and Shadow Megatron, each coming with an energy beast partner: Lavamuleta, a fire-element bull, for Nemesis Prime and Frost...
According to the wiki, the missiles from the barely-released Megatron/Starscream redeco of Dreadwing/Smokejumper were glow in the dark plastic.
But other than that and the slot car set, there really hasn't ever been glowing plastic Transformers which is, frankly, inexcusable.
Cyber glow Megatron. This the first use of glow in the dark plastic since G2 unless I'm mistaken. Hopefully this gets used some more, GitD is always a fun gimmick.
I'm not normally one to like it when Beast Wars and G1 characters of the same name get smooshed together, but I actually find that G1 Dinosaur Megatron extremely cool. May prefer if the black portions faded more organically into the silver to look more like a realistic animal color pattern, but...
