It feels like we've waited an eternity for this. If you want to avoid spoilers (wait, does that term apply here? Meh), then turn back now.

Over on the r/Transformers Subreddit, Redditor "sixthrowshot" has posted a number of in-hand images of the long-awaited upcoming and yet-to-be-revealed Transformers Studio Series '86 Megatron. And here, we're sharing a few of them with you today!

This is just not a good tank Megatron, but we're all here for the bot, and that's where it doesn't impress for me. The proportion is off in many ways for me. Still, it looks like it got good articulation, and transformation should be fun. I'm glad it's not bumped up to Commander price like OP was.

I don't know. I'm liking it better the longer I look at it. Is it perfect? No. Could it have looked better? I don't know. None of the other tank Megatrons we've gotten since Combiner Wars kicked off this trend have even come close to the kibble vanishing act this one pulls off. There is zero backpack here. None. Nothing. Nada.

Tank seems mostly fine to me. If I were to change anything, maybe I'd put the barrel in the middle of the turret and have the cannon stick out off of that, maybe? For color cohesion?

The look of the tank is fine... until the turret is turned to the side, the pivot at the back is the problem for me, it's like the BBM Megs situation again.

I'd prefer a bit less surface details (to better match SS86 OP's aesthetic) but the cleanliness of kibble management is near perfection, this is a better looking Megatron than even the MP version in that regard. Nitpicks aside, it's a Leader class Megatron, I'll honestly take it and give it at least a 9 if there's no QC issues really. I'll probably love it more than SS86 OP TBH.

I always thought SS86OP is overpriced for what we got. Should've included a better trailer (separate blue parts in the trailer to sit some modern Diaclone troopers like the OG, engineer flaps to have a port so the command center can sticks out when the trailer's is the "closed" position, complete accessories for Roller, etc.). Like, Motormaster is just a much better product in terms of value at the same price, and that diminished my positive impression of SS86 OP.
