derex3592 Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 Yes!!! Mighty Megatron is awesomeness!!! Got mine today!
spanner Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 finally Transformers toys are starting to resemble properly engineered toys! Loving that Megatron and Soundwave!
derex3592 Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 They really are! I've been patient and played the long game, as I only care about the original G1's, mostly the baddies! Megs was definitely worth the wait!

ZorClone Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 Where can you get the Megatron MP-36 from without the orange barrel/silencer plugs?

The simpler answer is that the ONLY two places I heard of that are using the plugs are BBTS and HLJ. So if you avoid those two places, you should be good.

One website lists MP-36 at 30 cm / 11.8" I don't have a pic of MP-36 in comparison to anything but here is a picture that you can relate to to give you an idea: MP-36 is a few mm taller than the XTB Megatron there. The Valk is a 1/60. Edited April 12, 2017 by Slave IV

NP...May I ask what you want out of this Megatron figure and how you will be "playing" with it? Just a warning that it is probably more delicate (especially the paint) and complicated than a lot of Valks. But I guess if you are mainly used to Valks, it should be a walk in the park.

I don't know actually. My only TF figures are just selected Hot Rod figures. But seeing that new Megatron makes me feel like I need to have him and Prime. But it's not concrete yet. And besides, we have lots of Valk spending to do from this month to September. So who knows?

Sildani Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 (edited) Nope, wrong quotes, at least to me. It's not the exact scene, but that arm cannon pose reminds me of: "Oh, I would have waited an eternity for this! It's over, Prime." Edited April 13, 2017 by Sildani

Yeah, Valks definitely are the priority. Megatron is sold out most places or jacked up in price. If you can wait, maybe wait for inevitible reissues. 15 hours ago, spanner said: cool! Thanks!

Sorry if it was already mentioned but how much are they? And now I see how it fits, because there are two different sizes, lol! Finally have a new Macross purchase to share here: I LOVE it! Now, bring on the 1/60s!

The detail on that tiny figure is pretty impressive! I wondered about this line from the start...the quality, lack of metal in a line called "Hi-Metal", the price...But everytime I get one, I'm amazed and so happy with the purchase (except Hikaru's 1J). The attention to detail they put in this line is so refreshing amoung all the half assed, just thrown out there "collectable" toys on the market.
anubis20 Posted April 14, 2017 Posted April 14, 2017 Got this masterpiece yesterday Its not toooo bad after some glue on the pegs for fighter mode but yea out of the box its a floppy mess. Battroid mode is pretty although with some pretty limited articulation in the legs. Im just glad I didnt pay full price for this.
