Thanks to the Cybergundam blog we a scan from the latest issue of Dengeki Hobby magazine that reveals the upcoming Super GT-03 Megatron in much greater detail. Like the rest of Takara Tomy's Super GT line he's a remold of the previously released Alternity Convoy. Check out the scan mirrored below.

I've nothing against the occasional, or sensible repaint. This looks okay, but isn't about the 83,000th version of this toy?

That's nothing compared to the current record holder: Classics Starscream. Who are you kidding? :lol:
Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for any clear Arms Microns, like Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Preparing to move to the US!

admittedly there are a few different Starscreams, but most of the repaints have been other characters who are supposed to share his body design. Megatron, Star Saber, Optimus Prime and how ever many other characters have all traditionally had unique body types and alt modes.

The Alternity Convoy mold is a Nissan GT-R, a car model in the current Super GT series, and looking over the other makes in Alternity (Nissan Fairlady Z, Suzuki Swift and Mitsuoka Orochi) NONE of them are in the car lineup. In fact, Suzuki and Mitsuoka aren't even participating!

So yeah, expect quite a few more repaints. :lol:

God I would love to see a revival of the alternators/binaltech/super gt line in the US.
Looking for the Megatron gun (or just the stock) that came with 20th anniversary MP Optimus Prime.

Seeing how Super GT Racing is popular in the Asian region, I would expect that if Hasbro wanted to... They do that with NASCAR.

But it would only make sense if they added a Kyle Busch figure with Starscream in the end. :lol:

I'm not a fan of this line though they still look awesome but Megatron has alway been one of my favorite :CON: . If we get better pics and if they tempt me enough I will be picking this one up...'nuff said! :VEHI:

I just got a closer view of this figure. Pretty sweet head sculpt. It has, to me, a very Naoto Tsushima feel to it.

Besides that, the lack of Autobot and Decepticon symbols have me wonder if this incarnation has them teaming up defending Earth while racing against each other. :-?

Once again the CyberGundam Blog brings us a fresh look at Takara Tomy's recently revealed Super GT-03 GTR Megatron. Like all the figures in in the Super GT line he's a remold of the previously released Alternity Convoy mold. He comes with a new head mold, race inspired weapon, full sponsor logos, and a poseable Race Queen figure. Check out the latest image mirrored below.
