Are these two worth it to buy?

the megs is sweet

It depends, which ones do you mean? because there were a few different ones of each.

The original green Tank color scheme

Oh, that one - I've got him

He's pretty bad, that's actually the reason I bought him because he's so bad it's good.
He's quite big but the size isn't that impressive considering he's not realy that detailed, he's also very blocky, only articulated in the arms and not very interesting to transform.

And then there's the colour scheme...

I got a mint one in box and plan to hold onto him then resell him in a few years.

If you see one that complete and nice(with working electronics) for a low price then yeah, get him but don't pay too much as he is very average even by G2's low standards.

I do like the head sculpt on him, it's the smuggest TF head I've ever seen.

The big green one was the first tf I got. Maybe I'm biased because of that, but I think he's great. Simple transformation, as big as G1 Galvatron. He is far from the greatest tf, but if you can find one cheap, I would reccamend it.

Well, I have them all since the only characters I get from every series is Megs and OP.

Megs is as already pointed out, a brick, but a classic. Theres combat megs which is basically the same in purple. Oh and go-bot Mges. I won't go there.

For Prime, there were 3.

There was the regular G2 Prime which was basicaly the same as G1 but different color trailer, and voicebox with missiles.

Theres Hero Prime which is kinda a scaled down version of laser prime.

And theres laser prime, basically what RID Scourge was repinted from.

All 3 are awesome. I'd haver to say Laser Prime is the best of the 3.

If you let us know which ones in particular you are interested in, I can grab mine, which I haven't handled in ages, and give you a short review.

I only have the BW II Megastorm version which I like a lot. G" Prime, I got the re-issue. Recommended!

BW2 Megastorm is based on the smaller 'hero' megatron isnt he? The smaller one is nicer, but has had some terrible paintjobs. I personly really like the larger G2 Megs.

Do you think that 75$ is a lot to pay for him. That seems like a reasonable price hat you think?

hmm, don't think either should cost all that much.

Nope, Megastorm is the original G2 Megatron, slightly redecoed and no electronics. Japan only got the smaller Megs in G2.

Original G2 Prime is one of my favourites. He has the hokey voicebox that can clip to his back as a little missle-battle pack... its just great. Megatron is good toy too. I payed like $45 for him... Canadian and I'd say hes worth every penny. He is very simple and blocky but the sounds effects and working cannon are just great. I say you MUST pick these two up... and then re-enact the epic G2 comics. You'll have to use your imagination for Jhiaxus though.

I never liked that the G2 Megatron shouted "Megatron Attack!" Sounds too much like the Hulk for me. Still, it wasn't any worse than that "Megatron Rules[z]" sticker on the chest of the smaller purple figure.

The stickers are terrible, but the figures are enjoyable.

I'm honestly surprised that G2 Megatron wasn't in any of Hasbro's reissue lines, given that they suffered from a copious lack of Decepticons.
