Yeah, I agree...

Ass-fans? If you meant the intakes he can deploy in beast mode and robot mode, they were on his beast hips/robot back.

I don't think this is supposed to represent Megatron's Transmetal body, but rather his Season 1 body.

I remember someone calling ROTF Ravage's cannons "ass cannons", and on a whim, decided to call Transmetals Meg's boosters "ass-boosters." Not very suitable, in retrospect.

I naturally thought it would be Transmetals since his season one body was organic as opposed to mechanical.

Maybe the head will come off and clip to his hand. What would season 1 Megs be without a gigantic, bot crushing maw for a hand?

Sorry, Hasbro, I think this one misses...

OH MY GOD

Sorry man, but that's half their bid'ness. I don't think this looks that bad actually.

I might willingly pick up a beast wars mould...

That must be the molds alternate head. Pretty interesting choice, then again, how many T-Rex TF's do we have aside from Grimlock? Anyone?

And which one would less knowledgeable fans actually know at heart?

I still think the sword and shield should be bigger. I want to see some color images of this. Megatron was the only toy I ever liked from the Beast Wars toy line, so I may bite....

They should just reissue Transmetal Megs... but with better plastic.
