So wait, is this a lucky draw version of a figure that's currently the only one of its line? :shock:

I wonder how much that would go for on the secondary market. It's nice but it's out of my reach.

Along with the news of the Gold Mega Drive Megatron lucky draw figure, Takara Tomy A.R.T.S. and Sega have tweeted photos of the mold in a new deco. This redeco adds the Sega Genesis logo to the console mode and changes the red paint operations for purple. This will be a run limited to 1000 pieces available for purchase.

All the pictures regarding this new deco have been mirrored below.

Me wants! I don't care he doesn't play any games, he's just perfect like that.

Genesis = Megatron
PlayStation = Optimus Prime
Nintendo 64 =?

Hmm, that deco deserves a song:

That looks amazing, wonder if they would do a retool into the Mega Drive II and Galvatron

(or a Saturn, Dreamcast I'm easy takara)

Autobot Tap Out there isn't an N64 one. Plus they haven't done the same generation of consoles as the playstation went against the Saturn, not the mega drive.

Or they could do a Sega CD/32X add-on as Tidal Wave.

Whoo! first news credit! It sometimes pays to be an insomniac on the web! seriously though, that gold segatron is SHINY. All those nice flat surfaces make this one of the better looking lucky draws I think

It's a shame that chrome would probably chip like crazy, because it looks divine.

Looks cool, but I don't think I can get behind it...

News Credits: 1 · by **durroth** » Fri Dec 05, 2014 2:59 pm

you probably don't want to be in front of it either, it will blind you with shinyness

Tonight we're gonna party like it's 1989!

Cool that it looks like they've even remolded his little cart into a Genesis shaped cart. They could have really cheaped out and not done that. Good for them.

Really wish both Megatron and Optimus would come out in the U.S. as a 2-pack of some sort. SEGA would probably be for it. I don't know about Sony though due to SEGA signing a contract with Nintendo to have 3 exclusive Sonic games.

I doubt Sony would care about that deal mind, any sort of thing like this would represent a good advertisement. Especially with the psone being optimus prime (the most iconic character from all of transformers)

Third-party licenses don't come that easily in the U.S.

This thing is a disgrace, it wont stand because the feet are too small.

Oh I know, I was just refuting the claim it wasn't coming due to a game deal.

Limited at only 1000 copies?! How much will that thing cost?

@SEGA_OFFICIAL has tweeted an in-package image of the gold Mega Drive Megatron. This is part of a Sega promotional campaign for Japanese residents by purchasing the upcoming Sega 3D Reprint Archives, between 18th December 2014 and 31st January 2015, and filling in an online questionnaire to be able to win.

Is this piece a hit over there, because I don't see the fascination with it. It's kind of like the shoe-formers that came out a few years back...in other words, "WTF?"

:I

Surprised this didn't come up before, but... did anybody else notice that the remolded "16-Bit" piece on Genesis Megatron actually reads "15-Bit"?

We may have seen images of both of these previously, but we also get a nice look at the boxes for both the Takara Tomy licensed and fully transformable Sega Genesis Mega Drive Megatron and Playstation X Optimus Prime, once again from Wonderfest 2015, and via Autobase Aichi - check them out below!
