TW's Hegemon is ALSO smaller than Orion.

Aaand my Classics Megatron has been chosen.

Now to wait until release...

As some have pointed out. Don based the Titanium, The Fallen toy on the WW Megatron designs. Making a 3rd party WW Megatron in the same 6 inch scale as the Titanium the fallen toy is just
Why bother paying $80 to $100 for MS-01 when the Titanium, The fallen toy only cost $15.

If 3rd parties expect me to fork over the big bucks. Then they have to do stuff HasTak hasn't or make them radicaly different. If MS-01 was created in a radically different Leader Scale from the Titanium Voyager Fallen toy. Then this would have given me a reason to buy this MS-01 toy.

Truck not monkey < Gun not tank

no worries. thats what i thought anyways. i really liked IDW's origin megatron design. i wonder if he'll have that yellow/black striped tape painted on him? that would make him an instant buy for me!

Unlikely, the Origins body is very similar, but different. It would need some remolding to work as the Origins version, but yes, the Origins version would be pretty badass.

No some have pointed that out, I pointed that out. What I also pointed out numerous times, along with others, is the fact that this is not WW Megatron, this is IDW pre-Earth Megatron. And if you mother hadn't smoked and drunken while she was pregnant with you, you might even understand that.

Give it a rest. Everyone in this section a few weeks ago agreed to treat everyone nicely and respectfully. So far it's working. Everyone is really putting a effort to care about others feelings.

What exactly do you hope to accomplish with those hitting below the belt comments? are you hoping others join in on the mocking and start ganging up on me also? Are you hoping i'll get overly excited, give you the counter attack you crave. So you can make it look like I am the troublemaker?

Making fun of members vision, IQ's, calling their mothers drunk,drug addits and implying their kids are mentally challenged due to this has no place in this thread or on this forum.

I am not mocking or baiting you in this thread of forum. Please show me the same respect, Dignity and adult grown up courtesy I am showing you here.

Nope, the consensus was that you should learn from your errors, realize why people are annoyed by you and change, and not demand everyone else to adapt to you.

I'm simply drawing conclusions from your inability to see the difference between different designs, no matter how many times it's pointed out to you by me and others, you constantly berate us. This is not War Within Megatron, yes it's a G1 Megatron that turns into a tank, but it's not War Within Megatron, neither is the current idw tank Megatron. Those are three different designs, two different Megatrons at two different stages of their lives.
The fact that you cannot see this, nor understand, despite how obvious it is, leaves just a handful of conclusions.

You're a troll and baiting us; you have bad sight and only see gray and black without details; you're incapable of distinguishing between different things, and refuse to accept when you're wrong; or you're simply incapable of basic learning.

Actions cause reactions, so if you act like an ass, I'll continue reacting accordingly. Don't like it? Then, simply change.

I take your point that there are many similarities between the two but there are also a lot of differences, especially on the chest section. Also Titanium suffers from the old Bot lying down alt mode, whereas MS-1 appears to have much more intricate engineering, he looks worth the money based on the engineering, detailing and quality of there Blaster figure.

Knock it off. Comments like this are not welcome on the site.

Back on topic people. Further discussion will result in me getting grumpy.

You won't like me grumpy.

Come on Dead Metal, why can't you just admit your wrong? All tank Megatrons are the same just as all truck Optimus' are the same. All yellow Bumblebees are the same, all medic transformers are the same, all Autobots are the same, and all decepticons are the same. Matter of fact, all transformers are the same.

I'm excited about this. I just wonder how long it will be before it's finished.

i think we can safely say titaniums are long gone. you cant walk into a store and buy one 15 bucks anymore. i doubt theyve skyrocketed but ebay is the only place and theyve got to be more than retail was. and generally speaking, the titanium line as a whole, sucked. there were some OK figures, but thats as far as it goes.

just because a hasbro version exists, doesnt mean it cant be improved upon or even replaced by a superior version. i would happily pay the (probably) $60 difference to get maketoys paladin over hasbros titanium fallen. personal taste accounts for a lot, but come on guy. price aside you cant tell me one doesnt outshine the other.

after establishing WW megs =/= origin megs ( >:oP ) just comparing MS01 to titanium WW megs... well there is no comparison. one is simply better than the other.

Not just that, we are all the same, we are one, we are the Borg.

I'm guessing not before December, their Blaster is taking ages to come out.
Actually, this Megatron is called MS-01, as in MegaSteel 01, could it be that this might actually come out before Blaster and might actually not take that long to come out?

MS-01 is IDW Megatron, MS-02 is Soundwave and MS-03 is Blaster. Normally, They should get released in chronological order. Igear doesn't release it's stuff in chronological order,So who knows if MS will or not.

It's debatable if MS will release any toys. As MS has yet to release something. I've just seen so many newer 3rd party companies fold and cease operations before they release anything.

I just think it's a losing battle in sales for MS-03 as The UT version of Blaster already got the bulk of the sales. If MS releases MS-01 after the Hastak 30th verson,after the SSL Vetron toy, Then this is another sales battle MS has lost.

Haven't heard anything regarding MS-02 Soundwave. So it's plausible MS cancelled this due to HasTak repeatedly re-releasing the MP Soundwave Soundblaster toy.

BBTS has a pre-order for MS-03 Blaster for May. This seems like it will get released first from MS. We'll just see if MS releases this or not. Speculating, the May release date will get delayed for a month or Two, maybe longer.

Thinking about it a bit I'd say the differences between the Stormbringer and Origins designs wouldn't require that much remolding, depending on what phase of his Origin design one refers to. I do wish I could find some clear pics of each phase, but after my last comment I had to go back and look through my own copy of that series to discern whether I was thinking of the right one. Coloration aside, his final design from origin is the closest to the SB one, at minimum just a different fusion cannon. To get any of his earlier designs they'd have to strip away all the weapons and give him different arms, also would probably be a good idea to get rid of the molded on swirly chest things and replace them with optional stickers/decals.

For me to buy into it, they'd also have to slim him down a bit and give him a more Milne-y face sculpt.

Do you have any examples? I do not recall seeing that many new companies going out of business over the last several years after showing renders or prototypes, certainly not enough to say, "so many."

That's a good point. I hadn't even noticed that this was numbered before Blaster.

I don't agree with this either. Most of the comments I've read concerning the UT Blaster haven't been positive. Personally, I like it but have held off on buying it to see how MegaSteel's turns out.

Pretty cool.

I wish it was a bit larger sized, but I think I'm getting it anyway.

If there are 1 or 2 other similarly designed Megatrons that actually get released, I may wait and see them first before I make a final choice.

Megatron is standing pretty far in akimbo there. Orion not as much. I think they will scale to one another just fine.

Im sure we will see more pics where MS Megatron is scaled with other bots and Megs wont have grown another half a head? Although, Megatron with two heads would look quite funny!
If I can be bothered I will recreate the Megatron/Prime pose with my Orion/Prime...

Better than the "leader class" megatron

MKall a forum member from seibertron and TFW sent a inquiry message to Mega.steel.sales@gmail.com Regarding the staus on MegaSteel MS-01 Megatron. The return reply message was, Yes, Sure MS-01 still proceeding molding stage, After MS-03 Radio.

More interested on a update for the, Shadow Samurai League LF-01 Vertron Megatron toy.
