An upgraded form of OTFCC 2004 Universe Megazarak. That's an idea for someone we could have used this toy for.

That Megatron was actually a proposed store exclusive that would have come with Smallest Transforming Transformers Soundwave. I actually had to double-check that since there's a similar Lucky Draw repaint with red instead of the green (using the smaller mold of course).

Right, and I'm saying we could have used this as an repurposed upgraded Megazarak, to avoid the redundancy of one more Megatron.

We can never have too many Megatrons. At least he has the guts to change overall appearance unlike a certain other leader you all seem to love

This is one of the very few G1 Transformers I actually like.

I have thought about picking up one of the many KO versions I often see offered but really dont like that steel bar that joins his knees together.
That part seems to be missing or photoshopped out of the prototype/recoloured version.

My questions are, is that bar really necessary to hold Swoop together, or if one was to snip it off would Swoops legs fall off, or does it need to be present to accomplish Transformation? :-?

They need to re release that e-hobby minibot set

The deco of this Megatron reminds me of that of Armada Lucky Draw Black Megatron.

I remember the dorky looking head of G1 Razorclaw/Predaking? It was supposed to be built into the body unlike the "helmet" Predaking is now using. I hope to be able to see in my lifetime the figure and how it was supposed to function.
