Motto: "Shut up and take my SQUEE!"
Weapon: No Weapon
I agree he's not the ideal size for the rest of the Classics, but he's not much different in size than the Classics Megs mold so it's somewhat moot. I just pose him in a bit of a crouched pose and he's no worse off than United Megs was.

He's larger than united Megs. But yeah, it's fine with some creative posing. Plus, the scale in the classics is pretty off. Thunderwing is teeny weeny and the Seekers aren't perfect either, being smaller than BB. Label Soundwave, in turn, ought to be slightly larger, IMO. And then you have WfC Shockwave. It's kinda strange that the Season1-2 Decepticons are at such small sizes, but that's how it is, I guess.

So I ended up ordering one from Robot Kingdom and received total disappointment today.

The right arm was disconnected and loose in the box, but that wasnt the big issue. The let forearm was covered in super glue locking it in place. Not sure if it was to cover up something else that was broken, but whatever the case its unacceptable.

I emailed Robot Kingdom so hopefully they will be able to provide good customer service.

Ooh. Yeah, I can tell you from personal experience that that's not how it should be. I hope RK works with you. A Hegemon with no issues is a fantastic figure, which is what 99% of them have been, so far. I'm really sorry they stuck you with a lemon. :(

I feel for you, I really do. It's such an amazing figure. i have had factory error problems with Robotkingdom orders (3rd party and official). RK has always been very cooperative when I have contacted them about these issues. I hope you have the same experience.

Thankfully, it looks like I was able to resolve this. Daniel at Robot Kingdom is going to send me a replacement arm. Not sure why they have extra parts around, but that is fine by me. Hopefully Ill have it sometime next week.

It definitely looks like a nice figure and Ill be happy to have it display with my other generations figures.

They yank it from a spare Hegemon an dkeep the rest in case anyone else has problems. Probably.

Picked up the new arm from the post office and the figure is now back to 100%. Really nice figure and Im super happy to finally have a Megatron with my other generations figures.

Transformation was a bit tricky but not terrible if you are patient.
