I hope sunlight isn't hitting your figs...the color on them is going to fade and whites turn yellow if so.

Well, I was going to skip this as I have MP Megs (& Henkei FWIW), but the pics in this thread have made this a must-buy. Robot mode looks so perfect for Megatron - finally someone did his head right!

Wow, I'm a little shocked by all the love.

I got mine the other day and I was underwhelmed.

I thought the plastic felt cheap, the gun mode was a little wonky, and the leg panels that form the top of the handle in alt mode were just a poor design.

I really didn't like the shoulder joints on his arms, especially the cannon arm. mine is pretty loose after one transform.

Don't get me wrong, he looks great in bot mode, but I really don't want to touch him for fear of parts popping off all over.

I felt with a few tweaks this could have been 100% perfect. As is, he's about 80%.

As far as gun mode Megatrons he is the best so far, it is a real engineering challenge to get that character to work in both modes, so I do give them props, but it just didn't wow me the way I had though it would.

I got mine and I think he's great. A little large to fit into my collection bot-mode wise, but that's okay. Mine has great joints even after several transformations. Took a while to get the gun mode to work, but managed it. Those top panels of the handle are a bit tricky, but nowhere near as bad as MP Megatron's tricky bits.

The gun mode isn't perfect and it isn't a Walther, but I think it works. Like all of the Classics it doesn't have to be perfectly accurate to what it was on TV or as a toy; it captures the right spirit. And I love that it's to scale with my own hand. It doesn't feel too small (liek G1) or like a cannon (like MP). To me this justifies the height.
And it's the same height as Superlink Galvatron. So for those who have some sort of display where they need Galvy to be as tall as Megatron, SL Galvy works for that.

Size comparison. Pretty acceptable IMO since Megatron's a Gladiator bot.

Mine was shipped yesterday from Captured Prey...kinda wished I had gotten it from Robot Kingdom, woulda had it a week or more ago :lol:

Oh well, at least I got one before they sold out.

Really? I ordered mine off of eBay on the 29th from China and it hit New York on the 4th. I'm hoping to have it tomorrow!
