New Official Images of Transformers Generations Combiner Wars

It's a shame they didn't put a port or something so that you could attach Armada Megatron's cannon to his side and make him more accurate.

in the new deluxe batch, dead end is probably my favorite. and i am feeling MUCH better about the megatron now. the G1 one anyways, armada megs is lookin a little plain jane if you ask me.

Drag Strip is my favorite, personally. It's all in that vicious head sculpt.

Agree with you on Armada Megatron - but he's primed for a 3rd party to swoop in and give him a killer add-on kit with swing around cannon, and maybe even a nice dagger per the original toy. That's my hope, anyway...

Didn't realize until now that that Armada Megatron has solid orange horns. Yuk.

I get the feeling that I might have liked that figure more if it had just been a straight redeco instead of a simple remold; a version of G1 Megatron colored as a homage to Armada Megatron, instead of actually trying to be Armada Megatron.

I don't like the way those Megatrons look at all. They looked really good in older images, but what doesn't look better in prelim/mocked photos?

Menasor looks okay to me, but I'd need better pics to really judge.

The individual Stunticons look great (especially Dead End) but Menasor combined looks odd.

What I'd like to see someone like Perfect Effect do is an add-on kit that works as a trailer for Motormaster, becomes a "repair bay" when he's in robot mode (ala the vintage toy) and splits apart into add-ons for the combined mode that bulks him up and improves his proportions (and gives him better hands and feet).

The G1 Megs works, but the Armada version...eh. I'd rather a 3P company came out and gave us a kit to give the original toy better leg articulation.All you'd need to do is replace his hips and thighs. I suppose they could make him replacement feet but they'd need to find a way to let the buyer remove the pins.

The armada version looks better but the scale throws me off a bit. I might pick him up on clearance.

Yeah Menasors pretty awful, the proportions are all over the place! Cannot understand how they can get Superion so right and Menasor so wrong. Still money saved for Devy. Not feeling Megs at all, too big for a start. Really is a mixed bag this line.

Completely agree. Can't stand the bulky wide chest with a car stuck bang in the middle of it. Looks bloody stupid. His head sculpt is awful too. The more I look at it the more I'm put off until a Third Party can attempt to salvage it. Also, when I was thinking about getting him I was planning to have Dead End and Breakdown the other way around, how they should be. It looks like you can do this with Breakdown, but Dead End has this bit of kibble that looks like it'll obstruct that. Badly designed if that's the case.

Individually they don't look bad, but Menasor is a bit of a car crash.

So lets see

Motor Master - Sword
Dragstrip - Sword
Breakdown - Sword
Offroad - Axe
Deadend - Exhaust Pipe

Maybe it's because he's a such a Pessimist he knows a sword won't work on the Autobots anyway so he's not even trying to fight.

I actually kind of like Menasor. He's not perfect but I still quite like him. I will wait for in hand pics of the Megatrons.

I always saw the Stunticons as brutish thugs. An exhaust pipe is pretty fitting, as far as bludgeoning objects go.

Oh no! I had not noticed those wheels ending up behind Megatron's head before. This really hurts the design.
