I definitely like Takara's take on Megatron much more than Hasbro's. I hate crappy Megatron decos, something which Hasbro has had too many of.

Metroplex: All that unpainted white plastic.
Megatron: G1 colors on a mold that's obviously sculpted to be Miner Megatron.
Starscream: Wrong color layout for that body.
Sandstorm: Different, but I'm fine with Hasbro's.

He's coming in Wave 6 (October 26). We still haven't seen official pics of Wave 5 (September 28) yet. We gotta see Wave 5 before we can see Wave 6.

These all look much better than the Hasbro versions, especially Sandstorm and Metroplex.

That Metroplex is a sexy beast. I sure hope it doesn't yellow over time.

Yep, Hasbro's version had the symbol in that spot, which Takara tried to hide to put their own in the center.

Megatron looks spiffy. What a simple paint change can do to a figure.
