New pictures have been added to the Masterpiece MP-05 Megatron and MP-01 Convoy galleries.

I received many requests after I posted the MP-05 gallery to post some images inspired by the animated movie. You can now view pictures of Megatron attacking Optimus Prime with his "laser dagger", Megatron standing over Optimus while holding a blaster, the famous Starscream-kicking-Megatron-while-he's-down scene and even a few pics of Megatron with a 2nd Megatron that I just got yesterday ... which also allowed me to take some pictures of Megatron in robot mode standing next to his gun mode. I was even able to get the LED light to work properly on the 2nd Megatron so I have some nice photos of Megatron posing with his Fusion Cannon lit up. Just be careful when you try to do this with yours. My 1st one broke when I pushed the button in ... this is one of those things where "excessive force" is definitely NOT necessary. There's around 50 new pictures in his gallery starting here.

I also updated MP-01 Convoy's (aka Optimus Prime) gallery to include some pictures of his packaging. MP-01 is the very first gallery that I took for this site which was posted back on January 4th, 2004. I am feverishly working toward my goal of averaging one gallery per day since 1/4/04. I'm getting close ... you guys can check out a script that I wrote to keep track of this at https://www.seibertron.com/test/num_galleries.php.

On that note, I am using this weekend to get caught up on galleries. I hope that all of you are enjoying the latest galleries, news and other features here on Seibertron.com. The staff here is working our hardest to provide you with the latest content for you to enjoy.

Back to the camera I go!

1 Gallery a DAY? We appreciate all that you do for us, but you don't need to push yourself that hard.

I already have been for the past 3 years my friend. As of April 7th, 2007 ...

Dude, it is not possible to calculate just how hard you pwn. I'm really sorry to hear that your Megs' button broke when you pushed it in... My G1 Galvatron's trigger is broken, so when I want to 'fire' him, I have to use the button on the top. Man, I should get around to fixing that...

Ryan, just to say that your galleries are always great viewing. A number of times I've picked up a figure after having a look on your galleries.

Keep up the good work.

yep the galleries are a great thing. Many times when I've been iffy about a figure in the store the galleries usually can convince me to get it.

Also my 5 year old loves them as I can show him some of the older Transformers I had when I was a kid.

All the site work is appreciated.

So I have. A few of the figures your galleries influenced me to get are Big Convoy, Armada Galvatron, and Cybertron Optimus Prime.

Awesome gallery. It's just too bad that Starscream is too small and lightweighted that he can't carry Megs in his arms and gives him the smirk.

Yeah, that's how I finally made the decision to go after a Masterpiece Ultra Magnus.

The galleries are what originally drew most of the current members of the site to it.

Keep up the good work!

You know what would be really cool. If you had Mp optimus and Megatron next their movie counter part. I would love to see them a side by side to see how far they have come. And for some how far off things are.
