That's basically what I'm saying...This is Alternators...I can't think of ONE single Alternator or Binaltech figure that's completely accurate to the original character (Well, actually Hound was pretty dead on)...That's just the way the line is...I understand what you guys are saying, I really do, and I prefer Megatron to have his big fusion cannon too...But I'm not so stuck on it that I INSIST that he always HAS to have it or he's simply not worth considering...

why couldn't Megatron's arm cannon transform into hois engine? Lots of Alternators had that concept.

I'm just saying.

I like the silver one but the blue doesnt work. Im just surprised he doesnt have a gun. I understand not using the fusion cannon since theres no way to integrate it into the car but at least a handgun. Megatron was always a gun fighter first and a hand to hand fighter second. I like swords and i like Megatron but he needs a gun. Id love to get one but i dont think im going to have the money.

His face looks a little odd - no nose? He's always had a handsome nose, what's up? :-(

The swords are good and the dark grey looks nice. Makes me think of the black Shadow Blade Megatron, who I have posed with swords too.

"My Megatron's got no nose."
"How does he smell?"
"Terrible!"

How long until one of the third party operations produce an arm-cannon upgrade? ;p

The mold is good for a binaltech style transformer, but it just doesn't really seem like Megatron without the cannon.

I don't know why I would buy a blue Megatron, if there is a grey/silver option available.

On the otherhand, the blue is strangely appealing...

I feel ya! As much as I like Megatron in his traditional grey and all, that blue is lovely and would make a nice flamboyant addition to my Gang O' Megatrons! I likes it!

I was hoping that the Monterey blue was going to be a greyish metallic blue, not a bright blue. From previous pictures, the face has a nose, but the lighting just hides it here.

The double swords makes Megatron look more like a swashbuckling pirate - arghhh... He needs an arm cannon. Too bad he's so small. Perhaps they could have engineered a cannon for him if he was larger (like Binaltech size).

Wait, pirate Megatron? And they're doing a black (ninja) Prime? This pair of toys just got awesome.

Wish it was in scale with my Alts. MP Megatron still remains king. Sorry Alternity mini-me Megatron, but I won't be buying you (unless, of course, they decide to go back to 1:24 scale).
