Against MegaHead Megatron's capabilities, the Resistance had a distinct tactical deficiency.

That is, until they recruited Ratchet -- who fortunately had an old friend within MegaHead's entourage: Drift.

Being the Mech with a Mouth, he not only divulged information on MegaHead's vulnerabilities, but also defected to the Resistance.

Magmatron also caught up with an old friend, who was more than willing to share his secrets.

The hour of reckoning was finally here, and Magmatron led the charge.

Super Black summons the Convoy Aggregate...

: ULTIMATE END

This saw to the ending of MegaHead's reign, rescue of Metalhawk & Cloudburst, and the freedom of Cybertron -- not to mention of all sentient beings across the multiverse...

Thanks to the Trickster, Liege Maximo, MegaHead escaped destruction.

: My Liege? Yessss

But only momentarily.

Having suspected that Megatron still functions, "Super Black" Convoy manages to track him down.

: Nibelung valesti!

With the help of Prime Master Micronus, Super Black harnesses the power of the defunct Fortress Maximus to summon the Master Sword -- and puts an end to MegaHead.

: CHOOM CHOOM!!

With Megatron vanquished, Super Black's mission is finally accomplished. He's set to return to the Convoy Aggregate....

But Liege Maximo has other plans for the Knight of Darkness.

I love all your crazy mash-up squads, much fun. :APPLAUSE:

As far as I'm concerned you're the Beast Wars guy and you brought up "Tex" here over in the collectotron...

...and you got Muse stuck in my head. So I figured I share one of my favorite Muse songs that mashes up Sci-Fi and the Wild West with a touch of Kung-Fu.

4:13 amiright?

I really enjoyed their 2nd Law album and still need to check out Drones. Which at this point is kinda old, but you can only consume so much.

Agreed

Some of the poses in those pictures are pretty epic, too! Lots of imagination in them :MAXIMAL:

Thanks Cary & Wingz! I was hoping my big battle scene didn't look like just a messy floor. :p

I love that smirk on Corhada -- those Beast Wars Neo figures are all so well done; and as much as I'd love to be tha Beastmaster, it's all thanks to CoBro, Will and Shaj that I ripped through Beast Wars & Beast Machines.

I'm a new fan that finally saw what others did years ago -- but I also get to enjoy Beast Wars II with subs! Beast Wars Neo is next -- and I'm thanking Wingz for putting both these Japan-only series in my queue. :MAXIMAL:

I love Muse -- but haven't picked up Drones either. Black Holes & Revelations remains one of my absolute favorite albums. And damn, these guys put on a true spectacle of ROCK 'N' ROLL -- I was fortunate to see them on their Resistance and 2nd Law tours. :DANCE:

The MP-36 reissue arrived today! We'll see how much of a muse Megatron will be....

: Well, then who the hell else are you...

News Credits: 3 · by **bodrock** » Wed Feb 14, 2018 4:59 pm

MP-36 is truly a masterpiece.

: Is this thing on...?

As a fan of Megatron & the Decepticons, I knew I had to have this figure -- this was, of course, after weighing the pros and Cons of all versions of him, from Takara to 3P.

: Phase Sixers, 1, 2, 3....; IMG_0446.JPG (108.89 KiB) Viewed 8158 times

In the end, I went official, and I could almost die happy having him as the original leader of the Decepticons represented in all his G1 glory.

: DIE AUTOBOTS

The accessories are wonderful too, and show some real thought was put into this incarnation. I can't wait to take more pics!

: Playin' Dirty

You are very welcome! I'm always happy to corrupt help!

They really, really are. Corahda is one of my favorite figures in the line. Three forms, a working water gun, love the color scheme, and that smirk XD He's a pretty fun character in the series, too! I think you'll really enjoy it, when you get there ;)^

Looking forward to seeing what you do with him.

Thanks Cobo & Wingz! I can't honestly think of any other MPs I absolutely gotta have, with my go-to Megatron in the house.

I was pretty excited to see PotP wave2 at my Walmart! I'm pretty sure buying all 3 Legends figures was pure impulse ($7/each = I couldn't say no lol). But Elita-1 was #1 on my list.

: Dat face

And since it's Valentine's Day....

Am I a Flight of the Conchords fan, Shaj? Yesssss, AFFIRMATIVE. I plan to transform 36....but my body is not ready. >_<

That Cake version kicks ass, Cary! I like that version, fo sho -- I chose the version I did as a reference to a UK show called "Coupling". It's hilarious if you haven't seen it already!

Thanks Cobo -- Megatron wanted to crash the party....but he's kinda unloveable.

All the awesome couple's pics and music were awesome! Nice V-Day special =D Thank you for taking the time to create it!

Poor Megatron, though. Maybe if they made a Nightbird toy? :lol:

Nah, I think he's stuck with celebrating Singles Awareness Day (SAD).

LMAO!

The fembot I would've considered including I don't own: Megaempress

As much as I love Victorion, Takara's repaint on the fembiner was amazing....

I'd want them all. We don't have enough female 'Cons and 'Bots.

With the powers bestowed upon him by the Convoy Aggregate, "Super Black" Convoy could now travel at-will across time & space.

: BOW DOWN when we come to yo town

Under the guidance of Liege Maximo (who came to Nemesis Prime originally as his spirit Predacon "Skullgrin"), Super Black was hunting Megatron(s) across the multiverse.

: Oh, what a tangled web we weave...

He believed that Skullgrin could guide him to salvation -- to finally be cleansed of the taint from the Dead Matrix, and Unicron.

: They call me RUMPSHAKER

: Duocon Bodyguards & Li'l Megz (RIP)

And while he was at it, stop a tyrant or two from committing mass genocide.

: IMG_0491.PNG (390.34 KiB) Viewed 7859 times

He would spare only one on his path. He thought if he could find the Galvatron who had helped destroy Unicron and was freed of His shadow, he could also find peace... :MAXIMAL:

Unfortunately, Liege Maximo had other plans. He was seeking Galvatron in order to fuse with him and continue with his agenda: technological purity.

: You belong to me now...

Dead End, having become a herald of Unicron's will, tracks down Super Black by following his trail of mangled Megatrons and attempts to capture him -- but is instead reformatted by Liege Maximo.

: Till All Are Biomechanical

Reborn as Armada Unicron, the Chaos Bringer comes calling for his minions...

: Beyond Good & Evil

Liege Maximo believed by tampering with Dead End, he had summoned Unicron.

NOBODY SUMMONS UNICRON

: Then it pleases me to be the first.

(All he did was have Dead End txt Unicron about Deceptichips and Autobacons!)
---

: Until next time....take care of yourself, and each other.

Third and fourth pictures just look so brutal! Like the blade is covered in mech fluid and that cannon is just primed for destruction :shock:

Again, I would not mess with that bot!

Your captions crack me up! RUMPSHAKER wtf I now think of this whenever I look at my Big Convoy,
which happens to be sitting right by my computer at the moment. Love it! :lol:

The movie '86 movie references are perfect, too! Nicely included :MAXIMAL:

All around entertaining! :lol:

All Super Black wants to do is zoom-a-zoom-zoom-zoom and a poom-poom!

Big Convoy is a perfect bot to have at your desk, Wingz -- he's so poseable, and just cool to play around with.

News Credits: 3 · by **bodrock** » Tue Feb 20, 2018 7:00 pm

500 years earlier...

On the path to salvation with Skullgrin, Super Black time-warped into an era of the Combiner Wars.

: CW Devastator & Menasor, where u at?

In this reality, Megatron had not only destroyed Optimus Prime, but took the Matrix of Leadership for himself.

Super Black simply could not abide by that.

: Let's give 'em something to talk about

Teaming up with Elita-1 and the remaining Torch Bearers (who now combined to form Elita-Infin1te), they (including Skullgrin!) set off to retrieve the Matrix.

: INFIN1TE UNDISCOVERY

: Enter the Dragons

: Hun-Gurrr Strike!

: Tonfa-Smack-to-Master-Sword

: Hun-Gurrr Stomp!

: FATAL1TY

Megatron is summarily executed, and Super Black finds himself conflicted about his chosen path...and about Elita-1.

Before parting ways, Super Black Convoy gives Elita-Infin1te the Matrix of Leadership, entrusting her with this universe's safety...
