there has to be a way to turn something like this, painted in silver:

Think about it, a Gun turret doesn't violate the toy gun laws cause it's not a hand gun, and is considerably smaller, plus this megatron could still function as the original did, with other's being able to use him.. instead of a Handgun, he'd be a giant gun turrett, that skywarp, starscream or even soundwave could use, just like the old concept.. and no mass shifting!! Not to mention how neatly a Gun turret ties into the concept behind Galvatron!! it's a freaking no Brainer!!!

they should have done that and made a Classics Deluxe Megatron like a Gun turret and look like the classic G-1 style..

I've seen a picture of gun turret transform into G1 Megatron before. I'm not sure if it's a concept art or CGI or custom toy. I have faint memory of it being made in Germany or by a German.

It was superb! If only i can find it again.

I believe I've seen that too, & IIRC, it was made from a 20th Prime, & it turned into some kind of german gun turrent.
Of course, I could be wrong.....

You can't be wrong. We both saw something.

That would be good!

It looks about how you would think it looks, honestly. I've tried that with mine before. The only problem with the combo is that classics prime's truckbed is a bit higher up than the trailer is, so it really dosen't fit very well.

YOu know, speaking of trailers....wouldn't it be cool if they made a transforming car-carrier trailer for magnus, so we could have an updated G1-ish armored Magnus, instead of another white prime clone.
