A nice gallery of GDO Voyager Megatron has been posted by the facebook group Meteor Operation. As you know by now this figure sports the body of ROTF Bludgeon with a new Megatron head and some very nice paint apps. Look for this figure at a Toys'R'Us near you sometime this fall. Check out the eye candy below.

This could have been better. It's a movie mold with a G2 head... Two good things who really don't seem to like each other.

Did you like BotCon Gigatron? ;)

I don't have Movie Bludgeon at all, so he'll be welcomed in my collection big time.

This. This is just so...right. To me, everything clicks. I don't know why, but I love it to bits. It's a Megatron, a samurai, a tank, g2 neon colors. It's perfect.

Stateside release? Or no?

Am I the only person that sees a parliament judge (ie english judge with the powdered wig and face paint) when I look at that head?

Something about that face feels... off.

*snaps fingers* I got it! It's the smile. I just can see a Megatron having that kind of smirky grin on his face. It's so Starscreamish.

Which means that, if it weren't for the :CON: symbols (and a bit less purple with more gray), this figure would make a decent update to Megastorm instead. ;)

I wish this could have been a new mold.

Interesting...if I didn't already have Bludgeon I might consider it.

That smirk makes me go "Meh". I'd rather have a past Voyager mold retooled as G1/G2 Optimus, since I never had the priviledge of getting the first Classics toy, and I'm not going to pay an arm and a leg to get one from a scalper.

I'll stick it on my "Maybe" list.

Throw ROTF Bludgeon, Classics/Timelines Gigatron, and HFTD Banzaitron to that list.

Ugh...

That head is pretty fun looking but it does not fit AT ALL with that body. Also, why fluo green?

I may buy this ONLY if it come to Québec and ONLY if it's on sale.
I already have Bludgeon and Banzaitron afterall.

Nice but I wish he had different feet and some camo. As he looks now, he's a no for me.

I'm sure there's a better G2 Megatron coming from a 3P toy maker somewhere in the future.

I would have remolded the chest, the hands, feet, arms, legs, and waist.
Just sayan.

The head sculpt JUST DOESN'T GO WELL. A G1 head sculpt doesn't go with a bay-former body. You can argue all you want but I cannot picture Megs with chicken feet and tits.

Megs...a ninja? um...no.
Megs as a tank....HELL YA.
Megs with ninja swords....um no....but definitely with a large mace and a massive sword.
Megs with a MASSIVE Fusion Cannon.....OH HELLL YA!

This rendition is an epic fail.

Technically, he's supposed to be a samurai warrior. Animated Prowl prior to side-car upgrade would be the ninja.

This figure is supposed to have the G1-esque head sculpt because that's how the original G2 toy had it. And really, there aren't many Voyager tanks in recent years that could pass as a CHUG figure (ala ROTF Bludgeon). At least, none that come up out the top my head as of the writing of this post. What I would like to see is either a Deluxe or a Voyager version of the FOC Megatron design.

Well, that's a slice of horrible. I can't even begin to describe how it sucks, in my mind.

Eh, if you squint really, really, REALLY hard, it doesn't look too bad.

But I guess even then it still doesn't look good.

If I squint anymore, my eyes will be closed. And then it becomes nightmare fuel. And then my brain needs bleach. And I can't afford it. (The bleach, that is. Can't afford the bleach.)
