sorry to do this but i have to correct you, the expression is 'i couldn't care less', meaning that it is not possible to care any less than you currently do, ie. you dont care.

saying that you could care less is saying that you do care about it..

i blame some idiot american in the past slurring his couldnt into a could and it being spread around from then on.. but either way, you should say 'couldnt', 'could' makes no sense at all, and in fact means the opposite of what you are trying to say

Pedantry! I doff my hat to you, Sir.

I'm not being funny, I wholeheartedly agree with you. "Could care less" doesn't make sense in this context. I might add that this comes up quite frequently, and in fact appeared on this board not a week ago. "[...] idiot american [...]" might have been a bit harsh, though.

Anyway, this is off-topic. This Megatron does look somewhat better.

Of course I don't like movie Megatron, but I like your pic, fits where the movie is going. You know what brothers me even more about the movie design? His head. It's not soild enough, you can almost see a small being inside. I hate those bitty ugly pointy teeth, and no matter how hard you try to change the design, it's still not Megatron. Maybe in the film, the character, and whoever will voice him, will save Megatron. Then finally maybe we can say that's Megatron alright, somewhere in that mess. Wrong body, wrong head, but it's Megatron?

Good job on the pic thoug, His eyes bring him more together.

Damn, I still want a huge arm cannon.

*edit

You know, when I was a kid, the way I related to Megatron was by getting any type of tubing, and taping it to my arm. I think kids would do the same thing if given the chance. I see a huge marketability in something that could attach to a kids arm as a weapon. It can be as techy as you like, and still be a gun in a kids eyes. And, since it doesn't simulate a real firearm, no orange tip. Put a damn flashlight bulb in it and have it fire from a handheld trigger. Have it make noises.

At this point, I'm ok with the head. Just give him the damn arm cannon already!

wow, I'm nit picky about those kinds of things too, and I myself did something so dumb (Man do I feel hypocritical right now):oops: I'm sorry for the bit of confusion there, and I do thank you for the correction.

Lol... I was in SEVENTH grade and had painted a paper towel roll black, followed by taping it to my arm. X D

hehe, yeah I remember in grade 8 I somehow mounted an industrial size roll on my arm, put bottle rockets in it..lit it. THen I aimed it waaaay down the block at my friend who was fixing his bike.

He laughed cause he saw us from so far away, like it would ever hit him..."har har"


it did.

The first head at the top, is starting to grow on me; however, I am still bothered by one thought - why doesn't the head have a solid helmet? Why didn't the designers just make a normal helmet? It would have looked less strange and played better homage to Megatron.

edited for grammar error and clarification.

He'd be an incredible player model for the upcoming Unreal Tournament 3, but still doesn't seem to make much of a leader for a robot army.

It's acceptable, at any rate.

The battle mode give him a "Evil Emperor" look...

It looks good but he remins me of dinobot from beast wars can you do him in those colors see if he resembles more.

Thanks for those touched up pics of Megatrons noodle. Makes it look better, and that is really saying something! BTW, I really like your sig, it made me chuckle.

Ugh, looks terrible either way.

And where's my frickin' ball-and-chain?

He still has sharp teeth. :(

I like it better ,but I still don't really care for it. I'm going to wait and see it on the big screen ,moveing before I completely make my decision. I like the silver and blue ,part of my problem with the design was the lack of contrast. I really would like a big gun either over the shoulder on attached to one arm ,but that makes less since because his current alt mode is a jet. Maybe if sequels are done his alt mode will change to something with a big gun and he will get a BFG.
