I never thought I'd see the day. When a 3rd party creates a add on that I desperately need. Hopefully this is for Rotf Leader scale Megatron.

After a second glance,I don't see any tank turrent on that arm. Hopefully it has a secondary attachment piece to make the tank mode have a turrent on it.

I hope this newer arm is not really skinny like the left arm on the HasTak toy is. I kinda like the bulky sculpted right arm on the HasTak toy. I just wanted it to be more articulated.

The tank turret's the other arm This looks like just a replacement for the tiny arm, but I agree, they should've also make a better, articulated turret arm. Hope this comes in the Dark Energon version colors.

Your right.

I don't need a 3rd party replacement arm for the skinny arm. What I need is a 3rd party replacement arm for the tank turrent arm. with more articulation in it.

I actually like this arm idea , the fact it has a bigger shoulder a thicker arm and no captain hook hand that make the proportions look a lot more correct is not a bad thing at all .

Other than the arms imo it's a nice looking piece, i would also would like a better turret arm with an elbow joint at least , i might pull this guy out of retirement if these arms happen . .

I might be tempted to buy the replacement for the skinny arm. If the price is low enough. The temptation might be easier. If theres a promise of a replacement tank turrent arm in the works also. Selling the replacements left & right arms in a kit would probably make more buy this.

What Megatron is that? Why did they give it such a withered-looking arm?

Revenge of the Fallen Leader Megatron, I believe. He has such a withered arm because that's how he looked in the Movie:




Oh, wait....why is that last one there...

Yeah ROTF Leader Megatron , I'm assuming the upgrade is to fix this anorexic hook they've called an arm , i can't think of any other toy in need of the transplant .

It does look more screen accurate. But isn't this, like, 4 years too late?

It's never too late to create a 3rd party TF items fans need.
3rd party TF items are made by fans for fans. Fans don't throw anything out,Most are horders.

Not to bad at all . Not sure if want to buy it now , it's been a while since they teased this .

Yeah, RotF is a while gone now. I wonder how this transforms into vehicle mode...

Wondering who here plans to buy this.

Might have bought this, Has it been a Two arms replacement kit. As I wanted a more articulated tank turrent arm.

I planned to buy this, not anymore. They took way too long to release and the hype for it in me had died. Unless they announce a new turret arm for this then maybe I'll consider getting a set, assuming it doesn't take another 2 years.

I would buy this if they had given him a proper claw arm as well.

It makes me sad that DOTM voyager Megatron is the best of the movie Megatrons (IMHO, closely followed by the ROTF voyager). The leader really is lacking, and I don't understand why the secondary market values him so highly.

Hmm, this looks pretty good. Glad to see a movie based third party item for once.

Also, it'll be great for customs.

I will buy it & the right arm as well when it becomes available.

I would totally buy this ... if it wasn't 2 movies too late.

Good toys are never too late.

True, but IMO that was neither a good toy, nor a good movie, and my enthusiasm for both has long since waned. That figure has been in a box in the basement for quite some time.

On the other hand, I still have the voyager version of RotF Megatron on display, and have used his carcass for several custom figures as well. So a voyager sized replacement arm might interest me.
