Our friends in the Transformers Galaxy Hong Kong Fans Group have updated their facebook page with another Transformers Prime First Edition gallery. This time we get a look at the Deluxe Megatron featured in the Entertainment two-pack along with a Deluxe Optimus Prime and DVD. Images mirrored below.

LOL he looks like a tank driver sticking his head out in vehicle mode. Really nice fig though, but i wish his cannon was bigger and less cartoony, but i'm sure we can sort that out...

He looks outstanding .. this might be one of my favorite Megatron toys to date...

Am I the only one who thinks his jet mode is a slight homage to Jhiaxus? At least that's how it looks from the front.

Or have the designers already shed light on that?

This is the reason I'm getting the Entertainment Pack.

Makes me wonder how good a Voyager version would be.

I wish too that his cannon was much larger. I hate how only his chest has the most chrome and where his head is in alt mode is a bit lame. I would have to don him with another name and make him like a bodyguard to another Megatron and this will remain in robot mode...'nuff said! :VEHI:

the headface still screams BW Dinobot, but it looks decent enough. I still need to see how much the pack will cost me, but the Optimus is ok, and I kinda want the kids, so for the right price, this will be mine.

Annnd that is why they aren't showing us a Voyager version. They know a set seller when they see it.

Looks cool, but Deluxe class Megatrons are usually disappointing. I'll probably wait for the Voyager or Leader version.

If there is one, that is. Look at DOTM's toyline.

He looks cool I have only 1 gripe his head is visible in vehicle mode if it was on the botttom of the jet i wouldn't mind but its on the top i'm still getting it

Looks pretty nice, but I'll definitely be waiting for a Voyager.

What about it? It's got a Voyager class Megatron. And when you look at the Movie line as a whole (which I think you should), we've had multiple Voyager-class Megatrons, and a Leader class one.

Remember the last toyline based on a TF cartoon series - Animated? The first wave of Animated figures contained a "preview" 2-pack with Deluxe versions of Optimus and Megatron, just like Prime, but they still made a Voyager and Leader class, plus an awesome repaint of the Leader mold.

You fellas have absolutely NO IDEA how much I want a Voyager class version of Megatron. Even as a Deluxe, Prime Megatron is just complete sexiness! =P~

by **eyl** » Thu Nov 03, 2011 4:18 pm

If you look a few posts down on their facebook, you can see the prototype of X-TRANSBOTS X-3 The Tyrant of Darkness (Galvatron) in alt mode. What class do you think it's in?

News Credits: 101 · by **-Kanrabat-** » Thu Nov 03, 2011 4:39 pm

As expected.

Awesome robot mode, but the vehicle mode is a big pile of nothing with a peek-a-boo head driving himself.

I do hope the voyager will be better.

by **WheelTracks** » Thu Nov 03, 2011 4:58 pm

The poses for this figure looks endless. Thanks for sharing more awesome images. Definitely a buy for me as I'm a big Megatron fan.

Make no mistake, Hasbro will release a voyager version. Until they do, I will enjoy this one. IMHO I think they nailed it for a deluxe. Fans may think the gun is too small and his head is showing in alt mode but out of all the TFPrime deluxes, Megatron appears to be the most accurate to the TV series. I just wish Hasbro had put more effort in to deluxe Optimus. Fake windows over the real ones? :???:

C'MON Hasbro! :BOOM:

i think we can all agree.....a little less cartoony. a bigger gun. and a voyager class. he looks good tho. but not going to replace my classics megatron

I've not had time to ''get into'' the prime show yet, and even tho it looks a lil cartoony like animated I still like his overall look.

His face reminds me of ROTF megatrons and the alt form of 06 megatron.

yeah what happened to animated.............it was cancelled here because lack of sales compared to the movie line.

that is what i hope doesnt happen to transformers prime. cause you know DOTM still has another year in its toyline

better than movie megatron but worse than animated & WFC. Robot mode wouldnt be bad if the gun was bigger and he looked more like megatron instead of something from a really old anime cartoon and the alt mode just needs to take care of the exposed head. Transformation & detail look pretty good for a deluxe but not worth picking up just for that. Prime line is looking pretty disappointing so far.
