Another possibility is Siege Megatron and Soundwave with no "dirt" and some chromed parts to make them look like the G1 toys.

What are the chances that "red" is short for "redeco" and these are Siege Toys redeco'd into G1 color schemes?

About as likely as Will said it was in the article.

I'm starting to get concerned about the number of Megatrons being pumped out, with the number of Siege (and, last I checked, 35th anniversary) Megatrons still clogging the shelves. If this is a redeco/retool of Siege or ER Megs, this will be the fifth version of essentially the same voyager Megs released at retail in just two years, with a whopping 3 of them as Wal-Mart exclusives.
Of course, maybe these are reissues of G1 Soundwave and G2 Megatron in G1 colors, or something like that.

NERF guns and the like aren't remotely realistic-looking, though. G1 Megatron, on the other hand, is an expertly-crafted replica of a Walther P38. It's possible that he could pass muster if he was cast entirely in the same color of transparent plastic, to prove that he's just a toy, but retailers are still leery.soundwave765 wrote:So we can have NERF guns... and other weapon related toys but we can not have a G1 Megatron!!??

What if it's a reissue of Nerf gun Megatron?
