Encore Megatron and Reissue Megatron

Postby dabattousai » Tue Oct 23, 2007 12:45 am

So I was looking at Seibertron's gallery of G1 Megatron and notice he bought a reissue and pointed out that it had a mould change. I was wondering if they kept that mould change with the Encore version. I'm thinking of buying the Reissue version, but if Encore is staying to the original 1984 mould with no changes, then that sold me. Can anyone tell me?

Motto: "Run away! Run away!"
I have both the original G1 Megatron and the Encore version. I haven't taken the Encore out of the box though, but it IS a different mold.
It is best illustrated by the next picture in that series.

That's the actual side you can see in window of the box.

Alright, so I guess they kept with the new version with Encore. Guess I'll buy the Reissued version, comes with more stuff and a cool box :)

Thanks for the help :D

I have another question. Does Megatron actually shoot those plastic bullets it comes with?

Yes, the original Japanese one and the TFC one both fired the bullets.
