Paid on June 24th, received email confirmation of shipment on Aug 25th, and last night when I come home from out of town, the box is right there at the door. Very careful packing, and NO ORANGE BARREL PLUG! I can't believe it! The box is sealed and looks never opened.

Cheers!

It comes with 20 some red pellets but they don't go any far though, 'cause the spring in the Megatron is pretty weak. I took one and shot at my wife's butt in close range, and she played dead!

A kindly reminder: when transform Megatron’s chest, it’s very hard to lift the chest as describe in the instruction, and I ended up bending the barrel by force and damaged some paint. Later on I took the entire chest off and re-installed it, now it’s easier to be lifted. So be very careful when doing that.

yeah i had a real hard time i wasn't sure if i was doing something wrong or not and it popped off. i was like oh SH*^ i just broke this. it took me a little while to work it back into place to where the spring worked again but i fixed it.

Push the left side of the chest up first ,and it moves up. Push that upper side by moving it back and forth with caution until that upper chest part entirely pops out. Then you move the trigger by pushing it sideways easily back ,and then fold it down under his side.

I was at Toynk yesterday and Tim there had four or five Encore Megatron's in stock, all without the barrel plug.

Is he better or the same as the other book Japan reissue Megatron?
