stupid Bay! You confuse me so much! Why would you say Megatron is not in the movie but hasbro makes a toy! Maybe I am just reading to deep into it being that is the only figure of megs we have seen so far. I like it. I hope they make a larger one

Stay tuned to seibertron.com for ally our Transformers related news!

I think it looks awesome and hell that is the best paint job any Movie Megatron has ever received!

Has anyone the packaging for FAB Megatron? Does it actually say his name? Perhaps he is Galvatron now.

Yes it states his name to be Megatron the toy is actually called "Cannonblast Megatron".

Damn! I still think Megatron is in the movie. Why in sam hell would they make a new mold for something that won't get any screen time?

Remember, Wreckage got a toy, and was slated for the film, but got cut in the early stages. Perhaps this is the same kind of thing: Megatron was in some of the early script treatments, and was later phased out... but he did get some concept art (tank), and the concept went to the Hasbro, and Hasbro started making toys. It makes sense to try to capitalize on the Megatron name, even if he's not going to feature in the film...

We never got to see Smokescreen or Ramjet in the first movie, and they got FABs as well. They have to stock the shelves with all sorts of price points, and it all has to say ROTF on it.

Come on people, think about it. Megatron is a popular character. Put his name on something and people are going to buy it

Don't forget they also have to keep the rights to the names. Mind you, it's fairly commonplace in this fandom.

Right, but Smokescreen and Ramjet were just repaints of existing molds. I think that the more apt comparison is Arcee and Wreckage... neither was in the movie or video game, but both got toys, mainly because both were planned to be in the movie, but got cut during pre-production. Not wanting to let the work on them go to waste, Hasbro produced the toys anyway.

True, but Arcee and Wreckage have something to do with the movie now, Arcee is in the movie and Wreckage is a part of the prequel, I wouldn't think they would make a Magetron new mold for a prequel. Perhaps for the future maybe if not in June. Besides, it may be just me but are that many people going to buy this FAB????

For some reason that tank reminds me of a tank from a video game. Cant think of the name though. Better than the Megatron from the first movie but still not Megatron. Movie Megatron is still the worst Megatron concept.

Didn't Bay announce that he was going to intentionally put out false rumors? I'm sure Megatron will be in the movie.

Anyway, does anybody actually buy these FABs?

Three groups:
1. Kids under ages 10-8
2. Avid collectors
3. Customizers
Hope that helps.

that tank mode reminds me of a Metal Slug.

im betting megatron is in the film somehwere other wise we would not have seen this figure and concpte art for megatron in robot mode, & tank mode

Im not getting exciting till I see Voyager , Ultra or leader class.

His head tucks away neatly into his *** that's one step ahead of his 2007 movie toy anyways.

Yeah - for the first film, they only made FABs for characters who were ACTUALLY IN THE FILM (or repaints thereof). We didn't get an FAB Arcee, we didn't get an FAB Wreckage.

I think if Hasbro just wanted to milk the line and put an FAB Megs out there, then they could easily have just repainted the old mold again.

The fact that it's a new mold makes me think he's in the film.

i see shades of blaster master in the design
