As one who always thought the Voyager Megatron was ugly...

I now have done a complete 180 on the mold...

the Metallic Voyager Megs in robot mode MISB is beautiful.

When properly painted with better looking ice, Megs stands forever frozen in his Best Buy box...

Now that Megs and Ratchet sit on my work desk... they look so cool.

Yeah, I couldn't believe how great they looked. They're let me out of my box so I can kick plain megatron and ratchet to the trash bin beautiful.

Well I hope these things are in good supply because I don't wanna have that crap happen where it's so limited you can't find them and have to resort to Ebay. But looks like from your picture they have a nice supply. I'd prefer they put them out on movie release day though so we could just get them all in one fell swoop.

And on a side note, that is a very cool GANTZ box there.

I dunno man... today is Friday... the pics above were taken at the largest Best Buy in Houston... unless they are sitting on a couple in the back, this doesn't seem like a whole lot. Tuesday is a very long time away... heck, Sunday is a long time away...

It looked like about 10 of each to me. When the cashier told me it was going on sale Tuesday and I told her I didn't want to chance them running out she told me that I could bring my receipt in Tuesday and get an adjustment so if anyone wants to try that.

FYI, blue, the Best Buy is Clear Lake is about 2 ft bigger. =P

Considering that this is still a Voyager Class... Allspark Prime would be more to scale... isn't Robovision Prime leader class?

Nope, voyager. Same toy all around just repainted.

Voyager Prime = Regular
Robovision = Light blue w/metallic paint job
Allspark = G1 redeco

Robovision, hands down... Especially since Robovision Prime has the Metallic paintjob as well... (well, at least the 'chrome' parts!)
