No they are not. Megastorm has gray camo, Megatron has purple. Megastorm has black on his face while Megatron does not. Megastorm has a few other decals different from Megatron.Albatross250 wrote:Insurgent wrote:It has G2 on it, so it's more like is Megatron. Megastrom never was G2 megastorm, was it?
G2 Megatron and Megastorm are both the same, except the Insignia of course

G2 Megatron and Megastorm are both the same, except the Insignia of course
but what if the Titan Master is actually Megastorm?
Coincidence?
I know they're the same mould, but Megatorm didn't have G2 in his identification, because he was Beast Wars (neo or II, I forget which). His titan master being Megastorm is a good idea, but it's takara so it's the japanese way of doing headmasters. Meaning it's Megatron.
Which means in the manga, after Megatron lost his Galvatron transtector, he'll replace it with a G2 Megatron transtector!

Less. In Japanese continuity the real robot is the head, so I like the idea of an alternative dimension where Perceptor's consciousness remained in the "Nijika" puppet and ultimately developed the ability to "head on!"
I'm curious to see it either way, the Hasbro edition looks kind of bland.

If I had my druthers, I'd have wanted Takara to forgo releasing Windblade as Windblade herself, and instead release the whole figure completely redecoed as Nijika herself in a new, full-sized Transformer body, so that the previous Takara Legends Windblade could stay as Windblade while this new figure could be her sister, Nijika, as a Transformer.

I'll stick with the hasbro Windblade, since I haven't gotten any of the targetmasters, a bit too much money wise for me (but any MP with a targetmaster is high on my list!)

Yes yes. The point being, it won't be a blue Tank, nor would it be actually Reverse Convoy. Maybe Inverted Prime? UpsideDown Megatron?
