For Hasbro, their releasing Computron is a huge deal. For Takara, their releasing Computron is just standard procedure.

What baffles me is why Afterbreaker has the retooled head and cockpit, but NOT the retooled guns

The guns were probably a later Takara addition, like Devastator's.

Finally, after getting teased for a few months, we bring to you the Unite Warriors version of Victorion, now named Decepticon Megatoronia! Megatoronia is comprised of 5 all new characters which include Megaempress from Pyra Magna, Luna Club from Stormclash, Moonheart from Skyburst, Flowspade from Dust Up, and Trickdiamond from Jumpstream! Megaempress appears to be based on Megatron himself in terms of paint work, and the special hands and feet are included in Megatoronia's set instead of the standard Hand/Foot/Guns. TFYuki brought this to our attention from Takara Tomy Mall Check out all the awesome pictures below, and let us know what you think of this new combiner in the comments section below!

"Megatronia"!?!?!?!?

SO did not see that one coming. Certainly wasn't expecting all completely new characters.

This is so surreal!

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Not gonna lie, I really want it

[Hellscream9999]

This is how you do unified but different deco's.

This is amazing, I hate how much I want this.

Man, I need a job

[RiddlerJ]

I like the colors better than Victorion. Plus, another Decepticon combiner.

What...?! This thing's from unknown parts of left field. It's so far out of left field it's almost into the right!









I...kind of love it.

The best part?




More canon fem-bots

[Sabrblade]

Huh. Looking closer at their names, though "Lunaclub" and "Trickdiamond" are written in Latin script English, the names written for the two in Katakana transliterate into English instead as "Lunaclover" and "Trickdia", respectively.

Guess we'll have to wait and see what the final packaging names them in Latin script, as we could have another "Minerva vs. Minelba" and "Greejeeber vs. Gregevor" on our hands.

They're named after suits in cards, so cool hope it stays, seems pretty deliberate as is

Also: Female megatron? All kinds of Shattered glass-esque doors just opened up. AU time!

Megatron's wife, apparently.

[DecepticonFinishline]

If only so many clowns hadn't voted for Autobot after voting for a female combiner.... :/

I want it soooooo baaaaad!!!

[Hellscream9999]

Shame it won't include the groove figure, the defensor torso just ends up looking so flat without it...

[Sabrblade]

Megaempress's ladder is a Fusion Railgun of equal power to Megatron's Fusion Cannon. That's awesome!

[D-Maximal_Primal]

This is how you do unified but different deco's.

Man, I need a job

You and me both.

I mean, I have a job, but it only covers what I need and some stuff. I need a job where I can afford to buy frikkin' SNIZZLESNIT like this. I really want this, even if I already have the exact same thing in different colors

I just noticed this now. This set is so awesome!!!

Megatron's wife, 4 limbs named after card suits, an all black with different colored highlights paint scheme, painted feet.

Ugh! I need money now!!!!!

Minerva/Minelba and Greejeeber/Gregevor are different ways to romanize the same words. Turning "clover" and "dia" into "club" and "diamond" is veering a little more into translation, as they are incorporating the Japanese names of the card suits and using the English names in the latin rendition. For now, I'm going to assume these are the intended names for English audiences.

[ausbot]

Dammit I want this now

[RhA]

Galaxy Force hommage. That's smart.

[Editor]

Megaempress is the most interesting and unexpected turn for that mold. Honestly thought it was going to be Lyzack.

Not worried about the loss of the chest bike seeing if I go for this set, I doubt I'd showcase them combined.

[Bounti76]

Hey, Takara? 1993 called and it wants it's color scheme back.

That is all sorts of sad. I collect fembots but may have to pass on these ladies. The colors make them look like knockoffs.

[Noideaforaname]

Huh.

I quite like how the Helicopter twins have a patch in the other's color, unites them without being as literal as the Hasbro version. Plus the shared name prefix theme is a neat touch.
