Check out over 270 photos of these two figures in the massive Seibertron.com galleries by clicking here. Don't forget to check out the rest of our Transformers Animated galleries!

Man, that Voyager Prime is awesome. Might wait and see what we get with Earth Mode Megatron before getting the Cybertron version. Nice shots!

this is possibly my favourite prime, admittedly hes less 'robotic' than previous standard ex vehicle versions but I like the 'classical' physique coupled with an interesting transformation and amazingly for a modern toy, a reduction of unnecessary detailing!

At first I didn't know if I thought TFA Megs was cute or not, but I take back everything I ever said to the contrary. He's way cute and I'm getting both Cybertron and Earth modes!

Even cuter is the "dull surprise" expression.

I like how simple and clean prime is. The chest "windows" are beautiful. The axe is sure large.

He's gonna be a stylized Osprey type helicopter. Very nice in Robot mode by the way:

Here:

Although so far its only Leader class. Don't think we've seen a voyager Earth Mode for Megs.

Back on topic though, can wait for these to come out. Voyager prime looks really cool. Although I'm not completely sure about his axe.

Still very nice looking Prime.

Again, Thanx a bunch for the great Galleries Ryan.

Nice! Looking forward to these. Animated sure did win me over after my initial shock and disdain upon seeing the first teaser images.

Any chance of a pic with Prime's axe attached to his back, or does it not do that anymore? I would guess that it needs the gun to hold it on?

I think Prime is by far the best looking Cybertronian scooter to date! Or is that his earth mode? Whatever the case, I wonder what figures are able to ride him? You'll need some articulated fingers to grab ahold of those handle bars, though...

I actually think Megs looks half way decent, however. If his transformation isn't totally lame like the movie voyager, I might actually consider buying him. But I'm sure it is and my collection will remain Animated-free.

I got nothing but love for Voyager Prime. I'm definitely passing on the deluxe Cybertron version. As far as Voyager Megs is concerned, I think I'll wait for Leader Earth mode Megatron. The Cybertron version does nothing for me.

Nice job Seibs. I love the galleries. I love how they turned out, I want Prime but I'm not too sure about Megs yet.

Ah. Hope it gets released Voyager sized too. I'm not big on dropping cash on the Leaders very much. But that's just me. That does look nice though.

I'm not into this Megatron voyager. maybe its the alt mode... :-?

I wish there were more pics of his vehicle mode without the "trailer". And I might do some kitbashing on that facemask...

Overall, great figure and awesome gallery.

i'll also agree with those not really caring for cybertron megs.

its not a bad robo mode but he'd have looked way better with the cannon seeming less like a battering ram hanging on his arm, he'd have looked very cool if that thing was detachable and could also be fixed on the shoulder. the alt mode is quite weak, i know its an alien ship but its just not coherent enough, it suffers from the 'fold robot in half' cybertron toys syndrome. alien or not it just doesnt give teh impression of a vehicle, its more like a hand held communication device or something, anyway the rest of the line is awesome, only lockdown (go on, hit me) is another im not sure of.

I for one think Megs's Robot mode more then makes up for his vehicle mode.

If my finances allow me I'll be getting all deluxe,voyager and leader class versions of the faction leaders.

Unless we do get a leader-class prime.
Good thing we've heard NOTHING about one of those.

Not sure if I'll get both versions of Bulkhead though.

Hey Ryan, how do Voyager Optimus and Megatron compare to the deluxe versions in the 2-pack? Optimus seems a little watered down(not as intracate transformation and not as nice weapons) and Megatron just seems to be to scaled down from the voyager.

If you're financially cautious or don't like to buy every single Transformer that gets released, I'd recommend just getting the Voyager class versions of both of these figures. I'm not a big fan of the Deluxe versions of either of these characters. They're OK, but they're just going to get put in the TFA rubbermaid tub while the Voyagers sit here on my computer desk.

That's what I thought. I think I'll skip both Earth versions for now and hold out for a Leader version. The Cybertron Prime seems neat. 3 mode axe WTF!
