That handsome devil is the Chronicles release! I waited ninja patience style. For years. Never had a G1 Megatron OR that DotM Megatron, and then BOOM, up on Amazon for like $80 shipped. Probably not a great deal BUT I DON'T CARE!! This was probably 15 months ago..I was super pleased. Actually, almost 2 years!! It was before I got Apollyon or CW leader
Huh! I thought the one in your pic was the standard release, and I was all "damn, if he looks that good then the Chronicles version must be DOPE AF"

Yeah, he's the Chronicles. Loose knees and hips though. Also, transforming the front of the truck is somewhat annoying as things don't want to move!

I really do like my DotM Megatron. It is my favorite movie Megatron toy, at least until I get my hands on the new guys!

I believe that gerwalk mode is called dolphin face. :lol:

He's not bad, a little finicky trying to get his cloak and shoulder armor to line up, but the paint on this one is awesome. His vehicle mode scales almost perfectly with the Dark of the Moon Lunar Fire Optimus Prime I brought with me today (as well as Megatron). So that's funny.

I just happened on it when I was transforming him, I'm sure it has been shown before, and dolphin face works!! :lol:

@carytheone, I would've expected an Ecco the Dolphin reference :lol:

Well, here it is. Completely disorganized!!

I don't even know where it's going anymore. That bin infront of what is on display is Titans Return and random other stuff. I dig through it daily and grab a few figures. Or I bypass it and just grab MPs to toss around. Good times.

I've been on a Bayverse kick lately, dang it.
Movie leader to Age of Extinction leader.

That's a crazy difference in vehicle modes!!

I also just now have the regrets for selling Movie Premium voyager Ratchet.

Where are the bot mode pics? They started in bot mode, I converted them to alt mode, and then didn't feel like taking pics of bot mode after I converted them back

This guy is with me today.

Ahhh, Movie Optimus, still have that figure, or should I say my kids have him now

, I still enjoy messing around with him, the kids also have Movie Megatron which is an awful figure IMO

Thanks for the heads up on Movie Megatron, as I was going to see about getting a voyager of him!! There's something rattling around in one of Movie Optimus' feet..gotta do some surgery. He's such a chunk of plastic!!

Oh trust me, I know!! It's driving me nuts..I think I'll be ok if I get a bigger bin for the Titans Return/RiD bots that are below. I've also determined the best storage option for figures is alt mode!! It's taken me 30+ years to just now realize that :lol:

So, who likes Megatron? Here he is with deluxe Dark of the Moon Lunarfire Optimus Prime. As you can see, alt modes scale just about PERFECT. I'm using the height/width of the cab and the size of the wheels as a reference!!

Gerwalk mode scales well, too.

And here's the current desk bots.

No, the true last knightmare will be when 50 Shades Freed comes out :twisted:

*sigh*

So, moving on.

Here's Alternators Windcharger, but as WJ88 pointed out, clearly Overdrive (which is who he was in Binaltech).

"But you have his gun facing the wrong way."

Nope, the stupid Hasbro version didn't come with the driveshaft portion that should be the barrel of the gun so that's how I have it. :lol:

He's pretty dang awesome. Wouldn't mind Decepticharge. I mean I have two Ford GTs and two RX-8s, I used to have one WRX, might as well have two S2000s!! Need to get some WRXs again..and maybe Camshaft so I can have two RSX/Integras..!

Hound first though. Neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed a good Hound.

You're actively hunting down Alternators? I think I have them all besides RavageII and Rumble, they just never showed up in sotres here and I'm not keen on their aftermarket prices. And I have a healthy handful of BT's.... I'm not sure if I'll get ALL of them. The way I was working was is if they were drastically different from their Alt counterparts. So like, Smokescreen with his shiney diecast, or Yellow Tracks. Whereas most of them you can't tell the difference. They're not too expensive though from sites like Mandarke :-?
