The Transformers Prime toy line info continues to pour in. We now have two small low quality images of what is likely to be the Transformers Prime Voyager class Megatron courtesy of TFW2005 member hanypa. Is this the same Voyager Megatron we saw this morning in the Argos scan? It's hard to tell since both the scan and these images are rather small and grainy. Check out the images below.

Looks mistransformed.

Need better pics.

Looks good so far. The left hand looks a little weird but it may just be mistransformed...

Rather than trying to be the first to post pics, why not just take quality pictures and THEN post?

whats going on with his shoulders?

Mis-Transformed.
NOT A COMPLAINT!
He looks AMAZING!
I Want EVERY TF Prime Figure.
EVERY SINGLE ONE!
Maybe switch around a few 1st additions for RID versions, but every character. I Really hope this doesn't bite the dust like animated. Damn, I miss animated.

Not too bad. Certainly a better Voyager than Optimus. Other than a Deluxe, there's nothing from First Edition to compare this to. The Deluxe is excellent, I'm assuming the Voyager is even better.

so.. in the show he's mostly chrome/bright silver.. yet his figure looks to have a decent amount of that disgusting brown plastic.. that makes no sense. hasbro uses the normal light grey plastic with everything, yet now, when it would actually make more sense.. they choose not to use it.

anyways, i like the mold.. i'm hoping this is the takara version and the hasbro one will look better (sorry, i was literally laughing out loud while i typed that lol)

Dude, it's poor lighting. He's not brown. He's silver in the catalog scan.

The catalogue scan's probably the photoshopped promotional image of the toy, I've stopped trusting those for colour accuracy for quite a while now...

That said, I REALLY REALLY hope you're right.

I know it'd gotta be bad lighting since some of his purple parts look black (or close to it) in those images to me.

well at least this one seems to look less like gigantor and more like Megatron, still dont like the tiny arm cannon

The toy appears to be slightly mis-trasformed in both modes. the mis-transformed jet mode looks like TM1 Waspinators jet mode.

I can't further judge the toy. till i see bigger,clearer & more accurately transformed toy pics.

whoa. I cant believe it ... a VOYAGER class megatron outside of movie-verse that actually LOOKS like a good transformer, as well as gets me excited.

Stoked.

Precisely what I hoped TF: Prime Megs would look like. I can't wait for him.

Needs better photos!! As Fry from Futurama would say, 'Can't tell if its Megatron or Bigfoot!!'

Im not liking this stumpy spaceship mode all the Megatron figures seem to have; I'm sure it's sleeker looking in the show. Still, at least this guy being ugly gives me an excuse not to buy him and jus mix and match with my animated Megs. Lord knows I don't need a longer wish list.

It looks like a claw weapon held by his left hand. It might be the piece infront of the cannon in jet mode. I think the shoulders are mistransformed aswell. They should be able to rotate down a bit more.

Take a good look at this close-up from the Argos website:

You might be right about the bad lighting, but I doubt good lighting will make it look silvery/grey. Surely it'd just look like a lighter brown.

I already want this. Megs has a sweet design and it looks like they're staying close to his on-screen appearance.

I'm a happy fanboy.

I hope that is a removable weapon and not just GIMMICK FIST.

Also note in these pictures, that while it could be blamed on bad lighting at a glance, notice that the claws are a completely different from the rest of him, where as the promo pics say they should also be silver, here his body looks tan where as his claws are brown. So yeah, he's brown.

I had exactly the same initial reaction.

Shoulders look weird. My call is mistransformed.

Courtesy of the HDRMcShazzle twitter feed we have a couple of additional images of the newly released in the UK Voyager Class Transformers Prime Megatron. Hopefully clear images and video of this guy will be coming soon. Images mirrored below.

I agree. I love the robot mode on this toy/media design. I really dis-like the alt mode. the front part looks like a wasp's head.

I'm not a fan of,"hey it looks like a jet because it's got 2 wings on the sides of the alt mode"

I don't mind cybertronian styled jet modes. as long as they look cool,sleek,powerful & not overly weird like distorted things like this TF Prime,megatron jet mode.

IMHO,Personally since this TF Prime,Megatron media/toy designs is a loose homage based off TF 2007 Movie megatron. one can easily pretend the 2007 voyager movie megatron toy is TF Prime's,Megatron toy.

...looks fantastic. O_o

I LOVE that new packaging for the Voyagers. Dang.
