Speaking of which, I forgot to mention 1 more problem I have with it: there's no red streak on his face, like he had in the movie. I figured the leader was big enough to have that detail.
And I would like to see a comparison shot of the 2007 movie Megatron and TLK Megatron in jet mode. Doesn't matter if leader or voyager, but prefer leader.

Ugh... Do I have to?
It's been AGES since I transformed my '07 leader Megs.
Well, guess I'm on it. Hold on for an hour or two.

Just for you, Rodimus Prime.
That '07 Megs is a nightmare to figure out because the vehicle mode is just so... random. How the hell can we know by instinct what go where? Anyway, first and foremost...
Getting REALLY tired of your ****, Hasbro. Notice that one small tailfin is just not there. One more QC issue, one more toy to return. Jesus F Christ.
Anyway, Comparisons. Although TLK jet take more surface area, '07 is MUCH more heavy and massive looking. It's also a very alien design that is not aerodynamic at all. '07 Megs also don't give a crap, covering his face with just a tiny panel. Bet the Prime design was base on that one. TLK is MUCH more streamlined and logical as a flying vehicle.
Enjoy these shots:
I improvised a flight stand for '07 Megs. Because he's NOT returning into robot mode for a while.
And now, to put back TLK Megs into bot mode, put him back into the box, and exchanging him at TrU tomorrow.

Anyways, he looks pretty cool and I thought about getting him.but with this lines (and pretty much all recent Hasbro transformers) qc issues and the fact I still need a voyager megatron I wanted to look into it more first. Does anyone know where I can find info or reviews?

You're right, it looks like they sculpted a tiny visor but painted over the brow instead for... a bigger visor, I guess? Why not sculpt it that way then? Weird.
Maybe HLJ bought up enough Calibur Optimus Primes from the stores to get a Gold Vector Shield for each one. The shield itself is a separate, store-exclusive campaign item that comes free with a certain quantity of TF products purchased, so HLJ could have bought up enough stock from the stores to get the shields to go with the figures.EunuchRon wrote:I just got my Calibur Optimus, and he came with this tucked inside the package!
