We just got a pretty nice Megatron in combiner wars, I hope they just leave him alone and save a spot for another character

He is a headmaster figure for galvatron.

aye but it's gonna suck if we get a crocodile Megatron in the Titans line! after...like you said...we got such a good tank Megatron in the CW line.


& even as Ironhidensh just stated! that Megatron is just a Headmaster for some other figure...feels a bit of a cop-out to me.........rather that what we've got before with the figure.

Honestly I wouldn't be upset with an alligator Megatron. It would be a deluxe and different enough from the combiner wars one that it's basically a different character.

That figure's name is Nucleon, not Megatron.

I am thinking, and don't quote me on it, but I am thinking that maybe they planned for Galvatron's (Megatron) Titan Master to also be used for a crocodile Megatron

Supposedly he's turned into Galvatron... that's they're insinuating with the Megatron-styled Titan Master. Note he's not called "Megatron" but rather "Nucleon".

could be, SillySpringer, all very relevant theories

i guess we'll just have to wait & see

They can call it whatever they want, but that cheap little bastard is Megatron and we all Damn well know it.

it could very well be


but i'm sure we'll find out over time

Exactly!

*sigh* it just feels cheap to me....if that does turn out to be the case

or at least they could've given him a leader class sized body to attach to(if Galvatron already isn't one).

Galvatron's a Voyager... as he was originally meant to be. Look up the history behind Universe 2008 Galvatron.

Well, it's to tie in with the fiction. They are Titanmasters not Headmasters.

What this means is that it's the figures piloting a mech that looks like them for very convenient purposes, via a very throwback orthodoxy

So, for instance, Blaster is a mech that just looks like Blaster, but is actually piloted by Blaster, is my understanding of the concept, hope that helps

Yup

Megatron's had lookalikes with their own names before.

Maybe it should've been named Megaplex

I still dont get it. Why would Hasbro do another Megatron, we just got 2 last year. It's time for other characters to shine. Or would you we a bumblebee in the TR line as well?

That's a very good point! coz the Bumblebee issue has been raised before in the CW threads.....as to why they never included him? i guess we'll have to wait n see

it's still referred to as a Transtector isn't it?(the body the head attaches to) or am i wrong on that?

Is there no way to take off the visor? I kinda would like him without it.

Maybe hasbro has finally become aware of how tired we are of 'bee. Since he's already the star of a show, they don't want to put us over the edge by including him in every gen line too

It probably is - I don't keep up with the fiction, I was just simplifying thing so as to avoid confusion, lest anyone else no know what the name was for (I certainly didn't/don't)

aye true, we still don't know what's over the horizon with the Titan line yet? so maybe Bee'll be in there somewhere, but i'm not holding my breath.

Nor, am I, I'm honestly tired of seeing that little yellow **** on shelves; I'd be really happy if they dug out hotshot and gave him a chance to revel in the spotlight for a bit; he's way more compelling than bee ever was, and made for a better personality than any of the recent character archetypes - one reason I enjoy sideswipe so much in rid
