What is the plan for this new SG line? Did they ever mention that it will continue with more waves?
And here is another question. Gnaw, Wreck-Gar & Slag have already sold out on Pulse. But none of the Shattered Glass have. Does that mean they're not selling well? Or does it mean they're gonna have a lot more because it's their exclusive? I love this line, except for Blurr & don't want it to fail. I hope it keeps going.
I think if SG continues on after this subline, it'll be through SELECTS only, rather than continuing this subline unfortunately. While this line isn't selling out immediately, very few SELECTS sell out immediately

See one post above yours.
I did. Still doesn't answer why its him, and not an actual Megs. Transmetal 2 Megs for example would have been suitable.
You wouldn't get the rainbow effect, it's a megs for every colour.

Transmetal 2 Megs is red, though.

I hope that SG Ultra Magnus design is revisited in the future
The skull/ghost face is pretty cool

Are you talking about the bludgeon mold? I see a purple con symbol, so I thought it was an Overlord redco from club fiction. Honestly i have no idea what's going on here.

SG Ultra Magnus is the one in the Delta Magnus colors and using the 2010 Lazer Optimus Prime mold

Ooohhhh, I did not know this existed. I have RTS Optimus and TFSS Scourge, and the mold is definitely interesting. I bet this costs an arm and a leg.

Yeah the toy's headsculpt wasn't my favorite compared to the really really cool looking artwork so I'm hoping a new toy of him gets made in the future

Wouldn't mind an updated version of this design on a future G2 styled Optimus mold

But this would also be cool on siege/kingdom Magnus or a future Magnus figure
And it seems someone already attempted a custom thats not too shabby

FWIW, the original toy's skull head was a Hasbro-made pretool for the RtS Laser Optimus mold, rather than something Fun Pub came up with. Hasbro just gave it to them and told them to use it for something.

Indeed, during the 2010 lines Hasbro really experimented with pretooled alternate heads, most of them original designs not based on any existing character, and allowed Fun Pub to use the otherwise unusued ones. Funnily enough, most were accidentally revealed in the original use's instructions, including Laser Prime here.

No Hot Rod retool for you!
This just in:
he appears to be a redecco of Cliffjumper with a new blue goldbug head with red eyes. Body colours are black and gold, with transparent blue windows on the car body.
He has the same weapons as Cliffjumper/Bumblebee

I guess we should have expected that. Still, those colors sound like they should look gorgeous on that mold.

I have to say, I'm kinda sad that they aren't finding new molds for these characters to use. I know it was a necessity at the time, but I thought it was kinda cool. SG Goldbug and Megatron have very different looks than their G1 selves.
Some Shattered Glass guys don't even have a swapped color scheme, like Jazz and Galvatron.

The very last comic from Fun Pub introduced a whole new multiverse of Shattered Glass worlds never seen before. One of which was a SG version of the G1 cartoon in which Megatron was indeed a recolor of his G1 cartoon look.
The new comic from IDW will likewise be another of these worlds separate from the original Fun Pub SG world.
As for the likes of Jazz and Galvatron, we'll just have to wait and see how IDW and Hasbro may handle them, if at all. Though, Hasbro has already changed SG Ratchet's deco, so they could very well alter Jazz's deco to be less like G1 Jazz.

That alternate SG Megs illustrates what I mean. That could easily be Marvel Comics Megatron. It just doesn't work as well. A different body type may have worked better.
A 1:1 mirror universe has it's merits. I'm just saying I miss the innovation in mold choices.

Well, that's Hasbro's current brand consistency for ya, I'm afraid. Gotta maintain that evergreen iconography for purposes of marketing and recognition.
Still, at least they did give us the wings for Megatron instead of just the figure without anything new.

Well, poo. I liked his evolution, it was similar to the T30 one (from VW Beetle to Sports Car)

If SG Goldbug is just the cliffjumper mold again, I might pass and instead hunt the OG harder. I do not want that mold a 4th time, Goldbug should be either a battlecharger or Hot Rod mold use instead.
I like Starscream. 3rd SG preordered, looking forward to all 3 revealed so far!
