Same here. And man, I wish we had some cherry or vanilla coke here.

Wolfman Jake wrote:Anyone know why Megatron has 3 blue circles on his belly plate? He's usually depicted with just two, the larger, upper central one, and then a much smaller one below, typically offset towards the right a bit. I can't find any reference where this pattern with an additional small blue circle towards the middle bottom of the belly is used besides MP-36 Megatron. Is it to give him an actual belly button, lol?

I only see two blue circles and a tiny dot, which he does have on his cartoon model:

Thanks, Sabr! I knew you'd come through for me, lol! I was looking at tons of on screen examples of Megatron from the original cartoon, and various G1-related toys, and couldn't find all three blue dots. Figures it would be on the character model. I'm sure that tiny dot got omitted most of the time in practice when drawing the actual episodes. Could you share your source for these character models with me? I'd love to have them for reference in the future. I have a hunch there are more little oddities with deco details that Takara has produced that can be explained by comparing them to the character models rather than the actual cartoon footage.

Wolfman Jake wrote:Thank you, Sabr! Interesting that these character models are all collected on a Russian website (or so I guess). I wonder if there exists a cache of Sunbow character models with official colorations?
