AC Toys has posted an image of MP Megatron from JustiToys. The caption and shading hint that JustiToys is going to create a silencer and stock with die-cast parts for MP Megatron. According to the image, more information will be released soon. This could be great news for people who what to make their MP Megatron perfect! JustiToys is well known for their Transformer look a likes and parts including the WST Dinorobots and a trailer for MP-01 Convoy.

Awesome news. I may have to order a second if they do this to leave in alt mode. ;)^

They need to get on making an MP Roller next ;-)

Excellent!
I had a feeling they would :D
Hopefully they'll pay homage by making it able to form the 'Cannon' mode.

I'm pretty sure that if Justitoys ends up making a silencer & stock, it'll only be a matter of time before Takara release their own official "perfect edition"... probably with a few more bells & whistles not unlike what happened with the fan made MP-01 trailers vs the official MP-04 version.

Still, I'm curious to see how Justitoys will manage to make the stock attach to the gun since there's no obvious places to slide or click it into.

I am disappointed. At first I thought the article said "World's Smallest Megatron silencer and stock". Ah well. Someone'll do it someday.

Hang on- there's no place for a stock to attach to MP Megatron. Ol' Justitoys are going to have to get innovative here.

Ditto, thats what I think is going to happen. The "perfect edition" MP-07 Megatron or something along those #'s.

Though this is cool news that they are going to be making the silencer and stuff, like others did a trailer for MP Convoy way before Takara did MP-04.

Ah yes...the particle beam cannon. Now why didn't the cartoon series ever make reference to it.

I certainly like the idea but I really just want the the rest of the dinorobots already. No more G2 silliness. No more lucky draw. No more pre-TF paint jobs. No more anything standing in the way of releasing the rest of those awesome little bastards. Leave the extra stuff for later. CHOP CHOP JUSTITOYS!
:BOT:

well I'm eager to see some of the prototype photos of this when they release them.

Definately will be a welcome addition.

Now I'll just have to make a "collectors case" (read gun case) for him with a decepticon symbol on it.

I'd still rather have a complete Magnus.

Why do I suspect that there will be an official Perfect release next year or so?

Still, can you imagine how big this will make Megs?

Why Takara can't make complete Masterpiece sets is beyond me. They seem to like to make an incomplete or inaccurate version first, then later release it again with the accessories it should have come with. I'm just glad that JustiToys doesn't mind picking up the slack for fans.

Looking at Megs hand grip in the gallery, there seems to be a molding on the lower side of the grip where the stock could hook in (with the silver bar going across). I'm not sure how sturdy this will be (I don't get mine until my trip to Hong Kong on Friday) but it seems like a possible location to hook in to.

Doesn't surprise me, but still effing cool.

and I'm glad, because their products are all pretty good quality.

I'm not suprised. Let's see how long it takes for Takara to catch up to Justitoys again.

You ain't lyin'. Why doesn't Takara just get it right the first time?

Why give Magnus Prime's gun in the proper color, instead of giving it to Prime in the first place and give Magnus his own proper gun? Why not inlcude Roller in the complete version of MP-04? Why not give Megatron is stock and silencer in the first place?

Why, why, why?

yeah, you guys are probably right, I got the just toys trailer, then MP04 came out and I was pissed! Oh well I ended up buying it anyways and giving my justitoys trailer to my brother who got MP Magnus. I will probably get these too.

Not sturdy at all, but it's possible that Justitoys might make replacements for that part(with slots/clips, etc) so that it'll be able to hold the stock.

This is indeed awesome. I just hope they design it right to connect w/the scope so that we can form the Particle Beam Cannon. That's would be awesome. Can't wait for this! Then agian, I can't wait for my own MP Megs to arrive either...............
