Courtesy of site sponsor TFsource we have our first image of Takara Tomy's Transformers Prime Arms Micron AM-33 Darkest Megatron. The image is small, but it's Voyager Class Megatron with AMW-01 Gabu, AMW-02 Baru, and AMW-03 Dai. The figure can be pre-ordered at TFsoruce by clicking the following link:

Aw man, I was hoping for Gora II and Hades repaints... O well, I'll be awaiting colors pics of the new Dark Matter Calibur then and wallow in self-pity.

So no word on paint apps for this Megatron, are they new or is it Dark Megatron with the other AM's included?

My guess it's gonna have its right arm redecoed pink and gold like the Prime arm he stole, and the Dark Matter Calibur will likely be redecoed to resemble the Dark Star Saber.

Though, are we absolutely certain that it is "Darkest Megatron" and not "Megatron Darkest"? I ask because far too many websites incorrectly listed Megatron Darkness as "Darkness Megatron" and Vehicon as "Bikon" or "Beacon".

That would make sense. It would also make me not want it, and go after Megaton Darkness instead.

We won't be sure unless we see the name in a magazine or on the site. Until then, "Darkest Megatron" will have to suffice.

you know, there is a missed opportunity here. They should have made a new mold Hades, a "Hades II" if you will (like what they did with Gora and Gora II), that transforms into a sword resembling the Dark Star Saber, as Hades's wings do bear a sort of resemblance to that sword, and far more than the Dark Matter Calibur does.

If only the existing Hades turned into a sword instead of a scythe.
