Thus, this "Megatronus" toy could be a RID toy of a no longer evil Megatron, circa post-Prime.

This is very plausible and your entire post summarizes my alternate thoughts well. Good stuff!

Wasn't there a listing months ago of upcoming toys that had a voyager Megatron listed as either RID or Beast and some assumed it was MegaUnicron?

I can't recall. How long ago are we talking?

Redeemed ex-Decepticon Leader Megatron(us) seems like something they'd slip into the mainline.
Mythical Original Thirteen Megatronus seems like something they might start a new price point for.


... or I'm just trying to justify the one I'm more interested in.

Why bluestreak? We just had Prowl why not a different mold like sideswipe or even smoke screen. Hasbro should switch molds just to keep our shelves diversified. Like the jets came out at the same time. Why not supprize us with bumble bee. Is there a 5 year wait to give these to hasbro collectors.

We ARE getting Sideswipe. Hasbro announced both Sideswipe and Bluestreak back at BotCon.

No. Many of the sites that advertise on this site actually have the new MP Bumblebee in stock, for instance. If you're not on the Takara MP train, I highly recommend it. Very fun ride It's also much, much easier to obtain the Japanese figures since Hasbro can only seem to get Toys R Us to distribute Masterpiece figures. Reduced stress, no waiting, no fighting off all the other local collectors, no guessing if they'll even happen? That's a win all around!

Sweet. Guess i missed that announcement. Looking foward getting my hands on a Hasbro Sideswipe . Thanks sabrblade.

Its not, that im not on board. I have a sideswipe tommy/takara, even though i bought it from my local botcon, i don't know if its ko or real thing. Right now im waiting for bluestreak that i know is going to be a ko. When the hasbro comes out ill get that to, and im trying to figure out the difference when beside each other. But i did grow up in Canada so would like to support Hasbro as much as i can. Thanks

You forgot to say cheaper even after shipping. Although that only applies to the cars, Hasbro has better prices on everything else (jets, Soundwave, Grimlock, etc.).
