I got this guy on Thursday night when he still had Prime Shipping.

EDIT: I just now found Air Raid in stock for 18.99 with both Prime Shipping and Saturday Delivery.

:grin:

Boy I just can't catch a break! Every time these things appear online for a reasonable price I'm either sleeping or at work :-(

Haven't seen a comparison with Classics Prime yet, which was what I was most interested to see.
Megs towers over him, but I like it. Just makes him so imposing. A force to be reckoned with.
Hope Prime can rise to the occasion.

Give Wheelie's slingshot to Prime. Might be the only chance he has.

I received my Megatron today. Man is he huge! I don't know why I thought He might be short. I put My original Classics Optimus next to him and Prime just looks tiny. I have no desire to get CW Prime, but this size matchup looks pretty bad.

I really like that Megatron's transformation is simple, yet involved. Love the treads. One thing I do wish he had was a barrel rising over the right shoulder like most fiction depicts him as having. Hopefully a third party will get on that. The combining weapon in forgettable, I would rather he had the silver barrel. Otherwise, this Megatron does look close enough to IDW Megatron for me. I still think I am going to rig something up with magnets to allow me to put an Autobot insignia on him at times.

Now give us a Galvatron that isn't an embarrassment to the name!

Canadians rejoice! ToysRus.ca has listed Transformers Combiner Wars Leader Class G1 inspired Megatron and Armada Megatron. The $59.99 (CAD) Leader price point hasn't changed, but don't forget about their free shipping after $25. If you need further convincing on these figures, come have a closer look in Seibertrons Galleries, and stay tuned for all your Transformers News!

Megatron at TrU.ca!!!

I ordered a G1 Megatron this morning (Armada was strangely unavailable) and there was a thing in the breakdown saying QUEBEC TAXES. So I'm pretty sure they'll ship to you.

I've been watching TRU.ca for a while now and the Wave 1 CW figures go in and out of stock all the time. So take a deep breath, be patient, and keep an eye on the site. They even have an option to email you once they're available.

Incidentally, they also take Paypal now too! That's news to me anyways.

Don't think that's Amazon.com jacking that price up. Think it's the resellers jacking up that price on Amazon.

Yeah, a couple of hours after that Amazon had him for 45 bucks and free prime shipping. Mine arrives on Monday.

There is a core robot, his name is Minimus Ambus.

If you want a white Prime, get Classics Magnus. If you want a white Prime with armor, get City Commander. If you want a truck and trailer that transforms into a giant red, white, and blue robot, get this thing or the Masterpiece.

Core robot G1 style 1985 release of the Diaclone Powered Convoy that eventually became the G1 UM we all come to love.

chuck must be waxing nostalgic for an updated power armor type UM.

I Would of liked the truck cab to be more boxy like the 1986 toy.

Maybe in a couple of years once the MP hype has died down we could get a G1 style Leader Magnus

How is this not G1 ? It transforms just like the G1 cartoon ? The only thing about it thats not G1 is the design of the shoulder missiles which appear to be ripped off from city commander.

As in G1 with a core robot.

In other words he means "vintage toy accurate". People need to stop using the term "G1" so loosely. By American standards, G1 simply means anything transformers related between 1984-1988. There are even G1 pajamas.

#JustBeingOutspoken #KeepingItReal

Just to add some stuff that doesn't fit your definition of G1, the Japan version of G1 extended all the way to 1992 via Operation Combination. Even by "American standards", the Micromasters like Countdown was released around 1991. Does that not fit into your own definition of G1? Some people TOO should stop shooting from the hip in declaring when and how G1 began and ended. Maybe for those living in their own microcosm that is...........

And Burn, nice meme image. Most appropriate indeed.

How many times has White Optimus Prime with Armor as Magnus appeared in any G1 fiction? The only instance I know of is briefly in Dreamwave. Apparently in the Classics comics he's a white Prime with no armor, but that's a different issue altogether.

Somewhere in a animated G1 episode, the withe bot came out on it's own to do something. I cant remember what episode though.

Optimus Prime painted white to immunize himself from the hate plague perhaps?

But still, he did exist in toyform. Not no hung up over it btw. Just an inference on why chuck waxed nostalgic. Me? Already have the MP version. Btw, also planning to get this sucker........only the Tomy version that is. :grin:

While we have seen plenty of in-hand images for the upcoming Leader class Generations Combiner Wars Thundercracker - retool and redeco of Generations Jetfire - but this next batch, via 淡定玩耍 of ACToys, shows the toy next to the Masterpiece line! Size comparisons aplenty, check them out below.
