Another New Stop Motion Video Featuring MPM-8 Megatron and MPM-9 Jazz

Whoa, that second video is rather violent for a stop motion ad for a toy.

I see way too much grey in this figure, it should be silver instead. I need to see him next to MPM Prime. I hope he isn't towering over him because if that is the case i won't be getting him. HasTak needs to stop making Megatron bigger than Prime, it is not accurate.

Does anyone know where the dialouge came from, sounds like one of the games.

Exactly which movies were you watching?



And I'm pretty sure he's dark silver plastic instead of gray, there's a bit of a sheen to it that doesn't show up great on camera.

In the movie Megatron isn't that big compared to Prime. That scale picture is not accurate. Megatron is bulkier than Prime, but he is not towering over him. Just look at the forest battle in ROTF.

Overquoting because mobile posting. You said it. ROTF. This here is '07 Megs. A different form.

Keep in mind though.... that in the first movie Megs isn’t chicken legged like he ends up in the other movies. Like the toys, that height starts to vary based on how extended his legs are.

And i really don't think they could have got him any more perfect. I love him. That right there is exactly what i wanted in an update to my first ever Transformer

I am very happy for you. They updated my first ever Transformer a few years ago and it is such a poor update that I wouldnt call it an update at all and more of an homage.


Transformers Generations Dreadwing Gallery

I 100% agree. G2 Dreadwing and Smokescreen are 2 of my all-time favorites as well (man I really need to do their galleries one day soon). They had a very unique look and were my very first "poseable" Transformers, alongside G2 Hero Optimus Prime, all 3 of which I got for Christmas 1994. The Dreadwing set was my last Transformers toy that my Grandma bought me. I don't even think most action figures were that poseable back then, so it was pretty amazing to me to see Transformers that had that many joints, like they walked off the cartoon screen!

Thanks to a heads up from Seibertronians Riley Hoffman and What's Crackin', we have word that tonton reviews has uploaded a new video review, this time in the form of Movie Masterpiece MPM-8 Megatron! The video review shows off Megatron in both modes, his transformation both ways, as well as accessory storage and size comparisons.

What is really interesting about the transformation is that it appears as though, despite how complex he was made out to be, most of Megatron's transformation steps appear to be involving his wings and front jet cannon, as well as moving all his soft plastic pointy bits into place.

It is also interesting to note that Megatron has a lot of softer plastic for all his sharp parts. He is also just dang HUGE, towering a full head and then some taller than MPM-4 Optimus Prime and even his 2009 Revenge of the Fallen Leader class toy. Heck, MPM-7 Bumblebee only comes up to his crotch, showing us how big this massive new MPM is going to be.

Check out the video review below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

I need some info on Jazz...…..

Still images really don't do justice to how shiny he is. There have been a lot of complaints about him being gray plastic, but when you see him in motion he appears to be mostly silver plastic with a few gray accent parts. I usually don't like that sort of contrast, but it works on a giant, monstrous alien robot.

Anyone else find it odd that there’s a video review for this Megatron when we still don’t have one for BW Megatron, and he’s the one releasing in about a week?
