Seibertron.com member Darth Decepticonus has found something very interesting on eBay.com. There is a new listing for a Super Laser Gun who may look a little familiar.
It is a remolded and repainted Classics Megatron! The figure is the same as Classics Megatron overall with a different color, however, the Decepticon Insignia on the scope of the figure has also been removed.
With knock-off's, one is never enough. So we'll keep you posted if any more Classics receive knock-off treatments as well.

Who did those recent G1 repaints of Classics Megs? I'm actually interested in buying one, or perhaps sending one to be repainted, cuz I have no skills.

I love it. This guy has a bunch of knockoffs for around $10 plus $10 shipping. I love the mini-Hotrod Targetmaster and the Sixshot toys. I hope they don't shut him down.
I just "Bought it now" - I'm calling this Megatron knockoff "Classic Megaplex".
Wouldn't it just totally rock if the guys making this classic knockoff recolor continued this with a blue recolor of Starscream?

That looks kinda neat.
Kinda how they might have painted it for a Galvatron repaint.

Looks pretty good. I wonder if the materials are as good, within the circumstances.

I like the original a lot better. I wasn't too keen on the deco at the time but it's one heck of a lot better than the ko is IMO. I wouldn't mind seeing a G1 style repaint or maybe even a retool into Shockwave. But the deco of this ko? Luckily I'm not big on KOs to begin with.

I love Classics Megatron. In my collection he is my current Decepticon/Predicon field commander looking to userp Scorge's rule.
Now, for this topic, I hate the paint scheme on this knockoff, but I wouldn't mind having some to send to slaughter as decoys though!

Not a bad effort to get him out so quickly.
I think the KO paint scheme may make people who originally did not like Classics Megs colours start to appreciate them more.

why make a KO of something you can still find in some stores?
