The Transformers Prime toy line info continues to pour in. We now have two small low quality images of what is likely to be the Transformers Prime Voyager class Megatron courtesy of TFW2005 member hanypa. Is this the same Voyager Megatron we saw this morning in the Argos scan? It's hard to tell since both the scan and these images are rather small and grainy. Check out the images below.

Looks good so far. The left hand looks a little weird but it may just be mistransformed...

Rather than trying to be the first to post pics, why not just take quality pictures and THEN post?

Mis-Transformed.
NOT A COMPLAINT!
He looks AMAZING!
I Want EVERY TF Prime Figure.
EVERY SINGLE ONE!
Maybe switch around a few 1st additions for RID versions, but every character. I Really hope this doesn't bite the dust like animated. Damn, I miss animated.

Not too bad. Certainly a better Voyager than Optimus. Other than a Deluxe, there's nothing from First Edition to compare this to. The Deluxe is excellent, I'm assuming the Voyager is even better.

so.. in the show he's mostly chrome/bright silver.. yet his figure looks to have a decent amount of that disgusting brown plastic.. that makes no sense. hasbro uses the normal light grey plastic with everything, yet now, when it would actually make more sense.. they choose not to use it.

anyways, i like the mold.. i'm hoping this is the takara version and the hasbro one will look better (sorry, i was literally laughing out loud while i typed that lol)

Dude, it's poor lighting. He's not brown. He's silver in the catalog scan.

The catalogue scan's probably the photoshopped promotional image of the toy, I've stopped trusting those for colour accuracy for quite a while now...

That said, I REALLY REALLY hope you're right.

I know it'd gotta be bad lighting since some of his purple parts look black (or close to it) in those images to me.

The toy appears to be slightly mis-trasformed in both modes. the mis-transformed jet mode looks like TM1 Waspinators jet mode.

I can't further judge the toy. till i see bigger,clearer & more accurately transformed toy pics.

whoa. I cant believe it ... a VOYAGER class megatron outside of movie-verse that actually LOOKS like a good transformer, as well as gets me excited.

Stoked.

Im not liking this stumpy spaceship mode all the Megatron figures seem to have; I'm sure it's sleeker looking in the show. Still, at least this guy being ugly gives me an excuse not to buy him and jus mix and match with my animated Megs. Lord knows I don't need a longer wish list.

It looks like a claw weapon held by his left hand. It might be the piece infront of the cannon in jet mode. I think the shoulders are mistransformed aswell. They should be able to rotate down a bit more.

Take a good look at this close-up from the Argos website:

You might be right about the bad lighting, but I doubt good lighting will make it look silvery/grey. Surely it'd just look like a lighter brown.

I already want this. Megs has a sweet design and it looks like they're staying close to his on-screen appearance.

I'm a happy fanboy.
Re: Transformers Prime Voyager Megatron In-Hand Images (1336508)
Posted by Vicalliose on January 21st, 2012 @ 6:41am CST
I hope that is a removable weapon and not just GIMMICK FIST.

Also note in these pictures, that while it could be blamed on bad lighting at a glance, notice that the claws are a completely different from the rest of him, where as the promo pics say they should also be silver, here his body looks tan where as his claws are brown. So yeah, he's brown.

Courtesy of the HDRMcShazzle twitter feed we have a couple of additional images of the newly released in the UK Voyager Class Transformers Prime Megatron. Hopefully clear images and video of this guy will be coming soon. Images mirrored below.

I agree. I love the robot mode on this toy/media design. I really dis-like the alt mode. the front part looks like a wasp's head.

I'm not a fan of,"hey it looks like a jet because it's got 2 wings on the sides of the alt mode"

I don't mind cybertronian styled jet modes. as long as they look cool,sleek,powerful & not overly weird like distorted things like this TF Prime,megatron jet mode.

IMHO,Personally since this TF Prime,Megatron media/toy designs is a loose homage based off TF 2007 Movie megatron. one can easily pretend the 2007 voyager movie megatron toy is TF Prime's,Megatron toy.

Yeah. He did look brown. I was actually expecting him to be brown green orange... who knows what else!! That certainly seems to be the running theeme.
U.S./hasbro figs = crumby paint apps.
eastern/takara figs = accurate paint apps = must buy at a jacked up price on ebay. Glad they got it right.

Of course, with the receipt covering the box, we can't see if the 'claw' is a gimmick attache dto the gun or part of the arm..

I know, right. What's the point in taking bragging photos and then covering them up with a pointless piece of paper? The official image of this guy had the claw on one arm and his cannon on the other so we know those two aren't permanently joined.

Glad to see those previous photos were quite a bit off with the colour.Will most certainly pick this guy up if and when I see him. The deluxe figure is an awesome figure indeed, but then it is still a deluxe. (I know, I'm such a snob.)

Excellent question. I usually have a terrible time finding Power Rangers, but Bandai stepped up their game and released an onslaught of new stuff.

Hasbro's still just sitting there, waiting. For what? I don't know. Perhaps we'll be impressed and overwhelmed when they do release all the new toys and news, but I've lost a lot of faith in their abilities, lately.

It's like they're not even trying anymore. I'm worried that their focus will become multimedia and they'll drop the toys altogether.

ARGH! The brown of it all!!

That's one hideous face right there. Good size figure though and a nice mold, just a shame about the colours. Will probably hold out for the Takara version.
Re: Transformers Prime Voyager Megatron In-Hand Images (1336766)
Posted by kirbenvost on January 21st, 2012 @ 4:02pm CST
I'm sure Hasbro won't give up the toy business. They're a HUGE name in the toy industry. However their behavior lately is definitely worrisome. They seem to care a lot about the TF movies and not a lot about the cartoons when it comes to merchandising.

Anyway, these pictures are satisifying, but the lighting doesn't do it any favors. The plastic looks pretty cheap. But I'm really comforted that he has two hands and that weird looking thing is some sort of weapon. So far it's a buy.
Re: Transformers Prime Voyager Megatron In-Hand Images (1336776)
Posted by Dead Metal on January 21st, 2012 @ 4:17pm CST
the face looks like sh*t and the colours do too.
I may buy the Takara one, if this guy looks good next to FE Optimus Prime.

I want to see some size comparisons between the RID Voyagers and other toys from other lines, just to see how much smaller they are.

It's already out now in the UK (that's how this guy got his). As for the U.S., probably around February/March.

Keeps looking better the more pictures I see. I think I'll go by Walmart and see if they have any. And I really like how similar to movie 1 Megs this guy looks; I've been thinking it would be cool if eventually he gets a stealth jet alt mode like the one in the current comics.

Posted by Doctor McGrath on January 21st, 2012 @ 9:10pm CST
The figure looks pretty cool & i plan to get him but i do think the Deluxe's robot mode looks more appealing. I wonder what this guy looks like next to the voyager first edition Prime?
Re: Transformers Prime Voyager Megatron In-Hand Images (1336856)
Posted by Sabrblade on January 21st, 2012 @ 9:18pm CST
Is it just me, or does he have less paint apps than the Deluxe?
