That looks amazing, wonder if they would do a retool into the Mega Drive II and Galvatron ;) (or a Saturn, Dreamcast I'm easy takara)

Autobot Tap Out there isn't an N64 one. Plus they haven't done the same generation of consoles as the playstation went against the Saturn, not the mega drive.

Or they could do a Sega CD/32X add-on as Tidal Wave.

Whoo! first news credit! It sometimes pays to be an insomniac on the web! seriously though, that gold segatron is SHINY. All those nice flat surfaces make this one of the better looking lucky draws I think

It's a shame that chrome would probably chip like crazy, because it looks divine.

Looks cool, but I don't think I can get behind it...

you probably don't want to be in front of it either, it will blind you with shinyness

Tonight we're gonna party like it's 1989!

Cool that it looks like they've even remolded his little cart into a Genesis shaped cart. They could have really cheaped out and not done that. Good for them.

Really wish both Megatron and Optimus would come out in the U.S. as a 2-pack of some sort. SEGA would probably be for it. I don't know about Sony though due to SEGA signing a contract with Nintendo to have 3 exclusive Sonic games.

I doubt Sony would care about that deal mind, any sort of thing like this would represent a good advertisement. Especially with the psone being optimus prime (the most iconic character from all of transformers)

Third-party licenses don't come that easily in the U.S.

Oh I know, I was just refuting the claim it wasn't coming due to a game deal.

@SEGA_OFFICIAL has tweeted an in-package image of the gold Mega Drive Megatron. This is part of a Sega promotional campaign for Japanese residents by purchasing the upcoming Sega 3D Reprint Archives, between 18th December 2014 and 31st January 2015, and filling in an online questionnaire to be able to win.

Is this piece a hit over there, because I don't see the fascination with it. It's kind of like the shoe-formers that came out a few years back...in other words, "WTF?"

:I

Surprised this didn't come up before, but... did anybody else notice that the remolded "16-Bit" piece on Genesis Megatron actually reads "15-Bit"?

We may have seen images of both of these previously, but we also get a nice look at the boxes for both the Takara Tomy licensed and fully transformable Sega Genesis Mega Drive Megatron and Playstation X Optimus Prime, once again from Wonderfest 2015, and via Autobase Aichi - check them out below!
