Pictorial Review of Voyager Sized Transformers Authentics Megatron

I kinda like this.

This is incredible. I had no idea this figure was coming, one can hope for Starscream

Yes! I love this thing! It's so simple yet good in all modes.
Tank mode's a bit okay but presentable. Good articulation and very nice robot mode.

I love the first version so much I bought 4 to make a small Megatron Army.
The Beeftank was their leader first, but this will be their new leader.
Or I'll just start a voyager sized simple transformation great looking Megatron army.

Hasbro needs to do this more, just upsize some great scouts and legion/legend/cyberverse
figures.

There's a tiny cyberverse Optimus Prime out there with the perfect transformation.
Voyager size it up and give it knees Hasbro pls.

Door a figure thats that size he is more than likely more detail, transformation whise, so I wouldn't mind the $30 Voyager class figure price. It being and less means it's gonna be of a less quality.. and totally that's this figure.
It will not be on my shelf nor am I'm spend my hard earned money on this figure... No, nah, never, nope....

that is fair, because you are obviously not the target market of this figure. These are marketed for dollar store, for younger kids in particular, not for collector. It just so happens that there are collectors that attracted to these as well. Nobody's forcing you to buy them to begin with.

you are correct about the shoulder. The range of movement is limited due to parts clashing against parts.

This toy line is super weird.

They're for smaller "variety" stores so you'll want to check places like Walgreens, Big Lots, Family Dollar, and Dollar General. I've seen them at BL for sure.

I'm hoping for a re-release of that Cyber Battalion Starscream in proper colors and 2 repaints.

I want an upsize of this Starscream because they might be able to adjust the size of the nosecone and maybe do more with the arms. I'd like the fists to fold in and peg into place but I'll settle for having the arms peg into place.

this is asking a bit too much from authentics line.

They usually tweak the upsized versions from the original mold. Bee and Prime got elbow joints, they weren't useful but they are there.

Dang, totally slipped my mind that I was going to do this. I was right next door as it sits right between the grocery store and Dollar Tree, both of which I went to Friday. Maybe next week.
