Barring any major flaws that don't present themselves in the images, I'll be purchasing one.

Not a fan of any of these figures. Despite the art they were inspired from, they just seem to be out of preportion. I dunno, just expected more fromthe sculpts. I will have o pass on Mega, as well as Prime, and Magnus (white Prime).

Sweet. I just ordered Revoltech Convoy off BBTS. Megatron will go nicely w/him once he's in stock..............

In my opinion, Megatron and Prime do not go together very well. Megatron's paint is VERY metallic while Prime's is not.

I've got him preordered from BBTS. They sent an email the other day saying they expect to have him in stock by the 23rd.
These pics make me want him even more.

I just placed an order for him, Prime, THS-02 Convoy(I want another one to keep sealed) and MP-05 Megatron.

I look forward to the mail now!

Okay, I already placed an order, I expect it to be as good as Prime, :)

I really had no interest in the Convoy figure when it came out, but now that there's a Megatron figure to go with him, I think I'll be picking them both up. I'm not usually a fan of Transformers that don't transform, but these guys look like they could be fun, if for nothing else than just to fiddle with at the desk.

I'm still not a fan of the prime one, with his tiny chest windows, but if I like Megs enough once he arrives I might consider getting prime too.

The mold is taken from the Dreamwave comic series.

I never liked the Dreamwave designs, so I've already passed on Convoy. Megatron doesn't seem to suffer so much from being a DW design (except the barrel of his cannon) so I may consider this one.

How tall is the toy?

they MIGHT look good as shelf warming ornaments at home or on desks

Alex Kingdom,

Are we going to get a cool Megs gallery too?
Also, How tall are these guys, like 4"... Umm, 9-10cm?

Yes, I know it is and I dislike the pictures in the comic just as much as I dislike the toy.

Got mine on saturday, why don't you take a look at him here!

I think he's awesome, better than Convoy in many ways.

Yours AK
