ThreeZero has been doing a very good job with their recent MDLX line, creating new original designs for classic characters and giving us highly articulated toys of said designs. Well, they did a Megatron, and now they are taking that Megatron and painting him up like he looked in the 80's Marvel comics.

They recently showed off this new figure on their Website, showcasing his new paint work, which is a beauty to behold. He even includes that classic black helmet and yellow eyes.

This figure stands about 7 inches tall, and will be available in the 4th quarter of this year.

Check out the images below, and let us know what you think in the comments below!

threezero is proud to announce the release of MDLX Megatron (Comic Book Edition), a redesigned version of the iconic Decepticon Leader that features a distinctive color scheme exclusive to this Comic Book Edition. This edition pays homage to Megaton’s original appearance in the vintage 1980s comic book series!

MDLX is a series of articulated figures capturing the spirit of threezero’s renown DLX series at a smaller scale with a similar high-range of articulation and enhanced durability, all at a groundbreaking affordable price.

The Transformers MDLX line of figures are based on the original 1980s The Transformers cartoon and toy line, as redesigned by threezero Art Director Kelvin Sau. The iconic designs have been remixed to incorporate threezero’s hyper-detailed mechanical aesthetic, offering a familiar and exciting new presentation. Transformers MDLX figures feature threezero’s unique die-cast zinc alloy and engineer-grade plastic frame system, which retains the tactile playability and durability of the figure. Each figure is finished off with the detailed craftsmanship and weathered paint application that threezero is known for, bringing beloved Transformers characters to a new format for all to enjoy.

MDLX Megatron (Comic Book Edition) is approximately 7” (18 cm) tall, with approximately 45 points of articulation and a die-cast metal frame. Accessories include one Fusion Cannon, one Back Cannon, and four sets of interchangeable hands.

Thanks to ThreeZero, we have the full reveal of the next figure in their MDLX line of figures: Sideswipe!

The MDLX figure line has been running strong, starting with Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, and expanding to include Rodimus Prime, multiple types of Megatrons, Starscream, and now Sideswipe.

Sideswipe is a brand new take on the red car guy we all know and love, featuring a stylized design that makes him look really sleek, and including all of his signature weapons.

Sideswipe will be available for global order next week, with an estimated shipping date of Spring 2024. No price available yet, but we'd expect a price of approximately $90 to align with Rodimus Prime.

Check out the details below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

So I just saw the review for Megatron which was pretty impressive! And after watching it I've made the choice to get upcoming G2 version. I will keep my Selects figure in tank mode and will enjoy the ThreeZero figure in robot mode....'nuff said!!! :VEHI:

I dunno if it's a mix of the pipe with the angle, but that Rodimus seems to have let himself go during the Holidays.
He now have a beer gut! :lol:

I got my ThreeZero SG Prime last month. ThreeZero made some truly rich and beautiful dark blue and purple here, he looks great. Love this thing, he rules!

Also, Knight Prime still looks incredible.

The Threezero Transformers DLX ROTB Optimus Primal is about to come out. This is part of their mid size scale figures, which are cheaper than their high end figures, but still have a lot of details and articulation. It’s non-transforming of course, but includes die cast, 4 sets of hands, combining blades, and most importantly it has the monkey face Primal gets after a Scorponok rips off his mouth plate. And these figures are not that small, with this figure still being 11.5 inches tall. We have attached in hand images and a Chinese language review below.

Until canon proves otherwhise, I view the "monkey head with helmet" as a mid transformation thing, like its not supposed to be a fully transformed robot-mode head.

Day 1688 of waiting for Transformers Armada Masterpiece news.

In canon, that monkey face is what’s under the mouthplate. We see it in the movie.

I got my DLX Sideswipe as well as my G2 Megatron, and both are so nice. sideswipe is super cool, and G2 Megatron might be my favorite non-transforming figure? Something about it is just so.... nice
