It wasn't. That's new footage created specifically for the ride. The ride is going to have its own story with its own footage.

Notice that Megs is in his ROTF body. If this is gonna take place int he movie timeline, it'll likely take place between movies 2 and 3.

Actually, I saw chains on him. Only meaning that this is him in his DOTM body.

Maybe this is just a bridge version where Megs comes back to life for TF4? (Please?)

On closer examination, you're right. The "claw" on his right arm threw me off. :oops:

(Why does he even have that claw?)

Still, it'll probably take place between ROTF and DOTM since the Cons are no longer interested in the AllSpark by the time of DOTM, whereas they still showed interest in it during post-ROTF/pre-DOTM material.

And, you know, all the Cons were killed in DOTM.

This actually looks pretty good.

Now, all I have to do is move to Singa-PORE.

Cuz he was a little messed up in the head after Sentinel stuck his fingers in Megs' cracked skull.

Plus, by that time, Megs was sick of fighting the war and just wanted it to be over with. Remeber how he offered Optimus a truce instead of fighting him? Megs wants to stay in power, but he had grown weary of the constant warfare.

I'm gonna argue that Megs was a little scrambled back in Africa. Hail me, elephants.

BTW. Megs had a great portrayal in DOTM. Galvatron minus the violence.

Ooh, definitely sounds more like Frank Welker as Megatron ^^

(See Mr. Bay? Welker's voice *does* suit the movie Megs! Just needed a lower pitch!

My word I sound like a G1'ner...!)
