With all the reviews of voyager Megs online, and all the leader pictures available, how come OP confused the two?
Especially put side-by-side with voyager Optimus?

Thank you all, for pointing out what my brain did not, despite watching the whole review twice and checking three times. :oops:

And thank you for being nice about...

This time, it's true! There is indeed a Mandarin Chinese video review of Leader class Megatron from the upcoming Transformers: The Last Knight movies, shot by the same user whose images were reported here, and the source of the mask gimmick GIF too. The video, however, is on Chinese sharing site Miaopai, and cannot be embedded - you can check it out for yourselves here!

I hear that! Might just try and get that one.

The colours on Primus are kinda ugly!

Articulation can differ quite a bit, actually. Whether it's a swivel or a balljoint, whether there's articulation in the feet and wrists or not; and then with Legions and Legends it can go from excellent like CW Shockwave to almost non-existent. Besides, it's important to show off the articulation to confirm the extent of it for a potential buyer - I want to know how far a figure can move its arms out, how stiff the ratchets are and whether or not it can pull off certain stances. I know this is apparently very important to you since you say it about every review, but I can assure you there are very good reasons the articulation is shown off.

From this review (knowing Chinese does come in handy!), I got that although Hasbro is trying harder this time (unlike AOE Prime), this figure is still flawed. He only has 1 hollow arm, but the way it bends leaves us with yet another under-arm-fusion-cannon Megatron. The silver wash looks faint and just passable. The backpack exists but is not blatant. The skirt plates are a soft rubbery plastic and does prevent him from the full Van Damme. The transformation is somewhat complex and harkens back to ROTF Jetfire. The robot parts are MUCH better integrated than the ol' bot-underneath-a-jet, but the reviewer said that his chest armor doesn't seem to have a proper locking point. Bummer.

At first glance, I anticipated the leader Megs to be superior to the voyager due to its presence, its gimmicks/accessories (changing face plate and flame effect parts FTW) and detailing. But now, the voyager stands as the better-engineered figure. It may not match the leader in terms of accessories (the size and the pin in the middle of the fusion cannon really bug me), but its engineering negates many problems which the leader has while coming across as fresh and intuitive. However, the leader still looks to be a fun figure with a good deal of play value!

Yeah again there seems to be no bad Megatron figure so far in this line no matter what the size (and even that retooled Deluxe isn't bad if not quite for me). I went for the Voyager because of the cheaper price and the better scale to my other figures (including Voyager Prime) and I'm very happy with my choice and he looks great on my shelf (and on my desk... he's already become one of my most transformed figures in years especially considering his size and complexity compared to my usual desk-formers). Leader Megatron may have a couple flaws but he has some great things going for him too including that neat face changing gimmick the Voyager does not have. I think they all have their pros and cons but all are great so no matter which version you buy for your personal collection you should be pretty satisfied with him. :)

For those who want to see this on Youtube:



This guy looks GORGEOUS! MAN! He even has wrist swivels! I thought he didn't! That makes him SO much better! :D And that face mask gimmick tho! DANG!

So it looks like Leader Megs has swivels in the wrists to allow for somewhat "normal" arm movement.

The more I see the movie toys, the more bummed I am that Bee doesn't get his hammer. I am loving his hammer.

And I really can't wait to see new toys. All the stores around here still have wave 1 and there are tons of guys I need to get in wave 3. Wave 2 is decent and does include almost every Megatron I plan to get (which is all but one)

After a California sighting, as seen here, we also have a Canberra, Australia, reporting from fellow Seibertronian Rainmaker of the Toys'R'Us exclusive Mission to Cybertron legion 2-packs, featuring Optimus Prime and Grimlock, and Bumblebee and Megatron!

Check out the photo proof below, and head to our Sightings section to find out if more have been found in your area. Happy Hunting!

Sighted both MtC Legion 2-packs at a Toys R Us in Canberra. For some odd reason they're $30, making each legion cost $15. Megatron released before the original Megatron.

I don't know if it's the same for everyone but my mission glyph for the Bumblebee VS Megatron 2-Pack is Galvatron

Also Bumblebee is disappointing, his top half windows are painted and has the extra details but his legs don't have the extra details or paint on the windows.
