Masterpiece Megatron is... a Fitness First member. www.expendable.org/kyde/mp5.jpgthis is what happens, i guess, when you emulate an existing design too closely... it, well, looks like the original design. but this will supposedly be heavier. hmm. - last "thanks to ACToys" maximal i think it looks great! unfortunately here in the U.S. the gov will only allow the importation of this product unless the tip is colored with bright orange. sigh. thats what Big Bad toy store said.

wow! looking awesome! Like that big cannon! And the head sculpt is fantastic. Hmmm... from the looks of it MP-05 will have a problem standing on its own. I wonder what other accessories would be included or do we still have to wait for MP-06 Perfect Megatron?

seems like megatron will have problems lifting his arm-mounted cannon, too. his limbs are a bit scrawny. hope they improve this.

Just wondering, so we will get an unopened Megatron without the Orange paint/plug? The law applied to the US. We Pinoys will be able to get him unmodified Wow!

pinoys have a way with things. we make remedies for all sort of things. i guess the cannon on his right arm will have issues in balancing. the figure is top heavvy too. anyway this is the prototype. wait till we have the final model, then we can sling mud to takara designers. hehehe

pinoys have a way with things. we make remedies for all sort of things. we also have no such anti-toy gun legislation, afaik, which is more of the reason our specialty stores may be able to import Megs than our native resourcefulness, which would be more in line with a BBTS fix. - last "i don't think much will change between resin proto stage and test shot stage, though, so i wouldn't hold my breath there either" maximal

a couple of months ago we asked ourselves after getting the V5 SOC "what's next?" i think it's either theis Megs or the YF-19. what do you think guys?

well I hope that is not the final design .... I think that the gun cannon on the left arm of megatron is too big or mostly out of proportion from the original cartoon ... but still lets hope for the final stages of this awesome new incarnation of megatron ... I wonder how will it transform will there be any issues in transforming this bad guy to a gun mode? hope its not an all plastic like the one on the rescent Starcream Masterpiece ....

they should have megs packaged in his robot form than gun mode....SIMPLE! this would not have changed the fact that he *still transforms into a gun*, and as such the trouble continues. of the MPs, i think only Screamer was packaged in altmode anyway, not that that's a huge factor. it's in perfect proportion. remember, it forms the viewscope of his gun mode. and toys can't size-shift. remember the G1 megs toy's scope/arm-cannon was also huge for robot mode. - last "it's either a dinky gun or a dinky robot" maximal
