well, i think a lot of the reason people might claim the 2nd film is strongest is because he killed Optimus, but it's important to note that Optimus was: 1. alone 2. stabbed in the back while tired from fighting 3. already fighting off Megatron, Grindor and Starscream all at once 4. The autobots only came to his help AFTER he got stabbed, so i guess they took a wrong turn at some freeway?
It's a bit hard to remain as strong as you were when you died, got resurrected, died again, resurrected in a new body and had that same body restructured into a new form.
@@treyrex5987 you also have to take into the equation something that was the entire plot of TF2, the dangerously low Energon's reserves, which wasn't enough to fully heal battle wounds.
I agree with this list entirely! Megatron was the strongest in the first movie since he tossed Optimus around like a rag doll. In the second movie, Optimus gained the upper hand during the forest battle which forced Megatron to call reinforcements. Optimus only died since he was distracted. He wasn’t as intimidating in the third movie as he was in the first one. As Galvatron, he was invincible since he had a hole in his chest. In the fifth movie, his robot design was so awesome!
I think Optimus only got beaten up in the first film because he was trying to talk Megatron down more than kill him, Optimus was fighting to stop him whereas Megatron was fighting to kill him
@Royal Fantasy I was going to say. If Megatron was Galvatron with the Allspark shoved in his chest, it would’ve been eaten up by the hole in his chest.
@@boatumus3585 This tf3 earth form was his weakest form, not his vehicle mode his vehicle mode fine in all but it was the fact that half of his head was missing thanks to Optimus prime and due to that he was deprest.
2007 will always be my favorite for several reasons, the whole movie up till the final act built him up as an unstoppable badass, which he actually ended up being once he finally took the spotlight. plus his 2007 design was always my favorite amongst the 5, he looked so much more imposing. I just wish he had a bit more screen time toward the end
Facts, his sick cannon literally one shotted Optimus like 30ft away, he was one shotting jazz and ripped him apart easily, even sentinel on cybertron feared that version of megatron, he couldn’t beat him so join him, if sentinel was so powerful he would’ve killed Megs and stopped the war as starscream would be very easy to take care off
Definitely the first film all the Deceptions lost character and power in the later films. I dont even think Decepticons were in TF4. Humans are more technologically advanced than Transformers?!?
Well, humans are know to quickly adapt new technologies into their own, soooo yeah, while not stronger physically (obvious), the TF LA humans could be a bit more advanced technologically, however you have to take into account that they were also getting weaker because there wasn't enough energon to repair enough wounds.
@@danielm.595 I'll give you lack of energon only because Michael Bay didnt follow the source material. The Transformers made energon from Earths energy sources. Michael Bay didnt follow his own source material with the Allspark. But, first movie Blackout is taking multiple rounds and missile in the military base and LA. Now one missile kills them. And humans dont reverse engineer a million years of technology in 4 yrs. You give us too much credit. The only thing the 3rd move got right was Decepticons forcing humans to work for them
@@jaythomas3224 well its a sience fiction, just like Transformers can adapt to other planets like earth, Humans can adapt tecnology into their like he already said, I mean I also think why never Nest upgreaded their arsenal more Advanced to go right in with the Autobots just like G1? That's something I never understand, only Cementery Wind kinda did that with Lockdown.
3 million years of Cybertron's history is the Autobots and Decepticons pissing on each other with the only advancement being space bridges and different energon types
I really wish they had explained how galvatron transformed back into megatron. but I do think megatron was amazing in 2007 I still remember the times he gave me nightmares lol
Especially in the first script. He didn’t want to fight in a endless war so he made a deal with prime he left earth with his team and tried to rebuild cyber tron by himself
Fun fact: Optimus and Megatron had never fought before prior to their 07' encounter. When referring to what we know, Megatron left Cybertron thousands of years ago, and Sentinel left in The Ark shortly after. Which means Optimus would've had to take over for his mentor and lead the Autobots. With Megatron on Earth frozen in the Arctic Circle, it's impossible for them to have fought eachother in the war. The "Megatron!" "PRIMEE!" interaction is a whole lot cooler with that context.
RandomBlackGamer With all due respect, those don't make a whole lot of sense canonically, seeing as how Optimus wasn't in the war at the same time Megatron was. Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Optimus only take over once Sentinel left the planet? And Sentinel left after Megatron did cause he was supposed to rendezvous with him on Earth. So...logically, Optimus would've never had the chance to fight Megatron.
Tf1 megatron had just woken up and was hungrier than ever. After that..it just was never the same for poor megs. Sure, he had his moments..but not like he did in tf1. Another good vid. Thanks. I think his tf3 version (when he showed up in the desert) was his coolest look. He looked oh so...broken. And battered.
Tbh TF5 was his strongest. U know TF1 Optimus is the weakest optimus. Also TF5 meg fought multiple autobots and even with only one arm he almost beat tf5 strongest optimus(maybe strongest or tf2 optimus may be stronger)
Megatr1n: No! I want -you in- TWO! (rips Jazz like a kitkat bar) Mega2ron: Starscream! I'm home! (announces his appearance before he strangles his personal stress ball) M3gatron: ALL! HAIL! MEGATRON!!!!! (shouts this at a bunch of animals) G4lvatron: No! Impossible! They're ruining EVERYTHING! (runs away like a minicon) Megatron: You let the talisman get away?!!! (shoots fire 3 times in the span of thirty seconds)
Megatron is at his strongest in the first movie in 2007. This was when he's the undisputed leader, in all the other movies he plays time a subservient role to the main villian. Plus, Megatron needed backup almost every time he fought Optimus Prime. *I joke to my Brother that Megatron is damaged goods after the first movie but its true
I like Last Knight Megatron the best. He may not have had a lot of screen time or the lingering threat appeal that the first one had, but when he did show up... it was a party. I love the design. Very Ancient Cybertronian esqu with the jet and robot mode as well as weapons. Dark of the Moon is my second favorite. I like seeing Megatron in a weaker more "humble", if you will, state when he was caring for the Decepticon newborns and when he saw that Cybertron was destroyed. Part of me wishes that the ending that they gave him in the comic made it into the movie. It would've given his shift for a truce more weight instead of making it seem like he was trying to deceive Optimus yet again. Galavtron is my least favorite. And 1 and 2 are tied.
A factor that always seems to be overlooked in this is that optimus and the autobots were also at their weakest in tf1 due to their being chased throughout the cosmos in protoform mode while megatron was preserved at his peak in the ice and the decepticons had the clear edge in terms of military tech, and resources. I have to give a slight edge to tf5 megatron because he alone carried the decepticons nearly to victory when the rest aside from nitro Zeus kicked the bucket pretty early in the film. Also we know from what Joshua Joyce said that he reinforced the transformers he built with tougher and leaner materials, which quintessa then added upon and reinforced further in tlk. Without a doubt in terms of sheer brawn I think it is clear that tf5 megatron is stronger for enduring 3 battles back to back with no medical support, raking on the human military and autobots equipped with sufficiently strong weaponry to efficiently kill decepticons, and the real tell to me was pinning optimus to the ground with one hand. In every other film that required 2 hands and I think that alone is roughly enough support for my argument.
I definitely agree that DOTM Megs was the coolest-looking of the movie Megatrons, but also the weakest of them. I’m a sucker for the whole damaged-desert-warrior look he had in the film, and the truck mode was a decent Idea, making him more of a direct counterpart to Optimus. But he did basically nothing but sit and watch all the fights go down and only fight once for like, 10 seconds.
In all fairness to Meg5, he was legit the only other person meaningfully doing stuff on his team. Nitro Zeus for some reason lasted even after Megatron was kicked out of the fighting area and led to fall to his death. Meanwhile: Mohawk died alone and without any fanfare Onslaught died by getting double-teamed by Drift and Crosshairs Dreadbot got chewed up by Grimlock and just up and died Barricade, while pretty active in the earlier portion of the film, suddenly left the final battle, or was killed offscreen.
@@francescolombardi3438 I don't know why they chose a tow truck for onslaught rather than his anti-aircraft truck which is what he was most prominently shown and we just need swindle and blastoff to form bruticus
@@TCTheDS replace Mohawk with Swindle, replace Dreadbot with Blastoff, and if Nitro Zeus is replaced by a...."spare" Brawl, then we'd actually get the Combaticons in the movie, and maybe we wouldn't have to dedicate some of the cgi budget to the Infernocons, who don't talk, are barely on screen for more than 3 minutes, and get taken out all at once WITH JUST ONE SWING.
TF 2007 and TF:TLK Megatron are by far the best incarnations of Megatron in the movies. TF 2007 Megatron is such a powerhouse and a tank that Optimus struggles to even put a dent to Megatron and is getting ragdolled by him. The power gap between the two is just immense that Optimus didn't even bother to think that he could stand a chance against Megatron in a fight and would rather go suicidal with the Allspark just to end the war. TF:TLK Megatron is also strong, and is definitely close to the level of his peak strength like in the 2007 movie. The dude is on par or even slightly stronger to the strongest Optimus incarnation we've got so far. He fought four Autobots at once and he even managed to pin down Optimus with just one arm. It's a shame we didn't get to see more of him in that movie.
How i see Megatron: TF1: omg he's TERRIFYING TF2: Still badass when he's returned TF3: mmm okay i guess? TF4: yo this is the same dude with a different form TF5: a joke. (Good design tho)
@@wishsuccess5995 i mean he's not as terrifying as he was in the first movie anymore, and people started to get bored with his appearance. idk it's just my opinion. But i admit his design in TF5 is decent
I have and own all of them andI love 'Transformers especially the O.G. versions. Hopefully they make another "Fall of Cybertron game like the first game. Good video RBG👏👏👏👏👏
If I ever get the opportunity to make my own Transformers film series, I'll make sure that every third party villain that was in the bayverse becomes a name on Megatron's list of known victims.
Good stuff. The 2nd version is as u said, underrated cuz his new cannon arm with a giant retractable blade is a majer advantage. Plus he,s a space tank. Hard to beat a cannon/blade weapon and a space/tank
Well, I like all the Megatron’s in their own respected ways. Tf1 Megatron was a beast, and who could have destroyed all the Autobots if Sam was gone. Tf2 Megatron is one of the coolest, the blade arm was a sick weapon when used right. Tf3 Megatron is not bad, he was actually the first Megatron form I ever saw, even had a toy of him. Tf4 Megatron/Galvatron is very underrated, and I think he should’ve had more screen time. Tf5 Megatron is one of the best transformers and my 2nd fav Megatron design. He just battled everyone and is my pick for the strongest, as it literally took an army of Autobots to take em down.
This is my first video of watching your UA-cam channel and content is awesome bc I’m a huge fan of TF and I grew up watching these movies since I was 3-4 and now I’m 16 so keep doing you💙🔥💯
I love the tf5 megatron design more than any of the others His design combines quintessa’s knightly aesthetic with the best part of his designs from the aligned continuity designs just wish he was more of a threat on his own he definitely appears stronger than 2007 megatron with superior armour and weapons and he’s not even confirmed dead he was only kicked through the wall he could still fly in his bot mode we sadly will never get to see his return but he absolutely survived
Between TF5 and TF1 I'd argue TF1 is the weaker one, the reason is because the Optimus Prime he fought is far weaker in TF1 than TF5. Although Optimus could have been holding back due to the heavy population of Mission City, while the Forest Battle had just him, Sam, and the Decepticons.
I think the shotgun was not just a replacement due to wanting a cooler Megatron look but him contemplating on his mistakes, think about how his body in tf1 is balanced, then 2 it’s thrown off due to the pincer right arm and skeletal left arm
In my opinion I think the how in how megaton got his new form in the last knight is that quintessential easily altered his form to suit his needs perfectly even more than his original form
Fun fact about age of extinction galvatron,so ive been reading up why he had a hole in his chest. Basically he shoved primes energon blade into his chest,disarming prime while he can fight prime
another flaw for megatron rotf, is his hand cannon carried some weight so it was hard for him to fight with hit, that's why he missed a shot at optimums juring the forest fight (he was about to shoot optimus when blackouts helicopter blade came flying at megatron, the blade hit him and through his aim off, this incident caused him to shoot the side, which also in thiis process brought him to his knees).
You know when Transformers the ride Megatron was kind of a combination of his first reformed true he was mostly Dark of the Moon Megatron but he was at the physical and mental capacity of his first form while also sporting Fusion Cannon of his second form he's going to be just as powerful and formidable as the first movies interation while maintaining the cool design of the third in the weapon of the second so I might actually consider him a six variation maybe should have been included in this
It's such a disappointment that Galvatron didn't have any fight scenes as mentionedin the video too. He looked so cool, still didn't get a chance to reveal his true power because of the screen time and the lack of his weapons. Otherwise Galvatron was the coolest of all Megatron forms in my opinion.
this is a solid analysis of Megatron. His battle injuries and modification were consistent through all the Transformer movies... never seen another production company do that... Yo have to figure Earth tech is woefully behind cybertronian tech, so why would Galvatron be uber powerful. Given some time and rebuilding, the final stage should have been slightly stronger but not as powerful as a General fresh on to hunt, like in movie 1.
His bumblebee concept art, gives him his G1 look but with his 07 size, soI got a feelin, his bumblebee movie counterpart if shown would be the strongest
first form of Megatron in bayformers was by far his strongest because he was most familiar with his gear then in DOTM, TLK etc. he goes weaker due to major gear changes and then being forced to get used to having a new body, weaponry than all of his old ones. so his Cybertronian form was much stronger
Tbh TF5 was his strongest. U know TF1 Optimus is the weakest optimus. Also TF5 meg fought multiple autobots and even with only one arm he almost beat tf5 strongest optimus(maybe strongest or tf2 optimus may be stronger)
Tf5 Megatron is probably my favorite look for him while it was never explained how he got like that it's his best look it's really imposing and his mouth guard was amazing with an almost predator like design
my favorite design for Megatron is the dotm version. but there's a few things I'd change if I were in charge of his design. 1. make his alt mode clean and a shiny silver and black, as a callback to his g1 colors (but the worn look is cool also) 2. give him his fusion cannon from tlk, retractable sword from rotf, and chain whip from tf-2007 3. make him as strong, intelligent, and agile as he was in tf-2007, aoe, and tlk 4. have him team up with the autobots to fight quintessa 5. frank Welker voice from tf prime
The reason why the design changes can't be applied is because Megatron in DOTM was literaly rusty. His alt mode was showing who he became after ROTF: A strong warrior who got badly injured, humiliated, lost hopes of victory, can't fight anymore because he's been away of the battlefield for a long time, and can't comeback since he has no one with him (no army). He was far from the first Megatron, who had looks that described him perfectly (a big ass two-hand cannon and an alt mode that looks too badass to be real).
Honestly the Revenge of the Fallen Megatron is my favourite form of the Live Action Movie Megatron's. I loved how it was all asymmetrical, the giant shoulder spoke on one side just screams Megatron for me nowadays. I'm hoping that as the reboot continues, we keep the Megatron looking spiky gimmick. I'm a fan of how Megatron looked in the original Cartoon. But still, Megatron being a Cybertronian vehicle, his head fully visible, his body spiky and looking like I would hurt to even try to punch him. Standing high above all other transformers, even Prime himself. That's what I'm hoping we get to see as the reboot continues.
@@normanpopcultureboy8563 Bruh the g1 design is basically a bunch of white printed cardboard boxes put together along with a long barrel and some paint
@@revampedrenegotiate that’s because it’s the armor of you watch the scene when megatron was rebuilt into galvatron by unicron you can see how complex they are when you remove the Blocky armor
I just think that for the most part they had little to no clue what they were doing with Megatron. He his intimidation factor went downhill after the first movie and he was literally relagated to a sideline role after that even though he should have been this big scary bad guy who keeps coming back and nearly killing everyone
Finally back with another TF discussion. Which form of Megatron do you think is the strongest?
RandomBlackGamer I love you
well, i think a lot of the reason people might claim the 2nd film is strongest is because he killed Optimus, but it's important to note that Optimus was:
1. alone
2. stabbed in the back while tired from fighting
3. already fighting off Megatron, Grindor and Starscream all at once
4. The autobots only came to his help AFTER he got stabbed, so i guess they took a wrong turn at some freeway?
I think 07 Megatron is the strongest in my opinion. He was an absolute menace. And as a 7 year old he scared when I saw the first film.
The wierd thing is that in the games he fully absorbed the allspark without dying, even gaining a major power boost.
Tlk megatron originally was going to turn into a dragon
Imagine being a champion gladiator for millions of years only to be beaten up by some librarian scholar turned to a special wiseman
And which ebay account name is ladiesman
This is not the gladiator version
That one started with Aligned
Main shit that i hate
@@TheShape45 He was referring to the former version of Optimus Prime (a.k.a. Orion Pax) before joining Megatron, not Sam.
That was in Transformers Prime. Probably because Orion Pax became a Prime, strongest of the Transformers
Imagine if Megatron stayed as strong as he was in 2007. Would've made some badass movie moments for him in future films.
It's a bit hard to remain as strong as you were when you died, got resurrected, died again, resurrected in a new body and had that same body restructured into a new form.
@@danielm.595 I know. Which is a shame.

Let’s go RBG you a real one bruh I remember you told me you was going to drop it and you did 💪🏾💯
Yup. You were the only 1 I told. Couldn't wait to drop it for you guys ^_^
I think tf5 Megatron is number one he overpowered optimus for a second with one arm in took on all the autobots in the final battle
In all fairness to Meg5, he was legit the only other person meaningfully doing stuff on his team. Nitro Zeus for some reason lasted even after Megatron was kicked out of the fighting area and led to fall to his death.
Meanwhile:
Mohawk died alone and without any fanfare
Onslaught died by getting double-teamed by Drift and Crosshairs
Dreadbot got chewed up by Grimlock and just up and died
Barricade, while pretty active in the earlier portion of the film, suddenly left the final battle, or was killed offscreen.
For a second
@@obama_cricket true
@@francescolombardi3438 I don't know why they chose a tow truck for onslaught rather than his anti-aircraft truck which is what he was most prominently shown and we just need swindle and blastoff to form bruticus
@@TCTheDS replace Mohawk with Swindle, replace Dreadbot with Blastoff, and if Nitro Zeus is replaced by a...."spare" Brawl, then we'd actually get the Combaticons in the movie, and maybe we wouldn't have to dedicate some of the cgi budget to the Infernocons, who don't talk, are barely on screen for more than 3 minutes, and get taken out all at once WITH JUST ONE SWING.
I hated Optimus Prime for killing Megatron in Dark of the Moon.. Loved the ROTF look of Megatron but his badaassery in TF1 is unmatched..
I feel sorry for jazz he was one of my favorites and he died right off the bat when I first watched the movie he was so sad
TF 2007 and TF:TLK Megatron are by far the best incarnations of Megatron in the movies. TF 2007 Megatron is such a powerhouse and a tank that Optimus struggles to even put a dent to Megatron and is getting ragdolled by him. The power gap between the two is just immense that Optimus didn't even bother to think that he could stand a chance against Megatron in a fight and would rather go suicidal with the Allspark just to end the war.
TF:TLK Megatron is also strong, and is definitely close to the level of his peak strength like in the 2007 movie. The dude is on par or even slightly stronger to the strongest Optimus incarnation we've got so far. He fought four Autobots at once and he even managed to pin down Optimus with just one arm. It's a shame we didn't get to see more of him in that movie.
Hugo Weaving was the perfect Person to voice Megatron IMO
Ironically Hugo Weaving hated playing Megatron.
Chad Peterson seriously?
@@chadpeterson5698 indifference =/= hate
@just a guy playing minecraft i didn't get any of that when I watched the first 3 transformers movies.
@just a guy playing minecraft Too bad Frank Welker came in only at the last and shittiest movie
07 was his strongest form since he was already used to his new body unlike the others when he constantly kept getting new bodies
How i see Megatron:
TF1: omg he's TERRIFYING
TF2: Still badass when he's returned
TF3: mmm okay i guess?
TF4: yo this is the same dude with a different form
TF5: a joke. (Good design tho)
Lmfao how was TF5 Megatron a joke ?
@@wishsuccess5995 i mean he's not as terrifying as he was in the first movie anymore, and people started to get bored with his appearance. idk it's just my opinion. But i admit his design in TF5 is decent
I remember watching Transformers 1-4 movies as a kid and teen with my mom in the movie theater, good times bruh.
Bro i have never watched you... I watch a lot of youtube... NEVER seen a transition that smooth. Never... Good job.
I have and own all of them andI love 'Transformers especially the O.G. versions. Hopefully they make another "Fall of Cybertron game like the first game. Good video RBG👏👏👏👏👏
If I ever get the opportunity to make my own Transformers film series, I'll make sure that every third party villain that was in the bayverse becomes a name on Megatron's list of known victims.
I totally agree with your ranking. Two thumbs up!
Good stuff. The 2nd version is as u said, underrated cuz his new cannon arm with a giant retractable blade is a majer advantage. Plus he,s a space tank. Hard to beat a cannon/blade weapon and a space/tank
I’d say that first film megatron is definitely the strongest, although his last knight version might be very highly up there.
I love transformers and your videos this is my childhood
TF1 Megatron was literally feared by the Autobots. He is definitely the most powerful version
Well, I like all the Megatron’s in their own respected ways.
Tf1 Megatron was a beast, and who could have destroyed all the Autobots if Sam was gone.
Tf2 Megatron is one of the coolest, the blade arm was a sick weapon when used right.
Tf3 Megatron is not bad, he was actually the first Megatron form I ever saw, even had a toy of him.
Tf4 Megatron/Galvatron is very underrated, and I think he should’ve had more screen time.
Tf5 Megatron is one of the best transformers and my 2nd fav Megatron design. He just battled everyone and is my pick for the strongest, as it literally took an army of Autobots to take em down.
Galvatron is the megatron with biggest screen time
@@TheShape45 he was? I don’t remember him being in the film that much.
I loved his dark of moon look.he looked so badass with that hood and mismatched parts and chains.i loved it
honestly i like tf5 megatron more he just feels more like megatron than the previous films depicted him
Dark of the moon Megatron looks the coolest imo, and that transformation scen where he pulls the cloak over his head GOES HARD
This is my first video of watching your UA-cam channel and content is awesome bc I’m a huge fan of TF and I grew up watching these movies since I was 3-4 and now I’m 16 so keep doing you💙🔥💯
Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed the video! ^_^
Love that "Tekken music in the background👍
Good stuff, good stuff. The first two r my favourites
Love your TFer segments!!! You need to do more Bro!
Imagine tf5 armor with tf1 megatron personality is so badass
Really looking forward to seeing how powerful he is in Transformers 1990, given how tall he was shown to be!
Me too. I can't wait to see his design!
probably as powerful as G1 aka able to pick up and chuck trains
6:36 i like the way he looks during that as its more proportioned out.
Awesome video of Megatron!!!😎👍🎬 I'm planning on getting some Action figures of the bayverse Megatron!😎👍🎬
I love the tf5 megatron design more than any of the others
His design combines quintessa’s knightly aesthetic with the best part of his designs from the aligned continuity designs just wish he was more of a threat on his own he definitely appears stronger than 2007 megatron with superior armour and weapons and he’s not even confirmed dead he was only kicked through the wall he could still fly in his bot mode we sadly will never get to see his return but he absolutely survived
Great job On these videos
Between TF5 and TF1 I'd argue TF1 is the weaker one, the reason is because the Optimus Prime he fought is far weaker in TF1 than TF5. Although Optimus could have been holding back due to the heavy population of Mission City, while the Forest Battle had just him, Sam, and the Decepticons.
also he didn't fought multiple Autobots simultaneously
Oooooooorr they writing in the movies went to shit after the first film
I think the shotgun was not just a replacement due to wanting a cooler Megatron look but him contemplating on his mistakes, think about how his body in tf1 is balanced, then 2 it’s thrown off due to the pincer right arm and skeletal left arm
I love that MEGATRON always have a badass and cool design in every transformers
Cool video
I love your case phone it looks cool and the video 💪🏾🙂👍
I can't agree less this is my favourite transformers video. Everything you have said is down right.Im huge fan of TF1 Megatron
In my opinion I think the how in how megaton got his new form in the last knight is that quintessential easily altered his form to suit his needs perfectly even more than his original form
He still played the secondary character in part 2,3, and 5
"Megatron must be stopped, no matter the cost." (Transforms into Tractor mode and hauls ass)
(You Got the Touch starts playing)
Cool. Video
i love how you said de little one
Fun fact about age of extinction galvatron,so ive been reading up why he had a hole in his chest. Basically he shoved primes energon blade into his chest,disarming prime while he can fight prime
Megatron looks like the emperor from subnautica in transformers 5 LOL
another flaw for megatron rotf, is his hand cannon carried some weight so it was hard for him to fight with hit, that's why he missed a shot at optimums juring the forest fight (he was about to shoot optimus when blackouts helicopter blade came flying at megatron, the blade hit him and through his aim off, this incident caused him to shoot the side, which also in thiis process brought him to his knees).
Perfect rating
My favorite version of megatron is the cybertronian tank because it's one of my favorite alternate mode's of megatron.
I always thought that tf 1 Megatron was the coolest and most powerful Version of him
You know when Transformers the ride Megatron was kind of a combination of his first reformed true he was mostly Dark of the Moon Megatron but he was at the physical and mental capacity of his first form while also sporting Fusion Cannon of his second form he's going to be just as powerful and formidable as the first movies interation while maintaining the cool design of the third in the weapon of the second so I might actually consider him a six variation maybe should have been included in this
It's such a disappointment that Galvatron didn't have any fight scenes as mentionedin the video too.
He looked so cool, still didn't get a chance to reveal his true power because of the screen time and the lack of his weapons. Otherwise Galvatron was the coolest of all Megatron forms in my opinion.
That tekken 5 music💗💗
I laughed so hard when you said. Thanks to a infusion of parts from ZEE LITTLE ONE
this is a solid analysis of Megatron. His battle injuries and modification were consistent through all the Transformer movies... never seen another production company do that... Yo have to figure Earth tech is woefully behind cybertronian tech, so why would Galvatron be uber powerful. Given some time and rebuilding, the final stage should have been slightly stronger but not as powerful as a General fresh on to hunt, like in movie 1.
His bumblebee concept art, gives him his G1 look but with his 07 size, soI got a feelin, his bumblebee movie counterpart if shown would be the strongest
first form of Megatron in bayformers was by far his strongest because he was most familiar with his gear then in DOTM, TLK etc.
he goes weaker due to major gear changes and then being forced to get used to having a new body, weaponry than all of his old ones.
so his Cybertronian form was much stronger
Tbh TF5 was his strongest. U know TF1 Optimus is the weakest optimus. Also TF5 meg fought multiple autobots and even with only one arm he almost beat tf5 strongest optimus(maybe strongest or tf2 optimus may be stronger)
When you said "TF2" caught me off guard cause like we talking about team fortress now wtf- ooooh
Tf5 Megatron is probably my favorite look for him while it was never explained how he got like that it's his best look it's really imposing and his mouth guard was amazing with an almost predator like design
i one hundred percent agree with you
The Last Knight megatron design , weapons and jet mode were all the best we've seen him as in my opinion
Nice
your so UNDERRATED
my favorite design for Megatron is the dotm version. but there's a few things I'd change if I were in charge of his design.
1. make his alt mode clean and a shiny silver and black, as a callback to his g1 colors (but the worn look is cool also)
2. give him his fusion cannon from tlk, retractable sword from rotf, and chain whip from tf-2007
3. make him as strong, intelligent, and agile as he was in tf-2007, aoe, and tlk
4. have him team up with the autobots to fight quintessa
5. frank Welker voice from tf prime
The reason why the design changes can't be applied is because Megatron in DOTM was literaly rusty. His alt mode was showing who he became after ROTF: A strong warrior who got badly injured, humiliated, lost hopes of victory, can't fight anymore because he's been away of the battlefield for a long time, and can't comeback since he has no one with him (no army). He was far from the first Megatron, who had looks that described him perfectly (a big ass two-hand cannon and an alt mode that looks too badass to be real).
This could be in Rise of the Beasts. The only difference is that he would have the TLK head and the rest of his body from TF07
Honestly the Revenge of the Fallen Megatron is my favourite form of the Live Action Movie Megatron's. I loved how it was all asymmetrical, the giant shoulder spoke on one side just screams Megatron for me nowadays. I'm hoping that as the reboot continues, we keep the Megatron looking spiky gimmick. I'm a fan of how Megatron looked in the original Cartoon. But still, Megatron being a Cybertronian vehicle, his head fully visible, his body spiky and looking like I would hurt to even try to punch him. Standing high above all other transformers, even Prime himself. That's what I'm hoping we get to see as the reboot continues.
I love the first movie’s design and voice for Megatron the best
Megatron originally going to have his G1 design but when Michael Bay was sent to direct it he changed the design that him looked out of a blender
frenzy looks like you took G1 frenzy dumped him into a vat of lava until his exoskeleton melts off and whats left is his basic frame
So Megatron was originally going to be a couple of cardboard boxes put together?
@@revampedrenegotiate ???
@@normanpopcultureboy8563 Bruh the g1 design is basically a bunch of white printed cardboard boxes put together along with a long barrel and some paint
@@revampedrenegotiate that’s because it’s the armor of you watch the scene when megatron was rebuilt into galvatron by unicron you can see how complex they are when you remove the Blocky armor
hard to believe I'm related to the man who made this tf1 beast. Jeremy Cook
I just think that for the most part they had little to no clue what they were doing with Megatron. He his intimidation factor went downhill after the first movie and he was literally relagated to a sideline role after that even though he should have been this big scary bad guy who keeps coming back and nearly killing everyone
I agree 100% with this list
Megatron ROTF & Megatron TLK are my personally favorite designs
What's that street fighter like TF game on the background?? Damn that looks epic 😐
