It's me, I sold that to you! I'm glad that you're so pleased with him. I really like him too, but I'm the sort that needs every figure to have a "place" and I tried for years to work him into my collection. Finally I had to admit it just wasn't happening and move him on. Great to see he's in his new home! A slight correction on the stickers, I've been told they were released, but as a sort of "added value" for the 2014 custom class (Primal Prime from the Cybertron Jungle Planet Optimus mold). Extras were handed out upon request. Either way there were definitely fewer stickers than there were Megatrons, so it's a cool bonus to have them!
Ha, dude that's awesome! Thanks for the sticker clarification too, I saw you mention something about them in the listing and figured it was worth a mention. lol I am very happy with it, and he'll have an awesome center spot on my Megatron shelf now. Thank you!
I adore the idea this set poses of Megatron having Scalpel and his other assorted arms microns/targetmasters as part of his personal cabal of "most trusted individuals" alongside Soundwave and Shockwave. Having some of his closest allies be literally the weapons by his side feels like a very "Megatron" thing in general, but considering Scalpel in particular is the one who brought him back to life and orchestrated his surgeries without once thinking of just screwing with anything in his brain, there must be some more personal respect there despite him being so tiny and seemingly ineffectual on a Cybertronian scale.
He was that small on purpose. Most of the Transformers are supersized compared to us, but there is one thing that stays the same with us as well as they are and always have been. Someone or something with hands or implements in the same size as we are is needed for all work on them. This is across the board of each machine from electrical to it's Motherboard and all connecting circuitry.
@@RichardBenoit-q4z I was discussing it from explicitly the perspective of Movie Megatron not having a lot of respect for anyone in general, especially not the other surgeon drones he keeps crushing like fleas in Dark of the Moon. Scalpel meanwhile is someone he trusts in a form of leadership when it comes to things like extracting information.
I made a thumbnail for this video with it all shadowed out and UA-cam glitched and didn't put it on and I can't fix it until later. Oops. Lol Edit- I fixeded it :)
Had him on my radar for a while, since I love the idea of live-action movie characters done 'Generations' style. Would be cool if the inevitable new version of Prime Breakdown got this repaint as well.
Congratulations on acquiring a rare figurine. I don't like Breakdown's mold, but it is surprisingly suitable for Megatron. This is an interesting remold
Congrats on getting this figure Jcc2224!! I was aware of this figure before your video, and it amazes me that it's a retool of the Silas Breakdown figure. :D Keep on being amazing.
The lore about him warping behind Optimus then killing him really proves that Optimus made the right choice in taking his head off. Though it is funny, there are three different outcomes for DOTM. The movie as we know it, the novel which says that Megatron's truce was real, and he went back to Cybetron, and here in the package bio, with him killing Prime, leaving Hot Rod to make an early appearance!
I think I’ve said this before but I love obscure character designs, obscure characters and repaints. Because they’re unique it makes me able to make up stories or learn more about them. I wish that would happen more in transformers
I didn't know about it but I want it. I want it bad. It's a green Breakdown. Forget Megatron, this could be a whole new guy! Also I have Swerve as well. Completely forgot until ya mentioned the name😅
Hey, I have this guy! I got mine at TFCon last year for about the same price. He's interesting both historically as the first use of that mold in the US but also canonically having been plucked from his universe after offlining Prime in DOTM. He's very unique and a great find!
Was not aware of this, but Not on exclusives are just awesome. I had Machine Wars Starscream and Sandstorm and both were glorious! Had to let them go back in 2017, sadly 😢 Congratulations on the awesome haul! Always a joy to see the raving after a holy grail haul 😊
Fun fact: in one manga the role of this toy was basically given to hunter Ratchet aka Japanese green beast hunters Ratchet. Kinda funny how they've basically made 2 "old man Megatron" from the prime toys
I only have the Packrat from this set, really beautiful figure. I would kill for the Battletrap! EDIT: I just asked my friend who sold this Megatron recently on eBay if this was his... and yeah you got his Megatron lol. Small world.
I knew of this figure, and wouldn’t put it past Hasbro to release this in the Legacy line in some form of exclusivity, or rather, not a basic retail release just for some added accessories.
I saw this at a toy shop for a hundred bucks, probably won’t get him but I always wondered which character was using the prime breakdown mode So thanks for uploading this video.
I’ve been into funpub since I turned 6, I remember seeing the story for this guy years later. didn’t attend BotCon but I love it cuz I’m one of the movie expansion supporters. BUT, This is the strangest thing to me. It is now the most desired thing out of this set, yet all the “BotCon purists” or “hardcore fans” hate on this use for fairly obvious reasons which in my opinion makes NO SENSE.
A few years ago before lockdown world, hit this figure was going for $40 used, I'm not gonna pay the current prices or hype it up despite it being an exclusive partly because I'm very upset didn't get around to getting one to customize into a g2 megatron color scheme partly because I never got around to getting one for the normal sake due to life stuff, mainly due to the fact i do not want to give transformers scalpers an excuse to bump up the price from 100 something to 500 like they've been doing for every other transformers figure from the last 10 years or so. I'm glad you got one though, great figure. I should probably review that transparent test shot thrilling 30 rhinox I got for like 120 one of a few years back when it was somehow cheaper to get then the normal thrilling 30 rhinox for a brief bit of time due to Kingdom rhinox being so bad scalpers decided to hawk the last figure of the character lmao. Stuff like thats normally wayyy out of my price range but I looked at the prices people were charging for normal rhinox figures at the time (150) and thought "if I'm gonna own a rhinox it's gonna be this one because it's actually worth that weirdly high price due to it literally being a copy made to check tolerances.
"No one will guess". All right, I'll play. RTS Laser Optimus Prime with the Maketoys armor. ................. Aaaaaannnnnnnnnnddddddd I was so close, I may I've been in an entire different galaxy.
Ngl I feel like I'm embarassingly obsessed with TF since I knew him and all the Arms Micron guys' names (granted, I thought about collecting them at one point since I love little weapon guys and gatcha model kit toys are cool in general, but I don't see that happening unless I get to toy hunt in Japan someday because some of those guys are hard to find and pricy in the States)
I bought the "Most Wanted" boxset just to get Oilmaster. I paid over 400$CAN for the whole thing. Oilmaster is awesome and I was pretty exited for that Megatron......... *UNTIL I DISCOVER MINE HAVE TWO LEFT FEET.* Oh fuk me.
A while ago I started buying all the botcon sets and figures slowly this one one I got on tf source for I think like 69? Maybe but I love this figure and all botcon figures my favorites are the animated botcon ofc good vid
BTW, just pointing out that a real *GRAIL* should be impossible to find, even if you're a millionaire. My grail is to find a 100% complete G1 Metalhawk. Even if I'd win the lottery, I still couldn't find one.
A part of a grail to me isn't just finding it, but finding it for the right price. Now if we add HOLY grail to it, then yeah, its something impossible to find, at least in my book. lol

I've only recently found out about a Machine Wars Starscream made from Terradive. And now this new thing I never knew existed. Really cool.
This figure is a dream of mine. Def what I'd want a Legacy Movie character to look like.
Also yes, I knew about him and loved how he looked when he was announced.
Fun fact: in one manga the role of this toy was basically given to hunter Ratchet aka Japanese green beast hunters Ratchet. Kinda funny how they've basically made 2 "old man Megatron" from the prime toys
When I first saw the thumbnail for the video I thought it was that Rachet figure.
I only have the Packrat from this set, really beautiful figure. I would kill for the Battletrap!
EDIT: I just asked my friend who sold this Megatron recently on eBay if this was his... and yeah you got his Megatron lol. Small world.
I did not expect anyone to get this and view it anymore. So it's neat to see it again.
I remember the 5 pack it came from
This is pre-legacy legacy.
G1-ifed dotm megs, that is awesome.
I knew of this figure, and wouldn’t put it past Hasbro to release this in the Legacy line in some form of exclusivity, or rather, not a basic retail release just for some added accessories.
This is a really nice mold! I even have it in the original Breakdown colors.
I know this figure for the longest time I couldn’t figure out it was an homage to dark of the Moon Megatron
this is the first time i've ever seen this toy, very cool take on megatron
Congrats! He looks so cool.
It’s worth it if you like the mold. I love the tank that they made into bludgeon banzaitron and megatron. I have the three.
J4 thank you for posting this video on my birthday today
Happy bday dude!
Thank you J4
I know there's a legion black version of this mold as well
Yeah I think that was for The Last Knight... didn't they try to pass that off as Berserker or something?? lol
A fine addition to your collection.
I had an harm-micron that was transformers prime Megatron and turned in to a gun. 😅
Weirdly enough I found out about this like a day ago when I stumbled upon it on ebay looking for megatron figures. Then your review came out lmao
I've also wanted this for so long you're living my dream man
I only knew about it because of TJOmega’s botcon video. Pretty sure this is from the “Cybertron’s Most Wanted” set
I’m on the look out for this one as well. I knew I should have jumped on it when I saw him for $85…
I saw this at a toy shop for a hundred bucks, probably won’t get him but I always wondered which character was using the prime breakdown mode
So thanks for uploading this video.
Well it’s not tidalwave 😢 but very cool
Ah I remember that botcon. love the figure!
It's the craziest version of Megatron I've ever seen.
The only reason I knew about this figure before this video is because you mentioned wanting it in a previous video haha
I always wanted that exclusive TFP Barricade...
Had no idea this existed, but man, its dope central
