Animated Megatron's design is inspired by Super Megatron along with Animated Optimus Prime who is loosely inspired by Star Convoy to the point one of his figures is painted to look like Star Convoy, Derrick J. Wyatt was a huge fan of the designs.
Excellent remold, it was about time Megatron got a figure with a super mode. While it is said that it is a remold of Titan's Return Galvatron in reality they only used the arms and legs. The torso, the head and the rest of parts are all new. They also changed the location of the tank threads, they are now in the legs instead of the arms.
I got this figure earlier this year and I have no regrets in buying him. He's a perfect representation of Megatron in my book. I keep the chest and forehead crest in Ultra Megatron mode, while keeping the wings folded up on the back, having the triple tank barrel attached to the back just behind his head, and his arm canon in it's regular formation. Also, I got this badass big sword from Dr. Wu based on the original Japanese G1 Megatron toy's sword for him. Because this Megatron design is too cool to not have a sword!
I prefer to keep the jet mode fusion cannon, and would have put the tank turret on the other shoulder, but very nice figure here! Thought he might get additional parts to appear bigger at first, but still looks very nice! Wish Super Megatron was a thing in the official Transformers series also, not just the toylines.
I got one on day 1 from Kapow Toys, which is awesome, but unfortunately... it came with 2 left hands. I've tried contacting Kapow, but they haven't got back to me. So now i'm going directly to Hasbro Customer Care. Wish me luck!
You forgot the head crystal that's even harder to flip around! Also yeah, the head turning is super hard, but thankfully the lower part of the face is just C-Clipped in, so you can pop it out for better access.
Yeah, the alt modes are kinda head scratchingly weird, but god damn, that robot mode looks beautiful. And he's a triple changer, weird as his alt modes are
Hi Balt, love your channel. You should check out Space Battlecruiser Yamato; it's Wave Motion Gun is the epitome of "ships that are giant flying guns".
I should be getting mine in a few weeks, I'm definitely looking forward to him. I just hope mine is good. Really sucks to hear that a lot of people have had plenty of problems with theirs!
As you said....It's FINE!......best description I would use. Bit of style over substance. Did think about buying him.....PASS! Thanks Balt...saved me a bit of cash. Merry Xmas to you & your family.
I will say in the nearly forty years that Transformers has been around there has never been a Super Megatron made, in either the US or Japan, until now. The next figures that should be made that were never made are Ultra Megatron and Deathcobra.
While a Deathcobra still hasn't been made, this Super Megatron has the gimmick to become Ultra Megatron, it is also capable of becoming the original robot mode of Ultra Megatron Omega of the comic made for this figure and Ultra Megatron Omega: Perfect Form from the God Neptune comic.
Didn't the old Cybertron trilogy have a Super Megatron that got a figure? Though I guess they're officially different characters now that the various universes got combined...
Maybe the video should be re titled to "Now THIS is how you do NOT do a Super Megatron" if there are so many issues with the figure and it comes from the Hasbro-Takara-Tomy Elites service (AKA Selects), rather then being a proper retail figure. It's a shame really as the Seacons are suffering the same fate and those companies seem to be getting too into exclusivity recently. :(. For the bog standard Ultra Megatron mode you just keep his regular face, but yeah you forgot to switch to the red head jewel like MST3KTom mentioned. Still it's something I guess.
For me he looks just silly and stupid. Energon Megatron / Galvatron and Animated Megatron have the best flying alt modes that Megs has had to this day in my opinion.
Here's my gripe with Hasbro, their recent attempt at cross dimension Transformers are comparable to KO designs, and I mean the bad ones that you only see in Hongkong or Sirtoys. Ghostbusters, Back to the Future, Top Gun, and now this. Normally, it doesn't trigger me if the price is right, say $20 for each and everyone I mentioned, but Hasbro just have the audacity to demand absurd prices for less than mediocre designs and quality. You're Hasbro and you own the name right to one of the most popular adult toy collections of our time, and you come up with Transformers that a 1st year or even senior high school engineer designer can do. What is worst is that they sell like cup cakes. This "SUPER" Megatron is NO different.
To think, we might have got this in Animated Season 4
Oh my God!!! He looks like Transformers Animated Megatron!!!
Yes.
Marauder Megatron IN ITS GLORY!
Maybe it’s because super megatron was the direct influence for the design lol

😮your right
I want the animated blades for this Megatron
You forgot to rotate the forehead,it has a red jewel for his ultra megatron mode
It looks like a crossover of Megatron from Energon and Animated
I was made before them
Super Megatron was originally exclusive to the story pages of Transformers: Return of Convoy.
Excellent remold, it was about time Megatron got a figure with a super mode.

Wow, Balt got a figure without a ton of issues. This is a good reason for a celebration!
It's a really cool looking figure and seems like a lot of the modes can be improved with your preferences and fan versions of the transformations
The 'Giant Monster Ball Thingy' is called, Devil Z. Ijs. Awesome review.
It was Dark Nova actually.
Blitzwing is going to be jealous that Megatron has become a better triple changer than him!🤣
Quadruple changer.

SUPER MEGATRONS Head looks very similar to Animated Megatrons head design
Transformers animated megatron is based on super megatron's design
Oh boy a Megatron that has more than two modes I definitely haven't seen this before
@ yea
An X-wing on steroids.
Megatron finally gets a super mode to match Optimus
1:50 the sound of the a10 warthog echoes in my head while I'm smiling from ear to ear
Have you seen Transformers Cybertron Wing Saber, by any chance?
Maybe they can repaint this guy as Galvatron and give him a new head and give him a new weapon and give him a new vehicle mode.
This is a remould of Titans Return Galvatron
Awesome review👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you 🤗
@@baltmatrix hello
the headsculpt of ultra megatron omega is SO CLOOL
the problem is with the scale, he is shorter than Generation Selects Star Convoy.
Which is correct 🤷🏻♂️
If you like giant flying guns, Shockwave has no mass-displacement in the comics, so his altmode is legit a 30 foot long gun!
I prefer to keep the jet mode fusion cannon, and would have put the tank turret on the other shoulder, but very nice figure here! Thought he might get additional parts to appear bigger at first, but still looks very nice! Wish Super Megatron was a thing in the official Transformers series also, not just the toylines.

I saw the thumbnail and fainted it looks so good

Knock off companies : it's time 😌
He reminds me out of Doom Internal
This is no super-megatron, this is a mega-megatron
Yeah, the alt modes are kinda head scratchingly weird, but god damn, that robot mode looks beautiful. And he's a triple changer, weird as his alt modes are
I finally picked up earthrise runamuk, and it is great!
I picked up mines today too
@@blakeatronproductions7390 how is he
@@iamabot1o1 a absolute chad lol
@@blakeatronproductions7390 nice to here man
@@iamabot1o1 just found run amuck for a decent price ! Can’t wait to see them both in action !
Fun Fact :According to Tfwiki.net, this Super Megatron is, in fact, a heavy retool of the 2016
Titans Return Voyager Class Galvatron!
You can see it the most in the legs and arm. That Galv sculpt was really hurt by the triple-changer requirement.
he mentioned that in the video
This Figure is perfect for those who just want a Megatron Figure
You can also rotate the forehead to reveal a red gem.
Wasn't this thing a Takara Tomy Mall Exclusive? How are there a bunch of these things getting bought?
Hasbro Pulse did a preorder in August for Super Megatron. Sold out a while ago though. Its an awesome figure if you can find it.
I got mine at tfsource. 90$ but totallly worth it.
@@rhaeasoul8531 same
Wow, if you look at him he has quite a few 5mm ports on him, perfect for adding some weaponizers, modulators, and/or battle masters.
In all honesty, the UM’s altmode is a massive mess of Megatron parts, like some glitch in his t-cog.
Hi Balt, love your channel. You should check out Space Battlecruiser Yamato; it's Wave Motion Gun is the epitome of "ships that are giant flying guns".
Confirmed, Megatron is a triple changer
I should be getting mine in a few weeks, I'm definitely looking forward to him. I just hope mine is good. Really sucks to hear that a lot of people have had plenty of problems with theirs!
Balt might just be the only individual who enjoyed the xiston from Star Wars episode 9
Also the dark energy ball in space is named dark nova
I have one thing to say. Yeeeesssss!
This is an awesome figure..just got mine yesterday..
This should've been named Moneygrabatron.
This toy is more than meets the eye
All we need is triple changer megatron from animated if we got season 4
Great video! I also think that this figure could be remolded again into energon megatron. All it needs is a tank cannon
I love that Baltimore flag in ur logo
Very impressive.
As you said....It's FINE!......best description I would use.
Bit of style over substance.
Did think about buying him.....PASS!
Thanks Balt...saved me a bit of cash.
Merry Xmas to you & your family.
Great video Balt! I like the figure but I don't like it enough to want to buy it
This looks like the Last Knight Megatron but in G1 😱 lol
*those japanese comic books*
Comparing this figure to anything from Siege is a bit unfair given it was retooled from a Titans Return toy
"Jet mode"
I would like to see a third-party super megatron One day
I need to pick this up
Well he looks just Super.
Flight mode is for spaceflight
I will say in the nearly forty years that Transformers has been around there has never been a Super Megatron made, in either the US or Japan, until now. The next figures that should be made that were never made are Ultra Megatron and Deathcobra.

@@shinzero0271 The Unicron trilogy?
@@shinzero0271 You must mean the Unicron Trilogy, where Galvatron was Megatron’s super form.
@@matthewelliott7294 In that case there wasn't a character upgrade named Super Megatron but there were several Galvatrons
ok
Do you take requests?
It does look good, but whew, that pricetag here in NL.
Super Megatron
Am I the only one who thinks this figure would pair great with Transformers prime first edition Optimus Prime?
I went to go check Hasbro Pulse for Super Cybertron and as of right, he is sold out.
He actually looks cool
I wish the writer of the Transformers the movie choose Super Megatron instead Galvatron because that purple f*cking is going crazy!
This was created LONG after the movie was a thing.
Only recently discovered this figure exists and I want one so bad! Now upwards of £100 for one of these so I'm going to need to save up😔😔😂
Is it just me who prefers this figures base robot mode to the Super mode? To me, its a bit underwhelming, and doesn't look as good
WHAT THE HELL IS A SUPER MEGATRON!?!?
Maybe the video should be re titled to "Now THIS is how you do NOT do a Super Megatron" if there are so many issues with the figure and it comes from the Hasbro-Takara-Tomy Elites service (AKA Selects), rather then being a proper retail figure.

I like it
It looks very cool. Just doesn’t fit into my collection
Megatron with galvatron's legs? Very weird
It's a remold of Galvatron, in fact in the japanese G1 Super Megatron was rebuilt from Galvatron.
@@Hektols I know
For me he looks just silly and stupid. Energon Megatron / Galvatron and Animated Megatron have the best flying alt modes that Megs has had to this day in my opinion.
Dude, do you like this figure or not? Lol
He has 2 other robot modes 🤦🏻♂️
Come on review scorponok
Please say that's your real name
No it was my moms phone
Leaps and bounds better than that stupid Earthrise Megatron.
g1 ultra tank what?!??!?!?!?!?
it's so cool way better than the figure
It's better than Galvatron
Expensive? It looks kind of cheap with all those hollow areas. I'm not impressed at all
this is how many people think he is so cool

Those are clearly tuning forks.
That is one ugly megatron!
