@@PrimeVsPrime Do the Megatron Omega: Perfect Form and Space Artillery Mode with this figure since the comic and the figure already shows his articulation can do it
Out of the ice, Galvatron returns. Reformatted once more, into Super Megatron. Then upgraded as Ultra Megatron. -It's so fitting that the Titans Return Galvatron was used to make Generations Selects Super Megatron, it's like the character is continuing into the next Transformers toyline.
Really, really tempted to get this as this does feel like a proper, superpowered mode of Megatron without the need to become Galvatron. While I have no desire to get Star Convoy, I feel this would be a great compliment to my Galaxy Upgrade Optimus Prime.
I dunno. It's nice, but I struggle with liking Siege Megatron over the old War for Cybertron videogame Deluxe class Megatron. And the only really good thing on this guy is robot mode. (Tank mode suffers since they HAD to shoehorn in Ultra Megatron instead of just leaving this as Super Megatron)
chataclysm2112 I just don’t like them, the tank has really obvious robot legs sticking out of the front and the jet could have been far better, not that the original designs were amazing or anything but I don’t think it translates well into an actual toy, the robot mode is quite good though, except for that thing that the fusion cannon turns into for ultra megatron, that just looks kinda crappy
I like the idea of Megatron being upgraded into a triple changer so you can get them in both his cybertronian jet mode as well as his tank mode which I think is better than his original handgun mode
John Evans yeah but he’s also pretty stylised and I don’t think you could really call it G1, Siege and Earthrise defiantly look a lot more G1, earthrise megs does look worse with that tank turret on his arm
He was actually confirmed by Takara to scale with Star Convoy, counteracting popular belief. In addition, his facemask also draws inspiration from TLK Megatron.
I'm glad they thickened the back panels from Galvatron. The original ones left a gap that made Galvatron's feet wiggle back and forth, which made him really unstable.
I hope that we will get a third party over sized or even master piece style version of this toy. A quadruple changing super/ultra megatron is just way too cool ^^ Edit: You know, after looking at the original art work for Ultra megatron, having the tank mode's cannon point in the opposite direction and spreading the wings, would create a far more faithful representation of the ultra form's alt mode.
One thing I see immediately is that when you remove the shoulder missile pod from inside the fusion cannon, the fusion cannon can be put in his hand and form around it
He looks better in hand then the promotional images. I think he looks pretty cool. I have been in love with this design ever since I first seen it back when the internet was new. The fact he was created from Galvatron in the manga and in toyform is perfectly fitting imo. :)
This figure looks amazing, the only thing that holds it back however is that fusion cannon. Despite it being accurate to the manga, I definitely prefer a more G1 style cannon
I love these! I'm absolutely marvelling over them. It's amazing how the evolution of hobby modeling and figure painting, combined with nostalgia of a generation which arguably witnessed the pinnacle of children's entertainment have likely led to professionals building companies that produce such amazing products. And loathe as I am to make any sort of comment that may be taken as disparaging, what if we focused as much on building real mecha and exosuits? Heh, pipe dreams...
This designe is easily the best G1 inspired Megatron that we will ever see. Not to dish on the seige one but PRIMUS DAMMIT if he doesn´t look way better!!! Better start saving some organs cuz I´m getting this figure no matter what!!!
That can work really well consider with that Tlk face to give it a slightly different idendity Also the wings can be use as an cape if you wish for an royal look
@@nightlypiano41 I meant a separated figure or 2 new figs of them based on their g1 incarnation. Note: ultra megatron in G1 is titan class and has a more different altmode
This figure is also available through Hasbro Pulse. And who else but me thinks they should retool this guy back into Galvatron but without the Titan Master gimmick?
Excellent review of an excellent figure. I opened mine about a half hour ago and put him through his paces based on your video. I predict they're going to do a selects Star Convoy out of the Earthrise mold, even though they did the larger one out of the POTP mold (which I didn't get either). I might be wrong but that's okay if I am - time will tell.
I just received him along with dx9 Montana g2 colors and I must say he is a superb figure. If hasbro an t.t. ever did a masterpiece of super Megatron I would be all IN GR8 this is my 3rd time 👀 ur review 👍👍
That moment when you realise that TLK Megatron's Battle Mask was inspired by the Ultra Megatron look and that at least one person involved in the Bayformers gave an actual fuck about the frnachise enough to pull out that kind of deepcut.....truly an unsung hero.
Michael bays design choices make a lot more sense when you realize he pulled more from beast machines (demolishor, arcee triplets, sideswipe) and the comics and shit like it’s clear he did research just what he did w it was …questionable?
Also, I'd love to see Open & Play redo their Big Cannon into a version of this. I doubt it though since so many people crap on Big Cannon and Big Spring despite them being really good figures, especially for the original price. They're even better now as they're constantly on sale for half or less.
The Backstory on this character was that Galvatron was killed buried under ice by other 5 Autobots, and then he was resurrected by Dark Nova as Super Megatron. I sure hope I am able to get this figure, This is indeed a lovely figure. Now on the different face I see a clear design of the TF The Last Night Megatron, which in a way is cool in a sense that even the Bayformers may be their own thing, at least this connects the G1 stuff a bit aesthetically speaking. I love the Titans Return Galvatron, but disliked the Head Master Gimmick, so I bought a 3d printed transforming neck joint which by the looks of it Hasbro/Takara could had done it no problem and cheap, and I customized the head and took the crown and gave him his look. Yet this figure is awesome as it is and shows what Has/Tak could had done with Galvatron.
I suppose if you want an Optimus that is around the correct size then Siege/Galaxy Force "Cybertron" Optimus Prime with some 3rd party leg extenders would be about the same size and would also have the option of 2 robot modes too.
@@PrimeVsPrime Ayep! Though, I'd love to see one guy after he got butchered in movies as a character... Haven't gotten proper screentime since Cybertron; Sideways/Doubleface. Another one would be they could do Soundblaster's with Soundwave-ish mold, and remake Shockblast from Energon. Say what you say, he was quite amusing to watch! Shame Figure was what it was.
Well, crap, now I want this figure, which was a pass for me previously. Still not going to try to find it, but man, it's awesome! Great Review!! This seems to be the golden age of Transformers to this on-an-off again collector. This one could also make a great IDW Autobot Megatron. LIke, seriously, one single Autobot symbol and it's 90% of the way there. If Toyhax does the chest loopie-squiggly design, it'd be DEAD on.
He looks nice, i am not too sure about the ebay prices though. for example, the studio series DOTM prime is sold for over a hundred pounds on ebay, even though the casual prince is around 75 pounds. I also am not the biggest fan of the head sculpt. putting that aside. a great figure i might pick up.
If earthrise are "mini-masterpeices" in design, then this is literally a small masterpeice (i mean, all it's missing are fingers, which a 3rd party could make parts for
I am sure that there will be an oversized KO version of this figure that will come out soon. Those arms are also a heavy retool of titans return Galvatron too. very nice figure tho.

Agree
Face-changing on a voyager? Literally a mini masterpeice
No.
In his jet mode he looks like animated megatron without the helicopter blades
Yeah I agree! I can see lots of different Megatrons in this design
I also get animated vibes from the super megatron head.
😐😐😐
@@bonusbone5118 and I get transtech vibes by his ultra megatron head and tank racks a bit
I could be wrong but I believe this design came out before animated megatron so this could be an inspiration for animated megatron
Amazing figure, the details and design Megatron, it is so awesome
Really, really tempted to get this as this does feel like a proper, superpowered mode of Megatron without the need to become Galvatron. While I have no desire to get Star Convoy, I feel this would be a great compliment to my Galaxy Upgrade Optimus Prime.
I agree!
We can consider the potential of the TR Galvatron mold avenged. This is the best non MP Megs ever.
Bt3615 except for the alt modes
What are you on about? Have you seen the altmodes?
I dunno. It's nice, but I struggle with liking Siege Megatron over the old War for Cybertron videogame Deluxe class Megatron. And the only really good thing on this guy is robot mode. (Tank mode suffers since they HAD to shoehorn in Ultra Megatron instead of just leaving this as Super Megatron)

It's as close to Marauder Megatron as we can get
The best g1 aesthetic Megatron we’ve gotten in a while. Better than the siege/earthrise mold imo
The old WFC Deluxe class Megatron is better than Siege & Earthrise, and in a smaller package (that should've been a Voyager). 😏😏
John Evans yeah but he’s also pretty stylised and I don’t think you could really call it G1, Siege and Earthrise defiantly look a lot more G1, earthrise megs does look worse with that tank turret on his arm
@@sheryllamb Stylized, perhaps. But certainly more Cybertronian looking than Siege.
John Evans cybertronian yes, G1 not so much, it all depends on what you’re looking for, but the op said the best G1, and that just ain’t true
Check the Combiner Wars Megatron.
Definitely getting some Animated vibes from this. What a wonderful use of the Galvatron mold.
It's almost: you (titans Galvatron) vs the guy she tells you to not to worry about (this guy)
We finally have the missing link in G1 Megatron’s evolution.
He was actually confirmed by Takara to scale with Star Convoy, counteracting popular belief. In addition, his facemask also draws inspiration from TLK Megatron.
Those missiles on his shoulders look like the stark jegan
I'm glad they thickened the back panels from Galvatron. The original ones left a gap that made Galvatron's feet wiggle back and forth, which made him really unstable.
Frenzy: what'd he say his name was?
Super Megatron: Decepticons...MEGATRON HAS RETURNED!
Decepticons: Long Live Megatron! MEGATRON!!
I hope that we will get a third party over sized or even master piece style version of this toy. A quadruple changing super/ultra megatron is just way too cool ^^
Edit: You know, after looking at the original art work for Ultra megatron, having the tank mode's cannon point in the opposite direction and spreading the wings, would create a far more faithful representation of the ultra form's alt mode.
This is awesomeness in its true form..
Damn I want this so bad, I want a triple changer Megs and it reminds me to his Animated incarnation
Animated Megatron took heavy inspiration from this Megatron, so it is only logical.
The Animated Season 4 was going to have a triple-changing megs
Wow. Somehow, his viking-ish face is beautifully intimidating
The mask also resembles TLK Megatron's.
If took a shot every time he said “so-so”, I would need a new liver.
I just ordered this a week ago. I can't wait to get it. Awesome review!!! You are by far my favorite channel on here.
I can definitely see a very lovely Animated Megatron custom in the near future :)

Weird, when I first saw the thumbmail, some of the details(espically from the wings in robot mode) looked like LEGO! 😀
I thought that too hahaha
Always nice to see little touches and clever engineering in a figure. Shows some thought and love.

Wow. He is amazing. Can't wait for him to start shipping!
I'm getting a "Transformers Animated" megatron vibe from that helmet sculpt. Would this head fit onto the Siege Megatron figure?
Isn't the toy design supposed to be a big reference of Megatron's design for TFA S4 ?
@@kingpig.gamestudios Its based of his japenese comics if I remember after galvatron
@@kingpig.gamestudios This design for Megatron predates Animated
The wait is finally over and I am not surprised to see this channel post first :D

It's like $68 from Robot Kingdom including shipping. Just sell blood lol
Have you saw his disign from covenant of primus?
I’m gonna repurpose this guy as a generations Megatronus/ The Fallen
That can work really well consider with that Tlk face to give it a slightly different idendity
Also the wings can be use as an cape if you wish for an royal look
WE’RE FINALLY GETTING A SUPER MEGATRON TOY?!
We need an ultra megatron please 🤤
Um... that's a feature on the figure?
@@nightlypiano41 I meant a separated figure or 2 new figs of them based on their g1 incarnation.
Note: ultra megatron in G1 is titan class and has a more different altmode
I find in ironic Takara retooled the Titan Return Galvatron, just as Dark Nova used Galvatron to create Super Megatron
I am soooo glad to have paid the pre-order🥳👍 !!! This one is awesome 🤯! The design for the wings is so elegant when you deploy them !🥰😍
Star Convoy vs. Super Megatron: Transformers battle of the Century!
I forgot that I had preordered this and now I’m once again excited for this guy.
Soon as I seen the legs, Titans Returns Galvatron, but fair play looks amazing figure.
This figure is also available through Hasbro Pulse. And who else but me thinks they should retool this guy back into Galvatron but without the Titan Master gimmick?

Thank you for this review! Can't wait to add him to my shelf with Star Convoy. I bet we will see an upgrade kit to make him bigger.
Dude I’ve been waiting for this one! He looks so good!
WOW!!! Never thought this would be SO COOL! I must get one!
If you still want a Star Convoy, you can get him delivered to the UK for under £50 from AliExpress at the moment.
I swear Super Megatron must have been the inspiration for Animated Megatron because they look so similar.

That Megatron looks awesome 👍 I would love to see him in the new Transformers movie 🍿
Remind me of Marauder Megatron from Transformers Animated season 4 that still not happening.
that ship mode actually reminds me a lot of the studio series ship megatron and i wonder if it was the inspiration for movie megatron's design

You can still get the star convoy for a bit more but not astronomical like you said. Do you want one really?
This is such a good retool of the galvatron mood, I can’t wait to get it someday.
So glad I ordered 2. I’ll display one as Mega and one as Ultra!

Does he have a Titan master cemic?
i know this isn’t based on him, but this really feels like a generations version of animated megatron, he looks sick
I’m getting IDW Autobot Megs here in the body, Animated Megs in his head-sculpt and his alt mode,
Just from the thumbnail, this looks mad!
I would love more Takara selects figures.
When are you going to review the earthrise soundwave
Judging by thumbnail, I knew this was a retool of titans return Galvatron as I own him
Great review! Definitely gonna try to get one!
Thank you! & awesome!
The jet mode looks like a mix between TFA Megs and Siege Seeker vehicle modes
He comes with a very intimidating cannon. Complete with orange safety cap.
I personally hope we get some proper IDW figures in the near future.
I'm so into the new sculpting that it makes the legs seem like that much more of a shame. Some raptor looking toes would've just completed the look.
I'm getting this thing as soon as possible
Don’t know why but I got a Shattered Glass vibe from the robot mode. Maybe it’s the wings on the back and shoulder guns
It's like Animated Megatron and War Within Megs were fused together.
ITS SO COOL I WANT THIS IN MY COLLECTION!
