Nice review! I have one too and am in love with it. Mine's mint with unapplied stickers! Quite proud of it actually =D Hey your instruction looks like mine as it has the drawn instruction on the last page instead of the photo one. Does your Transformers logo in the front page says TM or R?
if only if they could make the masterpiece version as easy to transform as this 1 the world would be a better place what gets me is how difficult the new transformer toys are to t? i mean if an adult cant do it how am u gonna expect a 5year old to?
@wolves862 funny, ive often thought about that myself. i have loads of transformers i never look at cause im put off by way to over complicated transformations
Hey Graham, Question for you! Is Megatrons legs really wobbly? mine wobbles all over the place.. Granted it's a KO, so that probably isn't helping him, but I'm just curious if there's any way to hold his legs in place or anything.. take care buddy!
@thecollector75 the peice you transformerd at 5:05 through 5:11 (peice that goes under right arm I believe it is th gun barrel) can it go behind his back like the television series?
Hey, cool reviews!! ;) I got the reissue takara collection 6 megatron and I had trouble pullin d chest up wen transforming him in2 robot mode and now it wont go back down wen tryin 2 turn him back 2 gun mode.. wud u hav any ideas wot d problem is??
@antopio1 its prob just a catch that is a bit stiff. see if you can see which part should push in to allow the section to lower and then see if you can push it in with a small pen or screw driver and then push the section down. hope that helps
A small "boy" his transformers and matchs what a combo.... did u have fun burning him to death there graham......did u get in trouble for doing it any way Great review
Excellent review. I absolutely love g1 Megs too. I angle his legs when he's on display in robot mode so that his legs don't look like sticks, as that bugs me too, but this is a minor fault as he is just so cool. : )
As always a truely wonderful review of a classis toy mate. One of the Transformers that every fan should own. Transforming him back to gun mode was scary for me because the part that clipped to his back was on so tight I thought I'd brake it I had to pull so hard. I love this toy and wouldn't be withut it now
i know it clicks when you pull the trigger, but im sure when i was a kid i tried putting things in him but could never get him to shoot. i may have a go at that as i do have a japanese 1 too so ill let you know what happens
Wow, never saw that shoulder cannon mode before. And he can actually stand with that huge monstrosity attached to him...unlike MP megs who can barely lift up his arm with his cannon mounted : (
Fantastic review as always Graham. Im a bit jealous though that your original has tight joints and my re-issue had loose joints on the Fusion Cannon arm. Bugger. But regardlesss, fantastic!
all my re-issues of him seem to have loose joints, thats kinda why i decided to do the original and not 1 of the re-issues i have knocking about, glad you liked it
Great review man, I nearly wept when I heard you only had to pay £30 for a boxed Megatron in that kinda condition back in the 90's, what a difference a few years makes!! I wish I had fell off the plastic addict wagon again a few years earlier, lol!! I got back into the TF's around RID :( 5 stars man, your reviews are a cut above :)
i remember thinking at the time id been ripped off lol £30 i thought, the thing only cost £17.99 in argos 10 years ago. god im a tight git sometimes lol , cheers dude !!
I LOVED this figure too!!! Still love it, I got a G1 prerub version a year ago. I remember my older cousin had one back in the day and he would NEVER let me hold it. :0(
Nice. A G1 Megatron review. My favorite cartoon villain.
I was hoping you'd do a propper G1 Megatron review. And I guess my wish came true.
Although I agree with everybody that his alt mode is fucking awesome, I don't think that a lot of people agree with me that his robot mode is just quite shitty. I guess all the Transformers from that year are like that, but we forgive their bad robot modes because they are G1.
really glad you liked it, he robot mode is a bit poor but like you say , we can forgive that as he is g1 and a great transformation and a real looking alt mode
probably one of the most uh... 'convincing' alt modes I've ever seen. I wish they made more die-cast transformers and sold them at Wal-Mart. robot mode could prolly be better but it's g1 so i forgive him.
i cant believe i havent done this guy yet i only have the japan reissue i was thinking of getting the new black megs but im a bit skint at the momment because iv got to pay for masterpeice grimlock on thursday and thats £109 i cant wait to get that in the next couple of weeks
i want to get mp grimy too, but im not sure i can justify £110 on him ( but i know i will pay it ) guess i must be as predictable as my girlfriend says lol
