At this point, I'd settle for IDW to put the potential season 4 opener into comic form as a mini series. Would serve as a nice trial to see if the idea sold well. Get either the people who worked on the series to write new stuff, or get the guys who did the Ghostbusters x Transformers crossover to handle it. I'd trust them after that effort.

Nice! I always thought that hasbro missed a trick by not making human figures that would scale well with the bigger figures

Absolutely yes, it's a fantastic representation of Megs, and he has an undeniable shelf presence

No joke, I keep swishing around the helicopter mode, it is so slick and really well built

Yes, he's a very hefty and solid figure. One of my favorites as well. I couldn't help seeing a little bit of him in the recently revealed Super Megatron.

Megatron is a great toy, no doubt. I normally dislike electronics in figures, but this guy is the sole exception. I used to set up interrogation scenes using his voice clips, going something like this:

Megs: "Where is the Allspark?"
Autobot prisoners: "We don't know!"
Megs (to Decepticon guards): "Crush the Autobots!"
Deception guards: *move in to crush the Autobots*
Megs: "Hahahahahaha!"

Well, naturally, since Animated Megs is himself heavily based on the Super and Ultra Megatron designs.

Dang! I really want a lot of these guys! At the moment, my priority list looks something like this:
Shockwave
Blackarachnia
Megatron
Sentinel
Blurr
Samurai Prowl
Swoop
Soundwave with Laserbeak
Honestly, though? I'd love any of them!

They're cool, I just don't see them as top-priority. Swoop is my favorite Dinobot.

My animated collection needs more cons itself, Megatron is only the 2nd to Shockwave. Blitzwing is at the top of that con list to get now

Good luck with Blitzwing! I'm not sure which one I want to get next :-? I might try and get Oilslick, motorbike cons are awesome :lol:

I've got 5 more Animated figures coming from one of our admins, which includes Blitzwing, so I am super stoked to see them wednesday!

It also means I need to make my Animated shelf bigger now

Blitzwing, Starscream, Rodimus, Arcee, and Lockdown.

I also have Grimlock, Snarl, Swoop, and Oilslick on hold from Cary, just need to actually do that transaction to secure them!

I think the only ones left for me to find are Sentinel, Wreck Gar, Lugnut, Swindle, Blackarachnia, and Waspinator

Well, I can cross Wreck Gar off this list, just won one for $10 on Amazon.ca!
