@@wyattramsey-vj6mh If you're talking about Siege Soundwave, the lamppost mode isn't a fan mode, it's an official secret mode. You can find a picture of it on the side flap on the bottom of the box.
I know it's a testament to Hasbro's resourcefulness, but they really love the SS RotF Megatron crotch transformation, huh? From my memory, that has been used 3 times now: -SS RotF Megatron (its debut) -SS DotM Shockwave -and now SS BBM Concept Art Megatron
Well, all of them do transform into a tank with similar body parts forming the alt-mode. It's the kind of if it ain't broken, don't fix it philosophy, which is good.
"I would have waited an eternity for this." My plan for this guy when I eventually get him is to transform him into jet mode first, then transform him back to robot mode, then transform him to tank mode, and transform him back to robot mode again. Also, you're the first person reviewing this figure to actually have a positive opinion of the tank and jet modes!
They probably didn’t want to bring him into a movie at that movie because he apparently was off planet in the first movie and he wasn’t going to be a good choice for the ROTB because it involved Unicron and Megatron wouldn’t need to have been Galvatron yet. So the next movie I think he will be brought out.
This is pretty cool. Hasbro was able to take a concept design of Megatron for the Bumblebee movie, which more than likely didn't have an alt. mode and turned it into a triplechanger. That's impressive, if you ask me. 😁👍
Cool! did not expected to be a triple changer! It nice to see new triple changes since only a few new ones, other are just rehash of G1 Best of all for me is no part forming at all and tank turret can rotate still.
I’ve always been a fan of a triple changing Megatron as opposed to just choosing one or the other in different Transformers series. If Megatron ever returns in the movieverse, I hope they keep the triple changing Megatron concept
Well, gun megatron is and always will be a stupid concept and idea... I know G1 and stuff but G1 came out in 1984, we have 2024, just because its G1 it doesn't mean its good. I think a Tank and Heavy bomber plane would be great for a triple changing megsy @@redalert923
Man, it's been a while since I've checked the channel. Glad to see that not much has changed. Even the skits! You just don't seem to get old. Is it because you don't stop playing?
Finally someone sane ! I really loved your review as always , how can anyone purchase this knowing what the al modes look like and criticize their appearance totally insane ! You on the other hand, described exactly what it is Cybertronian , thank you! Please note that according to pictures I came upon there is supposed to be two more alt modes!
Glad to see I'm not the only one having trouble with the jet mode holding together. I was hoping your review would show me a mistake I was making, but it really is that loose a connection.
I was able to get the jet mode tabbed in. It just requires the elbows to be bent a certain way to be tabbed in and the thighs turned very precisely so that everything tabs in as stable as you can get it.
If you want to squeeze another video out of this guy, you could show off some of the fan modes people have found for him. He's practically RiD '01 Megatron's successor.
Hey Emgo I've been watching you're videos for years you always explain everything very well , I feel I know you, anyway you probably already know but you can also turn this meg into a laser gun , their is a video, and you add the fusion gun from seige meg as the scope and there's a new kit out you can buy for him an extension for the barrel which makes the silencer and a cool sword that comes with it that you put on the other side, thank you for your presentations of your videos and dog keep watching just wanted to let you know.
I was gonna say my one complaint about this Megatron is the mouth as it’s shown in all the renders of this design, but the fact his weird ripped cheek mouth isn’t as obvious on the head, I have no complaints. I can’t wait to get my hand on this figure. Love your vids as always EmGo
I always enjoy watching your videos. This is Korea. They say Megatron will arrive soon. When he arrives, I will watch your video and transform him. Thank you for always great videos. Emgo is the best. 😍👍
How dare you Megs! His one eye is absolutely gorgeous. GORGEOUS I SAY!!! LOL 😮 i love it. Now that you've recieved yours I should get my hasbro pre-order in 2-2 1/2 weeks roughly. It tends to be the pattern I noticed. As for all those storage options he has in robot mode for his lone cannon. I can see possible upgrades/repaints for this figure. With the plug port on the sholder I can imagine a G2 comic style repaint with a small hand blaster or sword for him to weild. Or an upgrade piece to go on the back connector to give him his pistol barrel on his back to get that classic G1 look. This added barrel could be used as an extended tank howitzer, or a missle pod for his flight mode. Which if his flight mode was more stealth bomber sculpted he could get his black repaint too.
Definitely an example of why simplicity is better, and Megatron being a tank is the best fit. That said, I've always said Megatron would be cool as an A10 Warthog. And with the gun in the place it is in the jet mode, it kinda serves the same purpose. It's not a gatling, but the idea remains largely the same. It's a gun ship. Anyway, its an amazing figure i cant wait to own it.
In the plane mode I always combine the canon with both arms but with the panel on the canon extended almost like the tank mode but different, I find it makes everything feel MUCH more solid. Pro tip 😂
You can thicken up the jet mode's underside tabs with furniture polish though, right? At least the jet mode conceals the robot head better than the tank.
I don't mind the cannon being non-centered in jet mode either. How many Transformers are perfectly symmetrical? I hope I can find this in my local Target or Walmart stores, but I'm not holding my breath.
@@companylovesmisery1463 Me personally, when I get this Megatron in hand, I'm gonna fold up the cannon and store it on top of the jet mode so that Megatron can have asymmetrical thrusters.
Funny how I've seen my entire life, Megatron transform into a tank and a jet, or a gun. Yet I have never ever thought of Megatron being a triple changer until now😂😂😂
The last time we ever got a triple changing Megatron figure was in Titans Return. But the last time we ever saw a triple changing Megatron in animation was in _Transformers: Cybertron._
Great figure overall. Actually don't mind the dark grey plastic as I'm surprised he got as much silver paint as he did. Only realized he had a thigh swivel when I tried out the transformation. Love how solid and filled in this figure feels in robot mode. Tank mode is definitely the strongest of his two modes as the jet mode transformation is quite involved and not very much fun. Can not wait for the SS Bee Shockwave to release.
NOTE: I don't do fan modes. Thank you :)
@@MichaelBennett-wb3vi He has a fan made gun mode
same here :)
Yo did it with war for cybertron Soundwave

@franzise3605 no I'm talking about the game
I am the dominator, I am the destroyer, I AM MEGATRON!!!
No " I am Megatron " speech can compare to that one
“Megatron is commanded by no one!” Transformers Prime
No, you’re not
He is also master of burritos
One of his best lines from War for Cybertron game, ever.

@@jkliao6486 Agreed
The head reminds me of the War for Cybertron design. Mostly because of the permanent scowl/massive chin
It does give a War for Cybertron vibe to him, doesn't it?
not nearly as good looking though
i love the design. megs looks like he has gone through a lot of mods
You DO look GOOD Megatron. Can't wait for Bumblebee Movie Shockwave though.
"I would have waited an eternity for this."

Also, you're the first person reviewing this figure to actually have a positive opinion of the tank and jet modes!
The jet mode looks like they tried to mix the ROTF jet mode and the TF Animated Cybertron jet mode into one!
Megatron in Revenge of the Fallen turned into a tank with jet thrusters
They probably didn’t want to bring him into a movie at that movie because he apparently was off planet in the first movie and he wasn’t going to be a good choice for the ROTB because it involved Unicron and Megatron wouldn’t need to have been Galvatron yet. So the next movie I think he will be brought out.
All hail Megatron king of the burritos!!!
just wait till BB Shockwave comes out for that skit at the end
HOW DARE THEE NOT BRINGING THE MAIN VILLAIN INTO THE REBOOTVERSE!!! I’m hoping Frank welker or Fred Tatasciore will reprise the role for megatron
To be fair this was the time where they themselves not sure if this is a reboot or not
@@megatron2171 well since rise of the beasts and TF ONE, it's safe to say it's official it is indeed a reboot
Or David Kaye
@@TheRisingStorm316 idk I think if the maximals and predacons exist in the knightverse I think kaye should reprise as Beast Megatron

They had a triple changing Megatron in Cybertron

Are we ever going to get a “dude where’s my couch?” Anniversary?
I got mine in the early days of January, and i wasn't disappointed, i loved it so much
Man, it's been a while since I've checked the channel. Glad to see that not much has changed. Even the skits!
You just don't seem to get old. Is it because you don't stop playing?
Exactly :)

Those are fan modes. Not official. I don’t do fan modes.
I do not mean fan modes it is a hasbro picture of 2 other vehicle modes , love to send you a picture ! If I can! No gun mode here!
The pictures you saw are two vehicle modes?
Emgo, this, I must say, is what Megatron peak performance looks like. Molto bene 👌
Honestly I like him. Might pick him up if I see him in store
Same
You'll never see him 😂
@@youtubepunisher8695you must be 5 huh
great job about Studio Series 109 Leader Class Concept Art MEGATRON Action Figure from Transformers
And the universe will rejoice, all hail your grand and glorious return
Okay, what’s his malfunction?
The Achai back cannon and LED cannon barrel upgrades for this figure look _really_ good.
Glad to see I'm not the only one having trouble with the jet mode holding together. I was hoping your review would show me a mistake I was making, but it really is that loose a connection.
Love the bloosh in the final shot
Man, that looks really good! Great review!
Such a perfect design going unused is an injustice
“Perfect design going unused, Starscream? This is bad comedy!”
I'm usually pretty good at figuring out transformations, but this guy puzzled me. Great video, Emgo! Very helpful!
All hail the Burrito Lord!!! Can't wait to get this concept Megatron in hand and also he'll look good next to that Reactivate Optimus Prime.
You did the bloosh compatible!! Yeyy!!!!
Ah, the couch is back!
It has been SO LONG since we have had a Megs review!!
I haven't watched emgo in years and just hearing those first 10 seconds brought a tear to my eye
His intro changed... His video images changed but his mannerisms are still the same. We love you man
Looks great! Wish there was a little more shading or outline between the face and bucket though.
This unused design of Megs is glorious.
You're so lucky to get him right away. He's still on pre-order in BBTS.
I was able to get the jet mode tabbed in. It just requires the elbows to be bent a certain way to be tabbed in and the thighs turned very precisely so that everything tabs in as stable as you can get it.
Is he a Terminator T-1000 or a cybertronian? Look at that head sculpt!
You must be referring to the T-800. The T-1000 is made entirely of liquid metal.
This is the best Megatron figure that Hasbro has made and it has four modes to it.
If you want to squeeze another video out of this guy, you could show off some of the fan modes people have found for him. He's practically RiD '01 Megatron's successor.

There is a hidden fourth mode. A fan created weapon mode.
There's actually about 12 different modes for him surprisingly
@@lous2187 I’ve heard there’s close to 20. With all the fan modes, this Megatron beats RID 2001 Megatron in terms of number of alt modes.
That tank mode seems very evocative of the RotF Leader Class figure.
I think this is the best megatron we've ever gotten
It looks like a mashup. Terminator/transformers. The head sculpt is reminiscience of t800. Looks amazing!
I was gonna say my one complaint about this Megatron is the mouth as it’s shown in all the renders of this design, but the fact his weird ripped cheek mouth isn’t as obvious on the head, I have no complaints. I can’t wait to get my hand on this figure.
Love your vids as always EmGo
If anyone is interested, he fits quite well in Corination Starscream's throne.
Still waiting for this figure to come out of preorder on big bad so I can get it
This rendition of Megs absolutely kills it at Cybertronian Yoga.
RID 2001 Megatron is a close runner-up with having six modes (and as Galvatron he has ten)
I always enjoy watching your videos. This is Korea. They say Megatron will arrive soon. When he arrives, I will watch your video and transform him. Thank you for always great videos. Emgo is the best. 😍👍
A triple changer Megs sounds awesome
How dare you Megs! His one eye is absolutely gorgeous. GORGEOUS I SAY!!! LOL 😮

Im usually not a fan of movieverse figures but i picked this one up and am quite happy with it!
24:02 Shockwave: Lord Megatron why do you change your looks every single year?
Where'd you get that purple bloosh? Also, not having Starscreams wings pointed up is blasphemy lol
I really love this figure, no wonder when i visited the comic con last year the item was so hot it was cleared up fast
A concept that would really be groovy: "Optimus Prime"-(Triple Changer!!!!) Robot, (Cab-Over) Truck, & Mobile ATM UNIT!!!! 😄
Robot, Trukk and Monke
i love this megatron so much
Lord of the burritos 🌯
the head looks like the firt film one with a chin-guard and the g1 helmet. I approve
Definitely an example of why simplicity is better, and Megatron being a tank is the best fit.

Those small posts in tank mode allllmost look like Glyos pegs which is just WILD to think about.
"The Universe Will Hear My Name And TREMBLE!!!"

Jet mode reminds me tfp
In the plane mode I always combine the canon with both arms but with the panel on the canon extended almost like the tank mode but different, I find it makes everything feel MUCH more solid. Pro tip 😂
my nitpick is the face it needed to be darker then the helmet , cause i see terminator as megatron
All hail Megatron
I need it!!!
missed out on this and not paying stupid online prices for it. Just gonna get the Black Mamba version I think.
Hay emgo when studio bumblebee movies shockwave comes out you should do a ending joke about shockwave changing his look!
Looks like a Terminator Megatron with that face and perhaps body. Skynet concept design.
I love how it looks like they ran out of things to spend money on so they made the fusion Canon store eight different ways
Emgo, have you looked into all the fan modes people have come up with for this figure? I'd love to see an expanded JTI with them if you have the time.
I don’t do fan modes
You can thicken up the jet mode's underside tabs with furniture polish though, right? At least the jet mode conceals the robot head better than the tank.
Also, you can take the cannon off and attach it to the top of the jet mode, just like in the concept art for this figure
I don't mind the cannon being non-centered in jet mode either. How many Transformers are perfectly symmetrical? I hope I can find this in my local Target or Walmart stores, but I'm not holding my breath.

Those vehicle modes definitely feel like they half assed 2 things instead of whole assing 1 thing.

The "jet" mode's wings look a tad small for my taste, but other than that i think this figure is awesome
aw yeah MEGATRON
I ordered megs and he should be here this Friday I’m so hyped
I want this guy so much! He would look amazing next to rotb prime
Now we need the ss shockwave sitting on the couch with him
And then they can recreate "Dude, Where's My Couch?"
I LOOK GOOD! ... in bot mode. The alt modes are ... something. I mean, his jet mode makes Legacy Blitzwing look positively aerodynamic. :)
After seeing the shoulder cannon option, I fully expect someone to do a G2 custom repaint of this toy.
If you use BattleTraps wrecking Ball and Optimus primals chain you can recreate Megatron's G1 weapon. That's what that extra attachment point is.
Pegs don't match
I love how he says mode
This just reminded me of what happened to Megatron's arm in the Skybound comics. Do you think it's possible to swap that of Earthrise Megs onto Prime?
i look forward to the inevitable knock offs with more paint, light up eyes and rescaled
This is what all the bay transformer should’ve looked like from the get go
hes a triple changer!!!
Funnily enough there is a secret 4th mode of his G1 mode
A "fanmode", yeah@@darkmage9252

what would be nice is if he has the second barrel on his back as a second weapon. it could use the same mechanics as the cannon storage.
“I am……Megatron”
They try to get a good Vehicle mode for megatron.
oh I NEED this figure
