Transformers Legacy Evolution Leader Transmetal II Megatron 21.5-cm Action Figure

Product Information

The Predacon known as Gnashteeth was an apprentice and even a friend to the Builder Double Punch. An amenable, open sort, even towards Maximals, though still egotistical, Gnashteeth was assigned as deputy administrator of the Dynamic Energon Distilleries Plant, a rare position for a Predacon in the Maximal-friendly Iacon, much less the Builder-dominated Cybertron. Within eight stellar cycles of his posting, having gradually absorbed more and more power from the uninterested Double Punch, he was promoted to administrator. From there, secretly advising Double Punch all the way, Gnashteeth managed to increase all of DED's energy output. Some twenty cycles after gaining the position, he made an appointment with Scorponok, a programmer with several decades of experience at the plant, to talk with him about an incident where the older Predacon had accidentally prevented a severe case of theft. The two talked about Scorponok's algorithms for a whole three megacycles, developing a rapport. I have the PE and I think it's great, my only complaint would be that I wish the face had a little better likeness. But it's certainly better than the Legacy face.

Prime 1 Studio’s artists have really outdone themselves with every panel, gear, and joint they have sculpted into Megatron. The figure is intensely rewarding to behold due to its minute accuracy, and intricate detail. From Megatron’s devilish sneer, and head-mounted prehensile tail, to his well-armored, talon-equipped feet...this Predacon is a thing of brutal beauty! Furthermore, Prime 1 Studio’s painters have given Megatron a well-worn, battle-damaged look, over his metallic rendering, and realistic weathering.

A Transmetal is a Transformer whose superstructure has been mutated by the quantum surge during the Beast Wars.

Japanese: Megatron (メガトロン Megatoron), Megalligator (alligator, メガリゲーター Megarigētā), Beast Megatron (ビーストメガトロン Bīsuto Megatoron) Vector Prime had speculated that the Dark Spark might have been the essence of a Megatron from an alternate timeline where the Maximals failed to stop his plot to absorb all of the sparks on Cybertron, among other explanations. Ask Vector Prime Of Masters and MayhemMegatron rebooted in time to meet the totality of the Children of the Vok in battle, facing off against Armordillo and Snarl before the Vok arrived. Deeming all Cybertronians too disruptive, the Vok prepared to kill them all via their reversion device. As the superweapon built up its charge, the Vok were fired on by the Axalon, now firing unspace beams which dissipated the energy beings. Considering the truce over, Megatron lunged at Primal only to be fired on by the unspace weapon. Motto: What does not destroy me makes me strong... what attempts to destroy me shall be obilterated. Megatron is skillful at orchestrating vast schemes by manipulating others into doing them for him—an idle suggestion here, a conspicuously planted object of interest there. He knows his enemies, and these include some minions, inside and out and exactly how to provoke them. He has no friends, only pawns, or occasionally, pawns that are too reliable to risk losing. Because of this attitude, this superiority complex, he despises working with the very troops he needs to carry out his plans. His hubris does not make him very popular, and so he must rely on power and fear to rule them. In fact, he prefers mindless drones. Megatron (aka Savage, Noble, Gnashteeth, Beast Megatron, Galavar and, um, Joe) began with one goal: restoring glory and power to the Predacon race, with himself at the helm. What distinguishes Megatron from the countless others who share this goal is his chutzpah. This is a guy who named himself after his faith's equivalent of the Antichrist. He is willing to risk everything—time, space, himself—if need be. He's willing to commit omnicide if it will further his goals. And there were times he would have won were it not for Optimus Primal. This move list presumes the player is facing right; when facing left, reverse the left and right inputs. Robot Mode

In fiction, this toy represents a transtector body initially owned by Beast Wars Megatron before coming into Generation 1 Megatron's possession. Tigerhawk used his elemental powers, channeled through his four katana, to dispatch hordes of zombie Predacon troopers with tornadoes and earthquakes. He then gathered up all the Maximals who had been separated from the team and returned them to Optimus Primal. Beast Wars Metals #6 The AllSpark Almanac Representing Megatron before his crash on Earth, Timelines Megatron is a retool and redeco of the Cybertron Ultra Class Cybertron Defense Red Alert toy, and transforms into a large, purple military vehicle similar to a cross between a Russian R-400 Oka mobile ballistic missile launcher and a BTR-90 armoured personnel carrier. The missile can be slid off from its holder, and the left side of his vehicle mode has a flip-up non-firing double-blaster, which can also be "used" in robot mode. Inserting the Golden Disk key (that's marked with the Predacon symbol) into the rear of the missile pops it in half and exposes the inner spring-loaded projectile-launching "laser cannon". Prime 1 Studio’s group of talented sculptors and painters, whose strengths lie in realistic depictions of machinery and rendering a variety of materials, absolutely shine when they get to work on a character like a Transformer. Megatron’s dragon form is the perfect example of this. More formidable and powerful than his previous form, Megatron’s new body can breathe fire AND ice! Here, we see him burst forth from a scorching lava pit, fully prepared to deal maximum damage.When he was upgraded to a Transmetal by a quantum surge, Megatron gained two VTOL engines in beast mode that granted him blazing atmospheric flight and the ability to "drop in" on unsuspecting Maximals with his whiplash cutlass. In robot mode, the fused reptilian musculature made him stronger in the organic form. Together, these traits made him a supreme tyrant. Transmetal Megatron bio. When Unicron began his abduction of Transformers across the multiverse, starting the Universe War, Primus called Optimus Primal out of the Allspark to lead his troops against Unicron. This action also freed Megatron's spark, and he returned to his typical plotting nature. Universe Then everything changed. Double Punch summoned Gnashteeth to his luxurious estate to inform his friend that due to his promotion to the Builder Assembly, he had to make someone chairman in his place. And it wouldn't be Gnashteeth. Outraged, the two began arguing, only stopping when Punch snapped that the Predacon should have shown gratitude for being allowed to get as far as he had. The only exception to these exotic re-imaginings was Rattrap, who used his tail/whip/spear as intended but also retained his pre-Transmetal gun (albeit with a redeco to suit his new color scheme), despite the fact that the toy did not. Ultra: Optimus & Megatron - probable release date - June 2001 (these are new additions to the list - I don't know if they will replace the 2 megas or if they are in addition to them, but these 2 along with the 4 deluxe will be the initial release"— BigBadToyStore, 2000/12/06(archive link)
