Product Description

The War Within Megatron will include a Decepticon insignia display platform. This version of Megatron is a hulking, mobile battle station, substantially more impressive than Megatronâ?TMs eventual Walther mode. In robot mode, rabid gun enthusiast Megatron is equipped with a back-mounted cannon, a shoulder-mounted cannon, and a forearm-mounted cannon. In vehicle mode, a segmented-tread tank, the monstrous cannon arsenal bristles forward to rain Hell and Primus on the Autobot forces. The War Within series explores the character of Megatron during the nascent days of his ravening complex. Initially, he has destroyed Sentinel Prime, and is shown brazenly displaying Sentinelâ?TMs severed head. The Autobots are somewhat dissembled and largely disillusioned, with Grimlock serving as a commander over one large faction. Megatron feels nothing but contempt where his enemies are concerned---and almost cheated of glory by the apparent lack of resistance.

This version of Megatron is adapted from the fun comic story, Transformers: The War Within. The 6" line has several figures based on that story line. These versions can only be found in the 6" titanium line and generally they're geared as affordable display pieces with diecast to pump up the display value; more then generally cheaper and all plastic play transformers to give to the kids. The "alt" mode, as with most of the titanium figures, is pretty decent and is really there to support the more excellent 'bot mode. Check out the comic story in trade paperback here at Amazon and pick up some other sweet War Within titanium: Fallen (smokin' hot), War Within Optimus Prime, Sunstorm. If you like TF and diecast, these are heaven.

4.0 out of 5 stars Best looking Megatron in robot mode, October 16, 2007

This review is from: Titanium Series Transformers 6 Inch Metal Megatron (Toy)

This Megatron is the best looking I've ever seen in his robot mode. What I particularly like is that you can tell that it IS Megatron just by looking at him (unlike Prime, whom you can tell who he is by looking at, no matter what variation, Megatron always looks completely different in each and every incarnation that he might as well just be a different character altogether).

My only gripe with this, other than the modifications I had to make to his cannon so it would stay on the side of his arm instead of going in his hand, is his tank mode. I like the concept of the tank mode, but the legs do not contract into the body well enough to be convincing. If they came all the way up to his waist, and combined together into a single block, he would have been perfect.
