    This no doubt is the art for the leaked test shot of "Swat" Optimus Prime with the black/white Fire/Gyro/Digger/Submarine and the Rodimus colored trailer.

    Damn, those are cool! I would have bought them had they been released. Especially if they'd been released with WST figures.

    I like that Megatron. If they would've released one of those, especially the with the smaller mold, I would have bought it. The Prime would be iffier though, I'd have to see it in person to decide.

    Yep, The Lucky Draw is the Smaller Version Repaint (Black/Red/Gold) & The Unreleased Megs (the one that is based on the artwork in auction) is larger version of the mold.

    (I do have both Lucky Draw/Smaller & Unreleased/Larger.)

    Megatron artwork looks nice in my opinion,

    Would have been nice if Hasbro could release these as "Universe Energon Series" toys.

    Both look good, but Megs looks the best out of the two. Would be cool to at least see the Megatron repaint finally make it to retail, if not both of them.

    Not going to lie, I really like the artwork, rock solid baby. The colours are all right for all three, really like the black and red Prime. Somewhere, somehow....a Radicon is repainting these guys as such..........

    probably wouldn't have bought. Didn't like the prime and the original deco of megs (and the SG version) was better. Interesting find, though.

    I'd like to see these two get new heads and released as some kind of club exclusives... What other characters could they be with the right heads?

    If these things were made and are still sitting in some warehouse then Hasbro, PLEASE release them. I want to buy them both!

    Well, a new head and paintjob for Energon Megatron's mold would be excellent as Universe Thunderwing. A great companion toy for the upcoming ROTF Bludgeon.

    As for Prime, he had a truck, helicopter, drill, submarine, and a firetruck. That's one hell of a mixed bag.

    I'm going to take a long shot here and say Universe Liokasier. Even though the only vehicles are different (except for the drill), there's only 1 robot, and there are 5 instead of 6, just give him a remolded head and combiner head. That way you can have the combiner head shaped like a lion's and it can flip over the smaller head making it appear like Liokaiser.

    Other suggestions would be Menasor (truck), Defensor (firetruck & helicopter), or Computron (drill).

    HOWEVER, given the great variety of vehicles, I'd say the best course of action would be to make him into Universe Landcross.
