It has a menacingly cool headsculpt, great articulation, and an overall awesome design. A few tweaks were needed however. First the toes were removed and the treads there resculpted. Then a larger slip-on left arm was made from a Wheelie claw and Spawn Interlink arm. I also gave Megs a larger cannon using part of an Energon Megatron that slips on as well.
His eyes/mouth do in fact light up. There's an LED kit that fits into his backpack space and attaches through the back of his head using a dedicated on/off switch. Now for the kicker...Megatron is still green! I loved the green/black color scheme they gave him so much I upgraded it to a gunmetal silver with subtle sea-blue/green metallic shading, kinda like oxidization perhaps from sitting on the bottom of the ocean for so long. That coupled with lots of scuffs, oil splatters, and other metallic colors created the perfect color scheme. Now Megatron is ready to take on Prime once and for all!

All those electronics and gimmick gears made the LC like a brick. "If my father were alive, I could make him proud!" |

I just got this figure last night, and these pictures have cemented my plans on my own custom.
Two small bits of critiquing- The treads should maybe have been given some silver treatment. The black is rather flat.
Although he desperately needed a new left arm, I'm not keen on the parts-former aspect of the new cannon. The Wheelie hand is well done, but the cannon barrel doesn't fit the style of the tank as a whole.
