    To keep the story simple - I have an extra PRiD Voyager Prime, and decided to do this. The head is from the 2 pack tank Megatron and the fist is from some random 1/144 gundam hands and the cannon is from DOTM deluxe Jolt with some minor mods. Some minor add-ons here and there.

    I ran out of reprolabels Decepticon faction sticker. So, will add it when I have it. (currently on the way)

    Thanks for looking.

    is that the takara arms micron version? Nice mod on the head, is that the oreintation of the head or can he look up? My only gripe with the paint is the windshields are painted, other than that great work. Like the gundam hands!

    That is the Hasbro version, and yes, he can look up.

    That thing is solidly beautiful. It continues to sadden me how many amazing Megatrons the community has come up with vs how few interesting official ones are released. Also, my inability to do this saddens me, but it's easier to point the finger at Hasbro.

    I like it. Now, if only someone could make Optimus as a Cybertronian jet or gun.

    That is really great looking. I love the face as it makes the heroic proportions give the effect of Megs before he got a chip on his shoulder.
    My only issue with the vehicle mode. It really needs something to breakup all the silver, even if it's just a stripe.

    Otherwise too damn cool.

    Looks great in robot mode, the only thing I would say is in truck mode it's too flat...I would add color where possible that is wouldn't mess up the robot mode which is spot on. I might have to try this one

    The side panels that end up on his back may be a good place to change it up a bit.

    Yeah megs as a Truck really has been working out for a lot of sweet customs, and this is no exception. I love your interpretation of the character. This inspires me to want to pick up a Vger Prime and do something similar.

    Love it. It's occurred to me that I have a soft spot for truck Megatrons.
