    This is the "Hegemon" Not-Megatron 3rd party figure with a few black paint apps on the face, some extra colors in his abdomen, and a few black and steel additions to better round out his look in both modes.
    Oh, and of course, a con symbol.

    This is the greatest Megatron figure I have ever had, right out of the box. Its been a long time since I actually carried a toy around with me often over a couple of days. I have transformed it several times now just to get used to the rather complex (similar to G1!) transformation, and I've had him in tons of evil poses in bot mode.
    If you like transformers at all, you need to go buy this guy.
    It didn't take much at all to make him so Megatrony, the Autobot in me wants to punch him in the balls.
    The Decepticon in me wants to sleep with it under my pillow though.

    Sweet! Mine should be here in a week or two and I was thinking of adding some similar detailing to the abdomen.

    Not bad, I'l like his chest pinstriping as as well, but that's pretty good.

    Remember, he has a strong waist ratchet too, not just the torso.

    Yes the right arm was a bit loose but still able to hold cannon poses. I tightened it up with the old superglue trick.

    Looks great. I tried painting the eyebrow bits on mine but it was just too hard. The area is too small. I'm just gonna hope reprolabels does a sticker for that.

    Wholeheartedly agree with your comments, and your subtle touch ups are the icing on this brilliant figures cake.
    Wish I had the confidence to approach those paint apps on the face, they make a hell of a difference.
