    Looks nice but I'm still selling mine and will be getting Apollyon down the road.

    ^ I would rather see someone come up with a way of taking the sliding portion of the cannon out and attatch that over his right shoulder. Its what i have planned but I have the armada version and cant figure out how to separate the cannon.

    the hands are nice though the leg panels fill it out nice but the feet seem to big to me

    You are right, but for someone who keeps them in bot mode this is perfect

    That's where he's going on the shelf, personally. Apollyon will get displayed separately.

    I already liked cw meg over apollyon initially, and was gonna display it next to my MP10, this upgrade should make my display even better. hope this upgrade doesn't cost as much as the fig.

    This is okay, need to see more pics I guess. I might wait to see what else come out though...

    Wish the hands were a little bulkier, they look really slender in this pic.

    Wish the the pieces to fill out the calfs were a little more smoothed out to be more MP/toon style.

    The fusion cannon add-on looks weird from the angle in that photo.

    Leader Megs - 49.99

    Leader Megs Upgrade parts - 54.99 (this is a SWAG on price)

    Would you buy an upgrade that costs more than the figure it's upgrading?

    Ooh...I like.

    Of course, the price is what will be the deciding factor.

    Looks way better in robot mode now...but with all the partsforming that will be required I still feel nothing for this figure. You could make any robot mode look good by adding a bunch of parts that don't do anything in alt mode and if want a better MP Megatron you may as well just save for Apollyon instead.

    He is in my display.

    *shrug*

    I really love what this upgrade does for him, too. Insta-buy.

    The last DX9 upgrade, the AOE Evasion Prime, turned out really nice...and also had some places for the new pieces in alt-mode...maybe this one will also

    Personally can't hardy wait. DX9 stuff is good and makes him look great. Perfect size for MP prime stomping action.

    Are there upgrades that cost LESS than the mass market Hasbro toys? Heck, even some reprolabel sets cost more than the toys they fit on.
