    I would either have him go back to his original Alt.mode and color scheme, or I would give him a very dark color scheme, which would make the glow of his eyes even more menacing, and I would give him a stealth drone Alt.mode, so that he could easily strike down unexpecting Autobot forces

    Wait wait wait, if that's what you'd want for Megatron, then what'd you want for Optimus?

    Black with grey and red highlights. Transforms into pave low helicopter, rotors form cape of blades, tail forms massive death claw/ rail gun, other arm formed out of cockpit. Wings and sides contribute to the legs.

    Gunmetal grey and black with purple to break up the greyscale.

    I've got an idea for a six changer megatron. Meant to homage as many megatron's as possible.
    Tank (g2, rotf, and armada)
    Dragon (beast wars and rid)
    Jet/spaceship (machine wars, energon, movie 07, prime, idw bomber bod)
    Gun (g1, the idea being the dragon head/neck forming the barrel)
    Some kinda speedy demon batmobile thing (cybertron, rid again)
    Robot of corse being the 6th mode
    Deco wise we'd stick to mostly g1/movie/prime grey and silver. Maybe some accents of g2 and armada green

    Maybe a more prominent presence of red on him, but placed tastefully.

    Just a reminder Jet... this forum, TFGD is not for TF toy discussions, we have a dedicated forum for that.

    Keep the discussions for character changes you'd like to see/suggest.
    Thanks, mpl



    Oh.... and knock off the spam posts folks, keep it on topic or kindly keep it to yourself.....


    Much appreciated.

    Update: Thanks to all those who checked the rules and helped to keep this thread on topic...

    The thread has been cleaned up and ready to discuss the OP's topic...
    ...... for clarification:


    12. No Spam
    We do not allow spamming in our general forums. Spam is relegated to the Fuzzy World Forum. The Fuzzy World is a perk for TFW2005 Supporters.

    Q. What is considered spam?
    A. Spam can include, but is not limited to, a single or series of nonsense or non sequitur off-topic posts, such as a link to a facepalm JPG or "LOLWUT??" type posts. It can also include topics where the subject matter is clearly nonsensical. Generally staff will decide on a case by case basis - as a rule, if a post seems silly or excessively off-topic, it could be considered spam.

    F117 Nighthawk/Stationary Turret Triple Changer

    Instead of black, the Nighthawks primary color is Gunmetal Gray with red cockpit windows and accents.

    The stationary turret in a made up model with a Cybertronian-esque aesthetic

    In robot mode, Megatron's chest is formed by the cockpit of the jet broken up to harken back to his G1 self and he has big shoulders like Armada Megaton sans treads formed by the portion of the jet behind the cockpit and his turret barrel is positioned on his back like G1 but folds underneath like Armada Megatron for battle. His arm can also transform into a Claw-like fusion cannon

    His legs are strong and sleek and his overall appearance is imposing but handsome. His demeanor is charming and charismatic while calm but monstrous and bombast while angry and in battle.

    And he is voiced by Frank Welker doing a whole new voice which is like basically his Megatron with less rasp and more boom, but still demonic and roar-like while angry.

    This really depends on the show/series. Unfortunately, Transformers has become so formulaic that I don't really expect anything from a Megatron design anymore. I would like Hasbro to try something different (Space?, Cybertron??, ANYTHING???) but I'm pretty sure that the next show will feature yet another 5 man band with your generic kid sidekick going up against (insert generic Megatron design here). I would love to see Megatron take a break from RID but I just don't see it happening.

    Me, I'd go with a charcoal-gray stealth bomber for the alt-mode (close to Figueroa's ATB design); the engine would become the right-arm-mounted fusion cannon to give the cannon a slightly more conventional look. Also, I'd probably give him more of a Nazi-soupbowl helmet instead of Movie-style-Sharp-&-Pointifying the ol' G1 Buckethead.

    I'd make him someone who constantly changes alt modes as the whim takes him. He could have a large collection of alt modes, from normal forms like jets, tanks, helicopters, etc, to beast forms like dragons, hydras, or even a tyrannosaur. Each new alt mode would result in a different robot mode, of course, but common elements would be a Beast Machines-style helmet and mantle.

    Repaint him as Emirate Xarron

    Would the Wreckers combiner head based on Xarron fit on Masterpiece Megatron?
