There's also larger hi-res versions of the previously seen photoshopped images of the toy (using stock photos for the Blade Silver edition).
Triceradon:
Nice. I really like the red they used.
Type-R:
Judging by the box art, the Diamond Black Alternity Megatron figure may actually have the 'Con symbol tampoed on his waist.
The box art for the silver and blue versions didn't have their faction insignia and neither did the figures. I wonder why.
Rijie78:
Nice. The hi-res images are amusing - didn't realise the photoshop work was quite so crude! Still, all good ... pre-ordered this one from HLJ, first time I've ever felt inclined to get a repaint. Alternity Megs is a really excellent figure.
starscream1701:
So glad I waited for this rather than getting the Silver one.

saberconvoy:
that one has evil written all over it
Razorclaw:
This screams Bludgeon to me. Needs a new head.
llamatron:
Nice to see some orange in there to brighten up the standard black repaint.
videriant:
I'll wait for the white drift version. . .
SPLIT LIP:
You'd think a red/black colour scheme would make any Megatron mould look badass...
...It just makes this look okay to me.
TheIncredibleHulk:
When did Megatron become a pirate?

True dat. Does not look Megatrony.
RedWolf:
Let me ge this straight Alternity is about Convoys (Optimus Prime) and Megatrons from different universes in same body type but different color scheme.
That makes 1 silver, 1 red and 1 black Convoy and 1 silver, 1 blue and 1 black Megatron.
So factions entirely composed of Primes and Megatrons. That is so weird.

Just recieved the silver Megatron this morning from UPS, I am happy with the silver, hides the dust better than black. These are a little smaller than I thought, but very nice alt modes. Now to find a red Convoy
ams:
Delicious. The Alternity line has been a major high point for me this year, and I even like the size a bit better than Binaltech.
Looking forward to hearing about the next mold, TakTomy - let's make with the press release already.

Nope, the next Alternity is Bumblebee/Cliffjumper. Instead of the new mold x4, repaint, repaint Takara is going with the new mold-repaint-repaint move on to next mold strategy.
Ultrawave:
Is it wrong that I thought the panel behind his head in the box art was some sort of afro at first?

Of coarse it does. Bludgeon is the only TF that has ever had a Samurai look up until now.
I like this line a lot. I hope they keep things going for quite awhile with them. I was hoping even more that the Samurai theme would continue a bit with all the figures, but the artwork for Alty BB definitely doesn't have any Samurai look to it. Not that I can recognize anyways.
Maybe just the Decepticons are Samurai looking? Maybe just Megatron? Hopefully the 4th figure will be all Samurai'd up.

Too bad Super black Convoy kicked his ass.

He didn't just kick his ass. He kicked his ass, IS kicking his ass, and will continue to kick his ass forever.
Infinite time loops are a bitch.
Sol Fury:
Very nice
I must get a preorder in on this baby, now that I've seen it properly.

well he kicked that 1 megatron ass but BT megs (the blue one) could just get another auto-avatar or just block the shot once with his magic crotch and self repair... f**k its alternity anything can, will and has happened.
Now I do wonder what bat sh** crazy story BB/CJ has.

I have the Silver and the Blue one and all three colors of the Convoy...I love them all! I absolutely hated the piks I saw of the Blue Megs but having him in hand is a TOTALLY different story!
I definitely picking this one up and the Bumblebee and Cliffjumper!
[Wing_Saber-X]: WANT.

Iv'e already got the Blue version, but skipped the Silver. Black
IS the new Silver, baby!
Shark Jumper:
someone needs to digitize a barrel under Megatron's right foot (left), then he's Captain Morgan.
Mr.Sci-Fi:
Megs ain't black.
He's silver.
lilazndboi:
is there a similar artwork for the super black convoy?
shumworld:
that's one heck of a rawking deco.
1987olds442:
These Alternity figures just don't appeal to me.
With the swords and colors they picked and the overall design of the figure it reminds me of Bludgeon.
