Meteor Operation on Facebook has posted an in-hand look at the GDO Voyager Megatron toy. A remolded version of Bludgeon, GDO Megatron sports a new head and a deco recalling Generation 2 Megatron. The head sculpt is interesting and full of personality, though your mileage may vary on how far an overtly Classic styled head fits the skeletal movie-styled Bludgeon body.
Check out the full gallery by opening the links above.

First, welcome to the boards. Second, bumping 3 year old threads is usually not a good idea. Congrats on the find!

Epic necro thread!
Still a great figure, though.

A samurai Megs?
I'm currently working on getting this figure and my thoughts on it are mixed but for the most part, he's pretty much a "must get".
It's a shame about the design flaw in the hands but eh. He'll be a nice enemy for my RTS Deluxe Prime to pummel.

Enough of this mold,they keep using it over & over again

I found Megatron today in the USA! (I hope this isn't old news). He rang up at $22.99 in Johnson City, TN at a Toys R Us.
I didn't pick up the figure, but I did take a picture.

The head would be awesome on another mold, but wow, I really hate this thing. I'm not a fan of many of the G2 figures, but this guy wins for ugliest IMO.

hate it. bludgeon was cool but hasbro didn't have to reuse the bludgeon mold for megatron
Pravus Prime
I rather like the head, but it just doesn't work on Bludgeons body. At all.

Those lips are so IDW Overlord!

Good god is that ugly. And I *like* G2 color schemes…

i kinda wanted to get this guy, because i wanted every version of the mold… but this doesn't look good, i've already got a better Banzaitron from Botcon, and i'm really thinking about selling Botcon Overlord because I'm just not a fan of that head… but for those who dig this, enjoy. the mold is definitely fun.
Prime Aspect
I gotta be contrarian and say that I think the face is terrible. It looks like a human face in a robot helmet. I guess that is fairly accurate to the G2 comics look, but I thought those were terrible as well.

I'll probably pick one up……they're like…..$5, right?

Other then the face, this is a very bad Megatron. E.Z.P.A.S.S.

I have decided that I do really like these colors on this mold. I am going to get him, but I am giving him a different head. I'm still waiting for a Megatron tank mold done in his Action Masters tank color scheme though. That would be awesome! Well, actually they kind of are the same colors, but more green than black.
Metroplex79
Well, Megatron did rip off the head of his pretender shell in the comics…payback?
So, without the G2 logo, does this mean it's like UK G1?
Terrible mold for it. Paint and color scheme is ok, but the mold is soooo wrong for it. I guess if you like Samarai Batman you'll like this.
Pass for me.
Chaos Prime
I don't know. The head sculpt looks great. But I'm not sure this is a great combination.
Primal Sabbath
Definitely going to try picking this up. It'll fit in well on my Classics shelf with RTS Prime (with Battle Tanker).
Girl Pants
I feel like a total hypocrite for saying this but somehow this works so much better than Overlord even though I should have the same objections.
Maybe it's my love of G2, maybe it's that Megatron has been more skeletal and samurai-like over the years, maybe I'm just being mean to FunPub….
Either way, I'm buying this and Powerdive asap.

that head just doesnt fit that body.
