Thanks again to TFW2005 member S250 who has found and posted more pictures of Megatron from Transformers Revenge of the Fallen. The pictures show Megatron in a new vehicle mode, now resembling a Cybertronian tank. This was previously rumored for the upcoming film.

Bummer you can see his head there looking at you between the treads and under the barrel.

That would be slick. Have Stampy from Beast Wars Neo pop up on screen as a cameo. "Do a barrel roll!"
Sig idea. Awesome.

Hey guys it has been a long time since I posted anything on here. Between college and moving who has time. Enough about me lets talk about the real juice here.
I remeber seeing images of Megatron when the 1st movie came out, and my reaction was like anyone elses. "what the hell it that a stainless steel tribal tattoo that walk, ugghh!"
After seeing the largly successful movie I can now appreciate and image like this. I would still prefer and earth mode, but hey this is Megatron, he hates humans and his Cybertronian/Decepticon blood runs so deep that he would never tarnish his pride to be a primative earth vehicle. So I see the sense in this design now that I know what his movie character is all about.
I'll tell ya this is going to make one bad ass figure, and I can proudly say that I love it. I just wish Hot Rod and Ultra Magnus makes their screen debutes down the road
nice to see you all again, peace fellow Trans Fans

Would be cool as a cybertronian triple-changer (tank-ship-bot…ala Blitzwing!)
Deadend
So the fallen becomes a persona of megatron temporarily…
Wonder where I heard that idea before…
Fort Max
Looks like something a Predator might drive to hunt dinosaurs, really, really big dinosaurs.
Regardless it looks miles better then the jet from last time and I might even buy this one.
Chaos Prime
Well that's not really saying much.
But the more I look at the tank mode. The more I am liking it.
I'm just hoping that this belongs to The Fallen, and not Megs.
I think I am one one of the few who believes that Megatron should remain dead. After all he was KILLED OFF already.

Nice!! Thanx for the pics. Finally some good news. That Megatron form rocks!! I cant wait to buy him.
Baird
Me too. It'd make sense, even though this incarnation of Megatron holds humans in contempt, to take an earthern form since he is vastly outnumbered and outgunned (he got smashed by the F-22s) on this planet by both the Autobots and humans.

I haven't read the entire thread, but isn't it possible that this Megatron design is intended for some sort of back-story sequence set on Cybertron?
Such a thing was hinted at in a recent interview, but they were very cagey about revealing details:
I find the various Megatron = The Fallen theories quite plausible and interesting, but this may be something else to consider until more is revealed.
I think it's very likely that there will be some scenes on Cybertron, there's only so much mythology you can cover with scrolling text and narration.

In the words of Mr. Bay-

I hope "The Fallen" Is the Ice Cream truck ROFL! I woish they would release the list of chracters and their altmodes like they did in the first one, but they probably wont be doing that till next year. Hope we see some Soundwave concepts soon. SPOILERS if soundwave brings Megatron back to life, throught what is rummored, mabey soundwave also has a vehichle database or somthing from cybertron ad lets megatron scan the most destructive cybertronian vehichle? Gah I dunno, ill just have to see the movie.

transtech lord megatron…wish to see the real finish work of megatron!
DarkKnightPrime
Compared to cybertronian tech we do, JERK! Really its people like you who make these jerky, kink ass coments that start shit. Do you get some kind of high of being a laptop gangster?
