    I'm not sure why, but I don't mind the headsculpt. He looks like he pooped himself and ran out of diapers...

    A smirk might have been more fitting for him though, but I still want him!

    You both know that I meant in scale with the BW MP's. Stop it.

    Seeing title and pics: Yesss.

    Seeing size: Nooo.


    The Transmetal design s my favourite incarnation of BW Megatron. I want that design to lead my BW Predacons. Sadly, the original figure is a bit small (old ultra class would be perfect = MP Primal size) and of course very fragile. I was rally hoping for a 3rd party version. MMC might deliver, but this looks great. If only it were bigger.

    Oh well, likely still going to buy. I like BW characters to be small so it does fit nicely with the rest of the non-BW collection.

    Why would you assume this is fragile?

    Not this one, the original. (Although truth be told, I have through experience in the past not much confidence in Toyworld. Not in their products and especially not in their "you're F'd" customer service.)

    Legends scale Beast Wars figures are PERFECT to scale with G1 Masterpiece figures. I know I\'ve wanted a legends scaled BW Megatron to pair up with a MP sized Optimus.

    I like it, the head seems a bit small and the head sculpt isn't quite as good as I'd like but overall I'm quite impressed. The more 3P Beast Wars offering the better!

    Toyworld. Please. Release something. ANYTHING. I want a decent amount of what you have to offer but with roughly 800 figures revealed in various stages without a single release I'm getting a tad impatient

    Yep as I said the legends are easier to make and will come out faster.
    This looks like it will be around the Size of a Legends leader, or maybe something like Sixshot or Ultra magnus. Hard to tell with him in beast mode and Wheeljack kneeling like that.

    Was just about to say the same thing.

    Toyworld is doing just fine in my boat. They've released three decos of the Lancia Stratos Turbo mold in the last couple months. I've been quite impressed with the quality and construction and blown away with the paint apps and tampos.

    I will gladly pick up future legends scaled offerings from them.
